There has been the occasional thread from players from the classic FFA community asking for it to make a return. Which didn't exactly matter since there was a 1.8 FFA version made available. Now that, you know, it's going to be a relic of the past, why not consider adding it back? I understand it might not exactly going to be that big of a priority since it's going to make up even less of the Java player total player count. But it's surely a replacement (maybe not for everyone) for die-hard 1.8 mechanic fans and players who still wish to play on Cubecraft.Here's a quick list of threads/comments from the past asking for it's return:

- https://www.cubecraft.net/threads/removal-of-1-8-communities-on-cubecraft.283759/ (recent example)
If that isn't enough, here's a few more reasons why it should be added back!
- It makes it a lot easier for players to switch to other gamemodes if they want. I personally didn't really like playing on 1.8 FFA because it was annoying for me to switch versions to play games like Minerware, Layer Spleef, and more.
- Attractive alternative for players who want to try something sorta new. I mean, it's literally FFA, you can't go wrong with it.
- The kits in that version was probably the most balanced out of all the versions. Even in wings. Of course most players prefer playing with speed. (please don't make it overpowered.)
- Alchemist was actually to play with due to how pot mechanics worked in 1.9+.
- When player shopped, they didn't exactly have a huge advantage like they do in 1.9.
- Also didn't really like it because that version on Cubecraft has always felt awkward for me to play on when compared to other servers. But hey maybe that's just me!
- Limitations on maps isn't a big issue now because you no longer need to convert maps like Mirage to a 1.8-friendly map.
- Future updates should be somewhat easier to deal with (?)
tl;dr
