So in short, the devs had a choice between A) ignoring whiners (and letting people fight over spawns at launch .... or, hindsight being 20/20, starting with Teal at launch), or B) again ignoring whiners (and letting people level a little faster than they should) ... or C) making Green unclassic from the start.

They chose option C, which with the benefit of hindsight seems like the wrong choice to me personally ... but you certainly didn't hear me complaining about improved spawn rates when Green launched either [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
Tellin said in another thread that at least the belt turn ins now reflect classic values and were incorrect before
