theres alot of incorrect things being said here, ill try to sort thruogh tthem.
-some people think prekunark was better because we were newbs.. and wiz thinks the point of a classic server is to 'get lost in neriak' and be a newb or something.. being a newb isnt what made pre kunark good

But you can't experience the feeling of something new by recreating something old.

you really seem to think eq classic was good because we were new to it. thats not what were trying to bring back. were trying to bring back 'the vision' tm, get rid of awfull eqlive team content etc
why cant we relive the old days? you dont think it will be a challenge? all content been spit thru? well lvl 20 used to be a challenge and it can be again.. whens the last time you tried to take on black burrow in a group of newbs in cloth and rusty weapons?
why cant magic items be leet again?
why cant a giant snake fang be a decent lowbie piercer, or why cant a warrior gawk at a minotaur axe again
why cant walking to highhold for a sharpening stone be worth your time again?
i dont know why you cant relive the old days, but i sure can if the servers there. theres plenty of content you havent expierenced in the old world. you and probly most people who posted here never did any quests besides the newbie quest armor and their epic. maybe cb belts if they were a elf lol. play a new race and talk to your guildleader, walk through your city, talk to a random npc, complete a random quest and have the outcome be worth your time and the reward not trivialized by another dev teams content .. circle of elements changes npcs names, keywords, and even adds twists to the most popular quests so there not over done- and if a kunark came out it would have to be totaly reworked to not trivialize content like it did.
theres no point in the custom servers, original eq content is gold, you cant fuck with it, i mean, when you play WR, you dont give a shit about the lore or setting and dont really care why we all start in erudin or thurg, because its still just erudin and thurg were still playing eq, but the zone connections are fuxd.
GL on trying to make something better than pre-kunark eq...
