Keep 1.8 pvp!!!!!

READ COMMENTS. This will get cut off I want to see this gamemode keep the OG 1.8 pvp for at least 5 reasons. 1. It is my personal favorite style 2. A lot of the current community prefers 1.8. I will go as far as to say I suspect the server would lose a lot of it's current playerbase if it was Modern PVP. 3. I want a playerbase of not just "new to factions" players, but a mix. Both new players, and experienced factions players. To me the depth of the gamemode that comes from high level play is a MAJOR appeal to me. Modern PVP would be a dealbreaker for many if not most experienced factions players. If I am one of very few players left on the server with Factions knowledge that could become too easy/too boring for me 4. Few servers have tried 1.8 pvp in 1.21 - when Minecraft 1.9 released, most existing PVP servers stayed on 1.8 rather than updating to 1.9, but re-creating 1.8 combat. This was likely a contributing factor to the decline of Factions (in the wider MC server scene, not referring to OGN specifically). The gamemode felt more and more outdated in terms of the lack of modern blocks, features, etc (1.8.9 is over 10 years old after all). One reason why might be that sword blocking couldn't be faithfully re-created until 1.21 released, likely as a result of client-side features added by Mojang. I think the best chance to revive 1.8 pvp is to offer it on a 1.21 server.
