Another great improvement taken for granted today.
I just don't understand why people reminisce about Vanilla from a gameplay point of view. To be truthful, from a gameplay standpoint, it was terrible. Psychologically, it is enjoyable to remember playing with friends. Sure, I had lots of fun then. Obtained several "firsts" and accomplished many legacy achievements. But, the servers were in pitiful shape compare to today's standards. You could count on a server crash every Tuesday evening. And every weekend, at least once.
Sometimes people would try and crash them on purpose!

I think a lot of old players are jaded to a lot of aspects of the game so the nostalgia may have an increased effect
