If you just freeze the game at the end of Velious era, then the server will dwindle.

Citation needed; appealing to the fear of the server shutting down isn't a wise choice nor is it a good argument for why a server designed to follow what the Classic EQ experience was, should deviate from that.
Quote:
Players are coming to this server because they want the Classic Everquest experience. They will not mind if details are tweaked here and there to improve the game. They will welcome it, actually.

1) Please do not generalize your opinions across the population of players who come to this server.
2) You do not speak for anyone but yourself.
Who are you to say what people want and don't want?

Moreover, to continue the server once the timeline runs out, there will have to be new content or shifting content anyway.

Why? There's other servers on EQEmu if you want changes like that.
Quote:
Which is why I argue that changes for the better should be made sooner rather than later.

Why do the changes even need to be made in the first place? Why does "sooner rather than later" matter when it conflicts with the goals of the project?
And your answer had best not be more doom and gloom about the end of the time-line, as that is just an appeal to fear fallacy, and I doubt any of us are interested in that.

This server will never be 100% Classic EQ, ever. Not possible. Given that such a thing is impossible, the server should strive to maintain the classic EQ experience without forcing the exact coding of how every little thing was during the actual Classic timeline. Trying to recreate the exact coding does not recreate the classic EQ experience.

Nirvana/Perfect Solution fallacy. While it can't be a perfect 100% creation down to the finest detail, that doesn't mean something needs to be changed to the timeline.
If you honestly feel otherwise, then back up your statements. At this point in the thread, I cannot see where you learned how to argue... was it 4chan? There's too many logical errors in your reasoning for this to be a serious discussion.
