I wanted to reply to this with something like

"keep fighting the good fight"

but if getting back things that arent here anymore was as easy as a post on the forums we would have them back already.

Besides, first post since 2003? If you havent been here/playing recently, you wouldnt know all the bad things that went into putting the game where it is at today.

250+ on every server? That only really happened when there was one server.

But yes, constant ideas are flying around as to how to revive this game and get it back. Partially, I don't think it is possible. Other bigger games are around and we've gone from a big fish in a small pond to a tiny baby fish in a massive ocean. But, if some of the ideas (adverts, for example) were taken seriously - graal could certainly gain some ground back.

Your intelligence annoys me.

Obviously you haven't been around Graal at all, considering there was never 250+ on EVERY server.

Secondly, you can't bring those days back, they have been and gone. Please stop the tears falling.

Devil are you on your period or something? Seriously, lighten up!

Here's some old screenshots from the website:





If you posted some now there would hardly be any comparison. I can understand why someone would miss this, but I agree with you to an extent of, this was the past.

maybe not 250+ on every server but classic was always on top with 250+ and then it went down the list 250,175,150,120,100,80...etc

I didn't have the luxury of being on during that time of the day, but whenever I played classic, there were tonnes of people on in my timezone.

I would like to see a server with gameplay soon.

Don't get me wrong, each server has it's attractive qualities, but the Zelda-like gameplay that made classic addictive long enough to make friends is something that no server offers today.

For a PWA admin, you certainly haven't been reading on an up and coming Zelda server
