Do the Legacy Servers Have an Elitism Problem?

[Auteur]

Preface, shout out to the GM who handled my support ticket (great customer service compared to any F2P MMO).

So found an OT from a legacy server in DF that refused to do A12N and immediately AFK after seeing the gear of the MT (the OT claimed the MT's IL244 was too low). I'm thinking, wow you got to be kidding considering my own personal experience: I cleared both A12N and Soph EX with the bare minimum of IL 235. I got to level 60 for the first time last week. Now cleared Soph EX a bunch more times (big shout out to the pug group on Gilgamesh), got soph EX bow, good to go.

But if I were around people like this OT, players like me would have never gotten the chance because of a quick inspection pre-start and then a "AFK; IL too low." This to me begs the question, do the Legacy servers have an elitism problem? Being one of the original servers likely lends to a lot of hardcore/day one players that have these undesirable traits.
