plz dont pwn me, i was expressing my feelings, ok? and i have a right to do that, but many old delterian's do not like the way del is going, and many wud love to play old del, so dont yell at me for having an opinion, especially after i supported yours, k?

Um, I'd already been busy quoting and replying to your previous thread before I saw your comment. As for have the right to express yourself...last I knew, France does not have such a law...I could be wrong, though.

We as humans will always disagree with each others opinions. Its just how we are :p No rules sounds nice but its not necessarily a good thing. You must have structure if you're going to build anything.

yes, i guess i agree, and i think you are doing a fantastic job with your server, it, in my opinion is the best looking server out there, and obviously the most underrated. You, in my point of view are close, if not the best developer i have ever seen, keep up tha good work...

erm
 

Inactive servers should be gone...DK seems very good though and it actually has potential.All those other servers with 5 players on at max a days hould be gone and make room for better servers

Yes, there are some playerworlds that need to be taken down. I remember old delteria. That place was cool but filled with so much crap it wasn't funny. The "hooters" place was a nice touch but its also copyrighted. I really like how Delteria is now. The levels are cool. The whole "apartment" style look is great. That Galabia (sp?) is just messed up. It was released then went private. wtf? Thats not fair. There might be a few other servers like that but they get to stay up when another new server could take its place and get more players. I think there are too many servers online to start with. The players are all spread out. Less servers mean more people on the others.

UN lags more for me. That whole pointless rain things causes Graal to screw up for me.

UN is great for sparring! During spar events, hearts are not even evened out like Classic spar events. Classic has many different PKing areas and make it perfect.

I don't really like UN, and that's because most of the staff are really immature. Too immature to even allow me to come on RC once in a while to help a few people.

?
Galbadia was already private, it was released, it was laggy, then it went back to private.

Stefan said he is going to do something about galbaldia. It's rediculous how it gets online then goes private.

By the time they do the overworld again, the standards will rise and galbaldia's overworld will become crap once again.

That's exactly what happened with Gaia. It was admitted in Janurary because it has "good scripts" and now it's released, 9 months later, yeah, so what? The scripts are decent at best.

I know it was private then released then went to private again to be fixed. Then when it came back it was open. Now its just a few levels and only staff can access them. Thats what I meant by "private." It like sends you to another playerworld when you log on.

I say just remove all of the playerworlds besides Classic. I bet you are thinking "Now that's a stupid idea, why would you do that?"

Well, basically, because the standards for submitting playerworlds should be MUCH MUCH higher. The ones that are online are a disgrace. I bet someone could create 1-2 levels full of fun things to do and it could be more popular than most of the current servers.

Also you should not be able to remake a current playerworld without it being passed and/or approved by the PW Administration.

If you people just take your time and think of the players we wouldn't have all of these dull and boring playerworlds.

The PWs are playermade Servers. Why do they have to be perfect?

Now that Graal has gone entirely P2P, the standard of quality HAS to be raised. We can't accept crap anymore.

In which 85% ARE crap.

So many people like to bash on UnHoly Nation, when they dont even take the time to look around the server or stay there for a couple days. Now im LAT Admin there, and ill admit the levels are bad, but i have done what i can to change that. I had my lats redo some of the towns, some pathways and even start adding a coast to Un. Now, i plan to redo the levels slowly, why? because strangely enough the players on Un like the levels. Now we do have some nats working on things like new jobs and games(mantas making the games hes the manager for all you people that dont know). I myself have taking interest in how people say Un is all spar and pking, yet there are people there that try to roleplay( scary enough), so ive been busy working with some others on a new project for Un. About staff rudeness, yes many are rude, i keep my lats in line but i cannot say the same for the rest of the staff. I find the Weather system annoying myself, but as for progress Un is progressing, but slowly.

This makes so much sense it's scary!

<3
So true
Have managers of once good servers fix up their servers and get rid of the other never good ones that have had their chance but failed.

Torans, i agree with you all of teh PWS suck in my opinon to, but you can't give UN a 1, seeing there are always around 100 people on it x.x
BTW SHUT DOWN ALL SERVERS AND FORCE PEOPLE TO PLAY 2k1 :D

So you're generally inclined to say good things about it. In truth, the levels suck, the scripts are simplistic, and I was completely and utterly dumbfounded as to how the crap it got up.

Then I remembered Genmo was running the PWA.

It went straight to Stefan.

Really? Could've sworn it went past Genmo's desk. Hm.

As do most playerworlds that are afraid of being rejected for a crappy job. I know I have a lot of work cut out for me, so I don't exactly have a lot of room to speak...but I hope my end results do not turn out like so many other PWs online. The people that created those servers have some very twisted ideas on what is good. Perhaps someone from the PWA that is very skilled in levels or someone else should create an example which everything that is submitted from now on is judged against (levels, scripts, gfx, etc.)? A standard is obviously needed since what one reviewer thinks is good another might not. For NPCs and graphics...I wouldn't be overly critical. There are many good scripters, but not enough, I think, that something real high should be placed as a standard...same thing goes for graphics. At least, it shouldn't be real high for now...slowly increase the standard and I think the overall quality of playerworlds may go up...even if it is only a little its better than no increase.

YES RAISE UP
TAKE DOWN THE CLASSIC SERVERLIST!

ok so graal2230 will never come online. lucky.

i did say the levels where bad, but i also said we are trying to fix it. The levels do look alot better then from what i can remember when the server first came out.

No matter what you have your right to go on that playerworld for any reason with your RC. Generally you have work to do and they cannot kick you off for doing your job. Period. If they give you trouble you should either contact myself, stefan or unixmad about the situation and something will be done about it...

In my opinion only the playerworlds which are being unused or worked on at all should be taken down. I mean why get rid of pws that are being used and people actually do like. Sure getting rid of em will bring more population to the other servers. But, it will cause alot of people to leave as well and will cause the overall graal population to drop. When you have a game like graal isnt the overall idea to have a good ammount of people on the game itself ? So what some servers have lower player numbers than others. It's all about people enjoying themselves. I agree that most of the classic servers aren't very entertaining. Even Delteria has lost its touch. But, if people still like the servers it's not very nice to take those servers away just so the ones you favor will get more traffic.
It's all about pleasing the players that play not certain ones who find one certain server fun. Unholy Nation in my opinion sucks but, alot of people enjoy playing there so it's a pretty good server seeing that they have a good ammount of traffic. Thats all I have to say for now.

Man you suck!! I knew you were a loser, but thats too much.. O_O Loser..

Aftershock speaks the truth. :o

Okay, let's think logically here.

Your playerworld was admitted as private on Janurary, because it had superb scripts. Now, it's October, and what happened to your superb scripts? Well, back in Janurary I would have agreed that this was an impressive server, but it's October. Standards change, you have to move up. Unfortunately your server spent so much time online that your scripts have become average at best, therefore making the server overall average.

If you don't rise to challenge the current standards on Graal, you'll be left behind

posts like this are not necessary. It only makes the manager look bad, which makes his "playerworld" look worse.

That's what I thought the moment I saw his post... I was thinking, "Man... How old is this guy..."

Actually I think I should apologize for that uneccessary post.

You see, it's just really annoying how the PW team does their work, and they try really hard to make Graal better, but then when a server gets failed, they quickly try and find a solution through the back door and avoid the PW team, ultimately getting lower quality servers online. I mean, if one or two servers do it, then eventually all the others will follow suit and you'll get no more reviews from the PWA, and a whole lot more complaints about crappy servers.

But I must say, that I am very dissapointed with Galbaldia, more so than Gaia. Gaia just lacks content, but I think it can be categorized as one of the better half of servers that are out there when it comes to customization, graphics, tilesets, levels etc.

Once again, I apologize. I hope you see where I am coming from. You try and make Graal better, but in the end you just get cheated out of it all. I'm sure other playerworld owners that come through the PW team feel the same way too.

What the hell are you talking about? Are you just trying to start trouble?

I agree, Doomsday may not be up top with some others, but we hold our own, and we have players that like it here a lot.
Im trying hard since i became Manager 4 months ago, then with getting npc server set us back a bit, but i have wonderful faithful staff , and if Doomsday was taken down, quite a few of us would quit Graal altogether.
I dont think the answer is to remove PlayerWorlds just because there are a lot of them.
How about supporting the ones that are here and helping them improve.

I think what the focus should be is making a well developed world and not a bunch of crap that will make your server at the top of the playerlist all the time.

Too often, many people who make PWs are only concerned about getting playercount. Can we at least for once forget about that and work on creating a nicely detailed world with lots of original things to do. As for the context of original, it could be a new spin on how to do something so long as its different and not yet used by another playerworld.

I would have to say that aside from my own playerworld, Koni's PW is one that I'm looking forward to.

Classic scares me, I dont bother trying to get anything there because I feel like too much of a ****... x.X

Back to the ORIGINAL reason this thread was made..

Online PWs I like:
-NPulse (The people there..)
-SL (NEW SL = PWNAGE!!)
-Maloria (Fun fun O.o)
-Doomsday (Fun fun fun O.o)
-G2K1

Online PWs I dislike:
-All PWs besides those 5 above!

Um, Toran made this thread in regards to the low standards and quality that the majority of PWs have. It has nothing to do with what you're personal favorite servers are.

Tyne is Providence's manager.

I think it should be taken down, though. It was majorly ****ed up by Chicken, so we have nothing past that point. It was, at one point, going to be a server with 3D Terrain, but that was scrapped.

Looks like the playerlist has been glued to the same spot on Prov for a week or so.
