About the new $15 pay policy ect...

okay it is said that free playerworlds will get the same features as p2p for paying the 15 dollars now... so my question is, whats the point of making a p2p playerworld now? Stefan said that playerworlds that earn it will get a npc server if they are good as a free server so... why dont faheria and others go free? they are good so they would get a npc server and it would definately attract players yeah?

They don't get all of the P2P features right away.
Stefan basically said they will have to "earn" the right to use those features.

Blah, we might have to retool the stat system now, I dunno if it goes through NPCServer or not assuming we lose NPCserver, but I think we have good scripts.

Since it is already a P2P server, it will probably stay the same.

He said that if he thinks the PW is good enough, he will grant them a NPC Server. Oh, and all PW restrictions are lifted, as soon as this plan takes effect.

But he also said that not every server will get an npc server, that just ruins the whole idea. Like I wouldn't mind seeing Classic have some cool stuff like Graal 2001 has, but I don't really want to see other servers have an npc server

Classic with hats and lighting effects? Are you SURE you want this?

Well.. not hats, but certainly lighting effects and better gani's. When I was a newbie, the first server I went to was Graal Classic. You have to make it a good server and you have to make it look very appealing if you want people to pay for it. At it's state, if I was someone new to Graal coming onto Graal Classic and saw what I saw, I would not be enticed to pay for it as much as I would if there were more interesting things on it.

Besides, I recall Thym saying that there will be some Graal 2001 content on Graal Classic, which I am looking forward to. Come May 1st, I expect to see myself on Graal Classic a lot more often.

NO HATS PLEASE!!

They ruined Graal2001 with inflated prices and such. I like Classic the way it is, but I'm also in favour of it going p2p, so that lighting effects and other cool stuff can be induced.

Time for bed. Night.

Planned Classic stuff -
Baddy Skins
Halos for newbie saints (hat90)
A proper day/night that doesn't rely on backpals

Might integrate some more fun stuff eventually.

You might even finally be able to just incorporate 100 AP for newbies again. Which could be rather fancy.
