My Observations (Very Lengthy!)

[Matt]

Just saying that makes you seem like a jealous school girl trying to stir up drama in peoples projects to keep yours the most popular. You boast the 100% free part until someone does something original, then you get all pissy :3. Haha..

Well I don't Duck care I don't really think we are in a Debian/Ubuntu position here.

And stop editing quotes

@ OP: This is beginning to be one of the most controversial posts. Seems that only the hardcore members can disagree, but of course they will, its their project and they are proud. I would be too. But its gonna take some new perspectives to keep this server afloat. Also, does anyone even advertise this game? No one really takes initiative to find players, only let players find them. Shame shame.

If by "perspectives", you mean "programmers", you are right. TMW does not need new perspectives, it needs more good C++ programmers.

And there really is no reason to advertise the game yet, it's still pre-alpha, and it feels like it. I have recommended TMW to people before, and they enjoy it, but seriously it's not yet ready for the lime light. Anyhow, I'm sure TMW should get enough attention being in the CCA's this year.

Also, you may have totally missed it but, yesterday 7 new maps, 1 map has a new west border, 1 new baddy, the dyer money sink, water bottles are now easier to get, oranges, tank tops, warlord plate, bug fixes, and probably more has gotten updated into the game that I can't think of. It may have taken a bit of time, but seriously, I don't see TMW dying anytime soon. (it will take players a couple months just to memorize the cave maps and not get lost )

It may have taken a bit of time,

That's it... They should have been released much sooner (after all, I know you had the material for some time).

The problem, is that you've lost your focus. You're concentrating too much on TMWserv, and not enough on the current server.

And no, eA is not broken, nor ever was broken. It seems that it hasn't been used correctly (take for example, the rapid-attack bug - simply a mis-configuration).

Well, correct me if I’m wrong, but I always thought this project was about creating TMWserv, eAthena is merely a tool used on the way towards a joyful experience on TMW’s own server.

Indeed. But somehow our playerbase grow and grow ^^
