Well we need to stick to some stuff if we want to be called classic.
Do you know how much russians pmed me saying that its not classic, when they saw my pvp video with seraphim. I think on youtube there are even some comments.
Yes custom changes makes server funnier to play but its not always good as a commercial. Imagine when some guy start rushing or buying here char, makes him 77 to play cancer and then baaam you cant use skills on mount.
Or like it was with Fatal Counter. How many people were mad ? And even rerolled to HE.
I honestly dont care what u do with this mount because i never reach 77 but level as a pony from 40 to 76 is not fun.
