I think the real issue that people have is that there are a number of non-classic changes in place on the server, most notably the Ivandyr's Hoop nerf (but no nerfs to Soulfire or Reapers), FTE messages, and variance on raid mob spawn times.

It doesn't make very much sense to have strict adherence to "classic, warts and all" when there are also changes made specifically by the devs that are non-classic.

If you're going to remove buff timers, why keep FTE messages in place? It's essentially the same thing - additional information for the player that was not available during the timeline of the server (or ever, for FTE messages).

Agree with this post +1.

I think these non-classic changes are to make a more good environment for players to play, thus NOT for the server to be more classic.

So what's the goal of this server and what the dev want? I guess it's not to be strictly CLASSIC, but keeping the spirit of CLASSIC, to keep peoples feeling that it is a classic everquest for most of the content.

Classic is classic, no one can go back to 1999, there's no time mechine, no 56k modem,no 64m memory,no pentium cpu. So let the server be ,let the ui be. It's already very classic now, at least most players here feel so.
