Irisu Posted June 14, 2010 Report Posted June 14, 2010 Two people giving suggestions wouldn't lead to anywhere much, though. Very true. Attempts to help this server's economy has been done thoroughly and has not exactly been giving the desired results. If it was that easy, then we wouldn't have had to open up this thread, which in turn wouldn't change much too. More players? Price floor , ceilings? Demand, supply? Perhaps even Economics wouldn't make things better.
bankai` Posted June 15, 2010 Report Posted June 15, 2010 Hell no lol and why you wanna work so hard for your items? Go play low rate if that's the case.
Sieghart Posted June 15, 2010 Report Posted June 15, 2010 Well, the main problem is excess supply. The only ways to combat this is to either decrease the supply or increase demand (ie. more players).
Irisu Posted June 15, 2010 Report Posted June 15, 2010 Well, the main problem is excess supply. The only ways to combat this is to either decrease the supply or increase demand (ie. more players). When there's surplus, people complain that prices are going down. When there's a shortage, they complain that things are so expensive and prices gets hiked up, or more so, OPed. It's really hard to strike a balance, I reckon. Perhaps things are better left as it is.
Sieghart Posted June 15, 2010 Report Posted June 15, 2010 Since players are both consumers and producers, it's quite hard to please both of them. So yeah I agree with Iris, things are better left the way it is.
Rayray Posted June 15, 2010 Report Posted June 15, 2010 yeah... and if you think that is low priced, it is actually normal rate. We had TG sold at 100m at one point and Thana sold at 500 dq. :))
supream Posted June 15, 2010 Report Posted June 15, 2010 rolf wipe the server. if u do that ull wipe the amount of people playing to. what cirrus said that suggestion was accepted as a backup case of something like this happened. well its happening maybe it should be implemented now. geni said low prices was a good thing. i didnt think he was thinking this low. f dag is 50 incan 15. before they were more. the only thing that went up is thanatos.
Elimination Posted June 15, 2010 Author Report Posted June 15, 2010 Card prices seem pretty stable though :P
Barbie Posted June 16, 2010 Report Posted June 16, 2010 I think someone already said what will help the most: new players. If you guys want to improve the economy and many other aspects of game play, why not try to help promote the server and be welcoming of new players? Most of the reviews for the server were deleted off of ratemyserver, and the only people who have been reviewing are bashing it. Also, voting. We're ranked low currently ( 48th ). If more people promoted the server and encouraged new players, everyone would be the better for it. :)
supream Posted June 16, 2010 Report Posted June 16, 2010 can u honestly say what they are saying on the review isnt true? some of the stuff they say in those reviews are fare fetched, but it has been a month since i reported a scam and nothings happened. the pros do kill the new people all the time.
Barbie Posted June 16, 2010 Report Posted June 16, 2010 (edited) can u honestly say what they are saying on the review isnt true? some of the stuff they say in those reviews are fare fetched, but it has been a month since i reported a scam and nothings happened. the pros do kill the new people all the time. A lot of it isn't true. The server is stable, and the staff here is helpful. On a lot of servers, the administration doesn't even deal with hack/scam cases - "if you lose your items, too bad." People should be thankful that the staff here offers support ( or even tries to ). In some cases, your items can't be retrieved. No matter how you look at it, they are your items and your responsibility. It's not the administration's fault that you were scammed. I'm sorry if your ticket hasn't been addressed, but that doesn't make the server not worth playing. I do agree that the "pros" are unfriendly and kill newbies. That's why I said "and be welcoming of new players" in my first post. Some people here do need to learn how to play nicely with others, but there are quite a few nice people who play the server, too. It's like that on every Ragnarok server though, or every online game for that matter. Regardless, this wasn't meant to stir an argument about the reviews. I'm just saying that the best way to get new players to come here is to let others know about us, whether it's by voting or reviewing. Having new players join the server will not only help the economy but it will also make PVP and WOE more competitive. Not to mention, it'll make things more interesting in general.

Rayray Posted June 16, 2010 Report Posted June 16, 2010 @barbie yeah the ratemyserver reviews are kinda far fetched. you can tell that those who wrote bad about it are just the ones who FAILED to read the description "PK Server". @supream Scams are more of the player's error, not the server's. The admins have to review it first, and please understand that the admins GOT A LIFE(college, etc), not all of their time is dedicated for this, but they do give an ample amount of time for this server. Not all Pros kill newbies. I for one kill only those who are annoying and kept saying "give me itemz" or those who spam storm gust when everyone is sitting in for_fild01, or those new champions who just asuras anyone they see. Some newbies die because of what they do, we do not kill them for mere fun. The thing I hate about newbies is that they come in here from another server thinking "hey i can get strong here in 5 hours just like the last one I've been playing on". Others who are experienced enough get all the items they need in less than 6 months if they are dedicated enough. If you don't believe me, ask the ones I helped in my old guild(TearsOfBlood).
