maybe coz we do care a bit about a digital place where we spend HOURS and HOURS of our time on and we would like to see it grow rather than fall into ruin ... at least some of us do."
And there is where the poblem lies! Players both past and present have care'd about the server while the admin/owner lets it run on autopiolit and doesnt give a crap about it.You guy's are fighting a lost cause,because nothing will get fixed or get better! Its on autopiolit and has been for a long while now . Why Sterling stays and try's and take's the abuse she has taken and so much grief and verbal abuse for the admin is beyond me.

Well I guess Ignis has read it, but he maybe didn't post because he didn't know what to say I guess is kind of demotivating when you work for something for so long and there're always problems and bugs everywhere that require days, weeks, or even months to just see what is the main reason of the bug itself...
We're not a big company with countless of programmers and we can't fix the bugs that easily.
On the other side I'm really sorry about this situation, I think Ignis should be more responsive to the players, we are sorry about Antharas and we will be working on the script to see if there's anything wrong.
As I said before I apologize from myself, I know I could've posted before but I haven't been reading the forum lately.
Thanks alot as always sekai and sterling. Please do help us check from ignis if we would be compensated for our waste of effort too if you would....well....if he cant then there's no helping it then.
I love the movement on the forum and ingame. Thank you guys .. it was needed!
and I agree with kuku .. pls let us know what u decided to do.
thnx in advance

Totally agree with sekai, the only thing I want to add is to apologize to all players because of my absence.
Today it took me nearly two hours to fix the bug that crashed the mail server every now and then. In the same time Sekai answered a lot of forum posts and found some more bugs to fix. That's why I feel stressed, and sometimes demotivated.
On the other hand I have been passing thought many personal problems lately. So I again apologize for not being as active as I were in my best peaks.
About the drop, we can't give you the items or the anthy at 8% because it wouldn't be fair to those who had the same problems some months ago with Anthy. Personally I'm very sorry to say this, because I've been a player and I know how dificult is to be 20 guys from the same guild online for 3-4 hours of raiding.
But we will work the hardest to bring you Antharas without a single bug!
@ Ignis: Good to see u back ... i hope u solved / can solve your personal problems soon and can get back to us without frustration.
Look, the way I see what happened is similar to what happened to my wolf on the last anthy raid. The anthy wasnt At the wall, but, knowing its dimensions, its head may be often in wall texture. Since it is a whole mob instance itself, once the head gets stuck, it might get ported out. I summoned a wolf there, cuz I needed to take Soulshots from his inventory, and my pet disappeared. It was summoned, but somehwere far away (my guess is the zero-config coordinates, where every l2 instance of mobs or players end up, if something is not defined in L2 script.(and that is somewhere on the neutral waterways zone, between primeval isle and dark elf coast line)). At least, back when i was a GM, the bugged entities and players often ended up there. Even if Anthy was ported there, if any1 would touch it, players would be ported to giran, and anthy itself, back to cave.
I thank Ignis, Sterling and Sekai for at least reading this. But really, this is just utilising instance space, because, if boss was bugged, it would not hit back (thats why terms "glitching, hacking, or bugging him do not apply here). Well, like i said, he probably got too far in wall texture, while chasing a player. Since his targetting is somewhat sketchy, he tries to hit anyone that has hit him, thus making him disappear..
P.S.
The written above, however, does not solve the issue of anthy stopping the attacks.
P.P.S.
And getting at least one or two new gms would still improve the situation. Dont give them rights, but make them appear ingame! PR does wonders.. :)
well.....yea....i think some mth ago it was us who did anthy too thou.....thats why we are so fustrasted over it as we thought it was fixed.....but oh well....pls tell us once u think its ok again....once again thank you sekai and sterling for being ard when ignis aint ard.....i hope u are doing well ignis and would make our server some nice improvement too~
