well here’s the thing post bc maybe even though wrath your server rep mattered. if you tick of your people on your server your toon was toast. it’s one of the unspoken reason when blizz want to reveal people names on the forums people were against the. they didn’t want to risk getting bad rep.
people now like to say there is no etiquette but back in the day there was. you didn’t need everything, you shared mobs when you could and if word got out that you didn’t play by the rules you had might as well transfer your gold and delete the toon because you would not be taking it raiding or going to dungeons.
right now classic is bloated there are to many players to actively keep track of every rando but once the numbers drop you will see this kind of server rules return.
