Graalians - why so serverist?

Well in my experience, the staff seem to get along fine; irregardless of server. We have several guests on Era who are staff on other servers and many of our staff help cross-functionally on other servers as well. When new staff join from playing or working predominately on other Graal servers they are welcomed with open arms. It is normal for us all to hold some sense of personal pride for the server we work on but I think the staff are generally accepting of each other, the players, not so much. It's all rather interesting because in the end, there is no "competition" to warrant all of the hatred and putting down of other servers in the Graal family.

I have the same experience. To be honest which if you guys don't know, I was approved access to Era iPhone as a "guest RC". (If you ask, most likely the normal player will not qualify to be a Guest RC, sorry. I know someone is going to ask.) When I first logged into RC, I was greeted and welcomed with welcome arms, same goes with Delteria. (A long while ago) (We also welcome staff to our RC with open arms but the only experience I had with that was when I was hired in January which doesn't really fit here.) The staff are kind toward each over and we definitely do not slam each over's servers. My question is why can't players show the same type of behavior? (Especially the ones who want to become future staff members)

Zone and Era have always been sh*t. Don't deny it.

I find it ironic. This thread was made to encourage players to be more respectful to others, and now it's a flame contest.
You guys need to realize most those problems are nothing but stereotypes, perpetuated by a small amount of idiots setting a bad reputation for everyone else.
Era isn't all jerks
There are people in classic that aren't pedophilic creeps hunting for little girls
Izone has some kind honest people who don't abuse glitches.

Sadly what this thread was intended to do didn't work out in the end. I am not the type of guy to feed the fire, but I do have to say that the people who mostly posted flame, are not mature enough to see the actual message of the thread and contribute positively.

I am perfectly well aware that this post is going to get flamed and to be honest, I really do not care. I also do not care if players compare Zone to Era in terms of player count, it is like comparing apples to oranges. Zone will grow over time.
