Pretty snippy for a GM. But really you would have to be insane to think I am going to read through every single post to double-check and cross verify to make sure the things I am saying haven't been said.
But here is my rebuttal none the less and if it makes you want to ban my ass, so be it. Every single update that you guys put into this game, every single time the server goes down, is to make it more and more classic. Every single change you guys make for little quests, or face changes, or vendor names, or any of the other numerous things you guys change is to make it more and more classic. Some of those changes effect a lot of people, and some of them effect very very few. But they still get changed in the name of being classic. The one thing that should be at the top of that list, because it is the ONLY thing that effects every single person in this game, is the raid mobs. It is the source of all the drama, it is the source of all the joy, it is the source of all the competition, and it is the largest source of excitement and harbours more fond memories for more players then any other aspect of the game that you are helping to re-create.
If you are willing to put in the time to fix something so tiny that it may only effect 15-30 people I would expect that you would be worried about fixing the one thing that effects every single person and in one of the biggest ways possible. Ofcourse I personally think that spawning them individually each time would be worth it when it effects so many people but that is my two cents. But if you think people are quitting the server because Canloe Rusback is now only accepting single belts or because vendors do or do not sell bat wings, it is you that is insane. You could find a programmer on this server that could be dedicated ONLY to spawning mobs during server downs in a second flat if you needed to. But if you dont think its necessary to make THIS aspect of the game classic then there is nothing that we can do.
Try to remember that I actually do appreciate this server, and the work that goes into it, but I have to call a spade a spade and i dont see what makes sense about leaving the end game the way it is.
