I know this has been on since god-knows-when...but please Sparkie. We, the Community from Morai, dont really have a place to discuss the things that are going on around our server anywhere.

So may I ask you to just add the Morai Server to the Server Symposium Sub-Forum? I mean...thats done in seconds...and even tho this is a different site from the EU ones...the GMs there should be able to check those forums once in a while.

WE, as a community, beg you, Sparkiesoft, our beloved CM, to give us a place in this Forum where we can be a community and discuss community related things that are off-topic for other server. I really think you noticed that threads from morai ppl regarding morai issues have flooded the regular forums General Discussion.

I hope this thread servers the purpose in an appropriate manner. Thank you.

    The answer will be to go to the english section on ex-Lothranis forum since we have a dedicated CM there (with some mods)
    The main problem still is that this would take us appart from the community for all the other topics...
    But don't expect another reply, even if this is sad.

    It would be so much better if we could somehow integrate the english ex-lothranis forums with a sub-section here for Morai server forums. That way both sparkie and Enelimm can see what goes on on eachother's servers. As it is now, the english section of Lothranis-forums are as dead as it gets.
    Since when do we have mods there too o.o

    edit: checked the english section there again and even our CM points us to the US support for bugs >.> some things never change I guess.

    Looks like PWE is a team of 4 people working on 20 games at same time, they don't have enough time for PWI. b:laugh

    Well that was an exaggeration indeed, but yeah, they don't seem have a specific team for each game, which is a fail mismanagement.

    Not much of one. Last I was informed, PWE's "support staff" consisted of around 25 college interns supporting all 16-ish titles and their million+ user bases.

    Well Enelimm said few weeks ago ingame. That the PWI head office have to decide to make a english based Morai forum/facebook. till then we have to stick with the heavy outdated france/german facebook and forum.

    But think the PWI head office never been to europe and we have like 50 different languages. and French and German is not the main language in Europe but english it is b:laugh

    I doubt sparkie have the power of doing that, he doesn't even have the power to change a simple avatar on the forum, doubt he can create a whole new section if he's that limited.

    I don't even know if someone have those power atm on this forum. Maybe DoD by any chance.

    Adding a new subforum is as simple as adding a new thread, the only difference is it requires powers (like mods can move threads and we can't) to create a subforum. So yes, sparkie does have those powers available to him as CM I imagine.

    The Avatar issue is a coding issue..nothing to do with forum powers or not. Someone from their IT has to dig into the code for the avatars/site and see where they screwed up: always a fun activity.

    The current issue with avatars is coding, yes... but what Bella was talking about when it comes to manually changing them is a permissions issue. Just like how mods have the permission to post in locked threads while a regular poster does not.

    And, in this case, Bella's probably right.

    Sparkie doesn't have a lot of power on the forum (I know it's stupid, we could expect the CM to have all power, but he doesn't), but he probably can communicate the request to whoever have the power and I think it's a good idea to add a server section for Morai, but don't put too much hope on the CM/GM checking it, the mods will check cause it's pretty much their jobs to check everything, but the CM doesn't have time read servers **** about who got the biggest bow and who's the best of 201*. xD

    Ok then that's my bad, really expected a Community Manager to have the powers to Manage the Community's platform ._. (although expecting PWI's management to be logical was my 1st mistake I guess b:surrender )
    Ain't nobody got time to read about who got the biggest pixel ego, but sadly that's all we get xD

    Actually, I can still access the rankings just fine by blocking the redirect script with ABP, which I posted as a workaround when the redirect first showed up. They go weeks at a time without being updated sometimes, and then start working again sometimes, so they're absurdly unreliable, but they can be viewed.

    Yep. I would say that the last update (for Morai at least) was maybe two or three months ago.
    As you said it happened already several times to have several weeks without any update and then finaly see some updates. However with all the changes with Arc I don't really expect to see any new update, except if they decide to move it into Arc.

    I don't know about other servers, but Archosaur's has been updating for the past week or so. Before that it was frozen for weeks if not months, but it was updating at least over last weekend.

    It is not hard for PWI to add a new sub-forum and they have done so recently. Namely here http://pwi-forum.perfectworld.com/forumdisplay.php?f=331 <--that one is new. However, the reason this isn't gonna happen is because the European team is different than the American team. The EU Team has it's own community manager, events, etc. It is different than the US team and they work in different timezones. Pretty sure this has been stated in the past, I'll see if I can dig up the GM link on that.

    Hey folks,

    I've checked with the EU team, and there is definitely a plan to create a Morai specific forum, with sections for each language.

    Unfortunately, we don't have a firm timeline on when this will occur.
    - Val

    Yeah it's because the EU team is making it's own forum. I'll ask Sparkie though about if we can get an update on when this will occur.
