Say what, Lance?
 
Hmm... Don't flame me, I simply don't understand what Lance meant.
He said in his THREAD that he needs helping hands in some areas, that I should send the content to [email protected]. But, the announcement said that it should be forum PM. It's either I don't know how to attach the content to a PM, or I send the message and content splitways. What should I do?

Googi 08-19-2005 09:25 PM

Since you can't send files via forum PM, it's pretty safe to say that the announcement has a mistake.

Lance 08-19-2005 09:27 PM

In the Graal2001 announcement thread (and on the website too) it very clearly says:

Quote:

If you are interested in applying to become Graal2001 staff or are simply interested in some volunteer contributions, this thread is the place to be! However, one small adjustment: I am having some trouble with my email, so I ask that you Forum PM your application to me instead. Good luck to you all, and I'll be seeing your applications in my Forum PM inbox!
However, my email is working now so either way is okay.

Lag-inducing items? Why do they induce lag?

Also, I'll believe "Prime" is really going to be released when it is actually released.

Hahaha, are you serious? I'm not even going to bother with this one.

Curt1zzle 08-20-2005 09:11 AM

My prediction: 2k1 is gone for life.

CURSED, I SAY!

For the safety of my own mind, I will imagine he is just doing some youth-inspired skinny dipping and not attempting to fornicate with the sign instead.

If you're talking about the corner piece on the building roof with the green part, that isn't a tile error, there has never been a tile to fit there. That doesn't mean I won't make one. ;)

I don't know why he doesn't. I was on and I saw that there actually was progress, but Lance still doesn't post screenshots and he even made me promise not to leak any screenshots.

Both of which may or may not improve the server. I don't think you can assume my server is not going to be as good because of those two things.

It's safe to assume, however, that my server is more than just "pretty GFX". If your only real arguement is that my server has better graphics... then I think you just made a claim that my server is better, since pretty gfx are better than old ugly ones.

calani 08-25-2005 08:48 AM

No playable bomies?
blah @ that.

Maybe Koni will reconsider playable bomies and NPC Kings at a later date. Servers don't have to stay the same.

xAndrewx 08-25-2005 09:38 PM

NPC Kings, lets have an NPC community!!

zim5354 08-26-2005 01:48 AM

npc kings have there uses...say king "x" invites one of his friends to the kingdom and gives him a really high ranking position becuse they hang out on another server even though he can not rp then billy bob has been in the kingdom longer and has better rping skills then the kings friend with npc kings it would stay fair and non currupt from a cirten view point.

::edit:: with my one post a day i hope someone will tell lance my reply is on this page...

Ok for king X i will use bela ophi or whatever it is as a example I dont play graal kingdoms and I can already tell thats improper rping from my time on val..How come its still there when its incorrect and should have been removed by the kingdoms manager things need to be done but they always arnt sure king X should be removed but he hasnt just like bela whatever

King X is a bad king and should've been removed by the Kingdoms Admin or Manager. Why was King X not removed?

With people like you in the community, I'm beginning to think it wouldn't be a bad idea.

Because in a realistic situation, it would be difficult and/or time consuming to watch and judge both players and test their roleplaying abilities. Something the manager would not have time to do. Something the Kingdoms Admin would not rank as a major priority.

If the Kingdom Admin or Manager is removing kings because someone claims the king is showing favoritism, you're going to run out of kings pretty fast.

Trust me - proving if a person can roleplay properly or not takes about three seconds.

Why are there so many bad roleplayers in GK? There are human kings there, and it's absolutely atrocious. Having human kings doesn't seem to influence roleplaying suckiness.

No Kingdoms Admin - which 2k1 has a very good one at that.

How is a Kingdoms Admin going to know every little problem that goes on? I don't see how a Kingdoms Admin is going to fix bad roleplaying when the majority of the players don't roleplay well, or don't care to.

The majority of players on 2k1 have always roleplayed...

And it's not like it would be a single person going "OH WELL LETS SEE WHAT'S GOING ON TODAY"...

Gryffon will be accepting complaints and whatnot if something happens or if something is going wrong... stuff like that. In which he invesitages.

Going by your logic free thought should be illigal because the police cant monitor a person's actions every day. And if they have Free Thought then they can break the laws.

Nightmareangel 08-26-2005 04:23 AM

I have a question. Which server will have the best economy? Which has the most collectable stuff planned (ie. hats/dolls/bomies/etc.)? Granted I didn't play the original 2k1 for that long (around half a year back in 2002) but I do remember loving the economy. I never really got into the roleplaying aspect of the server (was a no name guy in Zormite for a little while). The economy is what always had me hooked...well that and Counterstrike har har. Whichever one has the best economy is most likely the one I'd like to play the most (or whichever one I can get my Gray Krakken bomy back on anyway...har).

Well, judging by the fact that all the clothing and accessories the player wears on my server are going to be items... I'd have to say my server would have more stuff to collect. Unless Lance has a custom clothing system planned. More stuff to collect doesn't mean a better economy though... However, the economy and roleplaying are my biggest priorities.

This does not assure us that the majority of players on the revisions will roleplay. I mean, a lot of them are on GK and not roleplaying.

Instead of knocking NPC Kings, how about you tell us why player kings are better? If the Kingdoms Admin is handling disputes and bad roleplayers and whatnot, what use is the player king?
