I think losing globals will hinder the community that have already been used to it thus far. The thing that was so terrible about it was the spammer(s), now that they have been silenced, I see no problems.
As far as it not being classic, thats fine because we dont have the popularity that existed in those days. EC tunnel was great and all, but the thing that made EQ so great was the ability to 2-box and game play that goes along with it. EQ had what WoW lacks, and that's the ability to contribute in a fun way with 2 classes at the same time without becoming a liability to other group members.
I agree with what Phallax said today, if we lose global channels, then we should gain the ability to 2-box. Not being able to play 2 characters at the same time takes away from what I loved about EQ just as globals take away from others' experience of EC tunnel.
