yeah i agree with you, a community like EQ at the start will never happen again. Back then you had Fansy and a few people doing similar stuff, they were mostly doing it for entertainment, and those were 1% of the population. Now the griefers, forum questers, trainers and general assholes take up a much larger part of the community. Its not only true for Online Games, but anything thats online, forums and newsgroups are the perfect examples. At some point people realized they are now anonymous, and they started acting the way they do now, using the game/forum or whatever as an outlet to do the stuff that were unacceptable before that.
It doesn't really matter who started it, the problem is it can't be stopped.
Classic EQ, you can only try to emulate it. If you actually wanted to enjoy it, you had to be there. Its never gonna be the same again, just look at TMO, who do nothing but try to grief people off of the server. This kinda BS started in early Luclin when people started getting greedy and started cockblocking to piss off other guilds, TMO is just a lazy copy/paste of the juvenile assholes who started destroying this game in the first place
