Not everyone has that kind of time to put into a lower rate server. Rates as they are still took me about 2 weeks to reach my first rebirth.

To be honest if people want a lower rate server others exist (as you pointed out), but many people are also looking for that not-too-easy, but not-too-hard range and DMS fits the bill.

I am sure if the people don't like the other server that much, they wouldn't mind trying one that may seem a little easier to them.

I do still promote offering another world (or two if Deagan wants to try lower out as well) to help bring in more members who may want a little more variation in their choices.

2 weeks is like me playing every day for like 5 minutes. it took only a few hours of free time from homework to get our first rebirth. thats just about 4 hours or random playing and junk. but yeah i like your suggestion. having a second world with lower rates would bring more people in. we'd have a scania and a bera for the lower rate server thing.

Lowering Rates - Page 2 Empty ridiculous

2. if there were different channels for different rates, that would be pretty awesome BUT i dont think the server is ready for that just yet. (not big enough and what not). that would require more GMs AND the fact that some players would want to switch (which there is world switch nx thing but who wants to "buy" that?).
3. the split would separate the community which we are known for.

There is a way to link the worlds together if I'm not mistaken, that way the community will be as one still.
That or we could keep this one world and have people choose their rates at the beginning, give them a choice of low, medium or high rated-ness. And sport rankings for each category.

That's ridiculous if you think about it. If you choose your rates when you make your character and then play in the same world as the higher rate characters there would definitely be a problem. the lower rate players will just end up being called noobs by the higher rate players and they would most likely end up just hating each other and destroying our community.

Just shows how much maturity those "high-rate" players have. You have a reason: "I chose low-rate at the beginning because I actually like a challenge."

And if they don't care, well screw them, let them be immature.
I went onto ur low-rate server yesterday and got fed up at level 42...

5 minutes? Maybe if you have someone leeching you.

I happened to train at skelegons after reaching fourth job and discovering the 1b exp prize from dracoquests. Now if this was 1,000x rates then yeah 5 minutes a night for 2 weeks sounds about right.

I work a minimum of 40 hours a week. So I doubt we play at the same time. =)

To answer that would just lead us way off topic.

And I am busy currently. I have other responsibilities in my life as well. Smile

Doesn't seem that empty to me. You're replying aren't you?

And since these forums aren't the only thing I am dealing with...I am having fun. Doing stuff I need to get taken care of before I jump on a game. o.O

ok uhm you guys will have to take your convo into either the appropriate thread or pm. i had to search for the last place this thread was answered and i shouldnt have to do that. remember, if people cant find the "end" of the thread, chances are they'll neglect it and the thread will die. [and ive see a lot of it lately. ie gm apps.] so please remove your convos so we can see the main point of the thread.

Post by Deagan Fri Mar 19, 2010 4:44 pm

True, therefore, update on things :

- I am going to pay 35$ to host a low-rate server which will need to expand (as in hosting) to hold over 50-75 people per day IF we ever manage to get a big amount of players like that. Hope you guys will help me find donators.
(or possibly steal them from rydahms Rolling Eyes )

- I am 80% sure about that.

- Rates will be 25/25/5 (yes 5 droprate to be able to get weapons which arent in @nana.)

- It will be the same source, maybe some editions to the lowrate, but it will still be custom with the same features as the high-rate server.

- I will indeed look for some new gm's and according to the apps, and my personal experience, i'll be able to find them.
(our current gm's will play both versions)

- To play our low-rate server it just requires a different client as i'm not somehow coding 2 worlds into 1 server, too much of a pressure.
This client MAY be UFJ. (if I release this client for the low-rate server I will also release one for high-rate one.)

- Nina, if you could please have a chat with me today or soon, I would like to ask you to help me with my new site design as you're new into gfx and like doing it very much, and you show that you have potential and are artistic.
That being said, a new site layout will be made for low-rate.

Definately sounds promising, good plans and another server = more things to occupy myself with. Looking forward to the day everything is set into motion! Very Happy

I'd more than likely head to the high rates, since I'm used to high rates (first server was SMS) <--- Btw mods, no need to delete that, the server I'm talking about went down last year.

I guess personally I would choose high rates aswell, but since I can do multi-client I don't have to go through the trouble of picking either one to go on. Very Happy

Well, I have read this 3 pages of text and I'm thinking.

If you have a high rate and low rate server, won't people in DMS feel unfair? For EG, xNahuy got to 200 rebirths on the current rates.

For OTHER low rate players to get to 200 rebirths and get the "Medal" or whatsoever, wouldn't it be much harder?

This would lead to server imbalance and its just.. too frustrating to try and get players to donate more to fund the low rate server.LOOK.When theres a low rate server, the drop rate's probably different for fire ores and all[correct me if i'm wrong], and since the high rates server have higher chances of getting fire ores, theres bound to be quarrels over the drop rates.

Not at all noobean, the players wouldn't even interact with each other to know about the RBs and such.

Two separate worlds. Smile
