Hey... Well it's my first day back from being banned haha so i read up a little so see what was going on... well only thing i have to say is, I dont care anymore about the pvp, the pvm, the pve anything... If it means changing things around to suite the players of the shard, to make people like the pvp and pvm, im all for it. I've enjoyed the pvp, xuo style, for all the years its been here... Although i would like to see some changes to it always, not major, but minor, which can make other spells more usefull, and same with weapons and armors...

I agree with the IN players in the way they look at things, well certain things... I always look at things in a neutural prospective, and well ive come across somethings that must be changed...

We need variety, im not going to go into depth, but one thing i must say we have to change is the way its too hard to get things here... i recently went over to diff shards to see what made them successfull and what attracts servers and ive come across a few things....

first off, things here are way to hard to get... i dont like how these rides are too rare, and the lack of collectables....

we should make BOC's that make allow us to have certain hammers, items, etc... that will only be attainable by BOC's ( bulk order deeds ).

we need to allow players to get their hands on things such as rides, armors, weapons, verieties... maybe implement the industructable surpassingly accurate hardening etc.... this way theres a list of items u can get....

here as it stands u get a vanq bard and ur done... atleast that way theres various combos of weapons and their strengths.... etc...

as i said im not going into depth cause i hate typing and frankly i type for nothign sometimes cause not many ppl read it and take it into consideration... id rather speak to maka or an admin or high staff who will write this down and forward it on...

so yeah, various rides, orns, ost, llamas, collored all colors, etc... we need more things here... at the moment all u need is pots,scrolls,armor, ride... its boring... not enough collectables, everything is too hard to attain and people dont like that... i went to this +1200 server and i saw how easy it was to attain certain things that associate around pvp and how hard it was to get other things that were pvm/rp based... i like how it is and so do the players, and the populations reflects it.

we need DIVERSITY.... we lack too much of that.... on big issue too is the team tourney tickets. these things are too useless and should be removed... they have no value and everyone just double clicks them... if you want them implemented, make them have a good reason to have them because right now no one cares about them... and thats whats being handed out in events??

also... CHANGE THE DAMN TOURNIES. always a rep, or reg... wheres the monster bashs, ctf's, etc... once again DIVERSITY... we need scripted 1vs1 tournies... no need for gms anymore, time to upgrade... ive seen shards run off scripts and its flawless... u signup at an npc and he takes u guys and sets u up randomly and script teles u when its ur time to duel...

i have other ideas which i must speak to gm cause im not typing anymore, just a taste of what i think...

KEYWORD to the staff here at INX: we need DIVERSITY... we need more items, craftables, etc...

Agreed.

As I tried to point out to Hate in another thread, maybe the problem lies in the nature of this ''agreement'' which teorically makes up the essence of the shard: XUO's pvp and IN's...uhm, stuff.
I've played in IN for quite a bit and let me tell ya, the feel of the world and monster/treasure hunting is nothing like it was back then. I'm not saying it's pure crap the way it is now, but mentioning that damn ''agreement'' to state that IN got their end of the deal so XUO should keep their PVP is a disonest argument, cuz:
a) There's barely any elements from IN in the current world.
b) Saying that we got our RP is just nonsense, since RP is basically a player-driven effort with ocasional event support from the staff.

As Silverwolf stated, we NEED diversity. Not having crap to aim for is no fun at all. Even if the XUO pvp is actually that fun as some say, what about those who don't pvp at all? Let me tell you something, back in IN I used to hunt around with magical weapon + magical armor + regs + bandies + misc stuff; right now, all I need is a bardiche, some bandies and a lute. That's it. There's no point in collecting any magic weapon I end up finding in monster loot because they're useless and a normal bardiche does more damage than anything else...but we can't change that, cuz it'll ''ruin'' (?) the PVP, as some claimed. There's no point in training blacksmithing because, well, who's going to buy the armor you produce? The fact that there's no special craftable magic weapons (which could ''ruin the pvp'' ) just catalyzes BS's fall into the oblivion.

Yet again, as Silverwolf stated, we NEED diversity. Honestly, who cares about XUO's this or IN's that when no one's playing? Take a look at the player base: ~120 players amongst who XUO and IN are probably the minority. Why not make a brand new shard for mostly brand new players, as well some veterans who might want to try something different? C'mon, you can't expect to make a large shard out of a deja vu.
