If you actually read my previous posts you'll see that I didn't say that iClassic players are jealous that we won; I'm saying you seemed a little jealous because the way you reacted. I didn't bring up the mmo vote to say that iEra was better; I simply just brought it up to show brooze and garretty that iEra had a good community.
Now in regards to the rest of your post, I think the freebies had hardly anything to do with us winning. It's called offering players consistent and quality updates all year rather then just "a new morph has been added to onnet town" or "5 new hats have been added to snowtown". At least iEra players purchase gralat packs to buy things they can actually use like weapons; iClassic players use gralat packs to buy pointless things like morphs. The good thing for us is that we aren't solely dependent on gralat packs thanks to the 10 or so jobs we have to earn gralats; while it's almost impossible to make more then 2k and hour on iClassic thanks to the now ****ty farming system. As for the player count, iEra has 900 players on average compared to iClassics 1200 average. Bravo, 300 extra kid standing outside burger refuge saying "rate my gp" or "looking for Gf". I'm not saying players on iEra don't do that but we have fewer of them.
