an idea
 

I may be wrong about this, but isnt the classic graal server suppost to be the main non gold server? There used to be upwards of 200 people at a time on the server, but now that all these other playerworlds have come out it has slowly drifted to the bottom of the player list.

More than likely, when new players come onto graal to test it out, dont they goto the first server on the list? (At last check Unholy Nation had 183 people on it, and i dont think that the server is THAT good....its just that its on the top of the player list and that new players think that it must be the main server.) Ive talked to a few people about this and they all agree(they were all on classic, so this my be a bit biased) that classic should be made so that it is always on top of the server list and renamed Main server(maybe be a stretch). This way classic will eventually have the most people on the server again. I mean, the classic server was developed by the original graalonline people so wouldnt you want this to be what the new players see, instead of something made by another player?

This is just an idea and may be completely stupid....im just wondering what other people think....

It's not the main server.

+ If it goes to the top of the list, graal2001 goes up there with it.

Don't let our waiting-room playercount fool you, when our weeklong opening countdown starts, people will come back. :)

to me it seems kind of selfish becuase you like classic and of corse want to get more players on it :P
heck i would say the same thing about graal 2001 becuase i like it so much.
i suppose that is just how things are though :(
so i dunno.
i don't like the idea but then what good is my opinon :P?
i suppose i just never liked classic enough to agree :(:(
(i also not like UN)

Personally; I'm against listing any non-gold servers ahead of the others.

I didnt mean for it to sound like i was saying that the classic graal was the main (non gold) server now. I was trying to say that it should be made into that. Maybe it would be betterfor their to be another tab created like graal gold, classic(including 2001?), and playerworlds.

That is an interesting thought. Product placement is a large part of improving product consumption.

Perhaps what should be done is alphabetical? No, that would make servers like Archaic get an unfair advantage. What about playercount? Well no, then it is unfair to new servers.

My thought is make the serverlist look like the graal.net server tree. Categorical is the only fair way to sort servers. Whatever other way you sort inside the catagory, so long as it isn't too big, the playing field is far more level. Just so long as no server is in more than, say, two categories. All servers should be split into RP and PK. Then there should be categories like on graal.net (futuristic, modern, medieval, fantasy, scifi, postapocalyptic, etc)

Perhaps put Gold + Graal Classic + Graal2001 on one page, and the playerworlds on the other?

To show how server that evolved "officially" turned out, perhaps?

But I am against forcing them to be at the top of the same list as the other playerworlds - that is unfair. So...hmm.

The gold tab is too empty though, really. It has...one server (well, more if you're debug staff).

I had suggested earlier that they be combined to form one big playerlist but...*shrugs*

i like the idea with Kingdoms, Classic and Graal2001 in same tab
then playerworlds in a playerworld tab :)

But, isn't Graal2001 and Classic playerworlds now?

You guys forget the 3 tab things going to be happening...

tabs 1 and 2 for uber 1337 playerworlds and 3 for everything else. I personally HATE that but that seems to be what unixmad wants to do. I also hate the fact that when our playerworlds go up only VIP and gold members will be able to play them unless they hit tab 2...That's just setting up lots of us for failure there.

Once the good playerworlds come on Un will be blown out of the water ;).

Many others and myelf can only hope :) .

I may post a screenshot of Sanstrata tomorrow ;).

I'm one of the many others ;)

I'd like to have it so trial accounts can save on classic, but still have some limitations.
