I have read many many posts here, and have refrained from commenting, however, the game is already coded. Just as they nerfed things coding, they can un-nerf, recode, etc in the same way. It is done often and not just with a game like UWO.
From reading all the FAQ's and comments I can unequivocally say that this decision is being made without good knowledge/background of the game.
It is not your usual MMO, this is a VERY complex game that takes years to master.
Can the game be improved? Absolutely, with proper study, planning, testing, and input.
One thing you left out that could help improve the game, Walker: "Respect for the existing players who supported the game all these years." Whatever we may think of OGPlanet, when they took over UWO hosting duties, they actually treated us better than Papaya Play currently has (and given OGP's reputation right now, that is really saying something).
Not only with the server being kept intact, but GMs like Rukaede were there to talk to us right at the start, and they did listen to us, like changing useless temporary disguise tool rewards from in-game quiz events to something better, for example. The relationship between host and player is a delicate one, and if not handled well, causes no end of grief and suffering for both parties... as we're already seeing.
I do not claim to know/understand their actual decision to the reset of the game. That being said, they are reading the comments and they are concerned. What they will do about it is not known to me. But I can tell you it is unfair to say they do not care about the players, they do care.
At the moment, they have a lot on their hands and they are trying to organize the launch. They have been very respectful to me thus far and have listened to many who speak to them directly.
Notwithstanding the reset, I say give it time for them to digest everything here and be respectful. Voicing concerns is the right way to do it, but cussing and shaming gets you nowhere.
The trouble is, most of us have not seen that kind of care or contact extended to us. I agree cussing and shaming isn't the way to go; better to address the matter in a civil manner. When people are hurt and upset, they can sometimes get very emotional; hopefully Papaya/Vert will keep that in mind and not dismiss or ignore the concerns voiced in those instances.
You know seems like Frozen has a lot of insight into what they doing with UWO. Maybe she has inside info we don't know and every time some one makes a statement she gets on that person and say they are cry babies. As far as I know there is such a thing as freedom of speech or is that not allowed where this forum is concerned
If she/he works for or has anything to do with the company I will quit.
No one with an ounce of professionalism would speak to people the way she/he has spoken to some on here.
Can you imagine phoning your gas supplier or another services company that has taken your money, and as you register your complaint or ask a question they then call you a cry baby?
He s got nothing to do with the company or so ever.Every time someone ask this he s avoiding to answer.He doesn t say yes or not because he wants us to belive that he s someone in this forum os this game.
But he s nothing more than a young boy or girl who wants some atention and maybe dreaming to become an admin some day and that s why he s kissing Papaya s back all the time.
If Papaya whould hire someone like FrozenRuby as an admin than it whould be the second big mistake they made with this game after the reset.
@Walker, You are correct. The game is already coded and there is no reason to wipe. That BS that frozen keeps throwing out there is just a smokescreen. I have done some game coding when creating mods for other games. Making an error such as putting in an "o" instead of a "p" does NOT corrupt the game data. Usually it just causes whatever you had planned to not work. All you do is look at the code you just wrote and fix it. MMOs are tweaking code all the time. Sometimes it creates bugs. The devs then look at the code and fix their mistakes. If this game is wiped, it is either because OGP really did wipe the data, ( maybe with Papaya consent), or Papaya wants to remove everything so they can make more money from a CS right from the beginning. This is a pretty big gamble because some veteran players such as myself are no longer going to spend money on the game if we play at all.
yep i'm just a big troll who doesn't even play this game your right and yes i do avoid answering the question because its rather redundant you believe whatever you want that is your opinion it doesn't make it truth and yes if i did play this game i wouldn't give my IGN so easily
right faffnir was a company director right so if thats true no one in said company ever seen me login on faffnirs account or heard my voice seen my face so how can they confirm i am really faffnir
You can neither prove nor deny that statement? Wow! What a ridiculous post. If you said you were one of my toons, I could certainly deny it. I could not prove it because I have no files or pictures that prove what toons I had.. If you claimed to be the real me, I could certainly deny that, and I could also prove you are not. Your posts are getting more and more foolish. Do yourself a favor and stop posting or at least think a lot more before posting.
But yet she can say and talk about everyone posting and say they are spamming the forum. If the forum is not here to post on then why not just close it down so no one can chat on it
hypothetically i could be anyone's toons from OGP, i can claim to be someone famous to being someone no one knows. straight point its foolish to ask for a players IGN without first knowing if that player really is that toon's owner.
anyone can claim to be someone they are not.
but forget this topic how about we all try to calm down i do love all the dislikes i get kinda a good bench mark for where i stand, just means i'm either bugging you because i am right or because you can't accept that pov.
how about we wait and see what papaya has to say on the matter officially before letting emotions run rampant further on the forums over mere speculations and hearsay.
Notice how you write you are getting dislikes? Other players' POSTS get dislikes. I have disliked some posts by InfamousKilla, but I certainly do not dislike Infamous.
lol my dislike comment was for my lovely benchmark , i am at a lovely 316 dislikes i think thats quite the achievement of being blunt and brutal with no sympathy
He has after done something for me, and that was giving me a reason to come back, i was originally intending to leave for good, since even putting aside the real money i did spend, my time will not come back, the effort i put forth from since open beta will never come back, and the things i achieved with my friends many of whom aren't around anymore are gone to dust, that's more than enough to quit.
But you see, seeing him overjoyed has given me something i was lacking, i can't redirect my anger towards papaya they only intent to exploit players from the same money that OGP had already gotten, and they have shown they do not care anyway, but you my Frozen friend are within reach.
I really hope you really enjoy the grieving because i hereby declare war, you will be sunk on sight, again and again and again. until you leave the game or the unlikely case i can let go of my anger...

Never saw him/her in world chat....thank goodness.
All he/she tries to do is goad people into and argument or belittle them in some we.
Just ignore and hopefully we won’t have to see or hear from them in game.
Naffnir (frozen ruby) wanted the wipe from the beginning, so I feel that she enjoys the misery of others more than the game itself.
And her comments since the wipe confirm that to me.
No need to respond to me naffnir, I won’t be communicating with you any longer.
