I have no ongoing grudge with Chang, nor with Kay. And that would neither affect my criticism, nor change what I saw.

You say you don't think it would appeal to players because it's an RPG server, when very successful RPG style servers such as Maloria and Zodiac stuck around for a pretty long time. Condemning every server which goes for the RPG style instead of classic mechanics I would say is a mistake.
This is not why I do not think it will appeal to players.
Quote:
I have played Zodiac, the fact that both servers are RPG does not make it a Zodiac clone. The comparisons are made on gameplay and ideas. The ghost mode is no longer in use, and there are other modes of transportation now.
The fact that it is an RPG server does not make it a clone. From what I saw and read in your document, the basic gameplay would be the same.

I always appreciate constructive criticism, but it's difficult to do unless you've seen the server lately.
No one has seen the server lately outside of your little ring of staff members I don't know how you expect criticism to be given, besides blanket criticism based on what we may have seen.

You seem to be drawing a lot out of a nothing; I did not intend to criticize what you were doing.

My original post even wishes you luck, and states that I haven't seen it in a while (not as long as January/February, however).
