Don't let the non-classic haters get you down, the removal of this would be fantastic. Get to see who is really good at EQ and who has to use these non-classic crutches to beat 14 year old content.

You'd ever played a tank class? Seriuosly think about it, how many post about quiting will pops up on this forum if they do this changes? it wouldnt be fun to see who is really good at EQ furom blaming. it's a big step that will have much much more impact on this community than what ever classic changes had been.

I don't understand what all the fuss is about. The goal of this server was never to make the perfect game but rather to recreate original classic EQ to the furthest extent possible. If you don't understand that then maybe you should go play WoW rather than complain about how people let you play for free on their classic EQ server.

Only problem is how long these things have been left un-cared-for and unclassic. Classic players have forgot that they were unclassic, and the fact that staff is arbitrary in implementing these changes.

For example, red server has not been able to duck to instantly cancel spell casting since its inception

blue server has always been able to duck instantly to cancel spell casting.

This is a velious era change to the game that is ULTRA basic but someone has decided that blue will get to have it easy and keep their duck to interrupt feature.

It is offensive because it is arbitrary.

Sorry your free beta experience hasn't been enjoyable.

Your refund is being processed, please standby

Future servers will have the duck issue until the appropriate time in Velious.

Mouse wheel scrolling is not classic ....

And I know how to disable it. It was chosen not to be implemented.

Oh man, make this happen

Poof item links while you're at it

THE TEARS, THEY WILL BE GLORIOUS

My own feeling is try for classic as much as is REASONABLY possible, which is what they are doing. The UI itself is not classic - unavoidably so. Hence picking and choosing of which UI game controlling features to leave in place makes some sense.

Give 'em a break, they are still following the theme of trying to be as reasonably classic as possible, annoying as it can be at times. The definition of what "reasonably classic" is, will remain in their hands. Join your own server creation project team if you want control.

Thanks for the efforts of all the devs. Btw, Haynar does much much more than apply nerfs (although I sometimes wonder if he secretly enjoys it. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] )

Item links would make a CSR nightmare, especially trading items and such.

So even though not classic, some things have to be kept to allow the server to be somewhat manageable.

When there are already 100's of petitions a day, I cannot imagine the mess that would make.

Too bad about the links. Anyone else remember walking up to vendors in east commons or gfay and having them put a bunch of bags in a trade window for you to see what they had for sale?

Good old days.

Haynar a lot of my friends on blue are dying to see classic un duckable spell casting system implemented for the last 6 or so months that it will be era correct on blue.

Ele thanks for the refund

not sure why the duck thing is such an issue to some of you (other than it was classic), all you ever had to do was jump to interrupt in classic. Damn near the same effect.
