Damn, 17 guilds have cleared Vex Thal. Instances are incredible, allowing all these super neckbeard and dirty casual guilds to do the same content. Maybe eventually P99 will get some of that fast respawn / instances raid content.

Double DKP fucks people. If you're already geared and don't need any items, your not spending any of the double DKP you've earned (i.e. Saving it for PoP) . People who need the items still are bidding and bidding larger amounts due to extra DKP. Creating a larger margin between people who are semi new versus vets.

But the other thing that happened, it seemed to become harder to develop good rulesets and content for that approach to an mmo. It cost 50 bucks to switch servers, and apps like ACT allowed one to submit detailed data to any uber guild wanted to apply to. Talent started tilting toward a handful of guilds. Plus then, eq2 started to suck once they got rid of avatars. So instancing is a blessing in high pop games. But maintaining high pop is pretty impossible anymore, imo. Which is why phinny will crash in pop after GoD. We will just do the newer server, or emulator. Because after GoD? Why?

Let me clarify what I meant.
Instances solve some problems, and make an in-demand game easier to play. A worldwide stat system allows one to measure epeen on status boards as opposed to on-server. But eq2 really fell apart once avatars were removed, which were the only remaining contested uber-content in eq2. For many, some remnant of competitive gameplay, on-server, was all that kept them aboard. Instancing ultimately kills an mmo. It is a bad solution to an abstract problem. IMO, EVE seems to be the only game to solve the problem -- just have one game world. Sadly, EVE is kind of very boring.
