Offense is taken. I was not accusing Chris of being a PKer to those with opposing opinions (though I would not frown upon him for doing so in this case, but rather turn my head as the people who oppose the opinion Chris and I take are simply turning their head from this matter themselves.); besides, my "beef" with Chris PKing has been discussed with him in the past and we came to an unstated agreement: agree to disagree on the matter. My comment was simply to show how people who want a reset have the most powerfull characters in the game. Also, you're getting off topic by talking about RPing. We're really discussing bringing back or taking alchemy items, especially by means of reset.

If the only, or even main problem with GK were that a few people are bored, then I wouldn't even bother to discuss this matter. Them resetting themselves is pointless. The challenge of starting independently is interesting and fun, but the truth is that it's near impossible to get alchemy items without having friends as all of those people do (then again, it brings up a question...if all the top players reset, does that mean no friends will be able to help eachother,as all the friends are likely the ones who reset? There's probably friends outside of that group of the highest-ranking players though. K, 'NUFF RAMBLIN').

I would agree were it some other type of game. Take a role-playing game as an example. Let's say you spend countless hours going through a game which takes at least 200 hours to complete. This means you'll spend about 400 hours to thoroughly play the game, gaining items, leveling up, getting special attacks. I know it would be horrible if you complete 90% of the game when your save game file is ruined.
Take a second example: There's RTS game you play online against a friend. You spend 3 hours building up your army and resources. Both of you then launch a massive attack against the other. Right when both frontlines are about to meet, something happens such as: your internet connection drops, you have a power outage, your computer crashes, etc.
Do you see the difference? These game's have ENDINGS that you missed. Still, it's not work, but you can feel sympathy for these people. Like let's say you need to clear your memory card which they are using to save their game, you can WAIT untill they're done with the game to do so. In Graal, there's no ending to wait for people to get to. People want to just NEVER have a reset. That will NOT work. And the more this is waited for, the worse it will be.

Our votes do NOT all have the same weight. This is not the United States of America, sir. This is Graal Online. I know if I were in charge of things, I would definitly take more consideration into the vote from someone such as DragonX before even bothering to read the opinion of people with names like SSJ4081Gohan, SSJ94812Gojeta, i0wnj00nubz, El33tPK0r, etc. This would be because they would all have similar characteristics; share Graal accounts, harass new players for no reason what-so-ever, flame Stefan (but usually not directly) and other Graal developers, say "graal sux", involved themselves in anti-Graal activities, show this hate for Graal simply because they
can't/refuse to support Graal by paying this price of which is only about 1/3 or less of the price of other MMORPG's, are only about 10 years old, act like they're only 10 years old, think it's cool to refer to players who care about the problems of this game "nerds", think it's cool to replace full words with single letters,
leave the game all the time and flame it, have someone else pay for their account by paying them with in-game money, etc.

Random Alchemy and More
That's just IMHO.
im gonna try and find it and see if stef likes it...
But besides, I don't think Stefan would make such a decision. It's a product he sells, and you can't do that by saying "you look sane, I will do what you say" or "you're a *****, bugger of." Certainly is DragonX likely to behave more civilised than L33TB0|\|g, but that does not make his vote worth more in economic terms. It just makes it more likely that what he says can be done, and what the other says can't. Still Stefan listens to everyone, which is probably why he is so busy, and I think it is good that he does, just in case I have a problem to report sometimes - I wouldn't want to hear that he didn't think me sane enough to care, even though he doesn't know me well enough to judge.
