Am I crazy or is the purpose of this server to recreate the classic experience, including all these "inconveniences"? If it is then these changes, however inconvenient, bring the server closer to its goal/purpose. If you need more in game info about your pet, maps, direction, whatever - how about you go to EQatlas and print out all those maps so you don't have to alt tab? This is what I did back in 1999, and I still have all those maps, and I still use them. Pet buff message crap - get a timer? And if all of these things are truly so bothersome to you that it makes the game not fun, why not play live and turn off all the new toon models, don't use PoK, stay in oldworld/kunark/velious stop at lvl 60 don't get AAs and cry less about why the classic server is too classic for you.
