We are talking about the ONLY c1 server around. OFC rates MUST be low, since max lvl skills is at 58~ lvl. And ofc npc buffer should not exist and not any other modification. You know why? Because people that wanna join a C1 server are only the people that have played C1 before like me and wanna feel this on a decent level. We wanna play as we used to play back at C1, not at a x8 server where in 1 week and a half i am max lvl on 3 chars and i am SOLO farming my armor/weapon.
wipe wipe wipe and remove any modifications! We want a crystal clear Pure c1 chronicle!!!

Could not agree more with you!
I think the main reason for people to play (or even search for) a C1 Lineage 2 server is because of the nostalgic feeling.
Our hearts ache for a time (+-10 years ago) not so much a well balanced game or anything.
We want to experience what we have experienced before when it was C1 on retail, with all it's pros and cons.
THAT is exactly what makes it attractive to play C1.
Idealy I would like to see a server without dualbox at all because you would give back the HUGE value that any sort of support character had back in the day.
I remeber C1 parties in Cruma Tower 1 where there was a full lvl 30-40 party with one buffer keeping everyone going.
Please note that no one that didn't have a HIGH level character yet could afford soulshots at all, let alone top D grade at lvl 20 for example.
It took lots of grinding with your friends / clan mates to get anything. We could hardly clear a Cruma Tower 1 room with a 9 person party (awesome times!)
However this was possible in a world of plenty players and will be idealistic for a reasonably small server.
None the less I think the closer you stay to retail C1 the better chance you have of keeping and getting players that want to play this server BECAUSE it is retail like C1.
For balanced game play and higher skills / levels there is plenty of other servers out there.
A question you should ask yourself is, where does it stop? You 'balance' one thing now and have to 'balance' an other thing later because of that first modification.
Great decision to wipe and rebuild the server, in my opinion.
My advice is to rebuild it now in such a way that you donīt make that many modifications that the die hard old school players (the ones that play for the oldschool feeling and that will stay more then a week or two) don't experience C1 as it was intended.
+1 for you GM, best of luck on building "The World" and thank you for putting so much effort into it, whatever you do I am thankful that there is someone that gives me the opportunity to play oldschool Lineage 2!
