First, I would like to thank the community for its responses to this thread, at least those in the community who care to provide meaningful responses and commentary.
Second, thank you to Aeolwind for responding with at least some effort and meaningful, item-by-item consideration. I would add, also, that I did not intend any kind of double-talk at the end of my post, although it obviously came across that way to some. I am sincerely thankful for the server we have that is at least fun to play on.
But I would ask Aeolwind, or other developers actually doing things to move the server forward: can you answer my question? Once the myriad bugs and non-classic elements are eventually removed/mitigated/worked around/whatever, is there the possibility of some kind of relaunch for those of us interested in a functionally more classic server, or more preferably the possibility of a second server? If this is to be an eventuality, I would be willing to devote effort and time to run down each and every bug or inconsistency and report them individually on the bugs forum. I don't generally waste my time on forums as I generally see them as worthless trolling logs, but if hard work and reporting really will lead to the creation of a classic server by the developers, that would alter things.
Again, I do enjoy playing on the server, that's why I am here. I can enjoy the current Semi-Classic server, but I would love a Classic server more.

I believe they are doing everything in their power to get it as close as possible to live as they can. There is talks of starting a new server once they release Kunark, and then Velious, but no one really knows.
If you can prove tons of bug information it would be MUCH loved. We will never be 100% classic. We just won't, but we can get it 90% of the way there if everyone chips in. I was young when I played EQ, but there are a few things I do remember (such as the faction hit on a quest I put in the bug forum), and comment on when I see it's wrong.
Complaining gets us no where. If you really want this to be a classic server then do your part by reporting what is wrong. Without reporting what is wrong there is no way we can count on the small number of people working on this (on their spare time mind you) to be able to get everything.
