What do you think of the current Classic worlds?

We don't have any other options than to do with what we have. I do believe Zodiac is currently looking for graphic artists, but we have yet to find any skilled artists interested.

Actually I know a couple of people who mentioned in conversations with me that they were going to apply, but then when they questioned one of the staff members about it they were treated very badly (each person said a different name, I can't remember either of the staff members names). I think one of the staff members lead the guy who wanted to tryout in circles and tried making fun of him, and the other guy just told the dude that he wasn't good enough to work on Zodiac before he even submitted a tryout.

This was all about a month ago so what I'm about to say might not apply anymore, but maybe if you guys had some competent staff that didn't treat players like **** you would be able to find the gfx team you were looking for.

That's just asinine. I am working my ass off for Delteria. There hasn't been a single day in three months, which is when I was able to start working again, that I haven't developed. Permanently taking Delteria off of the list would do nothing more than spit on all my work and the work of many others.

I really don't care if Delteria gets taken off the list anymore, as long as it can be put back up as soon as we are ready to release the new overworld. I don't really see the point in this, but if everyone wants it to be done then so be it.

However, the idea of taking Delteria and the others off permanently is nothing more than simply trying to be destructive, and it's probably the worst idea I have ever heard.

I see the point in it:

- it's not good for Graal to have several 0 playercount servers in the list
- when rebuilding/renovating a server, there is no way to estimate a date that you'll be finished. could be two months, could be ten.
- just because your server is classic does not mean you get the advantage of totally rebuilding it and then having it be classic without passing any inspections (see: "as long as it can be put back up as soon as we are ready to release the new overworld")

I see the last point as the biggest problem. You have servers that go up and then a week later they are back under construction again and then when they finish they just re-release the server without getting passed. They could have very well made the server worse and nobody would know until they played.

I'm making the 2k1 revision and it was removed from the public list as to not cause confusion. I totally intend on getting my server passed and don't think I'm just going to say "okay I'm done, make it classic again", because "it" is no longer the same server that it originally was.

So anyone who thinks it's okay to leave their 0 playercount classic server on the list while they spend an unknown amount of time developing for a re-release, and then expects to release it without it getting passed is taking advantage of the system.

Well then it's a good thing that Delterians are so damn great at doing shit that everything they do from MV to Charge is copied/rubberstamped and used by everybody else throughout the game.

Maloria, Era, and Valikorlia didn't have much of a problem saying "okay I'm done make it classic again" as I recall (and if yall bring up hosted servers I'll kick ya in the stomach) -- but then again those are the closest examples that I can think of for when a server went up for a week on classic and then went back into Dev.. however I've only been here for four years so what do I know I'm still a noob in this group of old men (and woman).
