I'm hoping we stop at Velious. It's after that when everything got crazy non-classic.

Eh, I hope we go through Luclin/PoP, maybe with a few slight changes. I actually really enjoyed many of the Luclin zones for the short time I played in them.

AA's were a *good* idea that was implemented horribly. WoW's talent system was a better evolution of that idea because it allowed more customization of the character - and despite many complaints in WoW, there were always a number of competitive PvP and PvE builds within the same class (or small variants in point choice that made a huge difference), not just one or two.

The devs really didn't understand or care about the ramifications of creating a second tier of grinding on top of the first. The talent system made people economize and compare values, not just grind for the best AA's first, grind for all other AA's next, etc...But that point has been belabored to death on these forums.

Regardless, i'd rather repeat some of the mistakes made in the past instead of completely stopping at Velious.

I respectfully disagree, Messianic.

I would not enjoy seeing Luclin/PoP content get implemented. I can understand it from a nostalgic point of view, but so much changed with Luclin and PoP that Velious and Kunark, which were mysterious and awesome, became novelties.

It will stop at Velious if you quit playing once they release a further expansion. Duh.

As long as they give us plenty of time to wear Velious thin, I don't mind in the least if they eventually proceed into the next expansions. A time will come when we're sick of Velious, probably two or three years after the content has first been cleared, and then it'll be a choice between continuing the server despite its initial intentions or letting it die. We're already getting to the point where most people who missed the classic experience and were ever likely to care about an emu server have already played here. Sooner or later we'll stop getting new players at any meaningful rate while more and more players will quit once they've had their fill. If this server is stuck at Velious in 2015, it'll be with a skeleton playerbase. Who honestly wants to play Velious for several years? Most of you will have finished playing here by then, in which case you shouldn't care either way, but further expansions might get you to come back just to see if it's fun again. The game wasn't entirely shit until after PoP, and Luclin/PoP does have some excellent raid content.

A melee group with completely shit gear, perhaps. Otherwise...no.
