Well... everybody can't be happy it seems. First... you complain about the fact that twenty or so go inactive a day. THEN... a person makes an ideal, sound suggestion of a way to mitigate the drop in players... only to be shot down citing MORE people will leave through the solution... and I'm sorry all... that is likely to hit all of the worlds (this is really a business after all) at some point or another eventually? Doesn't make sense to me. It seems either way... people are leaving... BUT... with the rendering of W8 into a premium world... it will subjugate new players into the world. Minions folks! Hellstrom shouldn't be the only to get em...
For me... who is a great lover of the adventurous quests and finding stuff... W8 is ideal! I don't get hounded to participate in fort fights (though in truth, I like the new reward system so have found myself participating more often), but more importantly... I rarely get dueled! Nothing irks my goat more than being in the middle of a time required quest, or WORSE... being en route to some far distant land to take part in a quest... only to have some mad happy I can KO ANYbody (as long as they're twenty duel levels below me) types come along and end my journey for no apparent reason other than I exist and shouldn't apparently. *Shakes fist and returns to her regularly scheduled forum skating*
