"Old Wars Are Best"

Why not make Classic accounts free again? But like only access the top 3 servers or something... or just completely free like they used to be.

Or at least make it 1 PM per 30 seconds, because waiting a whole minute is annoying (at least it was for me when I had trial).

Maybe only the top PW, or random one each month, this way they will buy if they want to play on their fav. server

Graal needs $$$.

It annoyed you enough to upgrade !

In my opinion, Classic (the server) should just be free.

As long as they have the other servers to play without saving. Classic isn't a popular server so much anymore, so this would probably work out. I like the idea of a random one free each month more, as it would allow people to see different servers, like Era, SL, Classic, and UN. Because every server has a different atmosphere, and this would allow nwe players to see the variety in Graal.

Yeah, I like that idea as well.

Also, true that Graal needs $$$, but they're getting about $60 a year per server, as well as the money from Gold and VIP subscribers.

If only just CLassic would be free, a lot of people would come back and new people would join in once again. This way we could have 300 players on Classic again and I bet a lot of people would be curious enough to see the other servers and therefore upgrade.

Idea Updated

Make Trials account details (hearts, kills, deaths, etc) saved on Classic. This will help Classic become more popular and it may provoke or encourage players to upgrade their account to go on other playerworlds.

It may also encourage Oldbies to come back, and if they miss the server they played on they may upgrade so they can go back to their 'home' server (if it's still up)

I could made an obscene comment about you experimenting with your sexuality, but I'm sure I can resist if I wanted to.

However - I bet it's all the globals and/or unixmad and/or Stefan voting for no.

I dunno...sounds like it could be just crazy enough to work.
You make one server free, classic. It burgeons to a 300 person playercount, and of those people I would put money on the number moving to other servers (thus upgrading) would be higher than the percent that upgrade now.

-edit-
And my guess as to the prescence Googi felt was the fact that Kaimetsu voted in the poll. Intriguing indeed.

Hm, I wonder if maybe I should pay more attention.

I really haven't, and I've noticed a few things..

1) Supposedly Googi's gender has been revealed somewhere.
2) Supposedly Googi has some sort of connection with Kaimetsu.
3) Supposedly Kaimetsu was a moderator at one point.

Ah well. I'll just waddle in ignorance.

I don't see why they couldn't make Classic free for trial members (saving stats). They could even bring back ghost mode on Classic in combination with the other suggested ideas. Anyone could log on and save your stats, but you'd have to wait in a queue line if there was 150 players online. If you upgraded your account, you skipped the wait list, that way it'd encourage players to upgrade if they didn't want to wait and/or if they wanted to go back to their old server.
