I think im not the only one who wants an answer to this question hence the only reason im posting this, i know staff don't want to give too much away but i think people deserve to know that they're not investing they're time in something that won't be there in a few months.. thats all.

Read JLH's and Simon's posts. JLH will not support another server. Simon feels that we need to start from scratch. JLH and Simon have both stated the main server is here to stay. Which leaves. . .
See ya when the new 1alt comes out.

You have just sent a nudge.
Curran says:
orry
Curran says:
wrong button lol
jonathan_lh@hotmail.com says:
hm?
Curran says:
might i ask what 1a2 game staff are?
jonathan_lh@hotmail.com has chosen not to receive Voice Clips.
jonathan_lh@hotmail.com says:
nope
Curran says:
so everyone on 1a now is going to lose everything
jonathan_lh@hotmail.com says:
why
Curran says:
were all wondering wether we should quit
Curran says:
well
Curran says:
if we lose everything we have worked hard
Curran says:
for
jonathan_lh@hotmail.com says:
who said you will
Curran says:
no one
Curran says:
but will we?
jonathan_lh@hotmail.com says:
then stop assuming
jonathan_lh@hotmail.com says:
it is unlikely, however no decision has been reached, and it will take months for the game to be ready
Curran says:
why cant they just balance the one alt serverwe allready have?
jonathan_lh@hotmail.com says:
because if people have levelled highly due to an unfair advantage, we can't do anything abuot it
Curran says:
u mean theifs?
jonathan_lh@hotmail.com says:
no idea, i don't play
Curran says:
then how can u say that?
jonathan_lh@hotmail.com says:
because it's true
jonathan_lh@hotmail.com says:
you just implied the server isn't balanced
jonathan_lh@hotmail.com has chosen not to receive Voice Clips.
jonathan_lh@hotmail.com says:
therefore people may have taken advantage of that
Curran says:
but surly u could let someone rework it a little
jonathan_lh@hotmail.com says:
apparently it's not possible
jonathan_lh@hotmail.com says:
and wouldn't get around the fact that people have benefited from it
Curran says:
no
Curran says:
any game john
Curran says:
people find ways to make it easy for themselfs
Curran says:
you and i both know this
jonathan_lh@hotmail.com says:
i do not look after the stuff in game
jonathan_lh@hotmail.com says:
i have a staff team to do it
jonathan_lh@hotmail.com says:
so i have literally no idea on balance, never have, simon has always done it
Curran says:
im sure if u asked some of the old staff they would rework 1a
jonathan_lh@hotmail.com says:
i just write the code for what i'm told to make
You have just sent a nudge.
Curran says:
sorry
Curran says:
keep doing that lol
Curran says:
<-- divvy
Curran says:
so when 1a2 comes out will we most likly be conpensated for are hard work on the other 1a server?
jonathan_lh@hotmail.com says:
i am not sure what simon has planned for it
jonathan_lh@hotmail.com says:
he's heading up the development of 1a2
Curran says:
ok
Curran says:
would it be possible to find out and email me?
jonathan_lh@hotmail.com says:
you can ask simon on the forum
jonathan_lh@hotmail.com says:
i am not involved with 1a2 development
Curran says:
but its your game john
jonathan_lh@hotmail.com says:
no
jonathan_lh@hotmail.com says:
i write the code to make it work, i do not run it
jonathan_lh@hotmail.com says:
the staff decide what happens inside it
Not one word of this has been edited it dosent answer many questions tho just thought u may like to see it
I never went to asia this year i fly by and gave them a big wave.

compensated? like someone owes you for your time, so naive. You play a free game, that's easy in concept, that's available 24/7 with little to no updates, that has a staff team that volunteers time and effort to make some parts interesting, and you want to be "paid" as well? Your compensation will be a new and possibly improved server, with classes being slightly more balanced and hopefully a storyline that evolves as the playerbase does.

I think it's more that a decision hasn't been made than that we're not 'giving it away', or I'm just not well informed on it either.
I'd kind of like to know myself and I'd be all for telling the 1a community when I hear something I believe will actually be a definite.
So yes, I guess I'm saying I support your question

Would be nice to have an answer as to what is going to happen to the stuff we have. I myself find it pointless to train on one alt at the time being since i have no idea whether im going to lose it or not.
True, I'm lucky that my stuff is on the main server mostly. So when the time comes I can print it out and keep it in my pocket. No? Have John send me my crits through the mail then? Not either? Well you lost me then.
Edit: Still support this request btw for all the haters out there.

IF it happens 1a will more then likely be deleted. The question you should be asking is "Are you 100% sure your going to have 1a2 ever up and running?". Also, I probably wouldn't stop playing because what would probably happen then is, you will stop playing so you don't "waste" your time, but then 1a2 for some reason will never exist and then you would of "wasted" your time not playing the current 1a but instead waiting for 1a2.
If you think you are wasting your time by playing 1a right now. Then you are wasting your time playing Nightmist in general. I wouldn't hold my breath.

or just ditch 1-alt and work on main more 1-alt was tried and its failed unless u have a theif u pretty much not going any where
Lol... There are plenty successful races on 1a. Ranger/Druid/Mage etc. Just because thieves is the easy road doesn't mean its the only road.

nightmist wasnt and isnt ment to be 1-alt u should have the choice to go kill boss's on a party if u wish to 1-alt was just a pathetic attempt to try and get more people playin and yeah maybe a few older players did come back to play 1-alt but the player base on both servers suffers badly if Jlh/Pandilex had just put the time and effort into main then new people would come and play and older players would have come back just as easy.
Now all i can say is that of main keeps going the was it has over the last year or so they might as well just close the server whilst there are 2 servers both servers will suffer dramticly i say either one server or the other
If NightMist was ment to be a 1-alt game then why didnt JLH/Pandilex make it like that when they put the server up back in 2000
if people dont like my opinions then its tuff luck its my opinion

There are many other games out there if you will search for MUD sites. You know, those silly things we maybe have gone to, to vote for our favorite game. I suggest if you want to find a similar game to play, you start there. I will not endorse a certain game on the thread, but if you IM me, I can suggest a few.
Or play main, where everything is buttercups and butterflies.

Also, that's giving the HUGE, MASSIVE, MONUMENTAL, benefit of of assuming this new game is completed.
Anyway, I hope they do manage to complete it, and that it is far more developed and excellent than the original versions of Nightmist. That is what would be best for the game, and it could pull the whole playerbase back into a single game and suduce new players.

I think you've hit the nail on the head with that one Gaddy exactly. It's not about how good or bad one server is now, it's about making a new one that's better, that can bring Nightmist back to the kind of activity it used to see.
I'd still like to see an answer to the question asked in this thread too though, for all my effort on 1a. Not that I think it would stop me pushing to achieve the goals I've got my mind set on before the server would shut!

Although we tend to agree to disagree most of the time, once in a while we both think along the same line. It is scarey.....assuming this new game is completed.
-Gaddy
And to all of you players who say you will not play if the game is not going to be around, then you are not a true Nightmistian.
In my opinion, you are the ones who run and hide when any type of adversity are thrown in your direction.
BTW, have you all noticed Pandilex has been absent from the forums for a while now? Is he off chasing the preverbial "butterfly", or is he hard at work on the new server? I noticed Angelus has had ample time to post on the forums recently since he was "promoted". You can make your own conclusions about that last thought yourself.

And you sir suck, since we are throwing opinions out there.1-alt sucks......
If NightMist was ment to be a 1-alt game then why didnt JLH/Pandilex make it like that when they put the server up back in 2000
And as a matter of fact, NM was originaly intended to be a one character game, you can do a bit of searching on the old forum and the begining of this one too if you care to take a break from sucking so badly.
if people dont like my opinions then its tuff luck its my opinion
