/signed QFT.

If you havent noticed Crono, which you dont even play GK, but half the players have been playing for 3-7 years and have come back FOR the community. Not the playercount, not the price, not the items. We come back because of the friends we've made and the nostalgia of it, so please take the suggestions elsewhere. This topic has already been addressed and we already said no. And who are you Curt or w/e your name is? I havent even seen you before and i guarantee you know nothing of the situation, so please keep moving along to another server.

A non-gold clone should be released, and then all the people that purchased gold can stay on the gold one if they don't want all the trials. Win.

The only people that would expand access to is people who still have lifetime classic subscriptions. Subscriptions are unified now. You can't buy just a playerworlds subscription anymore. You HAVE to buy access to GK.

Another one of these topics.

Plain and simple IT WILL NEVER BE FREE OR NON GOLD.

If you haven't noticed ITS LISTED AS A GOLD SERVER. There is a reason for this. If you don't have the money to get the gelats to upgrade to get the full benefits then don't bother playing.

@original poster: Have you taken into account the fact that people have school/work to attend and aren't on all that much. I have seen the difference in playercount from the school/college year to summer vacation.

Its just the time of year is all. By summer the playercount will be up again.

Making it non gold is just going to turn it into another zodiac (with a different system in place). If I start playing again and this happens I wouldn't even bother spending the $50 canadian to get the gelats to grab my subscription. I would find it an absolute waste.

Seconded, but I would like to see more faces on GK. It's fun to meet the new people that just recently get started on the server. Just so long as there's not 20~ of them.

If Graal Kingdoms was on the Classic Player list I could see it as the #1 server = D

MiniOne · #22 02-09-2009, 11:14 AM

xD i think I've played GK like two times oO and everytime i was on the playercount was at like 20 which seriously sucked id be wondering around and couldn't find anyone

But what do you think a non - gold server can accomplish, and what about the older players who have paid for it and then POOF it becomes a free server? like i'd be like OMFG why'd i waste my money when its just free now. I agree with whoever said give older players a discount or whoever has paid for p2p a discount each time they resubscribe, and bring back the ability to pay for both classic and gold separately cause alot of players who play classic don't actually pay for the gold servers which gelats are supposedly meant to be used on.

Also making it non-gold would mean you would need to make zone none gold as well

Well Graal Kingdoms and Zone don't deserve to be Gold anyways!

Soo True... xD Zodiac and Era would make better Gold Servers then Zone and Gk are at the moment... maybe they should make Zodiac and Era Gold Servers and Make Zone and GK into Classic till they make these two servers have a higher playercount then 40 at peak...

Anything that is labeled a "Gold Server" and needs to be paid to play on Graal will always have a lower playercount. Most people are smart enough not to pay for garbage.

TSAdmin · #26 02-09-2009, 12:41 PM

Won't happen, I can pretty much garuntee it. Zone and Graal Kingdoms are too unique in standards for Stefan to just let them lose out on money from the people who do pay just for those servers seperately. If the "Classic" style were less popular, I'm sure it also would have been thrown up there a loong time ago, but it set the standard for the "Classic" tab and it's the more used format. I have yet to visit a server in my travels where someone is developing a GK/Zone style server. I think xZirox was the last person I saw working on one.

TheSpude_P2P · #27 02-09-2009, 12:46 PM

Ah, TSAdmin...the best PWA Graal has to offer. FINE! Whatever TSAadmin says I had better listen or he may jump me. I've seen him eyeball me. (Off topic? indeed.)

Zone and Graal Kingdoms are unique in style, but far from unique in standards. People don't pay for the servers separately either, they come in one package now, bundled with access to "Classic" servers too. I think that they should just do away with this "Gold" and "Classic" server business and rename it to "Official" and "Player" worlds.

A clone with ****ty features and gfx, and Bjorn running development.

Can someone explain how making it non-gold will do more harm than good? A "tight-knit" community may be good for somewhere like Classic or N-pulse but I think Kingdoms is a type of server where it needs a lot of players to let people play properly and things like the economy to keep running smoothly.

I think some of you just enjoy the fact that you have a gold account and that makes you feel that extra bit special than those who don't own one, am I right or not?
