We were learning an important life lesson from green server. When there is something that many people seek, there will be great competition for it.
Sometimes it helps to look beyond Sony and what they did. After all did they not release Planes of Power? But I am not convinced the great argument for what is classic or not is not simply a way to buttress a short-term one. As Richard Bartle writes:
"When a virtual world changes (as it must), all but its most experienced players will consider the change on its short-term merits only. They look at how the change affects them, personally, right now. They will only make mention of possible long-term effects to help buttress a short-termist argument. They don't care that things will be majorly better for them later if things are minorly worse for them today - it's only the now that matters."
