You maybe got to RP for an hour or two before it was split up, then what happened? You sat around in the market or the admin house or your own house. There wasn't much to do, the 2002 system provides players with things to do when not RPing, Graal isn't a giant game with thousands of players like Furc where you can always find a good RP, so periodically theres times when you need something else to entertain you. Thats where leveling and browsing shops and bargaining with others. Yeah there were markets on 2001 but what the hell could you really buy that had any point? Hats? Honestly....
The reason why people don’t go back is because Graal2001 is old and Graal Kingdom is new. People will generally prefer to play a game that is more updated in all aspects of it, oppose to play a older version of it. In addition, there has been an attempt to revive Graal2001 by adding new kingdom names, the excitement only lasted about a week with a max of 30 players playing. Nothing new was really added but it still attracted people including myself to the server. Its been shown when things are added to a server, people will begin go there to see the new stuff out. Eventually, people will begin leaving the server. Graal Kingdoms had times when there has been very FEW players in what would be normally peak times, however when you add something new, people will go back. Look at it right now, before there would just be 40-50 players in peak time. Now with the new addition of the Hotaru town people are returning and the player population has reached in the 80’s. There has not been any major additions to Graal2001 so don’t expect it to be popular all over again anytime soon. Now Graal kingdoms always gets new updates so its been relatively keeping a good size of players from Graal Golden standards. Keep feeding them new stuff and they will come, stop and they will leave. This is fact.
