Re: Client source upgrade
It sounds like a great idea until you actually think about what would happen to the original world. Nothing good, that's for sure. Kinda sucks for all the people who'd prefer not to start over, not to mention those who actually keep the server running by donating. It's gonna be awesome for them to have it all become irrelevant because world 1 is practically dead. Even if the player drop is less severe it's still gonna suck for a lot of people. Absolutely terrible idea.

The argument that " Omg you'd be splitting the community apart!" is only as relevant as having updates literally every week like other rsps' do. The new source will open door for more content, but how long will that be a muse? People will complain that they gotten everything possible, played the new areas and are already bored. Kraken for example, became dead content. Yeah, you can fix its drop table, and add new items, but after a while people will claim bordem.
With a 2nd world, you're giving both OLD and NEW players the same advantage and playing field. In all honesty, if this idea was ever to happen, donating would only be allowed for premium, donator and honor. A new beginning without custom whips, everyone starting from the same beginning from the most part, and actually giving people the availability to do something actually interesting without the sudden urge to up and quit because they're already heavily out matched in PVM and PVP, is an exceptional ideal. Yes, there would have to be well thought out server concepts, restrictions etc, but it would give a new take to this already present server. Attraction is key, new players always flock to new outcoming rsps when they see how great the potential of the server can be.
You give them something like this where they can play on a brand new server, but still have the ability to swap between the new and old server to play as they choose, then it's hard to really lose players, but easy to gain back old players and even new ones.
I know I'd play again if there was a fresh new eco.

You act as if it's the same people donating, or that everyone is going to run torward either side lol.Rapsey wrote:It sounds like a great idea until you actually think about what would happen to the original world.

The luxury of the server as it is, has been torn apart and rebuilt how many times? Were you guys saying this when the server had 50-80 players on at a single time because of all the ddosing? How about before Mike started putting out updates? Im sure the server was ever so appealing to new players. Making a another world isn't demanding those who don't want to, to start over. You're giving a new chance for both old and new to have fun, isn't that the point of a Rsps lmao? They choose to donate to the server for ingame financial gain, or to not have to work to buy a status. How exactly is it going to hurt donators lol? Are people under the assumption that if this was to happen, everyone or a great majority at the very least would run to the new world and abandoned the current?
Well, that's might bold of some think that, but I can't see it being THAT detrimental to the current standing. But hey, if by some slim chance it did happen, doesn't thay only prove the point of a 2nd world lol? Clearly if there's ample amounts of players on the new world, and not the old, then that's what people rather play and enjoy.

Re: Client source upgrade
What the people are trying to say my pedigree chum admins is that PkHonor is dead as fuck, this new source could be a really nice chance to reboot the server.
Honestly, I would open a second world along with the one we currently have but make our current server a "legacy" server and the new and improved version the main "world 1" server, I've had near 7 years of progress on that server and I agree with the aforementioned wholeheartedly.
IF Michael is capable of producing a near identical OSRS style server it would be a huge hit, no other server is capable of doing this at the moment as they either don't have the resources or they're incapable, PkHonor already has 90% of OSRS implemented (skills, bosses, weapons) so adding the new content is a much smaller challenge in comparison to our competitor servers who have to build everything from the ground up (and even once they've done that they're missing elements of the update due to inconsistencies in their server).
An OSRS style server with the best fundamental components from Runescape when it was in its prime (Nex, Corp, WW). It would be a huge success if it was done correctly.

Ok.
simply because the community doesnt't want us to attend to any of these, its not our choice, its the communities fault for not allowing us to do these things, don't blame us, blame yourselves.
