You're bringing this back to the picking-and-choosing classic thing. Rings could have been removed sooner if they wanted it that way. They chose to leave them in until they chose to remove it. This server is the DEVS subjective opinion of classic was.

My argument is don't leave something that isn't classic in and then take it away at a whim, when people have come to expect it and others could have used it as a crutch for much longer. We can argue about how much it really helps anyone all we want, but that is just as subjective as the discussion of how much the MQ and MySEQ users benefited from that shit.

I'll probably be fine without target rings. I dunno though because I can't get a group as an untwinked melee during raid hours (responsible adult playing time).
You obviously don't understand why this was removed now. Nilbog/the dev's have been wanting to remove maps, rings, and spell sets for a long time. However until a recent improvement it was impossible. Now they can control the client side more, so once they got that control they did what they had been wanting to do for a while. It wasn't like this entire time they could just remove these any time they wanted. A tool had to be developed for them to do this.

Which as I said, respectfully sir, is your subjective opinion.
As I doubt there is any actual evidence to back his post up it is an opinion. However I think most people will agree that this is an accurate opinion. The vast majority of people playing from OG-velious were not boxing. I honestly can't think of a single person I ran into in game during that time that was. Post Velious however I knew quite a few people that did. It sucks that your view of classic includes boxing and you don't get your version of classic but the vast majority of us weren't boxing and don't want to have boxing on this server.
