New Server! (Read)
 
I'm planning on creating a new server sometime within the week. I'm looking forward to hiring some-what experienced level designers. Im not a big fan of scripting, which is why I'm definitely looking for someone who is experienced with scripting that could help me run the server. The server will be based upon free-work, and just having fun. Eventually we will open the server to the public. Very appreciated if some of the staff have Skype, as we could easily communicate while making levels, etc. I'm looking into hiring people that don't work for 5 different servers, and are looking forward to being dedicated to my server mostly. I, will try my best to maintain this server to the best of its abilities. If you would like to be hired, please post a reply here listing some of your work maybe? If not, you can always contact me through Skype.

Not sure if you posted this thread in the right place.

But iClassic is currently struggling with getting more experienced scripters, I'm not sure how many you will be able to find for your server, but good luck. Obviously finding GPs will be a piece of cake.

You should post it here. Else good luck with your server.

We won't be looking forward to hiring any GPs before the server is at least 50% done. For the starting point, we are just going to put our some work and see what we can do.

I've ran a server before. And may we set aside my Classic character from this? ;)
The iTunes is used to reward members for hard work, otherwise they feel like there is no need for helping at a tower. I do have some very loyal members and come Ncs that wouldn't think of even collecting any iTunes. Also, Its really not a problem for me because half of the people leave after a week, and most don't survive all 2 weeks, so I only give out maybe 5-15 every 2 weeks?

Wrong forum. But even then I love how players just decide one day that they're going to make a server.

Do you have a plan for the server? A group of people you know who can help? Can you script? Do you have other people who can script? Scripters are a necessity for a successful server. Are you prepared to put in the time and effort in order to make your server successful? Do you have others who are also willing?

You'd better organize yourself before you waste your money on a server. Make a plan for it, organize people who can help you, get some scripters. Rome wasn't built in a day. And a lot of players expect to hop on a server and for it to be the best in graal within 3 months.

The use of real world money (itunes) to trade for services/items/ect in game is illegal in any online game ive ever played. And its unsportsmanlike (if tower takin' is a sport) to pay your members, not many guild leaders (if any) can afford itunes. Therfore you have a unfair "advantage" which should be looked upon by a high staff member.

Higbey 02-21-2012 11:05 PM

Let me check the graalonline policy, pretty sure selling iTunes cards for service is against the rules.

Graal just doesn't have the huge playerbase to fill up your server nor any real scripters or coders that will take the time to develop an entire server for you.

iPhone based servers are the future of Graal, as much as old players want to cling onto the pc origins, and new people who want to make their own servers.

LordBryson 02-21-2012 11:23 PM

If I was you I would just save my money.

WarrLordd 02-21-2012 11:25 PM

Hmm i'll be honest running a server is NOT EASY.

I mean i been here before era was even out on graal pc so that's like since 03/04 and honestly after era no other server hit the classic tab for others to play. Not saying you should not try but i think it's a waste of time until you get a dedicated team.

God 02-22-2012 03:50 AM

If you can get me the terms of service page where it says real world trading is illegal i can get it to stop. Justice for the poor!

Pauli 02-22-2012 08:22 AM

What of style will it be ?
