And on a side note I'd just like to say thanks to everyone for the largely positive comments. I'm still interested in anybody with GFX and GANI experience, btw. Competent scripters are also welcome.

Mine was extremely positive! Morrowind kicks ass.

Screenies look amazing. Hope to see Delt up and running again.

And you meet your first friend Jiub, then you get throwed out of the ship and you have too speak with a creepy old man.

Then you run out in the wilderness and get owned by a Rat.

Good times indeed.

I always roleplayed that I killed Jiub and stole his identity.

LOL

I've done that too!

I've also made a character that was his "brother", and he was named Tiub.

I rep+ too.

i think delteria had his chance to growing his back to community. and simple failed to do so.

So put it offline, and give a new server there spot.

[Mykel]

Finally. I've been begging someone to put up screenshots of the beautiful server. I've been around for years, and although I've never really developed for it, I've gotten to see the server grow and grow. The amount of work that Sandz and Tiamat have put into it is absolutely ridiculous.

Anything new, Clo?

Delterians care. Despite the dead server and relative lack of development (considering the entire time line), the Delteria forums are decently active. It is pretty much a separate community. I guarantee you people still care.

the forums active with people complaining about things that always seem to be simular threads of people also complaining about it.

if you cant see that after a while if nothings changed in weeks, that its pointless to keep going on and on about it, becouse it is ovius on what the situation is.

This is actually cool.

What does it matter to you, exactly, what the Delterian community does with Delteria? Or who cares about it? I care about it. And I refuse to play Graal regularly on any other server until Delteria returns. If it doesn't, neither will I. The game of Graal itself sucks and some of the guys I've met on Delteria are like a second family to me and I know a lot of the other guys feel the same. So you may think that the community doesn't care about the server, but we do.

Doesn't this thread defeat the purpose of your comments anyways? If Cloven didn't care, do you think he'd waste his time looking for serious scripting and GANI help? I highly doubt it. He, and the rest of us, all want to see Delteria back up and running at it's fullest.

Why would anyone give up on a project that they've invested so much time in effort into? The amount of time that people like Sandz, Tiamat, Cloven, Riot, Shunt, etc have all put into Delteria can not be understated and should not be diminished at all. You telling Delteria to just give it up is a big slap in the face to all the work that's been done already.

Here's an 'ovius' situation: You're not Delterian. You don't pay for the development costs of the server, nor do you work on it. In fact, you have nothing to do with Delteria. So why don't you just move along? Let Delterians worry about Delteria and you can go worry about something else...like taking an elementary spelling and grammar class.

This thread is appealing for staff from a pool of Delteria players?

Where did I say that, Rufus? Perhaps you'd like to stick some more words in my mouth? Either that or your reading comprehension is pretty damn low. However, we both know you're not stupid.

From what I read from Cloven's post, this thread is appealing for qualified staff members specifically in the needed areas of scripting and GANIs. Not for comments like:

"i think delteria had his chance to growing his back to community. and simple failed to do so."

"So put it offline, and give a new server there spot."

"if you cant see that after a while if nothings changed in weeks, that its pointless to keep going on and on about it, becouse it is ovius on what the situation is."

"it is ridiculous how delteria have no playercount for years now,
dont they get it? that only a handfull is willing to care?"

"and? a boohoo here and a boohoo there, here a boo, there a hoo,cant you realise that it is dead and people just do not care."

Now if you can show me in Cloven's post where he asks for people's comments on what direction he should take for the server, including whether or not it's pointless for him to look for help and if he should even continue working on the server and should just shut it down altogether, well, by all means, you just go ahead and prove me wrong.

I didn't say you said anything, I asked you a question.

I don't know if you've noticed but we're on a discussion board here; People are entitled to their opinions, and they're going to express them. I'm not agreeing with anything that has been said, but your replies are just obnoxious and I feel as though they're causing embarrassment to a decent server and a nice staff team. A little less "you know nothing!! Delteria 4 eva@!1!" and those opinions might have been changed, but instead you've acted hot headed and emotive over nothing, hid behind the server's name and past, and just made the whole thing seem stand-offish and unappealing.

Anyone who is interested in working on Delteria, I highly reccomend you ignore Nelm's posts. Delteria's staff and players are not like this at all.

Welcome to the GraalOnline Forums bro

[Matt]

I haven't been active really on these forums for a few months i guess ( i just noticed this thread ), but those screen shots are amazing. Just what i expected from Delteria. I will see what and when i can contribute to you guys when i get more active here soon.

Good luck though guys, Delteria's come along way from when i started back in late '01, and the best part about this 'new' Delteria i think, is that everything from the screen shots, makes me think that it will still feel like my home server when it's done.

Oh come on, give me a break Rufus. You clearly quoted my last paragraph out of context from the entirety of the post and implied that I meant that only Delterians belonged in this thread, when I clearly meant that posts like the ones I mentioned had no place here. Let's not bend the truth here.

Thanks for informing me of what happens on a discussion board. I wasn't aware of what took place on these things.

Perhaps I was a little hot-headed and emotive, but there are people who have been gunning for Delteria to be gone for a while now. Whether it be that they have a personal vendetta against the server itself or some of it's staff, I don't know. Regardless, this is Cloven's staff recruitment thread and isn't the place for people to come and start their 'take Delteria down' and 'let it die' rhetoric.

I apologize to anyone who found my posts 'obnoxious'.

Why anyone would look at a player's post on the forums and have that be a deciding factor in whether or not they want to be staff there is beyond me. In any case, I in no way claim to be affiliated with Delterian management. I am however, an overzealous Delterian loyalist and won't hesitate to go after those who come at Delteria, just as loyal players of other servers would do for theirs.

Why did you come here with your ignorant replies then?

give me a break.

[DustyPorViva]

Well there are two groups here(well, maybe not even groups).

1) The loyalist, self-proclaimed players of Delteria. They're representing what one can expect to encounter when they log onto Delteria.

2) The outsiders. These people can be critical of Delteria, either with good intentions or bad... but in the end if someone wants to play Delteria they will, and they won't have to worry about running into them.

Who do you think is really going to give Delteria a worse name?

[Matt]

Considering the typical Delterian is nothing new to Graal, i'd say none of Delteria's players would give the server a bad name, at all.

[nullify]

As one of these "typical Delterians", I'd have to agree with Matt on this one.

[Fulg0reSama]

I feel like a mutt in these breeds.

I am not a delterian BUT I do support their work for I did work there once.

[DustyPorViva]

You guys were missing the point: These loyalist Delterian's give Delteria a worse name/impression than the people who criticize it.

[Demisis_P2P]

he's right. this nelm guy is giving off some terrible vibes.

[nullify]

Delteria's community just likes to flame people who question them, that's all. Spend any time on the Delteria forums and you'd become shockingly aware of this.

That might just be you who thinks that, sir.

To be honest, Delterians are not really any different from what you'll find most anywhere on Graal. The mentality on the game over all is extremely juvenile, despite many of the players being comparatively older. There may be some unique differences here and there, but for the most part many people on Graal just can't help but choose to act infantile. I think it's a shame, especially with those who otherwise may be quite intelligent. I honestly believe that true Delterians are the ones remaining that just legitimately want the server to succeed, and you'll find them spread across most of the current servers. I can't tell you how many people send me PMs each time I sign on and say: "What's goin' on with Delt? I'm ready to move back."

>>
For me, this is all part of a larger problem that transcends into society and it is both frightening and disheartening.. because I honestly do have faith that we can all strive to be better. [/melodrama]
<<

In the end, I firmly believe Delteria is a server worth saving and that's why I haven't left it in almost ten years (this November). As sad as that may be, time has an odd way of establishing an emotional connection -- even unconsciously. *shrugs*

UN's loyalist players make the server unlikeable. Era's do. Zodiac's do. Every server's main playerbase is filthy and retarded, not just Delteria's.

Why else would you come here? Scumbag with ambition.
Never thought I'd see the likes of you around this place
What's the special occasion?

Regarding the deleted posts, and specifically one unnamed knucklehead: Grow up or stay out of the thread.
