You also were working on a server of a much smaller scale in a time when quality in the game was not at the same level. It's completely different now and you can't compare it, so don't try to.

Dude, first off you have no idea what you are talking about. I was working for both Graal Classic & Graal 2001; I majored in Video Game Design after high school on top of my prior experience throughout high school, then worked independently in high end marketing & internet engineering, software, & game design for the past 10 years. I am professionally a top-level interactive programmer, designer, writer, marketer, prophet, & entrepreneur.

The amount of players on the server is besides the point; everyone likes to flail around here scapegoating, "BUT THERE'S PEOPLE NOW!!!! AND TOOOONS OF HATS!!! NEW CHANGES!!!! AND CHING CHING!!! EVERYTHING'S DIFFERENT!"

I've got news for you, looking at how Graal is now and was then—it reeeeaallly hasn't changed much so quit lying to yourself unless you were there. There were 300 people online at any given time at the time I worked on Graal; there is not much difference from appealing to 300 people & 4,000 contrary to whatever Donald Trump expert thesis you pretend you've written about the topic.

Creativity is about having a soul; it's about passion, inspiration, skills, and yes, marketing. I am not the same 14 year old I was, so this notion that in the past 15 years I've done absolutely nothing with my life just shows how incompetent your discernment is. 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.  

lmfao  

The difference between 300 and 4000 players is huge when it involves giving hormonal teenagers administrative powers. Classic pulls 100k unique players a week. I don't care about what you've done since you were 13 and I don't care who you were at 13. The point is that nearly every 13 year old kid does not have the emotional maturity to handle that kind of power.

Also, sorry I burst your ego, but being a washed up Graal Dev jerking yourself off over what you did 15 years ago isn't all that cute.

Okay I almost respected your opinion until you lowered yourself to vermin. And FYI, I was never paid by Graal you ungrateful fool; therefore, I am not "washed up". Everything I did was to feed the public; this isn't Hollywood, so sorry to bust your bubble, but my accomplishments in life will never, ever be yours—so the next time you wanna jerk off to some jealousy & demean another person's entire existence, maybe you should ask yourself why you pathetically drowning about in a community where you haven't done **** to contribute anything of real value to enhance another's life.

How many people do you really know in your life that are so miserable to think that offering their own insights & inspiration is egotistical? You have no clue what I am doing or why I am saying what I am saying, because you are but a man. The problem with our generations is that many of you, like yourself, have allowed giant capitalistic swine to degenerate the truth into accusations of egocentricity toward anyone who outshines anyone (for worldly reasons); I really feel sorry for you; you must honestly feel heavy, and I am not being sarcastic. I truly hope you find it within yourself to open up to grace.  

am i at least cute vermin, though?  

what in the actual ****

Graal has lived in my heart for 15 years; divine inspiration is always a fine dear wine from the loving Gift of God, my friend—not Miley Cyrus on a hotdog.
