If people came here for a classic experience, they won't want to be twinked out and helped, will they? Otherwise, any help they get is a bonus, and while it won't close the gap on those at the top of the pyramid they can enjoy the levelling experience for what it is.

Don't want to play with twinked out players with more gear than brains? Roll a solo class, or start your own groups...pick and choose who you want.

The game is what you make of it, the only protest is coming from people that aren't at the top of the plat mountain and wish they were. So what if you have 6 manastones and 10 fungis? Having more than 1 won't affect anything in terms of levelling and raiding.
Yep!

I mean, if our timeline followed live precisely, wouldn't we be past the end of Velious already? Instead of just being loaded with PP, the people who have been around and/or who play all the time would be decked in Velious raid gear and maybe starting to do custom content. The people who currently are upset that they can't farm enough PP at hill giants to buy a fungi for their first character on the server would just be complaining that there is no one leveling in the 1-50 levels because no one makes alts cause they were all playing 1 character to try to stick with the fast release of content or something.
