Also, you can't really compare the "caliber" of servers of the past to the servers now, those were different times, different playercount, etc.

i don't need the forums to tell me if it was awesome - i was there, i know what happened. it was better in my opinion, and i'm sure others share my opinion. i'm not trying to just bring up nostalgia - i'm making a point that if the player's are going to make the content, then they need to be supported 100 percent by CJ - or CJ should make the content themselves, and this i would prefer

You also kind of do realize a good portion of graal's playerbase doesn't develop? That's because they're not supposed to. Graal is advertised as a game--It's this style of thinking that has made Graal's playercount fall to a fifth of what it used to be 4+ years ago. Most of the servers now suck and people don't have to develop just to enjoy this game or even pay for it.
Most of hiro's posts have been in the correct style of thinking from a consumer's point of view for graal so I am taking his side on this. Sorry if I misunderstood anything, but I am speaking out of my perception of the matter.
I do happen to think the purpose of this thread has went off in a tangent. Yes I do wish I did not have to pay to help some UC servers out, but apparently this hasn't been the case for years. I'd pay the 25 yearly thing for the previously known vip package, but that doesn't exist anymore. But y'know theyre not making more money off the quality of their game, so they gotta charge more somewhere.

it' very true that ever since graal took the standpoint of being a "development platform" after the boom of people wanting to develop servers, the population has been in decline, and most of the people who play graal are not optimistic about anything happening on graal at all - everything is stagnate
