sorry if I seem mad, but this game is crap n it only gets worse. the only way they keep players is the rare, strategic update. i just want this game fixed!
btw i think this quote needs to highlighted here. im mot makin a new thread for it so feel free to comment on this too:

take it from the Era staff, our server sucks! but i dont wanna move to Era, i just want Classic to be better! so classic staff: cut the crap!

The spar scoreboard is the only relevant one and it's not meaningless. People who play on PC's don't have "unfair advantages" unless you count experience. The facebook client is **** and I get less ping on my iPhone. There are many iSparrers that would decimate most "PC sparrers" so where's the advantage there?

Can you do a better job? No so shut up. Considering most staff are not even paid and they have to put up with whiny brats like you on a daily basis I think they are doing a pretty good job. Keep up the good work guys! Also if you think the game is so crap stop playing, and stop filling up the forums with these stupid threads.

Do scoreboards in ANY game ever serve a purpose?

I wouldn't mind if they were removed. It seems like no matter what is done to make them seem accurate, there's always people there to get past it with their boosting and alternate accounts. When it comes to the sparring leaderboards I think there is also a disincentive to participate when you're high up on the list, which isn't really the point. I can't see it being done though; too many people play solely to have their name in lights.

Yeah I would like to just see them reset too.

They are much faster and walk through hits at times. Also you can't combo hit a pc like iphone. When you hit a pc once theres a little delay before you can hit them again.

if all ur going to do is rage at me.... then get. the. fuhk. off. my. threads! plz! no ones forcing you to read them.

and ik staff arent paid, but still Era is doing a better job n they arent paid either. thats my argument. y is the more popular server NOT the better one?
i will no longer reply to useless rage and disrespect. k? bye bye

thats the problem. everyone plays these games for the "recognition". idc. idc wat ppl think of me halfway across the world. they dont know me i dont know them. idc if my fake name is on a scoreboard for them to see; idc if their fake name is on a scoreboard for me to see.

I am really sorry but i have to disagree with you twilit. I dont think this will bring any good at all...

perfect example of "disagreeing politely w/o rage or dosrespect". thank you ma'am : )
yes ik it wont bring good:/ ppl would just nonstop rage. but its so stupid. people cheating n other crap just for "recognition"

Yes that is indeed not right... What i think would be idealistic is since almost everyone disagrees with such actions we should just not give the the recognision they want. Scoreboards are still very helpful if you are in search of a good spar or towertaking guild.

PC sparrers are actually at a disadvantage... Quit raging. iPhone players run 20% faster than the pc client(0.6 vs 0.5 tiles/frame for those wondering.

You rage and flame and I have no right do to so? ok. Also you're not required to view the scores so just dont bother, lol

That barely gives you an advantage, plus half the keyboards cant do that due to keyboard ghosting. (Hardware issue which conflicts with multiple keys pressed down). The only way to truly settle this argument is to have an unbiased opinion, someone who has used both devices..

About 80% of all of graal would argue against this :o the other 20% are PCers in denial.

Dear god twilit... Take a few breaths before going apesh*t on this forum..

First off, you do have a point. Whats going on with the leaderboards right now has been unfair because of the merging and boosting thats been going on lately but these are completely optional. Its not being thrown in your face but if you'd like to, take the chance to practice and probably you'll beat boosters and PC players in sparring.. Sounds hard but could actually be possible..

Second, ranting doesn't boast your argument. Insulting those who are against your suggestion/argument doesn't make you look any better.

Third, Graal Classic is not all about sparring. It never has been all about sparring. While most veterans do have a point that its supposed to be a video game (like LOZ) from the very start, the majority of the server pretty much made Graal Classic more of a social experience game.

Hell, Rufus tried to make it more of a video game by making Graal city a PK zone. But apparently, since every whiny player who rates GP's and pretends to be adopted babies complained about it, they put it back to a non PK zone because they'll never listen to the gamer's side... Only to the side that makes them the most money out of the bunch.

Imma end off my talk to you with the words of RYAN 12312 himself (not to piss you off but in honest word):

twilit..... Just calm the f**k down.

Handicapping!? Really!? You're considering Handicapping as a strong issue between PC and iPhone players?

The only problem with iPhone and PC is just that the arrow keys are smoother.. Still, they play in the same experience. Also, you can easily switch direction of movement by sliding your finger across the D-Pad on the iPhone/iPad.. So its relatively equal in some point

Also, Screen size isn't that too big to call it a serious issue.
This is basically similar to the guy that wanted FB spar players to be in iPhone GST tournaments because the vice versa of that got accepted.

because the majority of Graal plays on iPhone? Of course they are gonna complain about pc, they need an excuse for losing. In all honesty if the server was released on pc first ppl might have complained about iPhone clients. The reason pc sparrers usually do so well is because a lot of them come from having 10 years of experience on pc graal. you actually move slower on the pc client and it lags more... and the touch screen is far more responsive than a keyboard because of hardware reasons.
