wow, just because I play UN apparently now, and left classic behind years ago, ADMINS ON CLASSIC HAVE THE RIGHT TO KICK ME OFF WITH A MESSAGE: walk back to towncenter, its calling you, im sure youre more welcome there.

its obviously the staff who are the downfall and these nazi minded players they have created.

Remonq 05-06-2009 08:25 PM

Your bringing up another server that changed for the worse, NP used to be the hub for pking back in the day. Taking a different step in development ruined the server. Graal is Graal not a different fantasy game no matter what tile set, event, role playing events you incorporate.

not saying you did, but someone sure did. probably DC because he doesnt like my opinions on his developing. but that doesnt give him the right to do what he did and that def wont get people playing classic again.

wait Dark Cloud just confirmed he did. communist nazi, no wonder classic is dead.

unknown 05-06-2009 08:35 PM
Dark Cloud: UN is a piece of trash.
Me: you should take notes since they are functioning in every department and have an active player count.
Dark Cloud: classic has a community which UN lacks. I only play graal to talk to my friends, it doesnt matter if UN has all of that.
Me: well then go download a chat client.

obviously someone who only cares to use graal as a chat client has no idea what it takes to get players PLAYING there. god...

Remonq 05-06-2009 08:36 PM
well yeah we don't agree. you're going about it all wrong. you can't FORCE your opinions/beliefs onto somebody and get it to work. what you're doing is a waste of time and if you enjoy wasting your time then please, continue

unknown 05-06-2009 08:40 PM
Dark Clouds reasoning behind not making changes:

"You will all just come here for 10 days and then quit again"

his real reasoning is he keeps stating he doesnt like us because we are from a different server.

Sorry, I would be playing it loyally so shut it.

Remonq 05-06-2009 08:42 PM
loyally? where has your loyalty been for the past 5 or more years?

how am I forcing my beliefs? look at the poll already, NO ONE LIKES THE CURRENT HIT DETECTION.

The Masterstorm comment was only put in as this is the traditional next step of the process each time a poll is put up. As will be the blaming of my interference in Classic's issues. People just haven't got there yet.

I would like to thank you for your support to me as a global. I was unaware you were the cause of my gaining this status. All this time I thought it came solely from Lyndzey and Ibonic, but I digress.

In regards to hit detection. I believe I did touch on that without using those exact words. Quite a few developers have offered their help yet quickly realized they were in too deep and left. Unless you actually scripted for Classic you wouldn't understand that the movement and HD are intertwined.
They can be seperated on a small scale as has been done with a few of the spars but for pking in general its far more complicated. This happens to be the current issue being discussed between Thor and Storm. Each method requires different actions regarding what the development team focuses on and what staff qualifications are required. Obviously this is not something visible to average players, hence the feeling that nothing is being done.

A few things:

1. Yes, my disappointing Ex GM Asst and I had Lynzdey hired back in '02 or '03 and we spoke about making you a global. That shouldn't come as a surprise.

2. In regards to the work needed for Classic; Rome wasn't built in one night.

3. I was successful with Shaded Legend for some time because I had a STRONG team and they had good leadership.

4. We knew what the big picture was and we worked as a team. Classic needs the same.

5. I'm not saying the current team is not good, but they need more help. There have been a few volunteers.

6. This is just the first step, and the first obstacle is convincing the current staff what the players want in the content. HD.

well lets see, I quit for 3 of those 5 and I didnt really FULLY stop playing classic until like 2005. so from 2000-2005 I was loyal and even tried to put up with the hit detection change.

why would i waste my time with a server that wasnt going anywhere?

DarkCloud_PK 05-06-2009 08:47 PM
Thanks for speaking for me, but the main point I've been saying is that a mere HD switch to default is not going to magically save classic. It won't bring any players here, I could turn off the HD we have now for a week and it would be just as dead as it is now.

Don't believe me? I could have it done, but I know the result already, so what's the point.

A default HD wont mask all the other, larger problems that classic faces.
Not to mention you keep forgetting the aspect of community and what a vital role that plays in a successful server.

Let me remind you again, let's go back 5 years, a couple months before the npc server switch, the HD was DEFAULT, the levels were the GTA levels.

What was the player count?
30.
UN was at 200+.

Clearly it's the HD that is the problem, even though it didn't solve anything 5 years ago.

and as for contego blaming storm for starting the whole mess with custom systems and HD. it isn't his fault, it was forced on him to make everything serverside in the sake of security, so Graal Classic wouldn't be the trainer infested zone it was before. If you want to direct your blame on the custom systems of classic being created, divert your blame to stefan, he was the one that made that call.

Edit: Let me dumb down my point in one simple sentence.
Classic was dying long before default HD was removed.

unknown 05-06-2009 08:48 PM
we dont have to believe you, test and see the results you *****.

I have been back consistently since '05. I started in '99 and I left the community in late '03 and returned in '05 to present.

The gap was life distractions such as loss of loved ones, moving, etc. Thanks for the concern. ^^

Forums tend to lose focus of the topic or issue at hand which is why I spend little time the past 10 years posting on them.

You're truly misinformed, please don't make false presumptions about me.

Remonq 05-06-2009 08:51 PM
and you are misinformed if you think that changing the HD will MAGICALLY save the server

We didn't jump ship, we were inactive for a short time like everyone becomes.

You will probably disappear for a couple years and return one day. Doesn't mean you "jumped ship".

However when we returned, the game we once knew it's HD was drastically changed. I couldn't stay interested. But I did stay with Graal just on a server more like Classic's original HD.

You're right it was dying.
But rather than improve what players wanted such as events and more things to attract the kinds of players you had there; You develop a new HD and a Trading Card Game????? WTF?

Remonq 05-06-2009 08:54 PM
i left for 2 years while i was in the military tyvm and i also noticed the change of HD but you know what? i somehow lived with it. scary huh?

AGAIN someone who DOES not READ what I said. This is a start, this is why it isn't maintaining it's current playercount. I did NOT say it will magically bring back anything.

Look at the poll results. It's what the players want.

This is a start, then development continues to move on from there but in a better direction.

help how? I suggested just like a lot of old players did and storm didnt listen. I dont script or do anything of that nature so theres no point in trying to hold me to that, nice try.

great you lived with it.

know what the jews did in WW2? they lived with what was happening, and they died for it.

sometimes you cant just stand by buddy.

I just sparred on the HD, and its like sparring a lagger. plus when you get hit the image is super annoying and ruins momentum. Throws me off anyway.

when contego is talking about establishing a team and giving his services, you think thats a bad approach? hes putting his money where his mouth is, go read previous posts.

Fair enough, but giving your feedback would be constructive not simply bashing on others.

It's okay to disagree but you should always have an open mind and look to the majority.

i'm merely commenting on the trolling you have been doing on classic

Masah 05-06-2009 09:09 PM
LOL at new classic
 
Developpers are geat.
Classic sucked since 2003-2004
Don't give us the reason: it takes a while to do.

DC just stated like 10 mins ago that:"I come on graal to interact with friends,we don't care about pk,spar,events and guild wars"

WTF? If I wanna interact with friends and talk about my life,i'll just do it in real life.

Enjoying an online game is doing pvp,work to get some items,enjoy stuff like events,guild wars,spar tourney,items hunt...

Interact with friends?
That's what new classic staff came up with as a solution for low player rates? LET'S DO AN INTERACTIVE BOT NPC,SO WE CAN TALK WITH HIM.

Btw,it's DecemberChill,for some reason,lazy staff won't active my account on forums >_<

It was the hit detection that killed it even more than p2p.

Do you get it?

And if it was dying? why do you still develop there? you obviously dont care if it comes back seeing as you only want to chat and you wont take ideas from players who actually want to come back. stupid nazi dictator

Nah,I don't.
You know why people started leaving after p2p?
UN had more features.
Classic never developped anything,you started late 2005? lol.
It was too late.

Don't blame players for not beeing loyal when you got nothing new to have.
I understand everyone who switched server,those who stayed were mostly iders? Correct me,but who pk nowadays on classic.

Riiiight, but the HD change was the WRONG direction for development. Do you get that? Players didn't mind that, they wanted more content. Example, more guild wars, an economy etc etc etc I keep repeating myself.

I don't think you're opening your eyes DarkCloud.

Do you get that there are 57 out of 60 people who want to see the old HD system back?

If this poll doesnt close watch the numbers keep growing. The proof is in the pudding.

You're Dev Admin. Please direct the team in the right direction.

LOL very good point/analogy.

even if it was dying DC, why was it dying? not because of p2p, because a whole bunch of classic players still play other servers. They wont play classic why? the same reason they left, crappy hit detection. My mom is a debate teacher, I can call her if you'd like and she can read this whole forum, bet you have no valid points really.

during the age of P2P to the point where an NPC server was forced on us, changing the HD.
The playercount dropped from 150 to 30, I don't know about you, but thats dying to me.

As for the AIDS patient comment, sure you can give him other diseases, but its still the AIDS thats killing him.
