Fixing some bugs and resetting GK is NOT going to help it at all. The cycle will just start all over again, until everyone is exactly how they are right now.

Bug fixing does not fix balance issues. Bug fixing does not provide justice to criminals. Bug fixing does not make roleplaying easier to do. Bug fixing does not stop people from acting the same way they do. Bug fixing isn't going to help the fact that eventually, you'll only be killing one type of enemy with one type of weapon, because everything else is just "sub par".

Systems need to be totally remade, every item/weapon needs to be balanced and fixed. Magic needs to be changed, fighting needs to be changed. Monster drops need to be changed, making materials needs to be changed. Nearly damn well everything needs to be changed.

I'm not talking about totally remaking the stuff, because for the most part, it's decent. Just modifying things so that there is balance in the game. Making the world more believable. Making people want to RP and not want to go around powerleveling and PKing. These things cannot be accomplished through bug fixes.

There is no administration on GK that is handling issues as they happen. The overall design and planning of GK is TERRIBLE. Planning? What planning? There is no planning that I can see. GK has turned into the typical MMORPG. Which isn't a good thing.

There's no way this can be fixed until they hire someone that knows how to plan for things, and knows how to balance things. Otherwise, there will just be more stupid additions of overpowered weapons, monsters that drop too much exp, and nerfing of many of the things I just mentioned, because the staff don't seem to realise that making things overly powerful, is far worse than making them too weak. With simple concepts like this, if they aren't implemented, you can kiss your dreams of seeing an awesome GK, goodbye.

Right now I think that GK is one of the worst MMORPGS to date. Not because of it's graphics, or players, or staff... But because it's not achieving anything new, it's not balanced, it's not managed. Nothing. Stefan scripts and makes new things, Unixmad manages Graal as a whole, but who is handling GK? Nobody.

Now if I'm banned because I stated some opinions. WHICH NOBODY HAS TO AGREE WITH. Then so be it. I don't think I should be banned for stating something that is so obviously true. I can bring up many MANY facts to go along with my opinions. The last thing I want, is for unix or stefan to come here, get all mad at my post, and ban me instantly because they think I'm totally wrong. Obviously I can't be totally wrong, or people wouldn't be begging for a reset. If I am banned, everyone asking for a reset should be banned, because they are all expressing that GK is not doing well at the moment.
