I implore the staff to stick to their vision and ignore those who would play moon cats if given half a chance.

I mean, don't the rest of you ever just get bored? I see changes like this and I'm excited to see how we will adjust to the new restrictions and manage to play without the old crutch. I guess if you are a hyper power gaming min/max bard/chanter type of guy this is just rage inducing or something.

You think because people don't want to have to fumble click mobs that they want instanced raids* and whatever other garbage came in the later expansions? I don't think people on the other side of your argument are asking for that. I certainly am not.

I think he is referring to the fact that THIS is where it starts. One quality of life change is where it all starts to fall apart.

I'm not asking for anything that hasn't been here for the life of the server. And the server is running strong. Perhaps others are, but not I.

And again, the blue server is beta for the green server.
The vision for this project has always been to get it as classic as possible.

I am not sure where the logic in your argument lies.

I like your logic.

Bring back halfling hybrids. Until they were removed they were in for the life of the server.

Having to click makes the game more difficult which means it’s an important change. Stop asking for the game to be easier and embrace the challenge.

I'm not asking for it to be easier. It's been that way, so if anything, i'm asking for it to be the same. But I'm not kidding myself thinking I actually get a vote. It's merely an opinion. I can choose to play with the changes or not. Pretty simple.

The slippery slope is very real around here yes. We see the arguments constantly like "because this other non classic thing exists then you should give me back extra hotbars what's the big deal?". The big deal is they have an idea for what they are trying to create, if they don't stand on their convictions for what's best versus what's popular then there isn't a point to what they are doing anymore.

This isn't a live retail game, we aren't customers. Is someone's pet project, someone's hobby. Our ease of gameplay doesn't trump what THEY want to do at all, and its really pretty rude the way some people act towards the devs about this stuff.

OP was pretty polite but at the end of the day there's two sides to this: "Please leave *mechanic* in because its harder and super annoying without it" VS "We did this because it better matches the era we are emulating". If you can't see why the player's side of things is irrelevant in light of what the project has set out to do with the server, I don't know what to tell you.
