(nitpicking) I sincerely doubt that's a fact at all, much less a simple fact. Did we sleep through the discussion in middle school English class about the difference between facts and opinions? (/nitpicking)

That aside, I don't particularly agree with your opinion.

You've heard, I'm sure, of the idea of "golden age syndrome" with MUDs, wherein the old school players of the MUD believe that everything was awesome when they started playing, but that all successive changes to the game or playerbase have made it worse. Generally, players with this syndrome view the past of the game through very rosy colored classes. They forget or gloss over problems that were there, remembering only the good; conversely, when viewing the present, they find only fault and gloss over the improvements.

I respectfully suggest that you have TMS-GAS.
