I would disagree with this, we've already seen Graal's management are happy enough to let a server on the Gold tab rot indefinitely. Plus who would ultimately be losing out?

There will always be iClassic players willing to "one up" others, and PC Graal doesn't mean much to CJ anymore anyway so...

Im sure if the Developers would go into a "strike" they would feel it badly. But this will never happen I guess

iClassic has zero talent on its staff team. iEra's close behind. Half of the people developing for those servers didn't even know that pixel art, programming existed until they started playing on the iPhone servers. It's basically a huge amount of mediocre developers *****footing their way into more content. The way people "script" on the iPhone is horrible; I've seen it. They just look at tons of other scripts and piece them together in random ways until they get something remotely close to what they want. It's pathetic and horrible.

Sounds like how Graal used to be before all of us turned into giant jerks. I kinda miss it.

scripting for iPhone is incredibly limited unlike pc. You have to use practically no loops or timeouts because of how slow the iDevices are. There are so few things you can do so that explains why most the items are really simple. On pc you can script rather carelessly and stuff will still work smoothly since pcs have generally much faster cpus. On iPhone you have to make a lot of optimizations so you don't lag.

Sorry, but lack of loops/timeouts is not an excuse to not create quality code. Some of the stuff I've seen on iEra is... urgh.

I'm not making a big deal out of it though, because all of us started out with pretty crappy code I'd imagine. I enjoy seeing new players going through the same learning process I did over 10 years ago.

Which scripts? The code in general is well organized, optimized, documented.

You mean how just about all of us were when we were new to Graal?

Because this thread is about The Facebook/Web version of Graal

Also to Dusty's comment about the context of iClassic, I couldn't agree more from a gaming psychology point of view
