Re: SVN 337 Update (July 1st, 2009)
Updates are going to happen and change are going to occur. Some folks will like them, some won't. Templates are going to have to change, pets are going to have to change. In order to follow OSI, all of these things are going to happen.
Oh, and if you seriously don't think staff put more time into this server than any given player - you are living in a dream world. Staff members not only work in game, they work on the forums and in IRC too and its generally around the clock. We have some down time here and there but... wow - you may log in and play for 3 hours... but what if you had people calling you for questions (other staff members) or had to be on constant high alert for player issues? Being staff drains into your real life whether you like it or not. So - don't go wagging the ole you-don't-spend-as-much-time-as-I-do-boo-hoo finger. Tell me your char and I'll pull your props. We can compare in game hours: Ferris' staff to your player.
You aren't the only person affected by these changes and these changes aren't the only ones affecting players. Everyone will live, even if you think its the end of your gaming world.
So, in the words of my father "man up or walk away."
