Like people complaining about other people's concerns. Yes, I see your
point about people not being happy unless they are complaining.

Yes, I remember that, and petitioned and /feedbacked the next time I got in
the game back then. I very much appreciated the heads up, and the chance
to let my server GM's know how I felt on the issue. Thanks! :) Alas, no,
I don't have my hopes up that it will be "fixed".. its obvious that Verant
does not care what the player likes. EQ is a visual game, and a HUGE part
of it is how it looks. Simple and plain, the changes look ridiculous. I
would rather there be no animation than to have it the way it is now. /sigh...
