I would argue that not rooting them trivialized what should have been a pivotal classic EQ experience: it went against the goals of the project. Thus, the staff did the most classic thing possible by doing something that was literally unclassic (rooting them).
I would similarly argue that making guilds have to raid Hate ... as countless classic sources show, that's what people did back in '99-'01 ... is worth eliminating a safe spot (that no one has shown to be classic either).

Everything staff has done that has gone away from a 1:1 classic sandbox is against the project. They should reevaluate their life choices, but it doesn't mean we should keep making unclassic changes in service of pushing a specific idea of what one person feels is classic. Create the 1:1 sandbox and let emergent gameplay happen.
