What has happened to GK?

[Splke]

Quoting my good friend DragonX on this,

"GK has been on a downward spiral since it opened".

Face it, it's true. GK has been "dead" for almost a year now, when it became apparent to us all that unless you have 500+ USD to spend, you will not acquire the gear you need.

Thankfully for me, I cashed out 3-4 times, so I'm happy. But unfortunately that only supports this thread's main reasoning and worries -- USD owns everything.

It provides most people a stimulate to continue playing, rather then play for the game. Play for the money, as people observed when I, Brad, MarkB and Torankusu played.

Now it seems that all of this has been overcast by a new ringlord, of course I speak of Deophite who has managed to rid the game of it's "novice" stages.

A recent "haha funny" IM reached me with him sending a mass, "Trading +12 Immortal Frost shield for 150 Diamonds".. Now, allow me to justify this action .. oh wait, nevermind, he only bought it for 20$ so I guess it's an even trade!

Not only this, but so many threads have come along with much greater ambition to help GK (lordbosh, GhostPirate, everybodys friend Geno) and they have all gone unnoticed by Stefan and Co. , as if the server doesn't matter. And this was BEFORE Zone or Graal3D was even being planned, hell, they were talking about Graal for a gameboy, rather then notice the threads upon threads that condemned the game..

What can I say other then Blame Stefan. "Blame Canada, blame Canada!"

Thanks for hearing me out, I just hope you all understand that unless somebody physical chokes Stefan, I doubt he is going to take much notice of this thread - or hell, even the fact that the 1-3 month periods gaping his logging onto GK are usually just for "updates" , which suck as much ass as everything else..

I've been there for GK, I've been a player since it openned, and now all I can do is point and laugh at the server, for it has been destroyed beyond repair but not only poor management, but horrible conduct from the players themselves (myself included).

Sorry, but pack up and leave now, return another day when/if GK is restored to a greater good.
