And quit with the 'I'm going for the classic look crap.' Because, even though you may be, no one will play your server if it's doing the 'classic look.' Most people don't play the revivals of servers that originally had the classic look just because they aren't fun and get boring after about 10 minutes.

The only reason any of us like the classic look is because it brings back some nostalgia from our old Graalian days. The only playerbase you are going to get is a few oldbies who hop on for a few minutes and then run off. New players have no reason to play. They have bigger and better servers to go to.

Scrap the project and try again.

I'd rather oldbies than noobies anyway, we are taking a step away from the clasic look, we're relying on things like music, quests, etc to bring back that clasic feel if you dont like it, you're in luck, DR1 and 3 will have little to no clasic elements in them...I do miss clasic graal ;( i wish people could see the beauty of levels with plain grass, and a few taller areas thrown in XD now that i think back, i should have just used the old tileset anyway, about the tileset, we are working on a new one that will change the feel of DR a lot

You don't understand what I'm saying. Let's say that your playerworld was put on the classic playerlist today. After a week you would have an average player-base of less than 5.

For what reasons? btw, I still haven't released the koolest, most origional part of DR yet and to those who have only recently gotten a VIP account, to make a playerworld perhaps? It would explain why you judge DR without playing it. Let me tell you something-the masses are asses. You can't belive what you hear from those who don't know much themselves. Rely only on your own oppinion, play DR a bit. You'll see

I am sure that it will change all of our minds.

The masses are asses? Did you get that from one of your mass-produced emo songs?

Listen, I was nice before, and then you had to come back at me with that, so I'm done being nice.

Your server sucks. The levels are horrible and even the GFX and Scripting aren't anything special. You have shown no originality, and have shown nothing that would entice anyone to play your server. At this point, the only reason I would play is to laugh at the reasoning you spent $99.

Back off. There is not one single person that wants to play on levels that look like that. When people say that they like the 'classic' look, they are most likely not referring to that. That is rediculous. Those are absolutely horrid.

And guess what? Until you learn to take constructive critisism, not only will your piece of crap server not go anywhere, none of any of your future endeavors will either if you don't learn to take a little advice from some people that have been in your sitation before, jackass.

Mykel is actually being nice in this statement. There could be a whole lot more said about this horrible server. I have said it was bad since day 1. Excal is about 5 years to late for his kind of server. People now what creative servers. They want serves with stuff they haven't seen before. I don't mean like a cool weapon that explodes in 4 different spots on the screen. They want original, graphical and well scripted servers.

I wouldn't play this server with Googi's hands.
