What I think Stefan could do to reel in new players is include one server that is free. Lets say that he revives Graal The Adventure at its prime. New players would be able to truely obtain the Graal experience without compromising profit. The free server would hopefully hook players on the original experiences many of us had. With that said, I still believe that trial accounts should have limits. I think that the trial accounts would have to wait in ghost mode if the number of players exceeds a certain number.
I dunno. I miss the old community.

From my personal experiences, Graal Kingdoms needs much more than just fun sparring events between kingdoms. That server needs a total reform. Leveling up is tedious and too difficult. The only factor that kept me playing was the playerhousing.
My idea for the next killer server is a hotel server. The server would consist of endless floor hotels (similar to my apartment system thread in the Era forum). Events would be the main focus of the server. The events wouldn't be biased towards dedicated players (ex. of bias: If two people were sparring, one player,whom has 400 hours, has 10 max hearts and the other, whom has 10, has 4). The events would be based on skill and benefit the casual player whist not discouraging the hardcore sector. Events could range from finding an Easter Egg to a massive 30v30 spar. Now, aside from participating in events, players could use the experience points earned from events to purchase weapons, furniture, clothing, insturments!, arcade games, and more luxurious rooms. The weapons purchased would be used to complete quests. The quests, which could be located in the basement floors of some hotels, would require specific items and weapons and number of players to complete. A possible reward to completing a quest would be an expansion for your room.
I would work on this idea myself. But I don't have the time or money to do so.
