My first reaction when I heard about this idea from somewhere was to flinch but I wonder if it could work? Since it would be a version that is not the current one, offering it as premium content almost sounds plausible. If there was a fee (only paid one time per account) required to make characters on the server, it would be a minor annoyance but the cost could actually have benefits. Under this system, when a bot gets caught they would actually be gone. Whoever was behind the bot could make another but they would have to keep paying to do so.
If the price was right, I believe that there could be interest in such a server. The version might not even matter very much. (although I think it would be better if people had a chance to vote on which one to have a hand in choosing the fate of the server) Most likely with no updates except for bug fixes and events.
PreBB + a Paywall
What do you think? How much would people be willing to pay and/or what would be a good price? Should it come with perks or should it just be for gaining access?
Good idea?
Not great idea?
