I'm not going to quit...
My point is that while being classic, this project has its own opportunity to make things in eq better. saying "issue X or Y wasn't fixed until 6 months after velious release" seems pretty stupid when its a known issue from 15 years ago.
For example, if this project ever opened Planes of Power (which I did enjoy alot) I would hope that Plane of Knowledge and those damn port books would be removed from p99 files. It was a game/port class ruiner.
Now that I can no longer see a light blue pet, (now green) I reclaim energy on a light blue (perfectly acceptable) pet because I no longer have the ability to know the strength of my own pet. Light blue was an IMPROVEMENT to classic. So in the effort to be more classic, the functionality of the game goes backwards?
Why not cunduct a community poll on border line issues like this? One Criteria for polling an idea:
Is it classic? Not really.
Does it positively impact the functionality of classic EQ without detrimentally effecting nostalgic eq? Yes.
Love the server and the tight community. Please keep it going. Considering that its a tight and microscopic community in the grand scheme, I think collaboration within this community should be a driving factor. Rather than simply saying "Verant did this 15 years ago so we will too".
