I gotta disagree with you, normally you hit the nail on the head with most things.
If nobody ever did anything for the first time then 99% of the things we use, visit and can’t live without wouldn’t exist. I would say I’m a relatively trusted member of staff but back in the day I used to release servers that were shocking, I was openly corrupt on those servers towards my friends and berated anyone who complained about my server. However if I opened a server now (which I quite like the idea of) the majority of people would back me and not judge me on past performance. The point I’m making is if people can get behind me then they should also be able to throw themselves behind someone unproven, remember it’s innocent until proven guilty.
I think you should give this guy a break and a chance, at the end of the day the worst that can happen is that the server fails, many many many servers have failed before, it happens just chill.
And actually, maybe this itterence of Edens is better not being solely run by Ice as maybe it will help prevent and avoid past failings such as it being unreliable and the accusations of corruption.
I’ll give it a go Storm, thanks for bringing the server back up.
But that's you and your attempts at server's, All Storm has done here is test, no coding, no stats, nothing server side, no drops. It's been this way for awhile since Eden started dying out last time like Icey just lost his voice and lets Storm relay all the information. The last 3 Eden have been through Iceys account i just find it strange and off putting that Icey hasn't taken the time to do it himself and putting server files that are well coded into the hand's of somebody who's never ran a server.
Just my opinion though, it's nothing about Storm personally, i played Mir Revenge with him and hes a great dude it's just a very strange move by Icey and pete to have somebody who has no attachment to the server apart from player / tester to be posting and running the thread.
Just read a little more, if it is just a Management roll Storm is playing then i hope he does it well as he bites very easy to stuff. I thought Icey interaction with players was fantastic don't really get all this.
One last point towards the " cash cow " although you say " it's all in GS for GG " last Eden a 75% exp potion for 24 hours was 8,500,000 ( maybe 10 hours of solid farming if ur kit wasn't amazing ) or buy it for 5£.. Then people like Moha ( Not having a dig ) just sell's them for 5 million gold and boom the eco of the server was smashed to by straight away, they need revising because in reality it was very cash cow, just because you present people a price to purchase them doesn't mean the price is even close to viable.
