as if anyone cares, but i got an idea!

yeah yeah yeah
most of us can remember when the classic servers could top out at 250 people. Now its rare to see even 100 people on. i miss the times when graal was full. it made it less dull. I have 3 p2p accounts, so its not like this suggestion applies to me or anything, but I was thinking that in order to revive the amount of players on the classic servers that less restrictions be put on non p2p accounts. mabe change the restrictions? its kind of harsh that a non p2p accnt cant save. If you want to sell the game to a player, the player should be able to experience the full version of the game while in trail. mabe making caps for non p2p, but still giving them the ability to save? I donno, i just miss a full server. It could benefit game play to get more people active. One thing i'll use as an example is its a pain for people who wanna make guilds and cant get anyone to join because everyone else is already in a guild. Another example would be finding people to fill in spots for gc events. A few years ago (pre gc), you could always find someone to play games with you because there was plenty of people online, and someone was always willing to try out a game even if it sounded totally dumb. If a gc wanted to try a new game, but the 20 people online think its dumb and dont wanna play, the gc kinda can only resort to holding sparring tourns. with more people, you could hold these events and stuff. Anyways, thats just an idea.

But more people pay for Graal when there are more limitations, and we are slowly getting back the number of players we had before the 1st of May

Noone ever wanted to try my game called World Conquest (also pre-GC) to where there were three nations and they tried to take over each other with force... there were judges and bases (stables were the southern nation, the castle was the central nation, and The Big City place was the Northern Nation.

Noone wanted to play it though :/... But the best pre-GC game was Seige... where one team occupied a building and the other tried to take it over

If trial accounts could do everything normal non gold accounts can do why would anyone buy an upgrade to the classic servers when they can just get trial accouts?

I think it's more like... Let people play for a week to where they can save... but after that week their account goes into a disabled list untill it gets upgraded.

And like one account per e-mail so people just dont make free e-mails.

Trail accounts are good anyway... would you want to pay 32 dollars a year for a game you have no idea on what it's about?

exactly, however a drawback would be people multi accounting. though.

also trail accounts wouldnt be able to get into the 2k2 servers and stuff. that could be an advantage.
