I already explained that the burden of proof is on you. You've already displayed a fair amount of ignorance here, and there's no reason to believe that you would have the knowledge you claim. Most people don't.

I'm glad you asked. Showtext versus showimg, for example
You think it took a lot of effort to make such a tiny semantic modification? You just keep on proving how little you know.

It would help. Aesthetics are important to people
Sure, but there's a limit to how much you can change the tileset without completely altering Graal's style. Besides:
1) Zone and GK are currently Graal's flagships, and they don't even use a classic tileset.
2) Stefan doesn't make tilesets. He has some graphical ability, but he's primarily a coder. What do you expect him to do?

False analogy. Right now, there is enough of a scripting language on Graal to work
You're changing the subject. Your question was this: "what's the point of adding a ton of features in GS2 if less than half of the developing community know how to use it yet?"

The basis of your point was that few people know how to use GS2. Now you're running back - as you always do - to another issue entirely. Can't you ever admit that you were wrong?

You asked me what the point was. Rather than giving an answer, you try to shift the answering on to me
You accused me of doing something. I explained that you were deeply confused, asking why I would even want to do that thing. At what point did I break an unwritten rule? You haven't given any evidence to support your accusation, so what am I supposed to be refuting? By questioning you, I demonstrate that your claims are unfounded.

You're defending yourself with a question. Rather than answering a question, you try to shift the answering to your opponent
What question didn't I answer?

Quote:
I'm telling you that I'm knocking down the things you are saying
Yes. Directly after calling me arrogant, you go ahead and prove that you are a conceited, hypocritical idiot.

Quote:
Updates are updates, man. An update to a system is an update to a system
An astonishing feat of logic. Perhaps you could go on to show that an improvement to a client is not actually an update?

Quote:
Rumors. Until I actually see proof
Haha, only you would try to use your own ignorance as an point in debate.

Quote:
The overall damage can be more significant
That doesn't answer my question. Again: Is it worth sacrificing gameplay just so that the server is slightly more playable in those rare times when the entire server has been deleted?

Quote:
I'm sure an exploit is possible
Ah, well, that changes everything! After all, who needs reasoning and evidence when you have blind faith?

Quote:
That's correct. It doesn't have real features until the public can actually observe them
So things are only real when they've been observed by a majority of people? I wonder what your imaginary friend would say to that.
