Graal Bomy Lands

[camelback]

I would really like to know. Are we saying good-bye to Graal Bomy Lands (Graal 2001). I dont really want to see it go just because I think the server has potential. If it has to be it has to be then I would say /wave Graal2001.

Yes. Only my Bomy Island project is being developed now.

Can you briefly sum up the differences between the two projects?

Bomy Lands was a revision using most of Graal2001's current content in conjunction with newly formed updates and new kingdoms. This developed essentially to be a continuation of Graal2001.

Bomy Island is a complete rehaul including a new tileset and scripting changes to basically recreate 2k1. It's basically a retcon.

How exactly do you feel it was "originally intended"? Only the people who managed or developed the server know how it was intended to be.

Camelback's always been powerhungry. Just assume anything he says is probably an empty idea he thinks will secure him some power.

I think you need to take a trip down memory lane.

I'm sure you would.

Gryffon's an idiot. Im not looking for what he calls "Power". Im looking to revive the server back to way it should have been. I want to put it back the way it was. Having it show the way I experienced it back in 2002 when I first played there.

The pot calling the kettle black.

The way you experienced it on 2002 can never be brought back. NOBODY is going to play on 2k1 if it's just the same old 2k1 with nothing new and exciting.

It was exciting at that time because new things were happening and the server was incredibly popular and content was being developed and it was the year 2002. You can't revive something four years later and expect everyone to enjoy it as much as they did when it was new.

It'd be like Nintendo re-releasing the N64 with Mario 64 for full price. Who the hell would want to play it? Either you've played it to death, or you've played something better.

I've been critical of Konidias in the past but he's right. People don't want 2k1 back they want how they felt and the newness of everything they once experienced back. That's why the server has failed multiple times.
The only way 2k1 has any chance of comming back is to completely redisgn the server and use only the concept of 2k1 none of the original content maybe even loosly the story lines. But not the exact story lines themselves or the world will quickly stagnate into what it once was.
There aren't many people who I think could do a decent job of remaking the server but if I was going to back some one it would be Konidias assuming he follows through with it would be my only concern.
Konidias has great ideas with skills that can help make them happen. I just hope he has the strength to see it through to the end.
I haven't really kept tabs on the remake but if you have bomy pets and the like you should finish the Bomy Battling you started working on years ago before you resigned as staff.
As for the ego thing there are several things with your name on them one other comming to mind is that one death match game just north of the amdin house but that is neither here nor there and has nothing to do with the primary topic of the post.
