It's about a luxury feature of the end user client... not about game mechanics.

I don't really care what people see me as, lol. I do think any time spent on unnecessary stuff is a waste...maybe later on down the road when content is pretty much wrapped up? I mean the development team here isn't a room full of paid programmers, lol.

We're already seeing some very significant options which were not available at that time, by virtue of the fact that we're using a 2005 client. Updated and improved ground textures, UI features, etc. The whole "if it wasn't there in 1999, then I don't want it" stance is already moot because of this fact.

I don't think they CAN tamper with the client. Copyright issue...and before anyone gets all fired up and runs "copyright" in another direction, the EQEMU servers are in a gray area, and the explanation of why they can run them -at least P99 -is pretty good. Tampering with the client is a clear violation...no gray area at all. They'd have to recreate their own client...something that isn't really feasible.
