Suggested, takes twice as long to bugfix on Classic while making and applying fixes to NPCServ Classic. These are the options. Shutting down and/or neglecting Classic is not acceptable for any span of time (or at least, any span exceeding maybe a week). Manually converting Classic to NPCServ in a week is impossible. That leaves automatically converting Classic to NPCServ or gradually converting Classic to NPCServ. Since it seems evident Stefan's never gonna make the latter a possibility (and in all fairness no matter how simple it is, it'll only be used once), that leaves it up to Com's miraculous scripting abilities and the Graal->NW converter that we JUST got after asking around for months.
So Kai, you can't say we've been making a concious effort NOT to convert to NPCServ. Since G2K1 came out it's been on the table, but the MEANS have never existed. Otherwise imma hold it against you that you've never travelled through the sun on a weekend. It's always been an option, but the means have never existed. And shame on you for asking for them!
