I don't like Graal2001. Out with the old and in with the new, instead of out with the old and in with the new and the new being the exact same thing that got removed from Graal2001 2 years ago.

Mmm, so you're of the "Unqualified statements are the key to true intelligence" camp.

No, just the opinion of a former player.

An unqualified opinion, at best.

Every player has a say, man. It's just an opinion that Graal2001 sucks. Let it be.

One which you refuse to qualify, refuse to accept that you refuse to qualify, and then further state that it doesn't matter that your statement is unqualified.

Logic is pretty cool, when you know how to use it. I'd suggest learning to. Then, perhaps, you wouldn't make such foolish, contradictory statements. ^_^

Darenzo · #51 12-05-2003, 12:03 AM

ok, it's qualified because I've tried the new Graal2001, it's the same Graal2001 I tried out 2 years ago, it still sucks because it's pretty much the same, and the end.

Idea: It's not "The New" Graal2001 yet. ^_^

I am feeling evil, so I will also point out that you did not not draw a correlation between 'the same' and 'sucks'.

Darenzo · #53 12-05-2003, 12:09 AM

Lemme guess...the "new" Graal2001 will be an "uber-1337" copy of every other server there is, thrown into the pot that is Graal2001, just like scrap soup? The same connects to sucks because it sucked 2 years ago, and it sucks today (CS every 5 minutes didn't make a good server, and other than little events, there was no fun at all). There were better servers already out by then.

Graal2001 will not work until a bunch of new players sign up and they are banned to only play Graal2001.

syltburk · #54 12-05-2003, 12:18 AM

I would but i feel totally ignored by someone.

That is by far the most I've laughed this afternoon. Thanks.

Tip: I'm not as stupid as you are. I don't come up with stupid ideas like that.

*shrug* It's a community-driven server.

Darenzo · #56 12-05-2003, 12:26 AM

If it's a community driven server, then it's going to fail again, because nobody plays, and will play. And pulling the whole "you're stupider than me" thing doesn't work any more. The new Graal2001 will be a copy server, and everyone will complain about it. It'll be a copy server because everything that can work has already been done.

The community requires a set of elements to come back. We are working on getting those elements assembled. We'd have done it already, except for our horrendous lack of staff.

That wasn't a point, that was an observation. By supposing that I would even think of such an idea, you're implying a very large level of stupidity. I noted that, while that may apply to you, it most certainly does not apply to me.

The proper combination and emphasis is the key.

So if it's a proper combination and emphasis of copies, then it is a copy server? Whoo

I guess that means he's going to try and use a "proper combination and emphasis" on copies.

Ok, I don't think that's what he meant. I guess we'll just have to wait until he replies again to find out for sure.

Darenzo · #64 12-05-2003, 12:54 AM

I don't know what else it could of meant. It doesn't matter though, they can keep trying and trying, and Graal2001 might get a jump in players for a few days, but it'll just die down again.

Probably, that's the way it is with everything, there's no avoiding it... Unless you have a souped-up DeLorean with a flux capacitor...

They did something right.

Even if all the players are newbies.

I don't think Lance or any of us else who work at G2k1 would want to sink that low just to get a good player count...

But that's just my opinion.

GryffonDurime · #68 12-05-2003, 01:55 AM

Hmm....So basicly, Dorenzo, you're saying that a combination and emphasis of certain elements means copying? It could be a combination and emphasis of new elements never before seen. But of course, since this disproves your little dillusions, you'll deny it to the end of the world.

2k1 has lots of new things coming down the pipes- it's just that fact that the pipe's clogged and we don't have enough plumbers.

I don't know, 2+ years ago Graal2001 was an awesome server. Fun Kingdoms, growing community, and player-driven plots.

It was also unique, there was no other real server like it, at that time. Because of its popularity back then, many of the things that made it unique spread out to all the other servers.

He said the whole combination and emphasis thing under a part of a quote about copies. It is what it is.

Wow..he replied to the fact that you said everything that works had been done. Again, could he refer to needing the emphasize something new with something old? Also, we could be talking about combining and emphasizing old elements of 2k1. You know, the ones 2k1 pretty much invented/innovated.

Wonderful concept, language is. SO many ways to interpret every single phrase!

The staff roster has changed. What makes you think the new members won't do their part in bringing new things to the server?... That seems to be what you're implying.
