I like new stuff sometimes too, I like the pyramid parkour on J&H for a while. But I mostly like older stuff, which is why I miss the older games like minefighter(which was my personal favorite), survival games, and skywars. I also miss the older builds that were near the creative spawn on creative #1. But everyone has their own opinions on what they like.
Server will last, I've played on server with a player base of max 20 players in it's entire life time. I'm seeing this server in the future as a comfy server with a small amount of players who aren't all retarded and just play, survival or whatever for the fun of it. Then once that's done it grows or dies. Just waiting for the poopy heads to leave (people who stick to nostalgia, make up statistics about the server, eat mayonnaise, people who constantly complain)
