Uh, thanks but no thanks.
Era's problem isn't big change, in the sense that functions that require massive development.
Era needs focused change, change that is geared to solve Era's problems, both recognizable and beneath the surface.
The solutions are simple and would take a nothing more than a moderate developer or developer team all but a few weeks to complete it.
However, the impact and effect would be significant.

Era's problem with Era is, our administration doesn't know what Era's problem is.
To be honest, most of them don't even know much about Era in general.
How can they? They still focus on hiring people that are inexperienced but know how to do the most brain-dead jobs... o.O?

Who do you suggest we hire to script? And don't avoid the question, or answer with another question. Tell me who I can hire? I have PMed all scripters on forums, and I have PMed every player on UN/Zodiac/etc, about coming to Era for scripting. Hell I even offered money. So unless you can cough someone up, quit *****ing

Oh, that question is easily answered.
Yet, why would I give you that answer? Hm?
To be honest, even if you had scripters.. not much would come of it.
You're focused on fixing whats not broken, a GMAP? A fishing system? lol.
That's the least of Era's problems.
Good luck though.

Last I checked William was fairly adept at bsing GUIs and throwing together scripts.

PK money is more than enough to cover Ammo costs and most basic needs (some food, capps/lw pots) what more do you need? You'd make significant amounts if the Gang System was completed and raids became active again since you get like 200% more money for killing gang members (~$20 as apposed to 1-10)

ughhh man did u read what i wrote??? covering ammo/food is useless, the rate at which u make money by pking should be equal to the rate at which u make money by mining so that era has an enjoyable way of earning money, therefore ppl will no longer see making money as a boring task but as a normal component of being active and pking
u guys say i only suggest things for my own benefit, right? think again cuz this idea would immensely penalise me since way more ppl would be making money, lowering the effective value of cash since there is more of it or easier to obtain
if u don't understand simple business/motivation concepts do not bother to reply

Seriously, I can't read what you write.

if you can't write without simple understanding of grammatical and spelling concepts, don't bother posting.

Your spelling is horrible. Also, this is a lame excuse on why you have bad grammer. This just makes you sound like more of a *****.

Actually it is.
If you kill a player every 2-5 seconds (average time to get one of those rocks down.. with level 0-40 ish) and then they are randomized (refined) as 6-10$ kills, it would theoretically be the same.

Even more-so if you accomplished that feat whilst killing gang members.

The difference here being, players aren't in unlimited supply in a pk level (as rocks seemingly are) and players don't stand still until you kill them every single time.
