I'm playing classic EQ1 because it's pretty rad and brings some great stuff to the table that you don't tend to find anymore. But despite that, classic EQ1 wasn't 100% perfect. This poll isn't going to accomplish anything and the penalty will stay, but personally I'm totally in favor of a few smart changes here and there like hybrid exp penalty removal and saving spell sets. I'd also love a higher group exp bonus since people solo way too much on P1999 compared to the old days, which sometimes makes it feel like those modern MMOs that I don't care for.
I'm at least glad that we do get a few QoL features such as item linking, the newer UI, receiving tells while zoning, and not needing to stare down a spellbook to meditate. A lot of the somewhat annoying elements of oldschool EQ actually made the game better in the long run, but these are not among them.
