Wanna know what's really sad?

I could do it on Classic. It'd lag like an SOB and the NPCs wouldn't be able to cross levels, and it'd only work for the first player in the level due to how it stores player information, but I could DO it. It isn't hard.
Every player has an NPC that follows them around the level. It sets to their exact appearance and position. When they change their minimum wage, so does the NPC. When they stop updating, the NPC appears - when they resume updating, the NPC vanishes. When they logon, they are warped to the NPC.

1 NPC per upgraded account - Unixmad just WISHES that was a tall order. Man, if we were at the point where that'd overload the server, we'd have enough money to get a bigger server for one....
