There are a whole lot of snobs on every side who think their way is the only way, who will blast anyone who sees it another way, and who just can't let it go. We'd all be better off if everyone would agree to disagree. This kind of stubbornness and hostility hurts everyone more than a video game update that some people won't use.
To extend your restaurant analogy, you're a patron who really likes the new menu, and you're mad at me for coming back because the restaurant also started serving my favorite sandwich again. Don't you think that's kind of silly?
Wow, well someone's a bit mad. You clearly don't understand what I mean and I get that I may not have been as explicit as may have been possible, but here, let me try again.
You don't have to like the new stuff. In fact, go ahead and leave if you don't like it because, you're correct, you have no reason to stay if the one dish you love is the only reason you were there. But for many people, combat wasn't the whole game, including most of this clan. Additionally, it's not those that simply leave the restaurant after giving it a few tries that I am accusing of negatively impacting the community, it's those that stand outside the goddamned restaurant day after bloomin' day and yell for the owners to "give it back", "we pay, we say", and refuse to respect the authority and decision-making of the owners.
Maybe you're one of those people, maybe you're not, and I am more than willing to admit that there are exceptions to my generalization, but when so much of the community that got their panties in a wad because of the EOC is returning and STILL causing an uproar that their combat system is no longer supreme and it isn't exactly the same as before, it's hard to ignore the fact that this could end up being a detriment to the community simply because a vocal minority decides to ruin everything.
As I said, I know people who preferred the old stuff, but didn't create an absolute shitstorm because something they enjoyed was gone.
Change happens. Move on.
