The goal of this project isn't to cater to the individual and make life easier for you, it's to create a classic EverQuest. The abilities you listed are not classic, therefor will not exist, unless it existed between Vanilla and Velious.

If you think any of the abilities you listed were functioning between 1999 and 2001, create a bug report with evidence supporting your claims.

Most people don't understand the 'its classic' thing. The purpose of this server is not to be a fun server for most people who want a kind of classic experience. The purpose of this server is to be EXACTLY classic for the current timeline period, including annoying and stupid parts. An exact replica, as far as possible. Nobody cares ( in terms of changing the server ) if a certain classic feature is stupid or annoying, or even broken, or not. At least, this is my understanding of it.

There's some things that are really hard to get exactly classic, like hidden calcs about AC and various other things that were never obvious. Other things, such as how or if a particular slash command works, are easier to do.

Obviously, the server is not 100% classic in features or mechanics.

The frustrating part is that not all the features are benign (like item links in chat). There are some crucial aspects that are NOT classic, just look at the raid scene issues we've had for years...


Failing technical limitations, there's absolutely no reason that most of what he listed, could not be used.
