Plans for the Future

As I assume reign over these Islands, they are abandoned, left to decay, and barely inhabited. Zormite is not alone, the fall of membership in Graal as a whole, has caused many nations problems in membership.

Bringing Zormite back to a position of activity and prosperity will take more then just making it attractice to players. It would take a team effort of many nations to give back to the community of Graal as a whole to improve it and to draw more players to Kingdoms, and keep them playing.

This is will be a long hard path requiring a fair amount of work from all involved. However given current conditions, things will need to start relatively small.


1. A new system of ranks. The previous ranks indicated a chaotic mess of several previous governments, looked poorly planned out, and did little to let people know where they stood, or what was expected of them. The new ranks that I have put into place all follow a distinctive pattern. They are clear concise, and neatly tucked away into unique ministries. As Zormite gains membership, there will plenty of room for people to filter in and they can clearly see where they stand in the overall picture.

2. Mass removal of suspected inactive members. Cleaning the membership roster will keep the lists looking clean and uncluttered. It will also give people a fair idea of just how many 'useful' people will have. An aggressive culling process will often times result in the accidental removal of people. If you have been accidentaly removed, just talk to someone (just me for right now) and if your claim is true, you'll be put back to your original rank.

3. Cleaning up the island's levels. This is a very large project, but it is the final of the beginning projects I have planned. It involves remapping of the majority of the surface of Zormite. It will make the terrain a lot more realistic, sloping, and less broken up. It will also create new and interesting areas to place your houses and will the lay the groundwork for a zoning system. The zoning system is not going to be an idiotic, brutal method of irritating people and telling them NO to houses, it's just a way of creating special areas designed specifically for houses and stores around major roads and towns. Areas that are specifically flat, with enough room to easily place fences and other similar SMALL fortifactions. It will not only help Zormite develop an RP background, but it will make it easier to navigate and much much easier on the eyes.
