I encourage you to post the evidence about the /guildinvite [mob_name] and the /tell [mob_name]. Let's just be impartial and let the dev team decide the direction they wish to take.

Guildinvite officer tracking is mentioned here, thread from August 2002:

I'm not sure when/if they fixed the sending a tell thing, but it certainly existed up to at least kunark time period...
Also remember the syntax being a little strange on some of them. Like you would have to put underscores in the name, like "an_evil_eye". Another quirk that was in EQ semi-related to this is if you try to trade an item with a mob and you were too far away, you'd always get the mobs proper name and if it was a generic mob it would look something like " A_froglok_fisherman04 is too far away to trade with" or something like that. Note the underscores and the number. There might have been an underscore beofre the number I can't remember. | ||

Relevant thread here from August 2001.

It seems there was a definitely short-ish range to /pet attack at that point, which supports your theory so far Sunderfury. I imagine "PvP range" meant within range to cast/attack? Bolt spell range would be a reasonable radius imo. Just my interpretation. | |||

Althought it wont let you /assist your target if his target isnt within range of you.

I mean honestly it seems like this is an exploit that could easily be argued for even without evidence given some of the other things done on this server that aren't classic but who knows. | |||

Of course this is all PVP so could be something weird with those rules, but usually PVP rules limited what you could do versus PVE rather than giving a bonus. | |||

Things like targeting code are less likely to be PvP specific I think. But I'll keep looking and see if I can find a PvE mention.

i think it's certainly probable that the /pet attack never actually existed. I have zero memory of it ever existing and being in a guild competing for raid targets I was in the business of knowing these sorts of quirks. But the /tell mob name was certainly around awhile. However it could be that /tell was so much easier that i never bothered using the /pet attack even if I knew about it at some point.

Reading more of that thread it looks like I'm wrong. They are talking about PvP Level Range:
