Hello,
At first it is worth to mention that trash loot was disabled temporary until we can find some solution to don't make Kalin not worth to run after a few days. It means loot will be more likely restored in same or similar way soon. Comparing it to some other "sad servers" where instances were disabled for months sounds quite fair.
I want to dement gossips about giving some information for certain guilds. We do not do that. If we find out someone is giving some information to others, we clarify and confirm it and it is usually not the case anymore. We have a serious approach regarding sharing not expected changes. Moreover, most of changes are discussed in real time making it impossible to spread it a few days before.
We receive many suggestions, but quite part of them doesn't contain actual arguments or solution ideas, making it post noted since we are not able to handle everything at once. Some are also delayed as we are not sure if something is technically possible and do not want to make a hope if it would appear to be impossible.
It is worth to mention that if someone asks if something is designed to be easier accessible than it should and receiving a few answers that it is not, continuing to use it like that, is clearly overusing. But lack of public statements makes it not possible to result in any kind of punishments. However sometimes it happens that by misunderstanding or lack of good details exchange, it may end different. Our will is not to punish anyone just because they are better or weaker. Intention is to make equal chances to everyone.
Actually such kind of conversations move our focus on reading and handling them instead making an actual work, which connected already with recent DDOS-related issues and its results in today's ping issues, delays everything. We also own private life and instead focusing on actual changes, improvements, fixes and new content we are distracted by long discussions.
We started to grow our team in order to provide more content in shorter time, but it is clear that some team members need to learn technical and balance aspects. Short and pithy suggestions are more valuable than bunch of text that doesn't help them a lot. It is worth to remember that if something is accessible too quickly, making new content makes no sense if it takes a few times longer to prepare. Moreover, for players with limited amount of time there are almost always ways to trade with players who have got more time. That gives them all equal chances to obtain certain element with considering their real life possibilities.
All of us are fans of this game. Let it become better by cooperation instead fighting each other. Our will is that it will live as long as possible, it requires far thinking and good mood between community and team. We have a lot of further ideas and want to introduce many of your suggestions when it is time possible. Please give us possibility to improve and solve issues. Enjoy game and have fun!
Greetings
