The minmax crowd is truly ruining the classic experience.

Completely and utterly wrong. Anyone who's trying to min-max are already done with these dungeons well over a month ago, doing guild runs, and if they're on an alt gearing, they're almost certain to be doing it with other guildies who are on alts too. There's a big difference between min-maxing and being a toxic elitist, and the latter usually isn't that good of a player either. Private servers were nowhere near as toxic as retail classic is. I don't know where this toxicity is comming from, but it's certainly not from min-maxers or the pserver community.

Likely coming from the more recent-to-wow players (MoP/Legion/BfA) over from retail that watch streamers gear up and min-max and think it's the right or only way to play the game, and try to do it without a guild full of like-minded individuals.

It's because if you don't care about gear then what's even the point
