Andy did a really nice job rescripting a lot of Era's major codes, but Graal NATs have huge egos. they don't like using code that wasn't designed by them. in the end it winds up wasting time, but what can you do? everything Andy did on Era Dev was thrown away. it's a shame.

Not exactly. You're speaking without knowing exactly what "good code" is, I think. Andy's code worked fine, and was somewhat organized, but it was difficult to build on to, and we wanted to make a lot of changes to the way systems work. We're now way past what Andy did anyway on the former Dev server.

Anyway, no Jr. I literally just explained the types of personality Ocelot and Sales have. I said for Management, I'd prefer a conductor over a constructor.
Ocelot has the conductive personality/ideals, and Sales has the constructive.

I never said being a Conductor is always better than being a Constructor.

Let see the pros and cons of "building a new server" rather than fixing this one, and when I said fixing, I didn't mean entirely on Scripts. (Which is what you all seem to be jabbering about. If the Dev Server is just renewed scripts, what a goddamn disappointment.) Era has many conductive problems as well.
If you try to bypass fixing them by creating newer forms. You'd most likely face problems which the original method prevented / didn't have.

New Server
Time: Astronomical (Speculative)
Chance of Success: Unknown
Players #: Unknown

Fixing This Server
Time: (With the current scripting power), I'd give it less than a month and a half (script-wise), and the rest can be mapped/worked out while thats going on, Era has many conductive-problems as well. Ex. Gangs, Businesses, Events, etc.
Player #: Can't do anything but increase.

You're supporting someone who:
1) Allowed corruption throughout his staff team.
2) Was always drunk on RC and wasn't able to even remotely make a logical decision.
3) Rude to people and harassed people.

He's not a "conductor" according to your standards.

Also, way to make a personal attack!

Possibly because every game relies on code in its roots. On Graal, we don't have to care about the whole engine crap, but I still see the coding part as the most important. Most gameplay affecting bugs are caused by code, sometimes levels and rarely images. New features need to be coded. And if you can't build on a system because it's spread over the whole server for whichever reason, it sucks, and has to be redone to allow better workflow in the future.
