Graal is a great game in theory, but the totally wrong people are playing it. I mean, is there someone out there that acutally says "LIEK OMG, U R HAXORS" or something like that in real life???

A good example of a good game is EverQuest. Sure there a few bad eggs in the bunch that steal your spawn areas, or steal your loot from you, but its such a small amount that you don't even notice. And when you DO see someone like that, report it to a GM and they will stop in no time.

From the time I quit Graal and came back, the game hasn't improved much, and if anything, has gotten worse. I log on Graal Classic for a moment and there are people saying I suck while they are pausing. I mean.. DUH. The message boards isn't getting better either, I mean this guy who posted above, flaming a guy who just pointed out something but didn't criticize or anything. You bring a bad name to Vash the Stampede.

Well I'm going to end this post now, not worth it to get worked up about a silly game.
Exactly. Graal is a great game but it lacks discipline. People are out of control on Graal, and then when a staff member tells them to stop, the person takes it as an insult or something.

For example, some guy could run around on 2k1 calling people "fegs" and harassing players, and being an overall jackass, and the "police" don't do anything but fuel the fire, and if they even take action to stop it, the player has become so used to getting away with it, that they feel they shouldn't be jailed.

Like back during the "anna" time period, she would get out of control and be disruptive. I jailed her, and that just made her get even worse. The rules aren't enforced enough, and they aren't strict enough. This is supposed to be a family game, yet people get away with calling eachother vulgar names, telling eachother to die, etc.
