Take a look at the mxc private server section and compare it to the 2007-2008 board. (maxcheaters.com/archive)
servers managed to get pretty much nowhere except for a few new java mods and slightly better packs, except now there are prob 3x as many morons opening l2jfrozen servers (like the guy above me) with the EXACT same features or they make some attempt at reviving l2 gold/pride in hopes of striking gold only to get nothing but a pile of shit (like their server)
as humans we fear what we dont understand and dont like to accept change also i feel as if the average l2j interlude player isnt mentally capable of playing on somewhat complex servers even tho i plan on developing one (o well guess we'll see)
interlude is extremely flawed and lets face it no server can satisfy everybody
i appreciate somewhat insightful posts although it is put to waste with the current state of l2 private servers
