Graal reminds me of all these commercials I see these days on TV with rap in them--trying way too hard to be 'cool'.

You know, we're not saying this stuff because we want to screw you over... it's the truth, the new site looks terrible. Oh, and not to mention it's horrible to navigate.
I agree strongly with the navigation. If you're a new player, you have no idea what playerworlds, kingdoms, etc are. There should be one site, not multiple sites. And that one site should have information about the types (playerworlds, zone, kingdoms, etc)

Unixmad said he knew this about a month after the new website was uploaded. I guess you've got to get your moneys worth (lol.. if it was paid for.. lol..) and use it for a while. No mention of a new site though, but it's probably best to look forward than to use up old work.

He chose bread over a new, nice website.

Was the new website even really necessary? It looked fine before, there was need to change it. If anything, it should've went back to its older looks.

Can't we just consider this true for almost ALL criticism directed toward Graal?

I mean... I don't constantly complain about GK by some motive of wanting to "screw over" Graal. I just want to play the damn game and have fun

It would be nice if the word 'consistency' meant anything to our lovelies in charge, but as far as I can tell, it doesn't. At least nothing important, anyway. There's this amazing thing called marketing psychology, it deals with all sorts of issues like product recognition and the mere exposure effect. If any sort of consideration was put into Graal dealing with these things at all, we'd do so much better as a game.

It's actually laughable how much the way this game is run actually works against the potential of the game. It's kinda like watching someone try to fly a sailboat like a kite so they can somehow harness wind power.

Nice to see nothing's changed in the years I've been gone though.

It offended me greatly that he puts more value on bread, a very cheap food, than he does on Graal

It offended me greatly that he thought paying for bread (which is most likely freshly baked, if he's buying it daily like he said) is parallel to us paying for Graal. Graal is more like stale bread.

I'm surprised Stefan, Darlene, or unixmad haven't unnecessarily deleted this thread yet for what they call "bashing"
