[quote="REDVII"]I thought the VT community was going to give updates every six weeks[/quote]

[quote="FOXTRCK"]Most of us went our separate ways I'm afraid and we could all be negative if we tried explaining "the why" but it won't do the longevity of the server or mood of the community much good to know the details. Instead, enjoy the game for what it is / what is left. :)[/quote]

[quote="GENTRY"]what's actually been introduced by the VT group that's now in-game? would like to know what has been accomplished during it's time[/quote]

[quote="LUTHER"]i can see how it might be a bit mentally draining for gms having a million people suggesting stuff but i think there are members who should be given the chance to provide content e.g ask ravensoul if he wants to do community events like treasure hunts/quizzes etc twice a week and provide prizes for him to give out. Or ask Mickyc to continue writing role-play content for new items/quests/recipes like there was for the anvil update for the website and social media no harm in delegating if its to the right people[/quote]

[quote="SHAILO"]Its a shame Chojine's new wep/armour templates were never completed. Seems this is the only real obstacle in regards to creating brand new content.[/quote]

[quote="FOXTRCK"][quote="RYUZAKI"][quote="FOXTRCK"] Instead, enjoy the game for what is left. :)[/quote] o0[/quote] Nothing meant by it. Enjoy it for what it is, as long as it'll last, in mind the servers 7(?) years old ;p[/quote]

[quote="RAVENSOUL"]Nearly 7 years, and iSylver and finito are still giving there free time, energy and commitment to this great game. Soma has a great future with them both.[/quote]

[quote="MEMORY"]If donate shop was more efficient and had better items people would buy more things, therefore giving gms more of an incentive to make game better.[/quote]

[quote="TEMEROSO"]The idea of the VT group could of worked well, there was so much game experience inside the group. It really fell apart when really good ideas and bits just didn’t happen or got ignored. Unfortunately for the GMS they have zero ingame knowledge and when you can’t/don’t listen to a group of 3-5 people with 15+ cap chars between them, all giving ideas for the server it becomes very demoralising pretty quickly. I think we had 2 leave really early on and then the group settled. All from different guilds and worlds all agreeing on changes that really would of been amazing for the server. There was a few strange things that happen ingame that some didn’t agree on, there was a few bans handed out when there was a lot worse things going on in game and some couldn’t understand the reasoning why some where left to do as they pleased. There was no consistency in bans or suspensions. Finito really does a lot of behind the scene stuff and spent like 2 months solid daily trying to sort dcs and healing bugs, doesn’t have much support but was really open to great ideas and had so many amazing ideas for the sever as well, unfortunately I think time and keeping interested is finitos biggest problem. I think 3 of us left all around the same time after nothing really happened for a few months, there was no communication. Nothing being planned.... the hardest thing was is not trying to sound ungrateful to Dan, he would come on and get bombed with a few questions and query’s about adding stuff(as well as ingame pms ect). It was like oh Dans on quick let’s get a change because we might not see him for a few weeks, but in the same breath it’s like let’s not hassle him because he is a busy man irl and all we ever seem todo is ask for stuff... ( for the good of the server ofc). What did the VT group introduce? Mythical was a Vt idea A lot well being changes. Ie drops, quests ideas. I created all the devil hero skins and did everything with stats and what mobs drops what essences. Was a nice easy patch for Fin to introduce, dan done the quests behind the scenes obv. Anvil update. Server hunting quests. Tomes rewards Halloween town changes Chojine created 3 brand new looking weapons that we had working in game. Foxtrick finished off finitos CTF map and created a few more maps. Nite redone 200skill robe skin We had 100s of ideas that never happen. The group I suppose was created to link the people to the GMs but we couldn’t get it across at times sadly ....[/quote]

[quote="LUPISCUS"]More levels, slower xp = rested pots from donation store = £'s = more gm interest .. maybe Benjamins make the world go round. Surprised we haven't got more yet. [/quote]

[quote="MICKYC"]the vt group also built the wiki[/quote]

[quote="H4WKEYE"][quote="LUPISCUS"]More levels, slower xp = rested pots from donation store = £'s = more gm interest .. maybe Benjamins make the world go round. Surprised we haven't got more yet. [/quote] Maybe because the majority would prefer to see other in game/endgame content as dan has been trying to introduce lately with the new quests etc I'd guess you've still never bothered with nega, never seen you farming at mags All you do is ask for more levels, have you even tried dsoma yet? That is a whole soma world you've never tried A lot of people don't have that much spare time to invest in the game, slower rates etc would probably put more people off than bring them back[/quote]

[quote="LUPISCUS"]when it's endgame time.. make endgame material.. in the meantime i believe that the essence of playing this is to grow stronger, develop ur character and actually move forwards....this is the element of the game that provides the addiction and desire to play more.. if ppl don't have massive amounts of time it doesn't matter..the game lasts longer, it's not a race.. when the 1st 100 levels actually took some serious gametime to play.. ppl weren't moaning it was too slow.. some bought rested pots... some played lots... and others took their time... either way, the game was busy and enjoyed by most... if i want to play d-soma or farm mags, after doing 50-60k +.. or attend nega is up to me.. just giving an opinion[/quote]
