That's a given.

apparently it isn't to her

she just did that

either way, every staff member should be required to use (or just look at) the forums

Then why does she continue to constantly make mistakes.

I promise you she won't do it again.

I know. You just said she did.

These forums aren't official. Why should anyone be required to look at it? Majority of the posts here on here are for ****s. There are other ways to contact staff.

She should come on here and clear that up herself instead of getting her friends to do it. She never replies to my PMs, doesn't read the forums and is always getting the "she'll do better next time" treatment.

There's a reason Coco and her graphics are adored throughout Graal and it's because she's in touch with the player base and knows what they like and want. She always starts suggestion threads and welcomes feedback on her ideas.

Staff members should have enough of an interest in the game that they at least browse the biggest and most active Graal forum once a week. That's really not a lot to ask considering she's head of the GFX team and threads like this come up all the time:

All from me just searching the first 2 pages of word "hat", imagine if I did "furniture" or "mounts"..

I think Leah sucks pretty badly as the head of the GFX team but that's entirely based on stuff like this happening, so I don't think it's uncalled for when I state that opinion.

Most aren't very aware of the certain ramifications something seemingly minor can have on a server. Honestly, when thinking of lag one wouldn't normally associate a shovel with causing that much lag. And it shouldn't have--most of it was due to the snowballs being created. There are now precautions in place similar to when the Easter event is occurring to help calm down a lot of the excessive data.

I wouldn't have brought it up if it was the first time she did that

I keep seeing posts about someone stealing the gold gralat from a special baddy being killed, so for their sake make it so the person that gets the kill or does the most damage can only collect the gralat or gets the 100 added to their gralat amount.

(should probably be the person who does the most dmg because people can steal kills to get the gralat(s))

There are efforts going into converting all the baddies to have a similar system to pyrats that awards bounty wins to whoever does the most damage. We can expand that into baddy drops as well. Currently the system is in place for crabs and bats, since those were the last baddies to be rescripted.

I don't ask anyone to write for me on my behalf.

She never replies to my PMs

I get a lot of messages, so I'm not surprised that I skipped yours. If PMs seem important though I normally do reply.

I do read the forums actually. I've been getting a lot of my recent ideas from here and I fully appreciate the thought people put into suggesting them.

Also,

There were around 3500 people online when I hosted treasure hunt. I also specifically made sure to not give any hints to where the chests were located - so players wouldn't be grouped up in a single area. Unfortunately though, I didn't take into account the snowballs. That was my fault, sorry for the trouble it caused you.

wahhhh wahhh an admin didn't reply to my pm

Again, I made a minor suggestion in the minor suggestions thread. I only did it because this isn't the first time it happened with you specifically.

I voiced my displeasure with you as the head of any staff team because Yog prompted it. How am I supposed to know you browse the forums regularly with your 27 posts? I was working under the assumption that your friend was telling the truth. Either way, it looks like Coco is actually doing the bulk of the work that you should be doing when it comes to the forums in general.

Only staff member I know that brags about skipping PMs. Do you want a cookie for that, or something?

Don't host that event with 3.5k+ people on while it snows anymore.
