Actually, it was just as big of a problem back then if we're referring to 2.0. Peacock ore was originally a Tomes of Philosophy mat (similar to former myth mats and now soldiery mats), and there were only two dungeons that could be sped-run for philo tomes. Consider, too, that were very few ways to generate gil and repair costs were so high that people were losing money just for running dungeons. Each gil counted for something, so losing mats to a disconnect hurt - a lot - especially with how frequent they were.

That this has persisted for over a year without SE doing anything about it is a concern.
