UN would not be averaging a 100+ people at peak times nor would classic be avering about the same at peak times. The servers with new tile sets how many players do they average? Era comes close but its player base is dropping slowly and its only averaging about 70 players at peak times that I've seen. So your logic of the classic tile set being crap and should not be allowed is greatly flawed as in this is graal these are graal servers that is the graal tile set. People like the graal look and feel. Not every one wants a server with everything brand new and non-graal.

As true as that may be, most people will be turned off by the default stuff if they have never seen or heard of Graal before. I don't see anything absolutely wrong with using default so long as its done well, but that's like asking for the clouds to rain money
To me, a playerworld is a product and I'm going to do my best within the abilities I am capable of to reach a level of excellence that I think will draw in customers. I want to make my product stand out from the rest. I want to give consumers a reason to "buy" my product over a generic brand. If all I do is make my product look and feel like the rest sitting on the shelf, what makes you think the average consumer is going to choose what I offer over something else that is similar? I'm pretty sure this is the same idea that Konidias is following to a degree. My focus is to bring in players that have never heard about Graal or the fence sitters that are curious but are not willing to take a risk in fear that it may not work out. Obviously, I won't please everyone but that's life.
