It sounds like the game content is 20+ years old, but the server was started < 3 years ago.

That is correct. On the official servers the event ran way back then (the extension was released in December 2000, the first Sleeper was freed in summer 2001).

Only one official server never released the sleeper.

Interestingly, one server managed to kill the sleeper.
