4) The old bombs and bows, and explosions too, do not work on GMap's.
5) Fixing bombs, bows and explosions requires custom hit detection.
6) About 95% the old scripts/quests are incompatible with NPC Server.
7) Many of the old quests were also buggy in concept.
8) Bringing in new players is more important than making a few old players stay.
9) If it was feasible, I would prefer the old content.
Funnies:
1) People complain that I'm not being old school because I moved the start place from Sister Gertrude's to Brothers House.
2) I get more positive comments on the hit detection than negative comments.
3) I should not have ruined Supernicks by changing it without his permission, despite the fact that Supernick himself sent me the changes.
4) Every playerhouse I've tried to put on the overworld has been met with complaints of unfairness.
5) Last year (old levels) the playercount went down. This year (new hit detection), it's gone up.
The problem is that people are complaining because they wan't old Classic back. Old Classic won't happen, on several reasons - the players are gone, the playercounts is down and the levels do not work. I am working hard to try and please the greatest margin of people, and to get more quests up, but I can't just magic stuff up from my back pocket.

Why is it the only server with the abnormal hit detection? And there is a way to please everyone and get things back to how they should be, but not if your in charge and not if you wont let anyone else do anything.
More positive feedback on new hit detection than bad? I dont believe that for a second. I dont think iv ever seen anyone say anything good about it. People always log on and go "WTH is wrong with this server" Also, the old players outweigh the new ones and that is probably how it will always be.
I think the fact that you won't allow anyone to make another server to compete with yours is proof that what everyone has said worries you. If you didnt have any doubts about your server then you would have allowed it, simple as that.
