"Hosted" Tab

Well, I'm just wondering how servers on the tab get online with this statement.

Quote:
Before going online you must proove worthy on the tab. Note, only Gold / VIP can go on there.
(Not exactly copied and pasted but that's what it is...)

Well, instead of making the tab Gold and VIP why not make it classic for all players to go on, thus giving the opportunity for the server owners to get feedback on the server from the people who will actually play the server. It will also get staff and what not.

Comments?

I think hosted tab should also allow access to classic accounts, since that's probably the largest group of players.

I just believe that Hosted tab shouldn't allow buy VIP/Gold as for they are undeveloped servers that are on their way. They aren't there to be cluttered with players, but serve as a preview of what's to come. VIP should have an insight on these thing in comparision to other accounts, therefore removing that ability will make VIP even more worthless. I do not believe that it'd be fair.

Can Classic accounts get on the hosted PW's at all, or are they a ghost?
I would agree with classic accounts being able to get on as a ghost in order to view the server for advertising purposes or to see if they wanted to be staff on the server.

Agreed

Ghost Mode is limited, you cannot accurately preview or review a server if you're in ghost mode. Classic accounts should be allowed on, but follow the same rules a trail account would if they logged on a Classic server.

You don't see the point here. Going to the hosted tab gets your server more recognition as is shows up on the Graal Client itself. As Gambet said, what would be the point of the classic tab if the hosted tab allowed classic accounts?

The hosted tab is still just a stepping stone. The Classic tab must be earned.
