[Holding the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch]
King Arthur: How does it... um... how does it work?
Sir Lancelot: I know not, my liege.
King Arthur: Consult the Book of Armaments.
Brother Maynard: Armaments, chapter two, verses nine through twenty-one.
Cleric: [reading] And Saint Attila raised the hand grenade up on high, saying, "O Lord, bless this thy hand grenade, that with it thou mayst blow thine enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy." And the Lord did grin. And the people did feast upon the lambs and sloths, and carp and anchovies, and orangutans and breakfast cereals, and fruit-bats and large chu...
Brother Maynard: Skip a bit, Brother...
Cleric: And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it.
Brother Maynard: Amen.
All: Amen.
King Arthur: Right. One... two... five.
Galahad: Three, sir.
King Arthur: Three.
This message used to be meaningful.

I dont know if this is already going to happen. But people who are playing now should get a special item that is Non-Drop and is not found in game or is very hard to find based on their level. In example, a lvl 20 would get a ring that adds 5% hp. And a lvl 100 would get a better item such as a really good armor. just a thought.

I disagree. How would u explain existing 3000 items called ultra very rare (or something). In my opinion player should receive something like medallion or certificate. Without any bonuses, special skills, etc.

whatever.

Thats a bad idea... because many things of the game are unbalanced... and that kind of reward would unbalance the game again... For example there is a big difference between player fighting with a sword and a player using the bow. Sword fighting needs a lot more time to level up because their attack speed depends on their stats points. On the other hand the bow depends on the stats points too but that can be easily bypassed by movement (everyone does that)...

I'm of the opinion that a wipe should wipe everything except the players name (because of name stealing).

I already suggested an "useless" t-shirt for player of the alpha version...
Item-name: lousy t-shirt
Description: I played the pre-alpha for hours and all I got was that lousy t-shirt
Peacemaker: Level 58 - STR 60+ / AGI 30 / VIT 36 / INT 5 / DEX 20 / LUK 5 - wiped because of inactivity... :(

Maybe you should ask yourself: for what reason did you play until now? Just to reach a high level? What did you got by archieving that?
Because not to save the personages to play in the new server?
When you are trying to ask why we won't transfer the characters to the new server the answer is that the gameplay and character system will be so fundemantally different on the new server that it will be impossible to convert the characters in a fair way. It will look the same but it will be an entirely different game.
which 2007 month approximately all the players will lose its personages?[/b]
This is impossible to say at the moment. But there will most likely be some content updates before we switch to the new server including a rudimentary crafting system and a new city. So no reason to quit playing.
