Wouldn't you rather have people able to be genuine rather being in a situation where they're either forced to tolerate each other, buy a server transfer, or outright quit the game? Plus it's not like those small communities were all that great. In many ways they created echo chambers, and harmful cliques that picked who they felt like allowing into the main community and who they didn't (which still happens, I've been kicked on sight from the Marilith NN for leaving certain other communities). I doubt issues such as stalking and harassment were non-existent back then either. Imagine being trapped on a single server with your stalker.

I probably wouldn't be on this game if I had to play under those conditions. There's too much nostalgia around those conditions and the game needs to adapt and move forward, not go backward.
The old lady on the walker had me rolling. But I agree with you. It's easy to say "Hey I'm going to fix everything!" When the reality is people will only do the bare minimum. It's why we're here. Why would I try to establish on Dynamis when I can just DC travel and play on Aether? Morons all of them. Every developer that didn't see it and every player who denies it.
