I can understand their desire. Some of my best gaming was on non EA Ultima Online shards that ran the version of the game before it was "ruined" or many thought it was.
That's how I learnt to code! Running a runuo server :-) it was amazing to have a fully fleshed out world and see my
changes effect players immediately.
I doubt I would know how to program at all if it was not for that server.
