L2J Server

Btw: Merry Christmas

We changed that paradigm, after lot of discussions, we all sort of agree on staying on High Five for a longer time, and give L2J a stable/complete/refactored game server version that would make carrying out new versions a lot easier in the future.

is not better to take only the most important features from official and stay with the latest chronicle, and to have good stability to not crush and run good with out bugs then to take all and very few server use full features of retail since now retail is free whats the point of playing a l2j low rate anymore ?

ps if you will move to tauti I think more dev will be interested and you will have more help.

@Lupu1:
Good devs are almost never interested to help l2j development, and there are many reasons for that. L2J team is too strict and unhelpful to those who try (and I mean simply try like a normal person, not lick everyones ass). There are only a few ways you can possibly get into the dev team:
1) you can either be a programming genius and contribute some awesome stuff (although even that is not guaranteed to work),
2) you can be a good programmer and friends with some of the current members,
3) you can literally lick their ass (but this also requires at least some programming capability).

Might be a few more but who cares anyway. Obviously, all of them require you to have motivation to join the team and to get up close and personal. This team doesn't take in people just for their skill (arguably a minus), unlike other open-source projects, which obviously has effect on progress.

And it's probably not worth mentioning, but I'll say it anyway - there are no devs that are interested in simply helping any project's progress from the side long term without getting into the team. They will simply get bored and leave. If the l2j team wants to pick up the pace, it needs either more team members or to pick up the pace of the current ones, but that's obviously not going to happen with the current team.

P.S. I'm not interested in arguing about this, don't bother replying.

Another way to join L2j is to buy all the devs a BEER

Actually, most of the base code of the old L2J server was done by drunk devs.

I guess that's why there are so many bugs and it's being refactored now.
