I agree about the guild system, far too many guilds, far too many guilds from beta times that no longer exist. Too many guilds with 300 memebers that have 30 active members.

The "guilds on server" menu tab is almost useless for finding a guild.


People should look at the older MMO Rohan: Blood Feud. Best guild requirement system and best online shop system ever. You were actually allowed to sell your characters in the online shop for gaming gold. You could also sell items and even gold.

Old players didn't leave because of a monthly fee, the left because they ran out of things to do or went crazy from RNG.


I think it's a combination of the two. I pre-ordered the game but didn't even finish out the 30-day sub. I liked the game, especially the combat system. Graphics were wonderful and I never experienced lag. One of the main reasons I was disappointed was the guild system. It is just far too easy to create a guild. Within the first week on my server alone, there were thousands of guilds and most of them had two members. Tera is not the only MMO guilty of this but I think it ruins the social aspect of the game. Too many chiefs and not enough Indians.

I feel that creating a guild should be a real accomplishment. Perhaps then there would be more players wishing to join one than create one. I can afford the sub. I sub two Eve Online accounts and I've pledged $125 to a game not to be made for another two years. I just didn't feel at the time that Tera was worth the $15/mth. I don't think the subscription model will work in a game today unless it's an exceptional game or the sub is very low.

I came back here now only because I could swear the page said it was F2P, but after downloading the 35GB game, it doesn't seem to be. Does this Discovery Edition require you to create a new account? If so, definitely not worth it.

This forum does have PM feature...

What you do is click on someone's username and then click on message.

Ah! What a nice Easter egg. Thanks!
No, I won't be playing any longer.

I noticed this forum has no PM feature (my bad) so contact me at http://tsw.mine.nu as user Soulhunter.
If anyone would like to have a guild, I'm giving mine away. There aren't many people in it and those who are don't seem to be very active. PM me for details.

The guild's name is Iron Dragon. A forum is already set up that you may use until you find another.

I saw your meta tag but it isn't common with most websites, and I'm out of High School and plan on majoring in Web Development :3
Yes, it's not common enough, apparently, but wouldn't you agree that it is very possible? It should be done if it's a page that isn't expected to be frequently changed. No, you wouldn't want to do it on every page, because that kinda defeats the purpose of caching, but on important pages that shouldn't change often, it is critical.

I'm tired of this discussion.

Or you know... you could check the news every few days, I think they updated it over a day ago that they were opening it up 4 hours early.

As I said, I see no reason to have to check a website every single day to see if there has been a major scheduling change. I have things to do that don't concern Tera. They should have sent me an email notice for something like this. This is what I'm paying them for. It's called "service".

I've been coding website since the 8th grade and I've never heard of a site owner having an auto refresh to their site to refresh whenever an update was made. If you can't be bothered to his F5, Ctrl+R or the refresh button for your browser then you sir are the one to blame. Anyways, people were storming the servers anyways so there were Gateway issues, you'd still be sitting here complaining about 502 Bad Gateway errors.
Are you in 9th Grade now? Check above.
Yes, this is really hard to do:

You could prevent cache of the index page by putting the following into a placeholder named "head":

"meta http-equiv="pragma" content="no-cache"


This will force everyone to download the index page each time they visit the page.

Funny that it says 8AM for everyone but you.

Is your computer from Gateway?
No, and I'd bet it is far better than yours. No, it's bad website programming. Pages should force browsers to refresh data that has changed.


Here is the answer folks.

"No I did not refresh, it should be automatic"
Shows you know nothing about writing websites.
