I don't agree
:P
3 were removed, 3 were placed back up (Maloria, SL, and Delteria again)
It seems like the PWA is putting up a PW for almost every one it removes...

and to SkyKnight... if the server goes private, players can still log on by typing in the name under the server list... N-Pulse just wouldn't be clickable (if that makes sence) It would show that the server is working on things... and not in a finished state (which you can only assume when a server is on the classic tab)

There is no need for N-Pulse to go private, it has a large player base, and with UM as manager it will grow even more.

What happened to those rules? Like if a server changes owners more than 3 times, it would have to go private and pass inspecion again? Or the one where if a server wants to upload a new overworld and stuff, they have to go private, and pass inspection with the new overworld? Or were those both just rumors?

Playerbase isn't everything.. I've seen some hosted PW's with a lot more players than half of the classic ones... but you don't see them moving to the classic tab. Why? Quality I'm guessing... and if the quality of the playerworld can stop it from going on the classic list, then I think playerworld quality should be able to remove it from the classic list. I thought that the PWA made it clear that they were not going to let playercount corrupt their views on if a PW should be public or not... and that it would be based on server quality. But I don't think that's the case. =x If N-Pulse was a private, or even hosted PW right now, could it pass PWA inspection? I think that is the big question. Because if it can't pass the inspection, then why is it up? Shouldn't all playerworlds be held to the same quality standards?

Personally, I think Moonie's management skills will be directly proportional to her moderating skills on these forums.

N-Pulse was even more down the drain when they owned it.

Yeah, it is currently mine. I'd still be willing to merge with N-Pulse if Moonie got management, but I'd talk to everyone participated with the server before we do anything.

Doesnt matter what they had "Planned", SaDiE was a horrible manager, stuck up beyond belief, and all they did was release things people hated, but told them to deal with it because it was what they were getting.

N-Pulse has had the least stable management of any server ever because the wrong people always end up there.

When was the last time there was a manager who didnt ignore everything the players said, didnt do things Their way or the highway, and would hire people even if they disliked them, for the betterment of the server itself?

Through the history of this place right down to Geovaine it has been ran by very controling managers who liked to have everything their way. I'm offering something a bit different than that, because I know how it is playing a server and working on a server where the manager considers themselves the judge, jury, and exocutioner of everything.

Instead of planned, it should be developed but it's a bit to late for that. The stuff they released as managers (Juli + Sadie) where to keep the players entertained whilst the other staff worked on new N-Pulse.

Wasn't you manager at one point?

I don't play Graal so I don't know however whilst I was manager of Rudora I recall asking the players before I did anything to the overworld.

Your running down the same path as the other managers, you've got some stuff "planned" but you havn't told anyone these things other than staff. How in hell can you say that when you've already gone against your word?

When was the last time Globals didnt have to be called to NP all the time? When was the last time that the owners and the globals believed NP was being ran well, and didnt have to worry about it? When was the last time there were no constant complaints on the staff on NP? There was a time...
You are wrong, NP has not always been unstable.

I was only controlling up to a point, unlike others, I believe running a pw is a business...people pay to play Graal, and its servers. I believe running staff should be on a professional level, and that the staff need to act professional, and treat the players with respect. I also believe that the staff should be treated in the same way.
What the players want is very important, but as you said yourself, it is hard to give them what they want, when they all want something different.

I still think that the stuff that was up when I left would have been great if added onto, it was a mixture of old and new, it was a comprimise with the players, as old players wanted the old stuff, and new players wanted something nice to look at...so I modified the old levels, and made them look better with updated looks, and added old levels such as quest levels.
I didnt hear many complaints on what was done, but I could not find the staff to continue with updates, and to do the things we wanted done, so I stepped down to give someone else a chance...all of our hard work was then destroyed for the really old NP levels, and still I kept hoping....
When Zido became Manager, I knew NP as we all knew it was gone, and some day NP itself would be gone, noone listened.

So, here we are today, with nothing....

Also, noone even knows what you are doing with NP, all they know is you are working on a new OW, they have been told nothing, so how is this the players wishes?

To Wan:
No, I was never manager, and yes, I do tell people my plans. Don't assume what you don't know.

To Moonie: Although you and MG did have mant faults as managers, and many people did not like the time you managed, I will agree that the management was "Stable" then. But after you left, that's when the management instability began.

Maybe putting you back will fix it, I brought you back to staff because I believed you could help, and I still do. I'm not really FIGHTING you for the spot, I believe either of us could do it, I just want my fair chance.
