The Future of Graal: Playerworlds

[coreys]

This is an overall bad idea, but that doesn't change the fact that you are are being completely ignorant on the topic, because you apparently can't understand plain English, which is to be expected of Graalians.

1. No he doesn't want servers to share their ideas for their server to others. Nor content. He wants managers of other servers to give advice and maybe some new ideas to other servers.
2. James, what he said was in no way being a spokesperson for Graal, stop pulling **** out of your ass just because you hate Zero.
3. And, obviously Graalian logic seems to be that someone who tries to be a good Samaritan MUST be kissing ass to be a global. Oh yes, that is the only reason someone would do something like that. Look, stop thinking that everyone has to have their own selfish means for every single thing they do. Just because thats what you do, doesn't mean that's what everyone is like.

So people that pay money to have their server online, don't deserve to manage it? Odd..

I find it funny you have to run into this thread and try to be Zero's knight in shining armor because he is getting "bullyed" by the big bag graalian public. If you are going to fire off an idea that is this redicilous then you should be prepared to take the heat that comes from it.

1. No he doesn't want servers to share their ideas for their server to others. Nor content. He wants managers of other servers to give advice and maybe some new ideas to other servers.

We all do this on a daily basis, and you know what happens? Nothing!
If they are someones ideas, why would they give them away so someone else can use them and get power and players off of it?

2. James, what he said was in no way being a spokesperson for Graal, stop pulling **** out of your ass just because you hate Zero.

I dont pull **** out of my ass because I hate him I pull **** out of my ass because I can, its not my fault if when I pull it, it makes perfect sense. I dont like him for a lot of other reasons.

In bold is the word of choice. Then he goes on to try to make an Official meeting, after having talked with the "higher ups" then he brings us this "OMG HEUG GRAAL MEETING".

Give it up its obvious.

3. And, obviously Graalian logic seems to be that someone who tries to be a good Samaritan MUST be kissing ass to be a global. Oh yes, that is the only reason someone would do something like that.

On graal, yes. Power drives everything. Players dont just rise up and try to make a buisness that has had them work for years for free without expecting something back. You think he is sitting behind his monitor going "Man, i am really glad that im organizing this giant meeting and i dont expect anything back from it at all ever".

You are just too blind by whatever friendship it is you two seem to have.

Look, stop thinking that everyone has to have their own selfish means for every single thing they do.

Im pretty sure his little act on Maloria was selfish too, but hey, track record speaks on its own im sure you dont need me to tell you that.

Just because thats what you do, doesn't mean that's what everyone is like.

Sounds like ***** envy to me really. I mean wait Vash, that is what you do isnt it? Im unconvinced by your stats.

To wrap this up, quit being blind, if anything really comes from this, besides Zero getting some kind of global job I will be seriously suprised. So much I might actually have to pretend I like him.

Footnote for Zero: Why would you want to only get your server passed based on the fact you participated in some stupid meeting, instead of getting it passed because it has quality content? That dosent make sense.

You want the Managers of every major classic/hosted server to get together and share their material so we can make a Super-Server for an average playercount of 500 people, in hopes of drawing millions of people around the world into playing a Zelda-Ripoff with only 3 options of gameplay?

My personal interpretation of this is that Mr. Zokemon aka Zero wants the people who have had a past success in the management of this game via their playerworlds to get together and attempt to work together to help better the game (i.e. getting more people to play it and restore the game to what it used to be so that all the playerworlds don't suck ass anymore), thereby showing our own initiative as people who have dedicated parts of ourselves to it and disassociating ourselves with the usual "blame cyberjoueurs, we shouldn't have to do any more work" state of mind.

The op here has already said multiple times that it doesn't have anything to do with selfish gain (i.e. sharing material), so I am sure that none of that will happen.


I will talk to the people in Delteria about this.

no u.

Just because he says it isnt for personal gain means it isnt? If I pick up your TV and walk away and you catch me, and I say im not stealing it, does it mean im not?

This is very correct. No one will be sharing ideas about their server development (unless they wish to o_O). It will mostly be my team sharing models and ideas for the Managers to use and possible things they should and can do if they want to have their server adapt to the changes in Graal that will be taking place of the next course of time.

I also seemed to not know that I can't edit the post after so many hours so I guess I will have to just delete this thread when I have a big update and make a new one :-/

I don't exactly see the point of this get together, though it's a nice cause, yes, but unrealistic.

I work no where except for GK sir. If you think I manager Maloria, think again. I quit already.

And for everyone:
Please stop derailing my thread. If you have a problem with me or what I am doing, you may take it up with me but I have done nothing to earn your disrespect. I am trying to help ALL Graal servers by giving them my own advice and ideas and the advice and ideas of others. There is no selfish gain in this motive.

[coreys]

lol, Inferno I love your reason for deleting your own post there. And it seems the **** came in and did her thing. Took longer than I thought it would. =)

And yeah Zero, you're trying to help all of Graal. But stick with the other thing you were going to do. Cause I don't think this is going to work too well.

Vash, you don't even know what I am doing. It isn't an "attempt" at something. It is simply a supplement to what already is. People don't want to participate? Fine. They will have to be left in the dust.

I commend you on what you are trying to do, but there probably wont be enough people to care enough to help you. Good luck.

Plain and simple were a a bunch of servers and were all rivals. A lot of us are still friends and all but don't expect us to be blabbing out any sort of idea to the public. Think out what your doing next time. Thats like apple and MS getting together and sharing their ideas for the OS.

Next time?
This thing is already rolling and more and more servers join by the day. What are you talking about?

And I don't know how many more times I will have to say this but:
It is NOT a sharing of development ideas! It is for the well being of servers and to also help them with Management approches and other various things to improve the staff life on all servers. It is more of a lecture then a meeting but discussion is encouraged.

You do a miserable job at explaining this part and thats where your thread fails so hard.

If you would explain these things then you might be on track with me.

Question 1:

Who are you

Question 2:

being who you are does that give you a right to speak of "Changes in graal that are taking place in the next course of time".

Question 3:

"Changes in graal that are taking place in the next course of time" what does that even mean.

[zokemon]

I'm sorry I can't explain more. You will have to talk to me personnaly and be someone elligable for this meeting for me to give you the confidential information.

I got bored at around post #18 and I am very tired so if I say something that was previously said, sorry. I really think graal's main problem is not the playerworld/classic server content, but the advertisement or lack there of. Really from what I have seen graals advertisements are very poorly written and bizarrely laid out as if they where written and sent out in a frantic rush, and hasn’t been updated in at least five years. They are advertising it as the typical unchanging mmorpg when really graal's biggest advantage is its always changing there is always new content at least somewhere on graal's vast sea of playerworlds if anything they would be more successful if they started advertising it as a development engine. All of those little rpg maker (95/2k/2k3/xp/etc..) junkies would absolutely love to make/work on an easy point and click multiplayer engine which for the most part graal is. The admins of existing servers should stop trying to recycle the existing graal player base by advertising their server on other often times more successful servers, and start advertising online trying to pull in new players. Although I have briefly discussed this with Stefan and he agreed with me I doubt it has been given any second thought. Anyways anyone who made it this far thanks for reading my entire long-winded rant.

Ack, spacing...! The point has been made plenty of times, that Graal needs to improve their advertising. Results = NULL.
