Instance a server with Luclin and char copy over. Assure people it is a real legit server and not a temporary.
I bet the nerds hating on classic Luclin (2002 shits classic) are in the extreme vocal minority. The forums have a lot of autists on them that can't stomach the idea of change, so any anti-Luclin sentiment should be taken with a large grain of salt without a poll. (Hint: poll was already done, Luclin + PoP broke the next highest option by 200-300 votes. Someone else can dig the link again).
The content of Luclin is largely considered the Golden Age of EQ. The design was the largest project SOE had ever undertaken to date, and it showed in the zones and textures.
You shouldn't deny people development on a 2002 expansion on the basis that 30 autists have poor recollections of the content and a biased preconception of what is classic and what isn't. The forum poll taken last year hit the multi-hundred votes for Luclin.

You mean this poll?

In that one "progress to Luclin" had 121 votes. "Open a server for 'other options' " had 62. 230 people selected non-Luclin things.
Nobody is denying things on the basis of poor ad hominem attacks. People were there, and they made their own decisions, absent any perceived characteristics you ascribe them.
PS. "largely considered" = weasel words. I personally know of 0 people (except maybe you?) who consider Luclin the "golden age of EQ". YMMV obviously.
