I agree here.

The quality of Graal and it's staff has degraded very far over the years.

The fact that any player can be staff is part of what makes Graal unique. It also is what continues to keep graal running. For the players, by the players so to speak.

Corruption is only a small starting issue.

Corruption was a problem with Maloria through it's Classic days, though no longer, and Zodiac has some big corruption issues. It's not just a private playerworld or beginning playerworld problem.

And by letting just about anyone be staff Graal's kind of kicking itself in the ass.

But then again all these dev servers are making Graal money so...

Corruption has always been an issue with Graal, and unix never did put a stop to it. I tried, but, eh. That was a long time ago.

Some of my best people honestly were nobodies out of the general population. Good people do show up and work their way up in the ranks and help balance the corruption problems. But many of those people left long ago.

People just need to be a bit more careful and have a bit more accountability.

Man, you were crazy, and now you're here preaching like a Sage to the noobs.

At worst, now we have cops who don't punish the criminals. When you were chief, the criminals were the cops.

I would say one good thing is that some of us oldbies are now all grown up and have matured a lot of the years. I know I started Graal at 12 and was really immature. Now I'm 19 and have gone through major changes in my life.

Really? I can't imagine how worse it was back then compared to now.

j/k

I feel the same, I remember when I was still a newbie like 5-6 years ago. There was this level on Doomsday where you had to go through this giant spiral to get some money, and it would refresh every time. The thing took so long to do that it wasn't worth doing it over and over again to get more money, so I used questionable materials to
speed up to process. *cough*

Edit: Here we go, someone pointed this out to me awhile ago: http://forums.graalonline.com/forums...ad.php?t=39862

dlang is my old account.

I like that anyone can be staff.

Like that, people have the chance to build up their own things if they dont like existing things.

This; They should just work for existing servers - is idiocy - as like 10 servers or so can't fit the taste of every graalian around.

Problem is that there are too many immature kids running around there taking up staffpositions while someone else is out there that applied and is more cappable.
