I wonder how many people are truly interested in playing on a server like that. Perhaps a lot, but I wouldn't be one of them. The old UI would make me want to quit. No, you can't have my stuff.
Sounds like you are on the wrong server then, that is the server goal is to be as close to classic as possible

The GMs should just make a statement to shut people up. Something like...

"If a feature is non-classic but has no conceivable influence on actual gameplay, such as item links and windowed mode, we're not wasting our precious time changing it. Certain issues also cannot be fixed because of client restrictions. Shut up."

Perhaps I am. But for the past year, I have found this approximation enjoyable, and will continue to play while it is enjoyable. But it's a game. And if the game ceases to be fun, then I'll quit. At least the first person to tell me "If you don't want classic, GTFO" said it in a nice way.

Personally I liked the classic UI but I played as a wizard and only for a very short time where that UI was the only option, not in a raid setting or even for very long in big groups.

As far as the meditation thing, I really wish that were to be fixed because Meditation was sort of like spell effects... after reaching a certain level you just got that special something as an accomplishment. Level 35 was the tits back in the day.

We may as well bring back the SOE devs, the SOE GMs and guides and support since that is really what classic is about. RIght? Right?

Screw "classic" cumbersome UI features and other crap. If it were possible, I would choose a modern WoWesque-UI to play on P99 every day of the week over even the titanium client. EQ classic was a great game because of its content, gameplay, community and novelty (and now nostalgia). It definitely had nothing to do (for me) with its cumbersome, terrible UI. I play in spite of the UI, it enhances nothing.
