There is one thing that bothers me that people seem to be forgetting about. Due to the fact that the PWA and staff of Classic are all on differant time zones. It was suggested by DC that a private forum be set up so that the staff and PWA could talk to each. While a few people thought it was a dumb idea I agreed to it and had Darlene set it up.

Each and every one of you had an opportunity to say whatever you wished, there was no moderation, nothing to say you couldn't speak your mind and put in anything you felt was important. If you chose not to participate then so be it, your decision. A few people chose to contact the PWA outside of the forums with other comments they preferred not to say publicly. Which was alright too. Several of you said "This is all I have to say." Because I felt that it still may of left some questions unanswered, I posed a few questions of my own. Those were also responded to.

Why is it now though that when this is all over, some of you now come back and complain that nobody talked to you. You have your own voice, there was absolutely nothing stopping any of you from adding anything you wanted to say. Instead the PWA gets blamed for not asking you personally?

You didn't like the inititial review, fine. I removed myself from the process and saw to it you got your review under your conditions. Making it very clear that it wouldn't be done a third time if you didn't like the outcome. The PWA team did their review and came to a conclusion which I then posted. It seems like we're back to square one again which is historically the case on Classic.

If I could magically find a way to raise player morale and make Classic the server it was pre npc I would. Graal's playerbase as a whole wouldn't support it at this time and all of you know that. This isn't the fault of the PWA, this isn't a problem limited to Classic alone. Morale will only go so far though. History shows that its also short lived.
