Blue, if you get around to reading this, would you please dedicate us a minute of your time and tell us what is the status of the revamp, what are you working on now, and are we close to relaunch at all? Noboby exept you seems to know anything around here since the majority of this project rests on your shoulders.

Haven't you been paying attention, Blue has been MIA for 1.5 years (or more) with RL issues and who know when or if he will ever return to the project. The only members who are around are just supervising the forums. The project is on a dead stop for who knows how long.

They have nothing productive to show and are showing us old material because nothing has been done.

I would rather see the old Uthgard return then have it die forever, after playing on Genesis new RA's is looking pretty dam appealing.

I have been paying attention. I am also paying attention to the fact that i can see Blue browsing this forum right now according to the indicator on the bottom of the page. He might not post much but he is here and he can tell us whats going on if he chooses to do so.

Oh the irony!

Too slow mate

This is not currently a blocking issue, meaning we're not waiting on that.

Blue checks the forum daily. Does not need to post.

Abydos - Sure he doesn't need to, but he could if we ask him nice enough

oh i hope blue has no fking clue what goes on in these forums, how off putting would it be to dedicate some time into the uthgard revamp for such a bunch of ungreatful kunts ( even if u are the minority ) ignorance is bliss!

This is the best news in awhile. Thanks Abydos. Wow, you can see the finish line! Can that include some sort of ETA or are you using a telescope?

i guess i am not the only person that notices skarz poor tries to get some bonus points for a gamemaster application on 2.0

Update:

I was able to speak to Blue today and would like to report that he is active, alive and breathing. He reminded me about the staff forum activity policy. It went into effect as revamp started and basically it is to stop dev forum activity in order to prevent conflicting statements between different staff members. He indicated that in the past it has shown to slow down the productivity. He did not specify what he is currently working on or provided any eta unfortunately. Hey, at least he is active and he is here lurking in the shadows!

Prey: The target/victim of a predator [or] the act of causing harm or distress to something/somebody else.
Pray: A religious act performed in hopes of divine intervention.

ty, now ur post is irrelevant.

Start the beta and most of the ppl calm down. It ´s just it ´s getting harder every day to keep patient, I think the staff understands and shares this feeling.

Many of us checking this forum daily and if you finally get a post by a staff member with nearly no content in it and further an IRC log that proves that the staff itself seems to have a lag in communication it ´s just frustrating, sorry to say that.

To blame Bloodwyne for posting some real conversation between staff members in an open chat is a poor attempt too. If you can ´t bear to face the truth, then don ´t deal with it.
And if you ´re not able to draw the right conclusions from this little conversation between the lines, then it can ´t be helped.

Uthgard will be back someday, even if there will be a loss of some gamemasters I ´m pretty sure this baby won ´t die. The main issue is the downtime and progress speed of this project, it ´s just way too slow and the players are not really involved in the progress. .

You can say stfu it ´s a free project staff don ´t owe us nothing and you ´re probably right about it, but that simple fact don ´t prevent ppl from abadnon hope and leave this community while they lost patience. We need a strong playerbase in the future and every loss on players is a shame for Uthgard.

How to prevent that? Toss some news about your work /progress sometimes, and open this server for testing as soon as possible ppl would be calm and keep positive. This is fair enough for the majority of this community and should deal with the upcoming frustration here, it ´s not that hard.
