Nostalgia is such a freaking big deal to people, it clouds their judgement.
The old MS was fu'cking awful. It was fun to spend DAYS for a level? It was fun to do nothing else with your entire life? It fun to tirelessly and mindlessly grind mobs, PQ or otherwise? These things are not fun. You remember them as fun because you had a few good experiences, and they overrode the massive amount of non-good ones in your memory. You remember the times everyone PQ'd with you and you had a good time. I've had those in new MS. New MS didn't prevent those things from being possible.
I'm so absolutely sick of the ridiculous influx of "WE NEED OLD MS BACK!" No, we don't. Old MS was horrible. There were so many problems. The only reason you don't remember them is because of your nostalgia.
New MS isn't without its problems. That doesn't mean Old MS is better.
