Then that was after my time.
I can't really argue what other people mean when they say Graal the Adventure. What you're saying makes sense since no one really had to differentiate Graal The Adventure from anything else before then, but regardless that was Graal's name for ages.
How exactly did Karlia work back then? I was too young to know the details probably. I do know that other servers were a part of Graal since well before that, the (limited) g-server was around when I first started playing, and the old clients always let you put in any ip to any server.
I think we're talking about completely different time periods in Graal, when I say early 2000s I mean literally 00-02. Then and before people just refered to the game as a whole as "Graal the Adventure" when giving the full title.
