some part of the community still complains about modern knockback not feeling the same, specially for fishing rod and blockhitting, even when using plugins like OldCombatMechanics fortunately they're less each year, but some server owners still want to give them what they want always found curious how they don't get bored after playing the same style of pvp for almost 10 years at this point :thonk:

I get the feeling, but they haven't got over it in 10 years :/ Doesn't help that launchers like badlion or lunar clients, even if they support modern versions, kind of still encourage the use of 1.8 So even newer players get used to legacy pvp

force them to! they canโ€™t play on 1.8 if you canโ€™t join the server on that version

Would be funny ngl :kekw_dog: But they'll probably will go to hypixel, that still runs on 1.8
