I don't personally care about it, but I'm just using it in the argument about classic.

Like I said, and I'm sure you know, I am 99% happy with this server and the work you guys have done. I'm just confronting the "it's classic" and "it's not classic" argument from players answering in your guys' stead.
I can sum it up this way - the overriding intention on the part of the devs/etc to make things classic is a valid explanation, which is what I think most people mean when they make the argument. Call it a backpedal - spin - whatever - but that's what it is.

They do not necessarily mean that the server is 100% classic, therefore anything not in it is not classic, and everything in it is classic, period (as if p1999 was the gold standard for classic, and not vice versa). I don't think anyone means that unless they're being ridiculous. Of course, there is a lot of ridiculousness in the world.

However, i'll submit to "it's not classic" and "it's classic" are not entirely valid explanations or arguments, as there are often other more important reasons things are or are not "classic," as Nilbog mentioned.

Hopefully i've finally clarified myself.
