I've heard all the stupid reasoning behind it, but the reasoning holds little value when you consider that after all this time, Classic has a total of four quests. If I remember correctly, the NPC-Server was added sometime around February of 2004. I'm certain that 1 or 2 dedicated scripters could have converted a portion of Graal the Adventure that would lead to more content than is currently present.
Can someone please intervene and set the server straight? I don't even know the last time Master Storm was online and setting direction for the Development Team.
Can Stefan and Unixmad allow for the Graal the Adventure levels to be converted by someone else separate of the current management on Classic? I (don't) understand the need for coded hit detection and movement, but I'm sure someone could use the systems that were done for Classic and have a working Graal the Adventure within a reasonable time frame.

Agreed, the last Graal Classic/The Adventure before GS2 was awesome. It had much space to explore and still had stuff left from early stages of Graal The Adventure. Nothing went into the trash.
Classic would possibly get back some of their players because of sentimental value. Who has forgotten the Blue and Red trident you could find. Or Fox building that had secret ways to go everywhere in graal city. Destiny had a purpose (it wasn't just some random place where half the houses you can't enter). It had the gravity fortress! Babord had a purpose too and a good quest.
I don't know why we start with 6 lives instead of 3 as it should be, and I don't know why we start with a LVL 2 sword when we should have to do a quest to get it. I believe it was found in lizardons temple in early stages. What happened to collect all graals? Where's Midas golden realm? God, I miss those times. Too bad everything has to change.
I've heard that Thor Fryhtan is developing towards a more known Graal Classic but in a new storyline and new style. Well, I like the old style and the old storyline. Which makes it classic. I like all the work Tyhm did. Rehire him and re-add all levels pre-2005/GS2 and convert the scripts.
I hope I made my point in this post. And I certainly hope that anyone just doesn't skip through this post just because it's a bit long.
