Yeah. The old admins seemed to knew what they were doing and didn't overreact, but still had room to have fun and be a little immature.
New ones? Really serious, and don't want to joke around much. They don't understand when you're joking, kind of the reason I think they're younger. Taking their job too seriously makes us suffer, it's so much better to have fun admins.

True, most of being a gp is checking uploads. But they don't even know how to do that?
I know now to upload when good admins are online, because if you do it when they aren't they'll get rejected.
Ever got your bandanna head rejected? Probably by a younger admin taking their job too seriously.
I got banned from uploads for uploading a head based off an anime, again an admin taking their job too seriously. There are so many things based off copyright material in graal eg coco and dusty's Halloween costumes but at the end of the day, that's not breaking any rules. It's just inspiration.

I doubt those two would of been able to get those costumes if they were uploading when one of the super serious younger admins were online.

At the end of the day, no not all admins who are young suck - but most of them do.

Doing your job (serious) = immaturity
Messing around (not serious) = maturity
Makes sense

People would probably care more about doing their jobs and less about fooling around with staff tools if there was actual rule enforcement.

Definitely agreed sire Pharaoh!

The fact that UN allows admins to roam freely and admins of Graal Classic have to "stay in admin island" is BS.

You think so now, but in about a week the GST Prediction Thread will come about and then you'll change your mind.

I fully respect the content the staff team on Classic has created, don't misunderstand.

Graal Classic already existed; it hasn't changed much, contrary to what people think. In fact it keeps recycling a lot of the same content, scripts & graphics (although there's a lot of neat new ones), and concepts without breeching the surface. The server is beginning to look a lot like corporate Disney Land because the developers have skills, but not inspiration.
-----------
The game could really use some writers.
----------
There's a lot of potential; all the energy that was put into the Halloween decorations could be put into beautifying & enchanting all of the levels permanently. You know? I don't mean to say they don't have inspiration, but yes consistent minor tweaks or "gamechangers" would be lovely without losing the basic concept or being weird.

He's got a point. It's really a shame because Classic and Zone (haven't played Ol' West or Era) have so much potential it's crazy but nothing is done (as far as I know). The teams are amazing, however nothing is done.

>says fully respects content
>complains about content

Classic has multiple quests to complete, does a stellar job of getting things released on time and keeping things consistent, creates entertaining tasks for holidays as well as plenty of hats, furniture, mounts, and so on, and also manages to push out occasional updates for pre-existing content (shops, tile improvements).

CMIIW, but this is more than can be said for the other iPhone servers.

That said, the server could have even more content to please its always-salty-rarely-sweet playerbase, but Graal is not a big-name game. It's essentially a visual chatroom with customizable avatars and some minigames to keep players busy. The development team is composed of teenagers and young adults who don't prioritize Graal over everything else in their lives, so expecting pages upon pages of lore and hours of content is a bit much, imo.

I personally like most of the current admins on classic, it seems like they're handling stuff pretty well as of now

Admins really lack in communication with thier players, I applied because I hoped to change that, but the Admins always say they arent interested. They either 1. Want all the power to themselves so they can corrupt the game, or 2. They really have no idea what they are doing and dont interact with players for this reason

The way you talk about them could be a solid reason for not hiring you

I think he's legitimately frustrated; it is the latter result, not the reason
