    Sorry Nick, honestly. In fact, I am not one to talk. I glitched a bit in my earlier days and am extremely sorry for sounding careless.

    And bomber/Azrael:
    I really want to work for you guys again. Heck, I don't even care if I 'get powers' until a thousand weeks from when I am on staff. I really want to do Graphics, and have had a strong passion for them as well as three years exp.

    I'm going to email classic asking for an application, and I want to let you guys know that I have multiple dumps of Graal Pixel Art, Screens for the AppStore, logos, and everything.
    : )

    A few ideas for the game...

    I would like to provide a few ideas for you bomber.

    The thing that I love about Graal is that there are so many things that can be implemented into it, and the fact that it is not a "turn taking" MMORPG. You guys also focus a lot on socializing. While that is a great thing, it provides minimal re-playability for those who just start playing.

    You have guys have done a great job on the sociable part of the game, and now I think it's time to focus on actual gameplay. I've read a few other forums on different websites and many people have been saying that they have tried Graal, but don't enjoy it because there are not quest and such. Focusing on the social aspect of the game isn't a very smart decision. When I play a video game, I want to focus more on gameplay, and not making virtual friends. I mean, that's what real life is for right ;P ?

    This game is also turning away the "older" playerbase. I am not trying to offend anyone, but I notice the whole socializing on a game is more towards the "tweens". People are downloading the app, go through the tutorial, and not know what to do. Think of it this way, if there was only one person playing graal, what would he/she be able to do? It seems like you cannot play the game unless there are other people.

    I've also noticed you guys have been adding things that don't really contribute to replay value. I'm glad that you got your first quest up, but c'mon that was kind of sad. It took me around 60 seconds to figure out the maze for Onnet Forest without any help. The rat also did virtually nothing.

    I understand that I'm being kind of harsh, but I want this game to succeed, and unless a few of the things I mentioned aren't completed, it most likely wont. Anyways what I'm trying to say is that you should focus more on re-playability and gameplay rather than the social aspect. Thanks for reading and I hope that you can improve Graal even more :)

    Also, you might want to start putting ads in the free version. Nothing that will get in the way of the player, just something that will show up and allow you guys to earn a little more money.

    no just ask for one, you get it and you fill it out and send it back...and unfortanatly i didnt make it...i can recognize it when ppl are trying to let you down softly and thats what i got from azrael although i prolly woulda felt better if the email back said "ur resamay sucked and your never being an admin" because now ppl get false hope. for those who dont know he said "
    as you probably know, we get a lot of applications and yours is on file." or something along those lines but i dont need the false hope...

    they do send an email back...no reasons why not or anything though...

    XD laughed my ass off "can i have one" lol we all have funny noob stories. in fact i know ive told this but it was a while ago, the first time i met darkus i thought he was evil. i walked into a small house that used to be by the arena but isnt anymore, and i saw darkus there, he was sitting there he made flames all over the building, there were three dead bodies on the ground and extra blood was coming out of one, and darkus was sitting there going hehehe so i ran out and i thought he was evil for a while untill someone told me he was an admin.

    i agree with vyse\/\/\/ just add the mmo stuff that ppl want quests, monsters, bosses, moire weapons etc. other than that its all advertising. its also a good idea to put it on sale, oir make some kind of promotion like you did with the tuorial make something in game for people to earn them a like 3000 gralats or something, i think you should make acheivments like 100 kills you get 100 gralats or something. just listen to what people want in the game. other than that its just advertising. get it featured on itunes or something but first make better screenshots. also you guys might not remember but a long time ago you made a contast board on belle isle make a vid contest for ppl to make a vid showing how awsome graal is.

    in closing goodbye my GP dreams...it only gets worse from here...

    honestly i agree its a good way to look at it as if you were the only graal player what would you do. with two monsters and to be honest idk if the forest rlly counted as a quest more than just a puzzle, but if that was a quest make more and make them harder and more fun. ive expressed this idea along with many others...MAKE BOSSES!!! i prolly shoulda discussed this in the last post above, but itd be awsome to be able to fight bosses with your guild and then your guild gets (another long ago idea) guild bucks. to buy more member spaces, a guild meeting area, thats on the map, and much better than the house pack providing more options than that, like gates for your guild only, farm spaces, spar arenas extra space and much much much much more. then you get guild acheivments too. the guild acheivments get you guild bucks. like "beat the godzilla boss, or hold a fort for 5 consecutive hours, or get to the top of the weekly charts, or win 50 guild spars, and such. oh and also this might have to do with imo. they see quests monsters and all the stuff u got too, so theyre prolly gonna go to imo...honestly i played imo for less than an hour and i saw 3 more monsters than u guys have

    oh but no ads that would suck. youve already got some in the news dont mombard the ppl with ads

    Just letting you know wings are no longer accepted. Also uploads will take days because things are so behind. As for feedback, the wings and sword are just edits, not really impressive and everyone makes necklaces.

    Hey Caffeine, I was wondering if you could maybe create a template that shows the borders of where you can make the shield as well as how it will look on the in-game character. That way people don't have to drag a previous shield image and preventing people from just changing colours.

    It might help people create more original shields and keep you from deleting ones that don't turn out properly :p

    i aggree, show where the player would go on the shield, so that if you want to make an original its easy because i think most ppl are just editing shields already made...also are all the new shields stored on the graal attachment or are ppl getting those designs in ifile?
