Yup, game is really going downhill because we didn't listen to all the players and make an underwater-themed Nexus.

If I slip you a $50 can you make a Nemo nexus happen?  

that would be cool also I have a suggestion an under water fort for towering ??? ehh??

LOL no its not because of that XD that just the next theme that I'd like. Im just curious as to why admins haven't been as communicative as ones that I have experienced in the past. Trust me, talk with successful MMOs like RS or WoW they listen to their players and respond. The biggest thing is responding because we feel disconnected from admins when we are ignored.

what?  

The nexus is mainly opened on special occasions to portray holidays and themes wished to celebrate, considering the entire grasp staff are volenteers and do not get paid for the very nice art quality that they just spit out for free for the community you should be greatful it even opens at all...

I mean if you was putting in time for free I don't think you'd be greatful for all the complaints all the time yet these people still work hard to produce decent content.
You can't compare this game to something like Wow as there is an actual dedicated professional team that's gets paid a lot of money for making this content and therefore can dedicate all their time to it

NO NO NO lol I'm not talking about nexus XD I just was saying my theme suggestion thats not the thing I was getting at. My point is, when I began playing I could pm the admins and become friends with them, join their guilds (on admin acc), and talk to them about things I liked/disliked. Nowadays we don't really have that communication with them anymore. I pm the admins that are on and I don't get a response anymore :/ I appreciate all of the things that the staff does DO NOT GET ME WRONG. I just want to know what happened to the communication that we had? I realize that we won't be able to go back to the days of having a new Onnet theme every week because that puts a lot of stress on the admins who are voluntary workers because they are understaffed and not everyone does GFX. Basically, what I'd like is where we can talk to admins, they respond, we talk about cool ideas, and not just talk about them but see if we can actually implement them. Once again, no this is not about my nexus theme idea XD the only reason I added that to my original post was because I had to be relevant to this thread somehow.

P.S. Apologies for writing a book

Lol nice job twisting my words XD no its called community and as a fellow graalian I'm just offering my input on how to improve upon the service of the game. From my experiences they have not been high quality and was curious as to why. They don't respond to feedback which is my whole point... lol did you read my response

It's because of the less admins number and the more grail players number now days, their job isn't easy and they're always busy while they're on their admin account. Plus, with 2-4k online players u probably get spammed a lot as an admin. However, they always respond to me on their player account, they're normal people like us on their player accounts and very friendly. But, what annoys me sometimes is when I pm their admin account for a question and they don't respond (not after/before events) I guess it's because they are busy.

^This is why I brought this up
Back when I started graal admins did respond to everyone and I understand that there are more players so that makes it more difficult. I would just like to maybe come to solution if we can help out in anyway or if it will just be ignored...

Can you and everyone else, before making comments like this, at least try and understand what the person youre talking to is trying to say?

What Ruppy is saying is that the staff should should communicate more with the players both for developmental reasons and to establish a good relationship between the two.

It doesn't take much to understand that Dusty's sarcastic response is not what Ruppy is looking for.
Please, read smart*** comments to yourself before posting and decide if it's really worth posting.
