    Alright, I guess it's time to clarify everything with all the deserved transparency.

     

     

    I am going to say everything that Wilson did for us regarding these latest updates.

    I had to scroll up all the way up of my conversation with him to make sure of the exactitude of everything I'll be saying, so I sincerely hope it's the last time I get to hear about "Wilson's incredible and mysterious contribution to ultima for all these updates".

     

     

    On February of this year, Wilson messaged me in order to build a list of ideas that he would be sending to Larva afterwards.

    After the brainstorm, we came up with a list that included 9 different suggestions, among which "Increase bank meseta limit", "Balance E2 hit rate", "Patch slow Gibbles", "Nerfing happy hours" and a couple others.

     

     

    Now let's get into the two Ultima changes that Wilson pretends to deserve credits for.

     

     

    << Y’all are welcome :) >>

     

    Wilson mentionned the yellowboze hit rate% in our DM on February 3rd of 2023.

    And I told him I already suggested that on August 17 of 2021...

    @Smoochum can testify because we were talking a lot about it at that time.

    So was it his idea? No.

    Did he implement it? No. I edited everything that needed to be changed in the server file, and Soly uploaded it.

    Wilson only repeated to Larva what was already said. But shortened in 4 words. ("Balance E2 hit rate")

     

     

     

     

    Wilson mentionned one meseta change in our DM on February 3rd of 2023.

    And I told him I already made a huge post about it in the staff section on February, 1st of 2023...

    In this post I mentionned how even @Protoss asked about it before me.

    After that @Fyrewolf5 suggested to make a new quest, and that was the story plot I followed when I made the quest:

     

     

    SO, does Wilson deserve credits for it?

    First let's remind that the "Meseta major update" is a combination of 4 different updates.

     

     

    1) Starting meseta in banks

    - Was it Wilson idea? No.

    - Did Wilson implement it? No.

    - Did Wilson help with that update in any mean? No.

     

    2) Boosting all meseta drops

    - Wilson's idea? No.

    - Wilson implemented? No.

    - Wilson helped? No.

     

    3) New quest to farm meseta on any difficulty

    - Wilson's idea? No.

    - Wilson made the quest? No.

    - Wilson helped? No.

     

    4) Bank capacity

    - Wilson's idea? No.

    - Wilson implemented? No.

    - Wilson helped? Yes, by sending a message to Larva. Thank you for your services.

     

    Not only has he done basically nothing, but also proceeded to shit on the person who actually worked most for that update.

     

     

    << Again you’re welcome. I won’t force things (1) like this (2) to happen again so I wouldn’t use these as signs of consistent improvements (3). >>

    Here's a dictionary to understand what's going on.

    Force things = Send one message to Larva.

    Like this = Like the countless ideas that got posted in Improve the server topic, which just deserve as much credits.

    I wouldn’t use these as signs of consistent improvements = For all the upcoming changes if any, consider it's not actual improvement because Wilson already called dibs on them.

     

     

    By the way Wilson, Ultima Bringer's fix was one of the 9 points adressed in your list.

    So... On the day Soly fixes Ultima Bringer, would you like us to erect a golden statue in your image to express our gratitude?

    It would be unfortunate if we forget to thank you in due and proper form for it.

     

     

    TL;DR

    Wilson in a nutshell:

    - Hey ya'll should make Ultima better.

    *Staff implements server improvements...*

    - IM DA BEST, YALL SHOULD THANK ME

    Probably cause I’m one of the few people here that pay attention to PSO as a whole rather than only the literal tiny bubble that Ultima is. 

     

    Most players here have sub 1000 hours on this game and literally 0 hours on a server that is clearly doing things right. 
     

    You probably have no idea that I recently attempted to lead a community driven overhaul plan because I am one of the few people larva will reply to via personal messages. That plan included ideas that main “pillars” of the community and ALL GMs thought were valid. Of course it was stomped out at the top, but most folks here don’t even know what they don’t know on a list like that because they’re only privy to Ultima which at this point is nearing 7 years behind the times. 

     

    Did your plan give an alternate way to monetize.  Not many would give up a couple thousand per year extra side hustle.  Family, kids and bills > everything.

    Just to be clear it doesn’t have to be that life cycle. There’s a pso server that has like 200 concurrent players off event and 300+ during. If you’re wondering where everyone went :)

    Those numbers are down now also. 200/300 was a few years ago. Now it’s more like 70/170. 38 online there as I type this.

    Does anyone know what the other servers do that is more attractive?

    It sounds like Ephinea is the most popular server, so why?

    Someone from Ephinea dropped by the other day just to try out Ultima, and when they saw how few people were logged in compared to Eph, they said "this sucks" and left.

    How does above server attract so many people?

    Do you need to mitigate DMC problems a lot more? 

    In the post just above the admin listed several things but check this link for a full run down.

    Think of it as a custom vanilla experience with modern quality of life features.
