Which way now?

You were also 7-9 years younger back then, if you still have the same mindframe now as you did then, then you seriously need to grow up and mature some. Don't really know how to say that without sounding insulting, so pardon me for sounding so brash.

I'm failing to see the relevance. Because I also enjoyed Graal much more in 2001, does that automatically mean that my mindset has not changed in the last 8 years?

The obvious answer is no. In 2001, Graal was much more populated and there was tons of new content being created. Neither of which are related to mindset in any way, shape, or form. The current stagnation of Graal has made the game nothing more than a graphical chatroom.

Think we're kind of getting off topic here...

Anyone got more ideas on the future?

What kind of server is Classic?

Graal has always been a chat room with benefits. You get to go kick the crap out of that person that just p***** you off.

Nelm is entirely correct though in pointing out that the population has declined in general so that in itself will start the discontent in general. People have to accept the fact though that the NPC is here to stay, GS2 is here to stay. The simple fact that I have to insist on GS2 conversions is enough to support that regardless of whether I like it better or not.

@Gambet, not everyone that aged has actually matured

Classic will be a questing server. Just as it was meant to be.

Quests and the prizes offered from those quests are on several different servers now. How will the server differentiate its content from its competition?

Fair enough but people still enjoy the same games they played when they were kids regardless of how old they are. For example classics from the SNES are still amongst the top favorites of many gamers who have "grown up".

Way to make yourself sound like a presumptuous ass.

I guess the time to re-surrect classic has come. People have waited way to long for this to happen, and i think people did it on purpose.

[BlackSolider]

During a football game this year, the Philadelphia Eagles benched their starting QB (had been the starter for 9 years or so, taken them to several championship games,) at halftime of a game against the Baltimore Ravens (uber defense). McNabb (the QB) had a horrible game to that point, and the team had been struggling recently during the season. The backup played worse, and the team lost the game.

However, during the week afterwards the coach named McNabb the starter again, saying that sometimes "you have to take a step back to take two steps forward," or something to that effect. The team later went on a late-season run to get into the playoffs and eventually get to the NFC championship game (game before super bowl.)

So what's the point of this football rant? Just like Andy Reed said (eagles coach,) sometimes you have to take a step back to take two steps forward. Break down the server, isolate the best aspects, and build on them.

[Pelikano]

Note: I didn't read the thread and I do not know if it has anything to do with this, but:

Why do you guys think this server will be revived and stuff will be done when it's UC? Stuff wasn't getting done when it was Classic, but you really think the staffs will work?

People will lose motivation, that's all.

Eveyerhting comes down to football rofl.

[BlackSolider]

Indeed it does.

There's a football reference for just about anything.
