i could see UN getting decimated by it too.

Unless they actually release content worth playing. I don't even see the real Classic server coming back anyways.

Same can be said about the iPhone server. What's there to do right now? Even less than you can do on the real Classic server.

Not true. You can talk to people on the iPhone server, and you can't do that on the regular classic server!

the large amount of players to interact with is some of the best content this game as a whole can offer

Like Squirt and DC have said, there is a much larger community that makes it more fun without the abundance of actual content.

I consider that a problem, though.

It's not fun for me. I don't enjoy running around as "CrAASh MCNUGGET .-*LEADER*-. [tEh iPhOWN sQuAd]".

The game doesn't run very well on my iTouch. It's a first generation iTouch anyways.

I would. Anyways I'm sure progressive updates will come as they have already been doing. The point is that iphone graal would dominate any graal server

While a 500 playercount is impressive and all that, and certainly cool to brag about... is it really worth the strain on the server and players? How would something like having dual servers work out? 250 players on each server, with synchronized data(your account data is shared between them, so you don't lose progress between the two servers). I mean, seriously... is 250 players REALLY that different than 500, in the grand scheme of things? It's still a crap load of players, more than enough to establish a fun community with. Such a set-up could probably help with a lot of the lag and such that the servers might be handling processing all that data.

I mean, if the servers can handle the 500 playercount find then by all means dismiss this. I have no interest to splitting a server that is having no lag problems.

wish they'd play the real graal 2

With everything so community-based, since there's no real content, players might piss themselves crying.

That's the thing though, 250 is still way more than enough to have an established community. This is something done in just about every other MMO out there to lessen the server loads. To ease the pain, could have the 'server list' show how many of your friends are connected to each server.

Server 1 <--> Server 2 (Communicates with each other and syncs data)

250 Players -> Server 1 -> Synchronizes to -> Server 2
250 Players -> Server 2 -> Synchronizes to -> Server 1

And in the end, this is completely pointless. I don't think 500 players is that many players.

To Graal it is. Also, the only thing it'd synchronize was account data, on a much slower rate than processing all 500 players that are currently on.
