Why are inactive playerworlds on classic list?

Meh, no excuse for it to have 0 players all the time.

I am sure that PWA could go in there and if there is no staff members that they can probaly hire a new crew.

Good idea, because the server has 0 players. Isn't there some kind of requirement for classic servers to stay anymore?

Doesnt look like it.

As long as the server is payed for it stays I believe.

Classic servers are never payed for...

Delteria should be taken down as it's being developed on a dev server anyway. Once they finish they can bring back the Delteria server and boom.

Atlantis should just be taken down as it's dead.

Delteria is not dead though, it still has players logging on. Even if it's not much we still have them.

Maybe like, 5?

I'll have to agree with Crono here. I do like Delteria and all, but its been dead for over a year now. The most I ever see on there is about 20 - 25 people, and thats during its tourney hours if the ET's are even on to host the tournies. We are under HEAVY development right now and due to our shortage of active staff members we probably won't be done anytime soon. I am probably one of the biggest advocates of Delteria, but I honestly would completely understand if it were to be taken off the classic tab until the new overworld is completed. I saw a couple of posts from random people trying to defend Delteria, all from people who actively play on other servers, and my only response to them is that if you feel Delteria is a good server and deserves to stay on the classic list you guys should try to log on a little bit more. Right now it's 4:00 on a wednsday, primetime for Graal playing, yet Delteria's current playercount is 0.

Maybe one day people will flock back, but it obviously isn't going to be anytime soon, just like SL, and Atlantis, it needs a major makeover before it is going to appeal to the players again, and even after development is done, it is very iffy as to weather or not people will leave UN, Npulse, Era, Classic, and Mal to actively play on Delteria again. You never know, tomorrow the playercount could jump to around 50 and stay there for a while, but as of right now Delteria has no business being on the classic tab.

[Crono]

I myself have been playing Delteria since 2001. It's sad to see it with 0 players and **** but logging on won't help. Delteria needs it's 50-80 player playerbase back.

I say delteria goes off the classic list and we wait for new delteria to pop up. Good thing about this is that new players will flock when it comes up since its a "new" server.

Since when has a server appeared and had a higher playercount than UN on a 100% consistent basis? Never.

It's not going to happen. A newly released (not new, newly released) server will appear and get some hype for a day or so, and then it ends up falling down in the playerlist.

The only server that really competes with UN is Era, and that's probably because the server is so incredibly unique (compared to the rest of Graal, for sure). People go there for a change.

I'm going to use my 8hour post for this thread, the thread is a joke itself. People putting down on a server, mostly midbies you didnt even play when SL were first put up thinks players haven't played there, YES SL had quite a few players in the past.

It were going down, playercount were low at certain times but we used to have a playercount up to 30-35 people at certain times,
which actually is better THEN most of the servers, also it had it times when there were 0 people on SL and 20 people on UN.

That James need to put down from management, is the dumbest thing i've heard, it doesn't get better because someone else takes over, without James SL would have been dead a long time ago, because at a certain time no one in high management had the interest to take over the responsibility. James knows what he's doing, "ir13" or whatever your nick is, perhaps you should get some experience in management skills and development skills, ideas etc etc before you even lay a comment about it,
I highly doubt that you can do anything, besides hosting event and saying warpto, no offence really.

Other then that, no problem that SL is put down at the moment, at least I didn't read all posts about the whining in here, I should consider myself lucky because most of the pathetic posts came from people who don't know how to upload levels.

30 players on a classic server isn't impressive, seeing that private servers which r gold/vip only hit... 50+?

[Loakey_P2P]

actually with today's graal count youd be surprised to see thirty people on the same server at the same time . and dont give me no bs about how they excede that number couse yes they do , for like the four hour's kids arnt in school or their bed . and for the rest of the day , surprise hardly anyone is on . now ive noticed a few thing's looking back throu this post . for one infernix , you said something about how it looked the last time you were on sl but really how long have you held a job at sl ? a few week's to a day . the last time i hired you it wasnt even a week and you were missing . chris you said something about sl holding a player count of fifty to sixty and then dropped off , i hate to disagree with you but when i came to sl the player count was 80 to 100 . and some times over a hundred . it's easy sit back and complain all the time , but less easyer then that is to just walk away and go to another server . you people are starting to make me sick , instead of stepping up and doing something about it youd all rather just sit back , complain and publically blame the server's failure on it's staff . when in all actaullaty if it wasnt for these staff your blameing the server would be long gone with no hope of being finished , seen again or even remmber except for the few nerd's that wish to live in the past . what happened in sl's past in it's past , we need to start looking forward and not back . everyone want's to talk about what happened on sl back then , well if your that conserned build yourself's a time machine and go live in the past forever . the rest of us that are still determinded to do this will be moving forward . and it dont matter if sl does get shut down . we will buy another server and push forward . and the more you all sit here and bash the server publically just give us that extra drive . we will do this just despite you people . dont matter what you people think , or what you want , sl will be back .

Well said Loakey. *Claps* A couple proper punctuations would've made it so much better.

You are quite the funny man that pms EVERYONE about your fun server that gives out free "guns and much more",
will you PLEASE stop pming every person on every server to come and join your server, becuase frankly if I want to join your server, I JOIN IT.

Now this didn't have anything to do with your post, this doesn't have anything to do with your post either:
I would never want to play on a modern server which got every single idea from era because they are too lazy to actually think of something themselves, same tilesetstyle, the guns etc etc etc,

so there, now please stop advertising your server.

If you wanna talk about impressive playerscounts we should perhaps go back in time, way back, when classic had 500 players?
500 people thats like 2x as much at american timezones. Then you had the ghost mode, which in fact is a BIG factor why all this happened,
I think you don't know what ghostmode was, I will explain for you what ghostmode is:
At a special playercount the graalserver couldn't take in more players, so you had to sit and wait as a ghost untill some player left, usually it said like
-300 players left untill you can logon- I mean it was pointless then ofcourse,

some people decided to whine over a FREE game and got it p2p, at least we dont have to wait in ghostmode,
but we lost about 1000 players due to this.

Who to blaim really? The players that cried all day not knowing what were going to happen, I actually remember the forumpost there Unixmad announced that you would have to pay for the game,
people said "good job" "yay! we have to pay!", I guess alot of people changed their minds.
