The Rantings of a Crazed Graalian

[Locke_boy]

Do not flame me for this having been mentioned already, because I know it's a prominent problem. Someone PLEASE give me a reason to play 2k1, a GOOD one. I miss it. If I remember correctly, I was completely hooked on it when I first got my payed account. I didn't even play Classic at all until some time after.. ..but the problem is that now, there's nothing for me to work for. What, a bomy, a house? I'd love one of those (the bomy mostly), but they are impossible to get. The most money I've ever had was about 700, and now I have about 100. Making money is extremely difficult, and everything is so discreet on the server .. there are no real goals at all. Even if there are, they are all so well-hidden, that I can't find them! The best I've done is completed the bomy heart quest and the bomy moon quest. Hoorah for that .. look, my point is that I want to play 2k1, but I don't, because there is no real reason to. The only time I go on there anymore is when the 2k2 server is down, and right now it is down (has been for quite a while) .. and guess what? I'm just sitting on 2k2, 2k1 bores me so! This is saddening for me, because 2k1 has such potential. Oh- a recommendation, though .. the thing with invisible bodies and heads .. that's a bit, well, odd (I guess that can pass, eh?) .. but allowing Classic bodies is just creepy, because they don't fit right.. anyway! That's a bit off-topic. Hrm. Personally, I think one thing that might help the server a bit is a change in economy (I know this has been mentioned, nix the flaming) .. there are only two decent ways to make money (mining and pearling), and one indecent (buying things and overselling them), which doesn't even work well anymore, because there aren't much any people to even try and sell things to. Psh, the only things I can afford are hats and instruments, and hats are all out of stock every time I'm there, and people always buy instruments for way less than half what I payed for them, for some odd reason .. so I have no easy way of making money. There's not much for me to make goals for either .. what, hats? Whoop-dee-doo .. those are nice, but .. overpriced. Dolls? Oh, hoorah, honestly, I don't want dolls of people that just make me feel jealous (I hate the fact that on every server I'm nothing more than a "****") .. what else? Not much. Have I gone on enough? Don't know. Honestly, can anyone give me a reason to want to play here anymore? Because (do not criticize my grammar) in my mind, 2k2 surpasses 2k1 in most every way, despite the fact it is in alpha. Humph. By the way, don't any of you go giving me a lecture or some ub3r 1337 fl4m3 j0b. I don't need any of that "ur a *** so **** 2k1 rox u lamer" garbage .. I want decent responses, kay? Meh, sorry, I'm sort of on edge. 2k2 server has been down for over an hour now, I think.. SO! What's to happen with this?

That's kind of why I and Koni are aiming towards lots of revamping culminating in a reset. :|

[--Chris--]

there are currently 4 hat shops in stock:santerran,ug lake, bomboria and the one inside the place where u get "the purest water of all graal" on that path to get to harmonia from bomboria (north east.) pearl diving has also been improved with 3 different color pearls each with different values and a few events were added if u weren't around for a while (musket,swat was fixed etc)
erm...alot more but i don't think its too necessary to name everything

Reset = Good, especially since people can't just pearl dive 200g in an hour anymore, also, take away monsters being able to give you crafted gold, and make the sword 20 monster kills and 25 gralat or something.

Revamping = Bad, 2K1 has everything it needs to be successful post-reset, because all the bugs in farming etc, are gone.

You DO realise that if there was a reset, nobody would have a sword...

Ahem. You know, I feel like enough of a fool already in just about EVERYTHING in my life, so, I'd rather you didn't go and make it worse. That wasn't really all too necessary..

For people who wanted to understand what you wrote, it indeed was.

Reset = Bad, because everything would be exactly the same as it is, except now everyone would be back to nothing and lose everything they once had. Gee, that really makes people want to play.

Reset + Revamping = Good, because not only will the economy get another chance, but there will be many new things to do, along with things actually being organized and the answer to that most important of questions... "What is the point of playing?"

It was necessary, because I couldn't read what you wrote.

Don't take it as criticism, man, he was doing us a favor.

and that 25G would be a semi massive amount of money...
