fadetree you missed my overall point
Well, actually, I think you are missing mine. Why are they so excessively determined to remove non classic features even when they can be duplicated and even when they are a pain? Because : THATS THE PURPOSE OF THE SERVER, TO PERFECTLY DUPLICATE EVERYTHING ABOUT THE EQ OF THE TIMELINE. Period, no exceptions. The purpose of the server is to ENFORCE period limitations and everything possible about the way EQ worked then. The purpose of the server is not to be a fun place to play semi-calssic stuff that has the good parts left in, or to play classically if you want to. Whether it manifestly affects gameplay or not is not even a consideration.

And by 'they', I mean the devs, not the players. I am trying to explain their position, not to argue that its the one I like or that I think is the best.

*edit* of course, this is my understanding of the situation. Maybe a dev could elaborate on whether I am right or not. And like I said, I kind of wish they would relax things a bit on that regard. And, as has been pointed out, there have been non-classic fixes made...so...anyways if they really do go all the way on these UI issues I may drop out myself.
