I think the voting options are biased anyway. Your options are either "yes this is serious i play hard" or "no this isn't serious i don't give a crap".
For me, i play pretty hard, i enjoy it, and my time is important. But i'm totally out of the whole drama/argument/bitching thing because i am very aware that we are playing on a 10 year old game. Something about that prevents me from getting bitchy about anything.
So you need an option "Yeah i care, but this IS a 10 y/o game, we could stand to take things a little less seriously." - which i believe is what most proponents of the 10 y/o argument mean.
Maybe it's just that you've misunderstood their intent that you dislike it so much, cos i've used this phrase in cases of extreme drama, and all i mean is - hey, calm down a little, this isn't life or death. We play ANY mmo for fun and people get overly obsessed, but for me an emu server of a 10 year old game i almost feel stupid for getting worked up.
And that's a good thing!
