| Romper Profession: Elite Knight Level: 474 Fishing lord of Gone fishing Posts: 14 | Hmmm Well iam up for a reset BUT only with some benefits otherwise i have waste alot of time for nothing. but iam sure if Zeal make an announcement for example: At November the first will be a reset then i think it be more players but even if it be more players that come must be some changes so the ones that come also stay. I like this server and iam enjoying to play here again but iam not sure i would start a new char from scratch without some compensation. is pretty many hours spent on my chars But i think a reset would be good but if it be so is up to Zeal to decide just hope he read this. Rekkmin talked to me too some days ago about lack out of changes and what if a reset and so on. | |

| Zeal Profession: Knight Level: 71157 Posts: 169 | This has come up before and I was mostly against the idea. I'd probably be ok with it now, if the current players want it. As for compensation... what sort of compensation would you suggest that wouldn't drive potential new players away? The other issue is how many would actually stay? I'm not looking to restart the server once every year or so. And I know for a fact there are a few players who are against a reset & value their characters. ... As for updates, there are two main reasons why there haven't been any of late: 1. No bug reports to fix. Although there have been a handful of bug fixes done, but I don't log these on the site. 2. Lack of time of late; new parent & all. 3. Zeal Online is in a pretty good place right now and I honestly don't know what I would change. I like its balance of new features and staying true to the spirit of original Tibia. | |

| Romper Profession: Elite Knight Level: 474 Fishing lord of Gone fishing Posts: 14 | Yoyo Well first of all i say the server is great and so on.... But. 1. because of lack of players we realy cant bring some of the bosses down or inq To solve this perhaps possible to reduce the bosses hp or their damage so it be possible to bring those bosses down that on real tibia would take a huge army to get it down? 2. compensation hmm not realy right word but naah its fine as it is. 3. about some bosses isnt it possible to manage that the strenght and hp depends on how many online and what lvls that are online i think it should be possible even tho i understand you want this server as much as possible be like real tibia. but i also feel as it is atm i will never be able to take some of bosses down even if its me zyl and rekk its sad because we want to bring those bosses down that exist on the server. and not be able to do it because of lack of people and our lvls might be to low Im not say it should be easy but it should be possible and if more people play then just adjust back the bosses original strenght and hp. just an idea and would be damn fun if it be possible to get bosses down even if its just a few players that playing still. its your server and your decission im up for anything but would be more fun to know it be possible to bring bosses down and not have to be lvl 2000 to be able to get gazhargoth or whatever big bosses name are. btw gratz to be a daddy | |

| Zeal Profession: Knight Level: 71157 Posts: 169 | WE are going to try out a double-exp weekend, on the 10th and 11th. If it is successful we can think about doing another one in the future and doing it on a date range other than a weekend. | |

| Rekkmin Profession: Elder Druid Level: 471 Fishermen of Gone fishing Posts: 24 | problem isn´t the levels, its the people online. When someone enters this server and finds less than 5 online.. it doesnt seem appealing and ppl will try and find more populated servers | |
| 25.08.16 16:25:59 | ||
| Zeal Profession: Knight Level: 71157 Posts: 169 | And sadly, that is a vicious cycle... if people don't stay and play, there will never be any online. Which is why I've always strongly encouraged word of mouth from current players. | |

| Megan Fox Profession: Elder Druid Level: 650 VIP of Famouz Posts: 40 | Me and Jason stand by the decision of the owner of the server. So Gaf, it's your call. We are fine with both options (reset / no reset), we will always stay part of Zeal. | |
| 25.08.16 19:11:54 | ||
| Rekkmin Profession: Elder Druid Level: 471 Fishermen of Gone fishing Posts: 24 | I second that! I´ll stand by you 100% I strongly doubt that a reset in itself will bring more ppl, the thing that would draw ppl is the fact that (and this is just an hypothesis) the players will be more online to race for 1st place and to do quests BUT it might also get the existing players to feel screwed and then make them look for another server. Here´s an idea IF you go through with reset: Take the top players of each voc and make 'em raid bosses  With Ferumbras difficulty ofc =P | |

| Will Smith Profession: Royal Paladin Level: 429 Posts: 19 | I have no problems with a reset. I don't know if it will bring new ppl in, but who cares; the old ppl stay and will lvl and quest again :P Maybe start with a newer tibia client, so we can experience the new adventures  I do think you should reward the few players after te reset with maybe one rare mount, which will not be available ingame. (you can only get it by reaching 200+ or 300+ on this version). | |

| Zeal Profession: Knight Level: 71157 Posts: 169 | Well I'm still hoping that the EXP weekend will drum up some interest. If we can get some decent numbers of people online it may push us up in the OT lists to grab a few new players. who knows. | |

| Rekkmin Profession: Elder Druid Level: 471 Fishermen of Gone fishing Posts: 24 | Let us just not put our faith in 1 weekend and aim for at least 4 or 5 before we jump to our guns | |

| Zeal Profession: Knight Level: 71157 Posts: 169 | I wouldn't worry about me hastily making a decision to reset the server. Most players I seem to talk to are against the idea and I care about the current players more than potential new ones. We'll see how this upcoming weekend goes and maybe other promotion ideas after that. Also I made a simple custom client for Zeal Online to make it easier for new players who are not familiar with other OpenTibia servers (also, IP changer tends to get blocked by some anti-virus software erroneously). You guys can continue to use IP changer & the official 10.41 client if you want, of course. The only change to the new client is changing the IP. | |

| Will Smith Profession: Royal Paladin Level: 429 Posts: 19 | As one of the top 10 players of this server, I'm edging more and more towards a reset. It's because I've been playing a few other servers on the new client. It's always cool to explore new areas & quests, gather new outfits, encounter the newest monsters, ... Personally I don't need compensation for all the time I played here. But I know some other ppl will want something in return for their investment here. How can you please them? - give 1 rare mount for ppl lvl 300+, 2 mounts for 400+, ... (there are many new itemshop mounts available in the new client) - make a double exp / double loot weekend in the start so ppl can get some kind of headstart to get some lvls back fast. I am playing a game for fun, not to login my char from time to time to make sure I don't lose my house... And these days I play way more on other servers. I haven't seen anyone give a reason why they are so heavily against a reset. Cuz I always see 0-2 ppl online... It's gonna be fcking funny if everyone is back noob and can exp exp exp again Cmon guys, let's go noobstyle again. Hunt some cyclops etc and tackle the old and new quests together again!!! | |
