Pre-Abyssea server.

I just recently came back to the game after an extrended break, i left before Abyssea came out. Now the new 99 cap and fast leveling is great and all, but after the general buzz of duo'ing/trio'ing HNM's and being able to defeat basically anything in the game wears off, i've come to realize alot has been lost, it's impossible to have groups of people working together, striving for the impossible now.
I think there should be one server, for those who charrish the old way, not saying get rid of all these add-ons for everyone, i'm sure many adore them. But there should be a Pre-Abyssea server with good old fashion level 75 cap. I know if there was one nobody one Sylph would ever see me again and i'm sure there are others who feel the same, the game was great the way it was, having to work for what you needed, not hitting max level in two days. for instance, I started leveling monk, I had never touched a DD job before, was all mages when i left, I got to 99 in two days, completely skilled up in another three, and geared up in less than a week, now is my monk the greatest you've ever seen? no. but i can solo things in Abyssea with extreme ease, and I dont know a thing about the job or any real DD jobs at that, which i'm possitive 90% of the population doesn't know the true potential of there jobs now.
There's no heart in FFXI now, no determination, hard work, or effort. How are you supposed to feel accomplished finnishing something in a week that used to take 6-8 months of hard work to do before? I for one can't.
Enough of the rambling on of this old fogy, basically to sum it all up, i think it'd be great to have a server or two set aside for the old ways, six man parties working and truely learning what there doing, not something a 7 year old can beat.
Feel free to post comments on the matter, maybe if enough people agree with this idea something will be put into action about a level 75 cap server.


EDIT: I've started a petition, the way I see it the only problem SE should have with this idea is the simple fact of not enough people joining such a server to make it worthwhile, so the petition I've created has a goal mark of 4,000 signatures, the average number of people that were online at any given time back in 2006 when the game was a challenge. the average number i see online now is roughly 2,000. I'll subit it to SE directly when the goal of 4,000 has been reached, then they should have no doubt that such a server would in fact be successful and not just a waste of time and resources.
Here's a link to the petition:

Sign me up!! I have avoided Abyssea thus far for that exact reason. I came back and was expecting anything but this. I'm half tempted to not do the 80 cap at all and pretend the game never changed.

Pfff... if you want to do something like this, do it right.

Single server, max level 50, no expansions, only jobs are WAR MNK THF RDM BLM WHM.
Cannot move to or from this server, only create new character.

Also, petitions? They NEVER worked.
