Server lag/delay

[noisestorm]

Well in some aspects she's completely right. We got no transparanecy on whats going on behind, why there are so many un-answered dev applications, missing ingame support (or done by the Devs instead of real GMs like mentioned)..
If i have to be really straight forward here (maybe even offensive -sry for that), i'd say Azarael is atm the only one doing anything viable right now. Theres no progress or information about the current Influence Bugs etc, nothing new about Droprates/Droptables or Lootsystem in general, or nothing new about PQs. Some insight on WHO does WHAT would really be appreciated. As well as infos on how far they are with the stuff they're doing...

Huge ass problems ... lag spikes vary from 2 to 4 minutes... small bugs which could easily get fixed are ignored , etc.
That is so unacceptable. Even more that none of the staff which is able to restart the server isn't around.
You got like what? 12 staff members? Yet none is ever around to keep an eye on the server.
Why aren't there GMs online? You got Devs that are supposed to deal with hackers? Why not have GameMasters? Devs are supposed to be coding/fixing stuff, not banning people and check for hackers...I know you all do this because you want to and you gain nothing from it , but please don't do something just to have it done. Put some heart in it.
I have been trying so hard for the last 4 months to see any kind of Management of the server and staff but i fail to see any...it's pretty much like everybody does what he/she wants. W/o a well set base there cannot be an order in anything.

Wish you would consider the idea that a server is not just about coding and fixing. The community is the very big part of it. And at this point the community of this server is quite annoyed by all this.Your loyal players turned to other games because hell ... WAR ain't the only game out there... it ain't the best one... there are so many new games to attend to. Should take that into consideration.
Server's player numbers dropped from about 130 online daily to what ... 70 - 80? It is sad( in weekends...) People are patient but not for ever. They wanna see improvements, progress, support. In all honesty and you can hate my guts for saying this but none of those were shown lately.

I do respect everyone working on this server, spending their free time so that we can enjoy playing this game, but i see all these colored names in the staff yet i have no idea why, we have so much staff working on this , we don't really see anything going on. (not to mention that about 60% of them aren't even active as i saw for the past 4 months , also would love the idea of getting some feedback from staff on what they working and such - i.e. videos Luth took, awesome)

You got so many applications from people that are willing to help ... you encourage everyone to apply but never pick anyone ... i myself wanted to apply for a GM position as i am online everyday and enjoy helping people (was in server management for more than 3 years, Staff manager , GM , HGM) but when all i see is ignorance ... meh. People offering their time and skills to help and none cares...

Do not get me wrong , as i said, i respect and thank all of you for working on this , for spending your free time on us basically.... but come on, don't make fun of us. We , the players are actually what make the server.

With respect and thank you all for your work, Ley.

P.S. For how much longer you gonna let those abusers play freely? Just a reminder ... they screwed up the game for all of us.

LOL, just LOL

evry day after 18.12.2013 I thank Max and other Devs that I can see tiny gobbos going around, can play with friends and I dont need 100%, dont need GM, HGM, GMO, and WTF all shiny things, just that server, that what I need

I'd quote your post Ley but it's hard on this tiny iphone screen </3. I agree with you 100% though.

Read my post, maybe you understand part of what Ley means.. We are indeed grateful for having this server and being able to play, but some sort of progress in the developement is needed for the servers surviveability. You Do understand that, dont you?

sorry m8, but was you playing old game? was there any GM support, any information? any help? any fixing bugs? only what we had that were more bugs after each new patches.
But ppl were happy they can play theirs best rvr game!
Ppl that wanted more and more, that was angry because there wasn't GM around, that are many bugs didn't fixed, fast left orginal game.
Now many of that ppl returned, after break of some years, and think great WAR is for free I can now play that **** for free, oh wait, that game, server is more shitty that original, so I left, I take my toys and go out.
OK, we have what we have and we all should be happy that we can play WAR again!

I think you're missing the point of the post that Ley made and what Noise said . You're right in the sense that on live there was a lack of attention to the community/bugs/whatever... That's what made a lot of the population leave. The same thing applies here. Yes, everyone is happy that the server is here and exists.
Not what we're talking about.

@Grob
Your point is completely retarded. I played DAoC and some years before even UltimaOnline on freeshards like RoR here. And those were also completele free and self-developed WITH support on many terms from GMs there. Those server had a clear Structure for their Staff Like 1 Boss for Devs and 1 for IG stuff, commuity managers, event GMs, scripters etc beneath those 2 Bosses. There is literally no reason why your argument 'life servers didnt have dis or dat' should find any value here.. srsly. This is RoR and has nothing to do with life but sharing the Platform - so keep your arguments about that.

I want RoR to flourish and be a great game in the future. I am 100% sure that YOU will also not be satisfied if the game keeps stagnating like this, so just spare me your euphoria right now.

[Bozzax]

Exactly what has ROR in common with UO and DAoC?

"This is RoR and has nothing to do with life but sharing the Platform - so keep your arguments about that. "

[noisestorm]

It is about to show that other Selfmade projects also lived for Years and had a working system, which RoR atm seems to lack.

@noisestorm
but my question was, how long you were playing original WAR?
