1. We don't have good first impressions of you because of this post.
2. Learn to type in english. I suggest going to www.hinorei.com/spelling.html and www.rottencat.com/grammar/. You'll find both of the sites very useful.
3. Slang is very stupid. "Getta decent computer, it ain't hard to git! Mah friend had a 400 mhz comp. and he don't lag at all!" Don't be a hick. Just... don't.
4. If you want to complain about us, you're doing more complaining than we ever did.
5. If you don't like this board, don't post here. It's as simple as that.

Marle can you please drop the damn rottencat.com grammer thingy, im not trying to make fun of you or anything but it is just mainly starting a argument.

nope, sorry.

[Munkey]

i say uphill except for the vulgar bomys and ET still not doing a good job.

Marle,
People on the internet don't worry about impressing people with perfect grammar skills. It's the internet.
Many players want to type faster in games so they dont lose or so they can get along doing whatever they are doing. There is nothing wrong with it. They know how to write in English, they know how to have perfect grammar, but they choose not to because as long as their point gets across they don't care.
It doesn't make them stupid, it doesn't make them hicks, it only makes you look very immature when you tell them to "learn english" and the whole bit.

Wow, I didn't know the forums were so fast paced! I had to say that

[Birdbird_0]

BAh, Immature admins, undeveloped minds, undeveloped game play, thats all I need to say, and oh yha , The staff should be hired after a viguerious testing period, not just though I WANT IN LET ME IN or SPONSER ME CUSE I SAID SO! I have always said that positions on graal2001 server are not flashey tags with special privliges, they are a tag that says you work for graal, you help make graal graal, and if that can not be fufilled, than that person should be fired. ET is good, but not alot of the people in it, there should be a series of tryouts only by recomendation, and as for police, Mafukie knows how to judge people and their charicters, FAQ is here for a reson, to answere n00b questions, 1 FAQ or 2 on at a time is enough, but only the elite should be hired, and out of all these positions, they should be on at least 15 hours a week.

omg, Im talking logical again ARG MAFUKIE!!!

Maybe not to you, but when I see someone say something like, "thx yo i tink u shuld b 1 2 bc u r gud 4 da job" it lowers my opinion of them. I don't want to strain my eyes and take 5 min. just to figure out how many vowels a person took out just so I can understand what word he is trying to say.

[Birdbird_0]

ph33r3 my /\/\ad spelling skillz!

[BruceLee2000]

I have to agree with infamous...i don't mind a few little stuff but it does make me think less of a person who "tps lik tis for u 2 undrstnd". Of course i do not go around making guides to proper grammar as though I am the grammar god.

[Fai]

I wasn't talking about the quality of the game. The quality of the game keeps going up. It's just the things like ETs massing garbage, no more events, the economy being ruined. Things like that.

Oh, it's not that I lag noticably on my side.....I can move around just fine, despite jumpy people. The real problem is me lagging. Ask anyone who's sparred me, like Soul Blade, I lag like heck.

Just wanted to point that lag isn't really all caused by your computer. You may not notice lag, but other players definitely can.

[Admins]

You don't really need a connection with
high bandwidth. You need a fast ISP and UDP

[Fai]

UDP?

Update Packages. I think it was that Graal sends many small Update Packages a second, and something such as Cable sends large Update Packages less in a second, which makes it seem laggy and slow.

I agre completely with what has been said about staff. In my opinion, we don't need all these silly positions like Bomy admin and Hat admin and Custard admin. People make bomies and hats and custard so that they can show off their creations, not because they have a title that says they do it. Fine to give somebody an official recognition, but we really don't want to give them power. Lets face it, most of them are kids. Some are mature kids, but most are not. So why not just ditch them?

FAQ is stupid - the point of Graal is teamwork and learning from other people. And ET insults the players' ability to make events on their own. Auctions are nice, but they don't need to be so regular. One auctioneer could keep the server happy all on his/her own. The Graal world should be just that - a world. Intervention from non-world forces like Staff members should be kept to a minimum, and it should alwas be roleplayed. "FAQ"? If anything, it should be something like "Sages" or "Advisors". Just anything so that we can separate the nitty gritty running of the server from the world that the players enjoy.

SO TRUE

It was more fun when we created the fun ourselves. And figured out things ourselves. Now we have ETs trying to make us have fun (yeah right), and FAQs who know nothing massing about bomies. Even when Graal2001 was a huge world with nothign in it but great levels and CS, it was fun, because we had fun making our own fun.

[NightLord]

I voted uphill, even though I don't like a lot of things. 1) staff has become a major problem since I got back, I'm trying to help but it's not easy. 2) Stefan very even gives me the time of day, four months ago he'd talk to me for hours no matter how busy he was. 3) I forget my other complaint.

[TCNDAN]

NightLord

you forgot one
ill do it for oyu

4) Jinn isnt the dictator of Graal

Haha, no, but you can wish though. ;)

[TCNDAN]

shut up and let the Jinnite spirit inside you come out!

[habek]

Earlier i mentioned that railroad sucks, well, it's not =P
IT ROCKS!

[Brandon_Bravo]

You DARE to say that Graal2001 is going downhill even though Stefan works very hard on it? SHAME ON YOU!! Stefan: Graal 2001 is great. :-) AND YES, PEOPLE, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, VOTE 'UPHILL'.

Stefan: Talk to people more often.

[G_yoshi]

i voted uphill....because I think certain things for the most part are doing much better than when graal2001 server had just started.....

[Bane2000]

i have to agree with Fai on this one, ever since people couldn't host their own Playerworlds qualitie has really gone down hill and p2p has ruined playerworlds compleatley.
