I find that funny considering the Classic forum (under playerworlds list) is more civilized than a majority of the other forums

Even if they're normal players who aren't very accustomed to our forums, im sure they've all used forums before and know the basic rules of any forums, rules such as no swearing, no spamming, so on...I mean, not everyone who doesn't have 40 bucks is a complete *****.

very good point, Cid. :)

also, classic or gold, they are both players that have somehow contributed to graal's cause and they should be able to voice their opinions. you would think a game like graal would promote player input, but sometimes i get the feeling that's not the case.

Rioken_Hiroshyima 11-04-2002 11:35 AM

I believe its more or less the classic players are set in.I'll take an example from Grand Theft Auto.


In the regular game you can do the missions,beat the game,ect.,which would be taking it seriously.But there are others who like to put in cheats,and theres nothing wrong with this,but it screws up how the game was supposed to be played.Such as how Graal is.I believe Gold members tend to take more of a seriousness to Graal,because either they want to take a game they paid for seriously,or they're serious about Graal and want to pay.Their behavior probably isn't based on their intelligence,but on the outlook of the game.

Some players react to it as "hey,I'm paying for this game,so I might as well make the most of it by making a nice name,and making friends",but some take it from a different approach,and may think "Well,i'm not paying for it,and it doesn't save me,I might as well screw around and see if I can find cheats for it/talk this way.There are exceptions,yes,but for the most part,gold players tend to take the game more seriously,because they paid 40$ for it.I'm sure I can go on classic and find 10 intelligent people,but I can also find 10 SSJ5AF NAPPA {Recruting 4 SSJ5AF Guyz}.I am guilty of that myself.In my classic days,I took on the role of Vivi,from Final Fantasy 9,and started a guild called the Vivi Alliance.At that time I wasn't taking Graal very seriously,and I wanted to start something that would be considered cool at the time.It had nothing to do with my intelligence,just my behavior.

As for whether or not they can post,I believe they should.Whats the point of having a classic forum,without having classic players on it?I'd even contribute to the cause to see that it was a clean forum.I got nothing better to do in life. =/

sorry but i think that's wrong...
saying that people who don't have gold accounts don't take graal seriously or whatever isn't accurate at all.

What if someone upgraded their account before, and liked playing on classic servers more then the gold servers, why would they upgrade just to play classic servers..it doesn't mean they don't take graal seriously just because they don't have a gold account.
Or what if they can not afford to upgrade their account.
Most people stereotype classic players as un intelligent or trouble makers or whatever....i think that really needs to stop =/

I know they've paid and all my main reason is players on the classic servers tend to be little punks who do nothing but curse and fight like pathetic little children all day.
Alas, Classic does have its annoying child population. I believe whoever has upgraded their account, should have lifetime access to the Classic and playerworlds main forum, and should have access to forum PMs. Seems acceptable.

They should get development, they shouldn't get 2001 and 2002 and thats all. I doubt this will happen :(

None Related
Main
Bugs
Future Improvments
PlayerWorlds
And maybe a few more....

Basically everything except
2001
2002
Development (Levels, Scripting, NPC Server, Gani, GFX)

The reason for not giving acess to all of the development, is so there is a reason to sign up. Maybe they shouldnt get main! Anyway just thought Id ask.

Vote and the comment on Which Sections you think classic members should be aloud to get to, if any.

So, basically, you're saying give Classic players all of the forum rights that Gold subscribers acutally USE?

Since they've upgraded once, they should get Playerworlds, Bugs, and POSSIBLE Future Improvements.

I'm more towards the "no" side, though.

Another good reason to say no is that Classic is actually free. You can make an account and try Graal on Classic for free. If someone gets banned, they can just come right back.

No this should be only for Classic players who have upgraded their account , not trial accounts ...... Heaven forbid that! :\

1. yes i think people on Classic thats not trial and paid before
should get acess to Classic Playerworld forum
but nothing else.
2.no private messages. Reason: Becuse like kondidas said
stefan and unimax or anyone that is wery famous on graal
would get overfloading pms liek "HI MAN OMG OMG ITS STEFAN CAN WE BE FREINDS PLZ PLZ PLZ PLZ"
and thats uninportant pms for me.
3. i still think Classic forum would be spammed as hell and the moderator would get alot of problem.


But it would been declared as Graal History *The Chaos of Graal offical forum*:cool:

//Jaffer ;)

Com013 11-06-2002 01:46 AM

Yes, the forums are a reason to get a gold account.

But I haven't heard of any up-to-date scripting/level making sites (Maybe that's just because I didn't look for them recently. But when I did, all the sites www.graalclassic.com linked to where out of date). We should give new players a way to see a list of usefull scripts which were made by other players. A way to ask question without PM-bombing the next LAT who is online.

Spark910 11-06-2002 01:58 AM

No I dont suggest they get ALL rights NeoNight, Which is why if you read my post you will see they get about 40% of acess (In My Opinion)

Cid_Night 11-06-2002 02:22 AM

i agree, np pm's is a good idea, and only give it to those who have paid for the classic...and um...lesse.....ya thats it lol.

Spark910 11-10-2002 06:20 PM

Yeah that would be good, get people involved, yet still give them a valid reason to buy gold.
