N-Pulse was always behind it's time with poor management. N-Pulse used to have a frequent playercount of 60 players, below UN, but still good enough to enjoy the server. However, as time went on, the server didn't make any new updates or create any new events so players started to move to UN. Therefore, i'm wondering what you're going to do to start getting players back since quests won't achieve anything.

Quests are only good for a quick 10 minute thing, and then you're done and you never have to do it again since their is no point.

But my main question, the same as jerrets, is "What will you offer that UN isn't already?"

PS: I'm not faulting you for getting rid of Rebirth since I honestly never saw it as something that could be completed in the first place.

What is there on the server now besides events that brings people on? I was handed a wasteland and am doing what I can to get in going again. I have gotten lots of requests to get my hands on these backups, but at the time Rebirth was looking promising with the deadline that me and Abjorn set.

You will actually be surprised how many players go onto servers JUST to do quests. And if you think quests only take 10 minutes obviously it has been awhile since you have done an N-Pulse quest.

Figured that was implied with the original post about bringing back old N-Pulse. Once the 1st release is done there will be updates done on a regular basis, this would include events as well as quests, items, etc... I am not willing to make the mistakes of past management that got N-Pulse into the state it's in. And with my answer earlier, I have gotten many requests to do this, but wanted to hold off because of the promise that was shown in getting Rebirth off the ground in a timely fashion.

Rebirth hasn't been gotten rid of, simply put onto the back burner because it is not realistic at this point in time to get completed.

You're still not answering the question, just acting like a politician. N-Pulse should not be on the server list and should be removed until it is actually playable. If it can't get up to that standard it shouldn't return, simple as that. Currently you can't even walk around the main map without it breaking, and players should not be exposed that. Weak.

No you just didn't like my response to the question.

If you are going to turn this into another take N-Pulse off the server list thread just stop now because I am sick and tired of hearing it. If you have an issue take it up with Bell.

No? You just didn't answer what N-Pulse would offer that Unholy Nation doesn't already.

The portion that you quoted wasn't addressing that part.

I used to play N-Pulse regularly, and then it became the greatest staff hangout to grace Graal.

My favorite version of N-Pulse was one where onlinestartlocal had a really large black board of heads, supposedly of the people who played it and were "famous" or something. Then one day I log in to see that it was replaced by some weird 3-level hangout with a pokey stick, and then a ****ty version of N-Pulse came out.

I know which one you are talking about, and that is actually the OSL that I am trying to get my hands on.

So I guess you're just going to delete any posts that ask any questions about N-Pulse?

The first page should have been a pretty big hint about the direction of this thread.

My response wasn't sarcastic in the least, but it was deleted (and this reply will probably be deleted too).

What was it? I do not recall of it for I probably didn't read it due to being deleted

I did say mostly.
