Even though I wasn't entirely serious, you do raise some good points. I just always have a concern for how long folks' patience will hold out.
Well I think the devs will hold out just fine, even if they lose patience, but a lot of the problem with the whiners on live is that the devs on live actually do need their customers to keep their jobs, so they do need to listen to some degree to their customers. The devs here don't have that problem. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

This server's direction is and has always been to keep things as close to classic as is within their power, so even if they lost patience, I could only see just mass bannings, and more moderation over things just being changed in game to accommodate the whiners. I just can't see the devs changing things just because people want it a certain way. The only time they change something is if there's strong evidence proving that what they implemented (or haven't yet) is or is not truly classic. The moment they're convinced that they're right, or the bug report is right is when something will be changed, but ONLY if it's true to classic. I've noticed that there are a lot of things that were reported properly (through the bugs forum) and in a logical, organized manner with evidence, and proof (via old forum posts from 1999-2001 era, etc) and those things have actually been changed, or are on the list to being changed.
