Zach designed some of the guns as well I'm pretty sure.
Zorg did a lot of the scripting, and then Phayze later updated it all.

I don't think you can say that PPA was created by any one person, which is why it always had a council of leaders.

let me re-phrase.

he made the original guns, levels and graphics.

yeah he wasn't big on scripting.

and I don't remember a council of leaders :0


ITS WHATEVZ! honestly i hardly remember.

and to good ol dayz yes there was lots to PPA it was awesome. no disrespect i just saw you claiming it and it feel like GP shoulda gotten credit or some cause he was basically a galactic master pimp baller. ( who created lots of stuff for Era as well as many other servers)

Oh no yeah, I was just kidding. I didn't have anything to do with it being created, I just got in early and stuck around.

GP had created Core Electronics and designed all the levels. Shockedfrog, ghost and I were in Core Electronics one night when Era had first started and were talking about potential businesses and came up with PPA, not sure which one of actually came up with it. The name actually came from JPA (Jinn's Protection Agency). Shockedfrog didn't stick around for very long. But yes we eventually had a group of leaders at "level 5" or something, Snerdly/TheGuy/PegLeg/Zach were all in the group of leaders. We would have council meetings as well as tryouts for players. It wasn't even meant to be an official business but just some roleplaying stuff we would do, like when they had the Police business and office.

I think TheGuy came around when we were on the radio show, I believe you had to run around Era naked with some weird name in order to get into PPA. This was in our original building, I don't remember who did the levels for that. It was very early on when PPA first started.

Era's main appealing points were the radio and the phones. We would take phone calls in the radio station and then have a radio show with two DJs. I don't think we ever actually protected anyone in the beginning. Eventually Zach turned it into a mega evil cooperation with a private island, and I think we even secretly changed the name of PPA to something evil.

But ya, shockedfrog, ghost and I were not too involved with PPA except for in the beginning, I only have like 100 hours on Era. So the true leaders are people like TheGuy/Snerdly who spent a lot more time developing it as an official business. The beginning of Era was one of the most fun times I had on Graal, the community reminded me of the start-up of Graal2001 as there wasn't much stuff to do but what we did have was something we had never seen before. It relied heavily on community.

In my opinion, the community is mostly reliant on management. I think it's pretty obvious that the current management doesn't really care for a server or its players. I don't think Chrisz, Angel, Delph, or anyone would've set their RC name to "Not responding to PMs" (like Kinetaro did/does). I understand you have bigger and better things to do, but when you're only on for 1-2 days out of a 3-4 week period, expect PMs from people.

Just need to lead by example. If he people in charge of the server are inactive and don't seem to care much for the server or its players, the community will decrepit (what it's doing now).

I disagree. From what I know, Kinetaro does it for humor and for satiric purposes. If you PM him, he responds.

I don't think that's necessarily true. The staff team isn't nearly as inactive as you're saying it is. All the staff members whom I have spoken too are very responsive and although I may not agree with some of them, have the end goal for the betterment of Era.

Most of the good developers left Graal because you have to pay to develop a server. There is 0 incentive for developers to shell out cash to make a server.
