Who thinks working times should be lowered?

[Vyse_the_Blue_Rogue]

I do.
By working times, I mean time spent crafting/farming/mining etc.
I think it should be lowered, because it shouldn't be where someone can't get up from their comp for almost an hour or they'll lose what they were working on. It should be lowered to maybe a half hour or something..
and rocks should take less time to break, and crafting times should be lowered, or we get a diamond hammer. because crafting is really a pain..
the main things I'm talking about here are farming, mining, and crafting.
who agrees?

[Androk2k1]

I agree... it took me 1 houre to craft 130 gralats (well stones for 130 gralats), and how much time did it take me to carve teh stones and then craft red? I dunno whole proceess took about 2 and a half hourse.. for 130g...

[Sjc2k1]

yes cos when i lag (which is all the time) it takes me hours to craft things and more than twice what it takes everyone else to mine

[Faheria_GP2]

hey bud, mining sucks because I lag so bad I get like 3x the hits everyone else does...Mining should be triggeraction by now, but it's still using that laggy gani-checking system. But anyways, a normal axe breaks after 8 rocks, so getting 80gralat comes at 1/2 profit :o

Stupidest bunch of newbies right here. There is already a overload of gralats and I'm sure stefan doesnt want more. See when 2k1 was created there was no gralats for a few weeks, than mining came out. Stefan didnt want alot of gralats on 2k1 so he made mining tough and not easy to make gralats. Please leave if you are that stupid.

Hi! let me explain this to you

Bomies were given away practically free on the first couple of weeks on G2k1, high-supply, medium-demand, bomies were able to be sold at 500g or so. Now 3/4 of the people on graal have no bomy, and they are rarely sold, low-supply, high-demand. Guess what? The people who got a bomy during those two weeks are now loaded! and they did nothing but enter a fake CC# at the right time! Sure, a newbie could pull the same stunt on the hat trade, but around my time-zone, most of the uploads are at 3AM. And are sold out within the minute! I mean, I go to take a crap, and the hats could have already been uploaded and sold out! Not to mention I rarely get the chance to stay up that late! Graal's economy is unfair to new players, and favors the old.

yes, but what does that have to do with working times?

You're all idiots. I'd like to see any of you try and raise money entirely by fishing. It was what we had to do for the first few days of Graal(50lb,about a half hour of work=1gralat), and just about all we had to do. I personally thought it was very fun. I got to meet a lot of new friends by fishing near other people and talking to them. Mining wasn't always as lonesome as it is now. On the first day, four or five people would help each other out, and they'd all share in the profit. Then, of course, Stefan changed it.
As for bomys, they were given away to people who won Survivors/horse races. Back when Lycia still had pride in her work, these events were fun, and only once-a-week deals. Anyone who remembers the Harmonia-Santerrian horse races can back me up on this. So, my advice to you is to shut up since you have no idea how easy money-making is now.

Apple farming should work on the "get what you give" system. If a tree only takes 30 min to farm you only get 12 apples. Trees taking one hour gives 16 apples. Trees over an hour can give more

isn't it already?
Except it takes 1 hour to 12, I think.

[mike_king]

Man you guys and girls complain alot.

[sac]

don't like working?then don't work.stay in the makret all day and wait for a apple scam and get the free apples k?

i am sorry, but i cant help but laughing.

you really shouldhave been around at the start. it was so much harder, but yet it was so much more fun. survivors were great... for 60g (which was a fortune), following admins around and picking up any gralats they might drop, which might only be 1 or 5g if you're lucky... and playing cs all day. graal was so much more fun with no money at all, and i wish all money would just be wiped, COMPLETELY.

[Lugie]

oh yes, and soccer, that was great, along with stefan giving the first couple bomies away (i got one, so har ), and the sanatarium dojo, bomy bumpers, the first auction which bomies sold at 100g... i got my second one at only 210g i think it was... yes i am bragging and being a total prick but really, deal with it. more money wont fix anything.

try playing graal without thinking about money or posessions for once, its much more fun.

Thats true. Though I subscribed on April 1st, things like that were still going around.
Events Team had position on the staff area on the playerlist, Survivors and CTF were held every hour or so everyday, and now look at it. Perhaps a even once or twice a day you get an event. Also, now it isn't part of events team to hand out cash to players after an event.
So, why have events team? Sure some of them hand out money, but basically all they are there for is to say "start"

I'm not saying events are always to have prizes, but the shear(sp?) lack of them, just really makes Graal slow..

Since Graal itself isn't too much fun anymore, and bomys are so very, very, very had to come by (as said before), I've resorted to RPing. It adds a lot of excitement to Graal - which is why I'm eagerly waiting Graal2k2.
