Of course it's a "completely valid choice" to leave any of your muds features exactly the same as they were in the stock codebase you started from. The four stock classes you started out with 13 years ago. The lack of races your Diku derivative came with. The automated combat system consisting of typing "kill" then sitting back to watch the show. These are all "valid choices" - indeed, leaving the entire mud as stock would be a "valid choice".
However the original poster specifically stated that he created the thread with the intent of finding other people's opinions, and that's what I think we should concentrate on.
What's your opinion about the endless Diku muds with their stock features, Matt? Don't you think some people might be tired of them? Perhaps prefer something more professional?
What are your views on automated combat? I once heard someone refer to such combat systems as a "joke" - do you think that's a reasonable statement?
