I hear you Dumesh, and that's why I personally would want to go with whatever the majority were using at any particular time. However, how do you reconcile your position with how it was on Live, when post-Luclin people always had the choice to enable/disable Luclin models? You never really knew for sure what people were seeing when they looked at you.

There's also a thread about how to update the world textures, so I'm curious about your views on this as well. If you want everyone to have the same visual experience (and I agree to a large degree), then what's the threshold? Should they all see the same world textures as well?

I just had to hate it. Ultimately the game was still worth playing, but that feature did diminish my enjoyment somwwhat.

I'd prefer that we all use the same texture pack, but that is a bit less of an issue, since in most cases, it is just a hi res vs low res version of the same thing (signs are easier to read... but they say the same thing) and also, there are no player choices being disregarded since the players don't own the terrain the same way they own their avatars.

I just dont understand why people want to play with "updated" graphics. If you want updated graphics go play live. This is a classic server built on nostalgia. Play it like you played it in 1999 or gtfo. If you didnt play in 1999 and claim to not have started till post luclin and new models are all you know then im sorry, you missed the best part of the game and need to re-live it like how it was ment to be.

Did you know that some EQ players pick the gear they wear based on how it looks on them instead of just the stats? Should they also GTFO in your world?

No because its a part of classic...
Im one of those people that prefer looks over stats...for the most part. I wore totemic for ever because I refused to have the leather look on a barbarian with gator legs and foremans, absolutely hate the look, so used totemic untill I could replace with other chain/plate looking items. Still using totemic legs today because the only upgrade other than pathetic leather looking legs are planar and I havent been to hate in months.

I kinda lean this way too.

The old models give the game the 'classic feel' - personally. While personally, I have nothing against the Luclin models - I did like them ok..

Since I've looked for and finally found a place to play "Classic EQ" - I will in fact, play Classic EQ!
