Well put.

I will add that it takes time to make all the necessary changes to the original code base that makes the server classic-like. That means some random asshat can always say, "Well this isn't classic so why even try to make anything classic?". Obviously, that is a nonsense question, and should never be used as justification for desired non-classic changes.

you made this statement without explaining any reasons why. in light of certain things being intentionally non-classic (such as pet aggro and pet weapon delays, ivandy's hoop etc) could you please elucidate? thanks.

This is the "lets get as close to classic as possible server" the "lets fix the dev's mistakes server" has yet to be created.

we've already crossed the rubicon there. certain exploits like being able to make tradeskill items that sold to vendors for more than it cost to make them were never in this game in the first place. was the server better off for it? absolutely. doesn't change the fact that it wasn't classic.
