Yea it's really interesting actually, you can see what kind of people the server has now that this isn't being immediately shot down, let alone the fact that people are actually supporting it.
Well it's true, a few years ago the idea would have gone out of the window in a matter of minutes, but there are changes needed within the server/community that people are pushing for.
A new style of handling change is in place and ideas are actually listened to and discussed.
