Thunder and lightning

[Petarda]

This was no attack nor was it anything similar to an attack besides the servers being offline.

We don't make up stories for the players to hear just to entertain them, what Gandalf has stated is what has happened and what is happening.

I never said that it was an attack.

Tought that you'll say something like "all data is lost, so there will be restart in rs5" whatever.

[BojanS]

Only a message for People that work on this great servers, Thank You, and Good Luck! See you neighbours in Liberty City.

[Pingster]

"[..] there will be restart in rs5"

I thought Teddy saying that keeping current stats would ruin RS5's economy and Gandalf - directly or indirectly - supporting such statements said that already.

[Andy.]

I find it shocking that people believe that the management just thought it would be just a fantastic idea to suddenly release RS5 full on. If you don't have the facts, don't speculate about what may or may not have happened.

Nobody claimed that the management thought it was a fantastic idea. Nobody is speculating anything. Funny how you just make stuff up spot on. People are just discussing if moving to RS5 straight away is the best option.

We've had server outages for a lot longer with a lot less of an explanation for a longer period of time. We always recover.

Have no worries.

As I said, I wouldnt know better than the scripters. I did not mean any disrespect.

Was not referring to you, rather the one who was believing the words about data loss from Gandalf were a lie.

[Julio.]

A script is never finished, those of you involved in development will already know that    Small changes are always going LIVE.

[Devin]

People should keep in mind that even RS4.1 was being touched up and fixed up until a few months ago from when it was released until now.

[Kostas]

Of course there are going to be bugs when the server is in beta.

Okay then the question is the following.
Is the Beta Stage over?If yes, then we're more than cool

[Huntsman]

Guys, you really are bunch of hypocrites. "OMG OMG I WANT RS5 FAST PLZ PLZ WAT DA FAK ARE DEVELOPER LAZY DO HA?"
*LE RS5 comes out*
"OMG OMG RS5 SUX STICK TO OLD SHITTY RS4 K K K BYE"

seriously, make up your freaking mind.

[DellStorm]

Hi guys and girls,

I would like you to look at it from my perspective and clarify a few areas which I feel are important.

RS 4.1 had flaws, it may have been what players were used to but it was by no means perfect - Anyone remember the 1000+ House problem?

RS 5 is the new way forward. Yes it is a new ship in that you will have different beds, yes it will mean giving up positions and the possibility of carnage whilst people figure out where things are on this ship.

What they do not realise though is how people will be affected by the new ship. It's got a better motor (Engine), It's been designed from the ground up with a scripting team that hasn't forgotten about what players needs are.

RS 4.1 was going out of control with regards to management of the economy. RS 4.1 was also going out of control with regards to player security.

RS 5 addresses these issues and are wholesomely better at fixing the issues before they arise.

Antonio, I totally understand your point of view - It sucks that you spent 5 years on creating a nice bed and now have to give up. Remember that everyone else is in the same picture here. The issues that you are facing we are all facing. But lets think about this for one second - If we do not move forward now - Argonath SAMP will not grow into a better one which it will be.

It is this reason why so much has been put onto making sure all *core* values are catered for before the release of RS5 and that in order to maintain this its vital the move happens now.

Let me take you all aside for a second and speak about a forest which was one of the biggest forests in America (those clever people can tell us which one it is!).

In the winter it was fine, in the summer it was very hot. So hot that on some occasions the trees would get that dry that fires would erupt at any moment. Unfortunately its fate was sealed in that because the forest was so large and had become so dry it burst into flames.

Now what people realise is - what is lost was only 25% of the forest. But the new growth that was allowed to be, was more magnificent - however that was only noticed later.

If you can - direct your attention towards RS5 as it is the future.
Look at the problems that we currently face and see for yourself what needs to be done.

Everyone can help out here, if there's a problem that you feel needs to be sorted when RS5 is online, talk to someone about it - that way we can iron out any issues before the 'gold' stage.

Stand strong together because its those who make a difference right here and now in times of loss that will make the biggest advantage for themselves when everything else is strong.

I hope this message, although long, informs you about the prospects of the ship. I hope you all understand that the amount of effort given to insuring players are cared for is noticed, and that we are not making this for profit. These are real people, dedicated real time to help you enjoy Argonath.

Thanks for caring.

<3 Dell.

[Squeez]

Thank you Dellstorm, but maybe you know. There wasnt any normal ansver to this - It will be like BETA or Fully(our things will stay on full RS5 or this will be full RS5)?

[DellStorm]

I can only answer that when the server is online.

[Squeez]

I can only answer that when the server is online.

And maybe you know how long this will take? days-week-Month?

[DellStorm]

I cannot answer that question for two reasons:

1) I am not in control of the entire server and do not know the progress of it.
2) I am not able to give a definitive date because if I do - people will take it as gospel.

[harward.]

hello dell will we get all property in rs5
