All they need is a little marketing, and people would play. SoE's arguement has always been that they don't believe people will play on a classic server. They are obviously wrong. Also, 100-200k a year is nothing to scoff at, especially if you're talking about 1,000-2,000 people playing, that'd be 2x-4x as much.
I've always argued on EQ Official boards that, the reason why people can't play classicly on live servers in their own special guilds, is because there are way too many people who wouldnt know where to go to get the best classic experience. I've always said once SoE puts out an OFFICIAL server for everyone to focus on, the interest would grow. Even now, years later, you couldn't even goto a live server and play classicly if you tried.
