Admin Treatment

[Zany]

These people (the admins) have lives outside of Era. Graal is NOT a job and these people are human beings. They still have to do things that can keep them from focusing their lives on the game, which is totally understandable. The people who are constantly complaining about the faults of Era is that, to be honest, nobody has control of it. It's just a matter of circumstance, and that events happen in the admin's lives which may cause them from either putting in their all or even being there to put in that effort.

Frankly, I don't like the direction the game has been going either, but does that mean you go out of your way to harass these people just because they don't, again, live up to your expectations and come at your beck and call? No, it shouldn't, and if it does, you are ignoring every single piece and factor that goes into what makes the game "bad" or "dead" just so you can feel right.

Thank you, THANK YOU!!

PRs get a crap ton of the blame because they?re most accessible to players. I?ve been harassed for developmental and PRA based problems that I have absolutely NO connections to. But that part about not living up to player expectations and not going to their becking call, I swear, made me want to cry, because you?re a player who is actually seeing this reality. They?re treated like slaves. PRs are set up for failure, and anytime light is brought to them being HUMAN, the harassment gets worse. It?s basically ?Chop chop admin, host. Jail this guy for me. If you jail me for being racist though, you?re wrong and abusive. I?m rEpOrTiNg YoU tO tOoNsLaB!? Day in, day out. No appreciation. I got a threat of being tracked down once because of my age.

But this thread is just, tr?s magnifique!

This is what we need players to see. Some bad apples may be there, but the staff who try, just want to do their job, and live their lives, deserve more respect than they get. It is so, so sad how abusive players get towards staff, who are also players.

We give them a small update, they bash the creator and tell us to focus on better stuff
We give them new content, they still complain
I?m not saying we?re perfect, but you can?t expect us to be at our best if you don?t let us go through trial and error.
(Just to clarify not everyone does this, though based on personal experience, a significant amount does).
Though I?m still happy to see the good people who are very nice to the team, and still believe in the game
And this thread is the proof that there still is a large quantity of people who love, who accept, who envision a better future.
Thank you

This too ^^
Another thing is that players expect everyone to be pleased. They don?t like a VIP item, they riot in start and complain. Anyone else who likes the item is stupid.
They complain for updates but no matter what update is given, it?s not good enough. Like Joey said perfectly, TRIAL AND ERROR. You can not please everybody but for gods sake, be grateful that staff are even trying despite the amount of pure hatred is spewed back whenever they breath wrong. And don?t even get me started on events. People on here already hate me for my event-hosting rants. Staff have some sense. Many complained after the upload currency update but the alternative was no more customs, period. Staff could of made their lives easier, said “screw it” and cut it out. But they didn’t.

Staff try. They won?t always meet ever raising expectations. The old staff are in the past and change needs to be embraced and seen in another light. Never say they do nothing because it?s sad that so many firmly believe that ALL staff don?t do anything. Only then will the game truly be ?dead?.
