this needs to be discussed

Yeah, see, that's the problem. You spend your days waiting for miracles to happen, and it's not their job to do your work for you.

You need to realize that, despite the fact that you pay to play, Graal Staff owes you nothing. People pay for development space (servers) and to be able to interact with the work of others. That, if you ask me, should be enough. Updates will come when they can. The best anyone can do is make good use of what they've got.

I wonder why successful games don't adopt such a foolproof system.

Sandbox games like SL don't cater to individual user 'wants' either. They are focused on their own projects, and leave most of the in-game content up to their players.

i've stated several times that i am not a developer. i, personally, cannot develop. i can't do it. i don't know how many times i need to say this: I AM NOT A DEVELOPER i am a player. i play graal for it's video game aspect, not it's developing platform

that said, how do you expect graal staff to owe us nothing? the game is in our hands, and the game is dying. when the game was in the hands of the creator, it flourished. people can pay all they want for server support and use of graal's game engine, and yes updates will eventually come. but the updates are not what we want. the servers being made are pathetic compared to what has been made in the past - and they were made with less up-to-date material no less! you're saying it's fine if the owners of their game let it die, and i agree. but if it's in our hands to do something, and we do nothing, then we are no better than the owners

i made this thread because i know that we are on our own. it's been this way for awhile, and it's about time we started acting like it. we need to organize, we need to prepare, and we need to take action. don't say that people like myself, who are trying to get people who CAN do something to get into action, are the "cancer killing graal" because i'm currently doing more to "save graal" than you are - a developer! stop spouting your self-righteous bull**** and "take a step back for a moment" pessimism. if it's up to us, then lets get something done (and i mean that in the most friendly-smiling optimistic way i possibly can, because if nothing happens then ****s done, we might as well stop posting altogether)
