You can't use the phrase "times have changed" as a question, because it's already a statement. =P It's like saying "Earth revolves around Sun?".

Of course the times have changed. Nothing stays the same forever. What people found fun back in 1960 isn't exactly fun by today's standards. But it's not Graal that has really changed... it's the people playing it who have changed the most. I'm no longer 16 or 17 anymore. Just like most people aren't 13 or 15 or 15... When as much as 5 years have passed, people change a lot and the stuff that was once fun and exciting is in the past and the excitement is gone.

Though there is still nostalgia to be sought... which keeps stuff in the past alive. But the problem is that Graal has evolved in the wrong direction and there are at least some valid reasons as to why it's not as fun as it was in 2001 or earlier. It's not like Graal doesn't have limitless potential... It's that it's been kind of stagnant as of late.

At one point "hats" and "bomy pets" and stuff were new and exciting. We don't have anything to replace those now... we still have the same old stuff. It's like the creativity died.
