Few questions i would like to ask regarding this (To rezon/azrael only, no one else):
1. Why do you think this marriage idea will work? Please be descriptive in your words please

2. Will it change the game in any way? How so?

3. This won't affect PK, Tower or Spar fans of Graal Classic. Do you think it will?

4. There has been players that have complains of online dating ever since it affected some parts of Graal Classic. Do you think this will upset players real bad if the update actually happens?

5. There is a new marriage chapel leaked by Azrael early months ago:

Its supposed to be a marriage/divorce center for people who like to get married. Would you accept this in your own opinion? Yes or no and why?

6. May i please ask why should marriage/divorces be charged of gralats?

7. Do you wanna give in any suggestion on what special advantages the marriage idea should have? Should there be any bonus if both are VIP?

1. Yes it will work. Tons of players have been asking for this since the server started up.

2. I really don't think it will change much except people will get all giddy and pretend to live out a Marriage...online...on Graal...enough said...

3. No it won't change anything regarding PK, Sparring, etc. Maybe the married couple will try not to PK each other. I guess that's really the only changed thing. Unless they get into some sort of argument, and the only acceptable solution would be for one to kill the other. Highlander, baby.

4. I don't see how it would affect anyone who doesn't get married. So I don't understand why anyone would be upset.

5. I uploaded that on mistake a while back while editing that level on our Dev server. That's not the chapel we'll be using though. So no, that's not a marriage/divorce center. That's actually an old chapel from Old Classic.

6. Marriages and Divorces will probably have some gralat charge. The player(s) will be renting out a level for a specified amount of time and will receive some neat little things for getting married. You pay for marriage and divorce in real life (4realz), so there's really no difference on Graal. Except you're paying fake money and it won't be anywhere as expensive. Also, you won't have to pay for food to appease all of your attendee's.

7. There are bonuses and whatnot but I won't be going into them at this time.

8. Why would Rezon answer any of these questions, he's not staff. Nor Dev Staff.

I'm guessing a special area for married people, which would encompass exclusive items.
lol the only reason people get married on Maplestory is for the exclusive party quest.

Lol Higbey. What about the "families"? They would probably have a hard time deciding who keeps the babies and which get sent to the adoption center.

Just reminded me of family's on maplestory as well -.-
even though it doesnt work like a traditional family as marriage is in maplestory

PS:Will there be gay marriage?
^I think it'd be easier to just tackle this question early on

Wtf that divorce and marriage building is from pc... Although I hate the outside.. I mean it's tiny and wierd looking. Like a tiny shack.

Also, if the players divorced, would the female player get half the gralats, custody of the turkey, and the male players house? And the male gets one of the females couch furnitures?

I agree with your opinion on the building. Can't it be nicer? And it will probably end up all your stuff is taken from both of you xD

This would be as stupidly popular as the turkeys in the guildhouses. And for the staff, you could make all these services for extremely high prices, and I GUARANTEE that it will be a giant success.

You win the internet.

Few questions i would like to ask regarding this (To rezon/azrael only, no one else):
1. Why do you think this marriage idea will work? Please be descriptive in your words please

Most likely been suggested many times in the past, will enhance the feel of the social mmo, which I believe that they are striving for. (vs iEra)

2. Will it change the game in any way? How so?

Not much compared to heavy tower changes, spar changes or overall look/feel. However, it will still change the game, as it will be something for users to look forward too, add some more gameplay. Of course any change will in turn affect the game.

3. This won't affect PK, Tower or Spar fans of Graal Classic. Do you think it will?
YES. Many PK/Tower/Spar fans are also heavy people in the social aspect of the game. And 50% of all people do it to increase their stats, to impress.

4. There has been players that have complains of online dating ever since it affected some parts of Graal Classic. Do you think this will upset players real bad if the update actually happens?

0 ****s were given tbh, they don't have to do it if they don't want to.

Not enough information for this, sorry.

6. May i please ask why should marriage/divorces be charged of gralats?

Well, everything is. At a staff's POV, they have to make money somewhere, and like I said in the OP, this would sell like the turkeys. Trust me, it will be a 100% guaranteed hit. And what doesn't have a price tag ;)?

7. Do you wanna give in any suggestion on what special advantages the marriage idea should have? Should there be any bonus if both are VIP?

Refer to OP, showed the ring effects that were from maplestory. As well, I think some quests as the new 'couple' would be pretty cool.

Shots fired. Firstly, I sorta suggested it, and I believe I should be able to input my opinion. I wasn't the first to suggest it, but I did shine some major light on it. Secondly, I am of the female gender. ;/

Someone doesn't know how to read.

And I would like to think that the marriages are open to any preferences.

Sorry, I tend to just assume most people on here are male. That's generally how it goes.

You are able to input your opinion, but I don't think you would be able to answer project-specific questions.

E.G. - can you tell me where we're putting the chapel for weddings? Can you tell me approximately how far we are along with the project, or who's working on it? Wasn't shots fired, was mere speculation that you wouldn't be able to answer the questions asked.

np , I would assume so as well.

Well, if questions like that were being asked, I would for sure not be able to answer them, however I did not volunteer myself to answer the required questions, as Maikeru insistedI answer them along side you. I respect your opinion on why I shouldn't be answering them, but why would it hurt :)?

Plan foiled. Still costs money.

people are gonna set their secondary accounts to female/male and marry themself.

nothing shall compare to the wedding of self titled and mentos (I was the best demon). I wish self titled made a account on here, if only graalians on graal could find of about this forum.

VIP still costs money and people still pay for it.

It would hurt because people on this game have a knack for picking out a sentence in a paragraph that can be easily taken out of context, warp it, and then yell to everyone that Logtown/Bushtown/etc. is being created.

In fact, this new building we added on Belle Isle has been rumored to be the "entrance" to "Nimda". It's not, but a lot of people believe it because one dude caps locked it while standing near the building while saying that "staff told me !!11!O1n1oneonee"
