granadora Thank you for bringing these issues up !
- I believe population is low because we are having some issues trying to access the new v2, if loyal staff members having a hard time logging in, imagine what a new player must go through to eventually play.
and yes, you are right, rswebclients was a major player source for us and i believe it will be once again when version 2 is completely implemented.
- Un-reset the eco wouldn't be a good idea, the eco went crazy last week when we actually asked max to reset it.
Imagine this scene - 6 players standing with Max at falador home, Everyone of them wearing FULL vesta \ end-game weapon \ DFS , and each has a bank worth of more than 15bil. (this is less than a month since the last reset to remind you).
At that point players lost intrest in the game, nothing more to accomplish - meaning steps must be taken or we will lose players drastically.
Regardless, I don't know if you know but a week ago we had a 48 hours period in which we had Avatar of destruction having 1 health bar and dropping 450mil at 100% rate.
Players actually abused this and got way way way rich, able to buy everything, this abuse completely ruined the eco, some player even got banned due to this abuse !
- Thing is, both me and Hardstylez are currently the only moderators on the server. and BOTH of us can't load version 2.0 due to technical issues so for the last 2 days we were not able to login.
Trust that we are doing heavy efforts trying to solve this in many different ways, but it's not always up to us...
