And I suppose they cut off all the hair off of some poor peasant and made an afro hat out of it? :(

here's the problem:
Graal 2002 is intended to be the roleplaying realm 2001 never was.
However, stefan wants it to appeal to non-roleplayers as well, and you'll have the same chaos and lack of fun that is 2001.

I personally think that there should be two different 2002 servers:

1. Graal 2002 Roleplaying Realm - what Graal 2002 was BEFORE the damned go-karts.
2. Graal 2002 Theme Park - the 2002 world, only without the roleplaying and with stupid hats, go-karts, and a thousand minigames.

This is one bad thing about letting ghosts on the server, people will complain about stuff that is in development and yet don't know all the facts.

The island it is being built on is a NON RP ISLAND. And about the guards, they are for kindgom leaders (far as I know) and you can summon guards and things with them. GodSpeed is making them very nicely; it will add a lot of RPing (you really cant believe me til you see it in action).

Indeed.
The theme park could be some Island off to the side or something, where TIME STANDS STILL AND AN ALTERNATE UNIVERSE OF PAIN AND GOKARTS ARE AWAKENED.

Meanwhile, give me access to administrate the forum and the accounts database, and I'll delete your account and IP ban you from the forums.

but, that's the thing.
This is a ROLE PLAYING GAME. the goal is to roleplay. Not to go on quests. Not to trade hats. Not to race go-karts, but to ROLEPLAY, LIKE WE SHOULD HAVE ALL BEEN DOING FROM THE START.

Going on quests with people could be roleplaying, but questing as an individual for a heart or something is not.
A roleplaying type quest would be something like making a treacherous journey across a LARGE continent to accomplish something, not defeating 10 monsters, walking across a tiny walkway and giving a man a pot, and killing a boss for a heart.

Blah
The Guards for kingdom leaders
Ahahah
Summoning 2 people out of no where = not RPish
Having NPC guards for Kingdom Leaders = Why we need em?
It will add alot of RPing? like what?

Quests can be part of roleplaying - an adventuring party takes on the Demon Lord, or something.

no, idiot, you arne't banned if you're not RPing, you're banned if you're not following our rules, which is to show consent towards the idea behind Providence - ROLEPLAY. if you don't LIKE roleplaying, then don't connect to it. simple.

i would now like to gloat about the fact that i already said this was coming, if you all remember, in a thread the day 2002 came out, or the day after or something. i warned all of you. a lot of you believed me this time, but still a handful of you said it would be different.

sorry, but i don't think i'll ever be wrong, when it comes down to predicting what will happen to something that starts off as a promising place to RP.

never, ever, ever ask Stefan or his team to make a place for RPers. they don't know HOW to RP, and thus CANNOT.
