To begin with Graal needs to be added to Xfire. I suggested this on Xfire forums without a response from anyone. :/

*shrugs* I used to accept checks for Graal. It's quite possible to get a trusted Admin to mail stuff out, be the American Branch of Cyberjoueurs. Hell, if we can find a Graphics Design major this can be their project - design the mediae, practice producing and distributing, hell of a blip on a resume.

Someone obviously has no idea about the demographics of MMORPGs. There are people in their 60s that play Graal-like games.

Some people have actually done extensive research on MMORPGs:
The Daedalus Project

One interesting article I once came upon regarding MMORPGs discussed player opinion on how there are workers in China that spend their whole day making money on an online game and selling the virtual money for real world cash.

Edit- If I had money I'd buy a beater car like a 200SX, have it painted all black, have big pluffies on the left right and hood, and have www.graalonline.com on the sides in green below the pluffy.

Im serious.

If only we could get through to Unixmad, we could put a contest on the website to design the bumperstickers, etc...

Because, like the hub world, it is really going to save graal.

unfortunately, our ideas still get drowned out by the usual background noise of the forum (ie, Boo, I'll quit if you make me pay, etc.), and he hasn't appeared on my ICQ. And nobody wants to take the initiative anymore, just in case he objects to the core concept...
I guess I'll forum-PM him...I doubt Ibonic has any secret hotline to contact him on our behalf.

Yes, I'm not too happy he said Graal had issues, then ran off without commenting on some of these ideas

I would throw it in the bin if i recieve a graal picture in any way shape or form.

Honestly who wants to deface their property with an ugly blown up pixelated picture of your graal character when blown up the quality would look horific. Honestly the shirts look stupid enough. Their is no real graal fanbase you dont see anyone running around saying I LOVE GRAAL like some people like CS, Battlefield series, star wars, warcraft, etc. So this is a terrible idea selling merchandice is just a waste of time.

It's not like we don't read these forums. We have several things planned, and will announce them when it's time. There are around 6-7 points of the poll which are connected to those plans. It is not that easy to take part in these discussions because people take everything for granted and official when it's just opinion, and on the other hand think it's just an opinion and can make fun of it when its official.
