Dev's blog:
I have been on web sites or forums for other games that I have played and some of them have a feature or its own section that's like a developers blog. Where it's basically just a little bit of insight on whats happening what they are working on and where there at on stuff. Imo it would be nice if you had one of those on here. Or at least added a news feed section on here as well.
It wouldn't have to be exact detailed info just relative stuff. For example: We are targeting sometime towards the end of September for the re-launch of the rail road system. That wouldn't be giving an exact time or date just an approximate date. You wouldn't want to ruin the surprise on most things.

I was thinking of doing this already, but I don't know how successful it would be. It may improve the communication between players and the (four) people that do work on the server. It would also allow people to make more informed feedback and suggestions instead of just plucking things out of the air. I'd like it more than posting on Graalians.com and it could be just as pretty! However, it could also just turn into an extended news post, provide false hope with so many projects going on at once, or kill any buzz that an unannounced release could have.
For example, I posted a screenshot of some remade Snow Town features and then took an unplanned break away from the staff. When I got back all I could think of was guild-related content. Now people are constantly crying about assumptions that they themselves have made. In hindsight, posting a screenshot probably didn't help much at all with anything overall. If Classic was a server that was 'in development' and we could hide behind the fact that you're not actively playing it, sure, I can see how previewing can be of benefit. Unfortunately we are not.
