I don't know that I'd want my server translated to mean "cowherd", but whatever floats your boat.

Both names translate to "cowherd". Sanskrit go means "cow"; pāla and vinda form tatpurusha compounds, literally translating to "protector of cows" and "finder of cows", respectively. It is cognate with Slavic gowendo "cowherd".


Come on. Everyone knows that "Goat Grip" is the best name for the new server. Of course, I would vote for 1 or 2 others.

I could care less what it's called. I don't play and haven't played for months, but we all also know the server merge will go so wrong the game won't recover. GF/RW/Froggy has never been able to pull off something of this scale without major issues.



Then, In the words of Chris D'Elia .... Whad'ya doin?

If you don't play then you shouldn't get a vote regardless. Obviously none of this matters because its not up for a vote anyway but the point still stands. If you already stopped playing and are so sure that the merge is going to kill the game anyway.. why not get a head start and stop posting all together and just leave it behind you?

This forum has enough negative people that still play, we don't need former players that just wanna defecate all over everything.. We can defecate on our game fine thanks.

Stop me if I'm making too much sense for you.











I still come here to see all the fanboi's that think the game is doing just fine, then in the next breath complain about the lack of players. It makes for great comedy.

Zidlef aside, I think most people are pretty realistic when it comes to the state of the game. We know what it is, sorry for hoping that the game we have loved for so long gets better somehow and doesn't completely die. You clearly don't belong here anymore so why even bother..

Maybe you should get a hobby

People can be realistic about the game and still have fun in the game. The reason people are on your case is because without saying literally that you hope the merges fail, you are indeed saying that you hope they fail. I, on the other hand, hope they are a decent success. I don't know if that will be the case, but I'm with Cike on thinking that the sooner the better. Maybe they fail and bring a quicker end to the game and maybe they succeed well enough to extend the life of the game.

Eh, don't bother. Plenty of people have told him to go away, him and his negativity and he just doesn't listen. The funny part is he's alone in all of his opinions even though he thinks he has the entire forum backing. Unlike everyone else who suspects Gameforge to fail, he WANTS them to fail. There's quite a difference. Sure, there are some fanboys here, but this game still has plenty of life left, plenty of people who play who just like the game, not are kissing butt of Gameforge.

That's why I just ignore him, I suggest you do too. With no attention to feed off of, the negativity trolls will just crawl into their hole and die.

This is exactly why I keep coming around. I can't wait to bust my gut laughing when the game dies. People know this game has no life left, but they refuse to admit it. It's going to be great when the servers close.

+100000 to Mongo, couldn't have said it better. All those people that say : i don't care i don't play the game anymore, i come here to QQ because i can't play other games anyway, but my opinion should matter LMAO.

Mongo ;-) i am just looking on the bright side of life in general, i am realistic but as you said, enough people are negative so you need people that are overly optimistic ;-)

And that special person in need of attention, why don't a GM just ban his IP from the forums and the game and get it over with, delete his accounts and bye bye, instead of just telling him to go away, he admitted not playing the game and hoping they fail. Get rid of him once and for all, why keep that person here?? His opinion is of no importance to anyone at all, tyvm

Inherently ever game will die. Everyone dies. Almost nothing lasts forever..... (the question is only when, not if)

So what you are saying is that you keep coming back, wasting more of your time, in hopes to see the game is dead. However, up to this point you are continuously proved wrong... and you keep coming back?

What is it called when you keep doing the same thing over and over again and expect different results?

Really if that is the only reason you continuously, regularly keep coming back... Wow man you gotta get some type of life. I mean what is this like your 20th return to the forums to find the game still running? All in hopes that one day you might get to be right, for once? It will still make your success rate like 3 %. I mean if I were you, I wouldn't hold my breath till the servers close... well maybe....

I mean if you are THAT driven to keep coming back and checking, and KEEP posting... man that is the sign of someone that is truly obsessed, butthurt, or just plain affected. It is really kind of sad. At least give it a year between coming back..... you might pop a blood vessel if you keep getting proved wrong.

Edit to add: I mean really, though. Asheron's call has been up and running 14 YEARS! People like you said it was dead, 9 years ago, yet it is still around. They just went F2P and STILL around, with no sign it is going to shut down soon. They have 7 or so servers running also and the population isn't that high. Using this as an example, you may have a long wait ahead. In fact server merges usually means the game will need less money to run, which would extend the life of a game. As seen by other games. Just cause YOU have a problem with the game and YOU want to see it shut down, doesn't mean it will.

It will when the merges happen, because you know, GF has a great track record of doing things correctly. It's going to be funny, it really will.

I must be doing something right, if as you said, you chose to ignore me but you just couldn't resist commenting on my post.

you all make it oh-so entertaining for ziav....heck, I am enjoying reading this thread.

@zid: simply put, every1 is still around because they are waiting for the game to improve. also, how is telling current players to quit any different than telling new players the truth about the game(its not doing well, and they may want to look to other games for reasonably priced endgame)? I'm really curious by this, as you can't possibly be hypocritical with that statement...

that being said, if we started banning people because the population doesn't like them, I can think of other people that would be ahead of ziav...including people who had this genius and USSR-esque idea in the first place.


if you want him to leave, ignore him, its really that simple...has every1 forgotten the forum slogan "don't feed the trolls"? ya'll are throwing him a banquet...

anywho, ziav actually ends up alluding to some valid points in his posts...

have fun, peace out,
