Default New server idea

I had this idea, I would make it myself, only problem is... I dont have the hardware, Network power and know how to do it my self, so I thought maybe I should throw it up here and maybe someone would like to do it for themselves... I know I would totally play it.

-classic... no Expansion, no Iksars.. Halfling rangers ect..ect..

maybe progression, like in this picture...

-EXP bonus (where you can still play casually and have a capped character or 2)

-soloing is grouping and grouping is raiding

-1player can split pulls and kill them all by themselves... 6 players untwinked can take out naggy or vox

-2-boxing only (like Shards of Dalaya) maybe an IP block like P99

these are pretty much the rules, I think it would be a lot of fun and if I had the ability to do it, I would... anyone able to?

Classic can be a bit too basic. The level cap, lack of options, even lack of zones. I think Alkabor Project is doing just that now and they do have a following. I guess what I am saying is the void has been filled. Many people get their fix on p1999 or Alkabor.

Unfortunately, Progression servers are also played out. One or two will pop up every once in a while but they will fizzle out within a few weeks to a few months. If your wanting to make the next big thing, its more than likely going to have to be custom.

There is a plethora of information on how to do this in the forums. I'd say start with the repack, then go from there.
