IDEAS FOR RYZOM


bulk upgrade for apartment

To continue my thoughts. I often, I guess, sound "negative" on suggestions because I don't see them as being either 1) important or 2) well thought out or 3) both. I'd like to see the various teams working more on new events and development of the world than on more storage.

Look at what we have gotten recently. Fires are coming, we are told. We have the Pathfinder missions that have given high fame neutrals four extra ways to get to the surface high level areas. Those are supposed to be part of the Ranger training, but they aren't being restricted except by Fame. Recently the Mara got their cosmetologists and at least theoretical guards. A white kitin was captured (with the aid of the Event Team) and a mission set up to feed it. So, the teams *are* working, they just aren't working on the projects *you* want them to be working on, and they aren't working fast. Given the small number of people on the teams (as reported) it's a miracle *anything* gets done. Given that same small number of people, it's obvious why they don't advertise a lot of things until they are ready or almost ready; vapor ware is worse than silence.

Then we have an apparently large amount of work on the 10th Anniv. celebration and on Anlor Winn and on Yubo golf (which was a recent suggestion by Zakkk on the IRC). Clearly someone thought Yubo Golf would be a fantastically fun thing and took it as a project. Someone else thought that we should have a fancy blow-out for 10th Anniv. and Goki did a lot of work to make it happen. I'm not sure about the effort for Anlor Winn, but someone created pumpkin circles, and clearly the Event Team enjoys playing spirits.

This shows me that the team will put in work on the things *they* enjoy/think are important. Since they aren't paid, I can't fault them.

The differences in our viewpoints may simply be that I (IRL) am older than you and have worked on my share of large projects with low numbers of volunteer workers, and therefore that I am more sympathetic to the team members.
