Would vote No if you had remembered to include the poll.

The fact that instancing exists seriously detracts from the weighty-ness of the world, even if you never go to the instanced zones. Just like if all character models clipped through each other, or waypoints were added and you could teleport w/o a spell, or you could open up your bank from anywhere in the world, or death didn't leave a corpse. All of these things add to the illusion that Norrath is a real, solid world.

How do you feel about multiple servers?

I'm fine with it. Necessary if you want to maintain any sort of population control and not have instancing. Not really down for character transfers between servers since it takes away from the idea of a reputation, which I feel is very much in effect on this server.

There's no contest that instanced raid zones are a better system. But there are plenty of games that do that already. Most of us I think, myself included, are here for the classicness (totally a word) of what was and is a great game.

instancing is most certainly not the answer, it would completely kill the feel of this server. i think the tweaks someone mentions on 1st or second page is a good option, or atleast closer to the mark. instancing would make this end game so ridiculously boring the server would end up a graveyard as people get all the things they want and move on. sure, it sucks we cant access the things we want without neckbearding it, but its better than having the whole end game down like a formula in this game... with how easy and short those raid target fights our it would be devestating to the atmosphere of this game. people would just go through the rounds at 60 and be bored in a day. there is absolutely no good reason why this server should instance content.

also i dont understand why people want to wipe the server. the same neckbeards who camp things 18 hours a day are still going to be there, its just gonna get even worse because they will all need to catch back up to where they were so they will switch to 20 hour days.

The fact remains, there is no game out there that instances Classic-Velious content. There really are no options for someone who wants to kill classic powered classic content with real people outside of this server.
