I tried and it's terrible compared to how Uthgard was.

Hopefully the holiday break helped with getting some motivation back. :oops:

Genesis just plain sucks with the most buggy code in existence. Even that Eden instant server is catching up with Genesis. The only reason anyone is on either of those servers is because there is no other choice.

If they just loaded the back up of Uthgard and wiped all the toons and relaunched and never touched anything again it would be way better than anything coming down the road. Uthgard has a perfectly good and balanced server and then they went suicidal and tried to change the patch level and remove everything that made the game fun or easy.

And now it has been down for one whole year. Right now I'm showing 81 guests and 8 members online trying to read about or participate on this forum-- one year after the server went down!

To the people that say that the devs don't owe the players anything-- yes they do! They made a great product and they have tons of loyal fans who love their product and they just took their basketball and went home.

I'm not even talking about me, nobody likes me anyway. But how about those 90 people logging into your website one year after it closed with no news from the devs in months? You owe something to those people, either give them some news, get the server up, or else close the damn thing and don't waste anymore of their time. 30 pages of responses to the last thing you said!

Time is valuable to everyone. Take 5 minutes and post something to tell your players what is going on!

Players can greatly contribute to a server if you let them.

Uthgard, still the best server. Thanks, Devs.

We can hope they will give the data to someone interested in running Uthgard, if they have lost passion for the project.

Or we could crowd source a new version with a new graphic engine ... that would be awesome.

Yeah and do we really care about SI? Who needs it? As far as I've seen, nobody on genesis even GOES to SI for anything other than Sidi. Unless you give some kind of xp bonus there, SI is pretty much gonna be empty. People level in frontiers/DF for the xp bonus, but the xp bonus is only because of the risk in RvR zones and that's the way it should be. The only other reason to have SI zones is if you have like 2k people and there literally aren't enough mobs to go around. Sure, SI is nice to look at and has some decent items but it is not worth the trouble.

(And just leave out Necro, Animist and BD classes too. I'm pretty sure if you took a poll, most people don't want those baby classes anyway. )

Right now there are 110 guests and 7 members online. 118 people are on this site waiting for news!

And yeah, Baman, I don't ever go to SI and there is no reason to go there except for the neck quest. So move the mob to regular lands, hell move sidi entrance to regular lands if you must have the dungeon.

I don't understand how you can have something stable and working and say you cannot bring it back up.

Speaking of backups, if it is somehow so far gone reload that backup tape and lets get going.
