"Living in the past" is a quite demeaning expression considering these players, including me, are only looking for a better gaming experience. In this case, our opinion is that the '07 version had a better gaming experience than that of the current. This might only be my opinion, but any improvement in gaming experience is a step forward. Don't you agree?
I also fail to see your connection between how "we move forward in life not backward" and how developers are supposed to keep their players content.
Additionally, that launching a '07 version will have any implications on your game's development (which can better be described as impediment...) is quite a lie, considering that the '07 version will require an extra $5 - $15 something fee (which I would be very happy to pay!). I'm pretty sure this will cover for the new development team and even more.
Of course, this is based on the presumption that this proposal won't be favoured by 500k or more players. However, I find this quite implausible myself, as I recognize us oldschool players - or, as you prefer, "people living in the past" - as a vast minority. If this propsal DOES get 500k votes or more and your game won't see as many ****** updates that you so highly cherish, your argument would appear to me as strikingly egoistic.
Furthermore please don't base your arguments on sentimental life philosophy. At least not when it comes to such trivial matters as gaming.
Love, and repent
