Hello there mister Carl. Remember me? ^^

So, Ive seen you rushed to make an update after the fail of new emu... Do you mind to stop posting random fake fixes and instead of that, work over the core and post a list with all those bugs, exploits that have been really fixed?

You -the Staff- have made the 'Official' bug reports thread. Mind making one with all those fixes that you promised? Be brave and count all thos bugs, exploits and other issues that have been fixed. You will be surprised when you will see the result

As I can recall:

Really? Many expectations you got there my friend Carl... Mind spending more $$ on the server?

I see all those exploits, bugs fixed... People still cannot bind on kisks... Quests you posted are still bugged... Boss' drops are bugged... Dredgion is bugged... Mobs deal insane damage... Classes like Gladiators and Assassins are OP as hell...
Oh noes, wait! Those are the fixes you expected to see, right?
You created new bugs, nice fix dude

I really hope you will start to respect all those people who donate to you for this crappy quality server that it has become. Yeh, Ive been here since v1.5, back then it was great server, all people were njoying high quality game on this Pserver but you managed to screw it up with the lack of good Devs.

Have a nice day,
Raik~

 

inb4 the lock :[

 

Dropping more money on the server won't fix anything.

Him getting a competent dev team MIGHT be a good start. But I'm sure you realize it's not a hardware issue at all. All the problems the server faces are software/dev issues. And when you have little to no inhouse development happening and just apply whatever updates are being thrown at the community project you're based on, well, complaints like yours really don't matter.

 

inb4 infract/possible ban

q.q

 

I vouch this for Quote of the Year.

 

Oh Oh can I be part of the drama?

 

haven't seen this face around here for quite a while...

 

Miss me baybeh?
I come back when I smell drama. It lures me like blood does a shark.

 

That's really the only reason. We've got one developer trying to work for a few thousand people, and he barely has enough time as it is. Personally I'd like to see a greatly expanded dev team, but there's hardly anyone (competent) willing to sign up. It's very time-consuming.

 

I see that... you can spot drama amazingly well... don't fuel the fire bub, you know how that ends.

 

why not pay the dev team at least a bit. or maybe give them credits as payment (doesnt really require carl to pay in real $)

 

O'rly? Why dun you go to check the Gamez Recruitment section buddy, huh? You will be surprised how many people's Dev applications have been ignored.

Besides, coz I like to speak with facts: http://forum.gameznetwork.com/showthread.php/72935-Update-4-5-2011

 

I'm insulted that you would think I'd ever do such a thing...

 

im willing to be trained XD. i like handling these things. w/ proper training. everyone can be a dev. if carl would only have an application form to be filled. i would really want to join & help. coz im here at the house and doing nothing. XD

 

Agree with this...If you are willing to pay a dev with real $ im sure soemone competent enough will sign up.

 

Well honestly, evilset looked by far the best trained out of everyone and see how much stuff is bugged. :x

I have looked, actually. ;

Easelm - promising.
zanakinz - looks too inexperienced.
Griffeh - left within days of posting app.
Fervid - No clue why he wasn't hired. He left, anyhow, no matter how much I tried convincing him to stay.
Chiggers - ...not really.
LordPain - same as above.
Pitcher - ancient, doesn't look much like a dev app anyway.

 

Erm, 95% of people here will have to disagree with you on that.

You < Carl.

Carl decides everything, no? There we go.

 

Either you don't understand or you're willfully ignorant of the situation.

It doesn't matter how many clients he's "developing for" as you say since it's one project. Not only that, it's one project which is feeding off an open source community. So it makes progress whether he does anything or not. His primary goal at gamez should be critical bug fixes.

How long has this server suffered from over a dozen types of gamebreaking exploits that were never resolved? Those should've been priority #1 from the moment he joined the team. For example, why was it so hard for him to fix the issue of characters in hide being able to attack and remain hidden? It's not that hard of an issue to fix. It could've only been a handful of possibilities, the most likely one (since it didn't affect all players) was that the server didn't realize the player was still in hide after the initial attack so it stopped sending the request to unhide the player. And a number of possible solutions are available for that situation. Why were none explored and implemented?

And like I said, the hide issue is one among many that were never fixed (I don't consider switching to a new emulator a fix either, since he did nothing a dev would do to resolve the issue). I do look forward to the new exploits that a new emulator brings though. While some old ones may be gone, I'm sure new ones are waiting to be found. And I have no doubts that they'll be just as gamebreaking.
