Behind the qRO Scenes... (Not Looking Good)

[Yoon]

It seems that things aren't bright and cheery with the qRO staff, as seen in this thread from constipatedkiller on the official qRO forums:

Good ****ing job Rave. You just fired the only hope qRO had. Now your piece of **** server run by half assed idiots has no chance. Nicely done.

For those of you who don't know, Rave, the dumbass moron, fired Lauren for doing her job. Basically she was trying to clean up LR so it wasnt such a ****hole. And he then banned her from IRC and kicked her off the GM team for "trying to take over LR". Well someone's gotta do it you lazy ****. I don't see you doing anything. You even hire your dumbass friend Centre as a GM even though no-one knows who the **** he is. You're an idiot who takes his hard working GM's foregranted. You wonder why qRO is dying? Maybe cause you're a lazy **** who doesn't do anything to help the server. You just like the power. And when someone like Lauren, who tries to FIX the mess that this server is, you get scared that you're losing power, so you fire her. Nice ****ing move moron. She was the most active Admin over the entire network of qRO. Forums, IRC, HR, and it would've been LR. But no, you, being a power hungry insecure moron, had to fire her. Well all I can say is, you've just doomed qRO. You got rid of the only admin who gives a ****. Good ****ing job.

Oh, and before I go. Here's some ;ittle bits of information
Tei was abusing the party bug and was even encouraged by Gona, who even offered to HELP abuse it.
Rave de-opped Odaroo, kicked him from all the channels, and started yelling at him for changing to topics of the qRO IRC channel. Odaroo changed the topic to add the card rates.
Rave is Tei's little lapdog who does every little thing he asks. "Rave, make it double exp" "ok"
The only active GM's on LR are Mitsukai, Odaroo, and Poporing. The rest just sit there doing nothing and reaping all the benefits.
HR might be shut down.
Rave's a dumbass idiot who doesnt even know the rates of the server. He thinks that the card drop rates are 3. Do @whodrop ghostring_card and tell me what it says. 0.02%. That means the drop rates of cards are 2 you idiot. Get your damn facts straight retard.
Frosty is the only admin who even cares the slightest about qRO.
qRO went downhill ever since Kakashi left, and I don't see it lasting much longer.

So there you have it. Goodbye qRO. Goodbye everyone, it was fun until I found out how ****ed up this server is. I'll be joining the server Cessy is on. Maybe some of you will realise that this server is doomed and join me.

To all the people I've met and become friends with; peter_muscat71290<at>hotmail<dot>com
qRO, everyone, Goodbye.

FYI, Raveux (Rave) is the administrator of Quality Ragnarok Online. First <GM>Kakashi leaves, now <GM>Lauren gets fired after recently switching her GM position from HR to LR. Apparently, <GM>Lauren was an awesome GM on qRO HR according to many; there's even a petition setup on the qRO forums for her to comeback.

The poster's point about Rave letting his close GM friends abuse the party bug also ties in with the earlier post by KillerSmo about GMs being "your friends."

I just hope this isn't indicating the downfall of Quality RO anytime soon. :/

And the drama continues even further...

Hello,

I am Raversth, current owner of qRO. One of the three creators of this server, aside from frostycpu and Sacreligious. We started this project a year and a half ago. With a small population, mostly people from USA and Poland ( blinks to Tien and the Katz Squad, and to Hoover, Dookie and Miroku ) We were under 100 players in-game most of the time, but that server grewed up, and in one month, players helping the gms to fix stuff, helping then to add features and etc. We've became the first server with the advanced class working properly. And more, we had a special system to get there, that several servers tried to copy.

Then, players starting to invite people, we grew and grew and more ! We were the first legal server to bypass the thousand cap. What a pride to us GMs and to you players. More than being the best server, we became the biggest one too. I'm so proud of what we accomplished together. It was a dream becoming reality.

After that, I had the idea to create the HR server. Which was sure to have a brilliant future, like it did. Aside with Aalye we made this server one of the biggest High rates server. It rocked hard, I've been so proud of what we made, that I can only respect what it is.

Then the time passed, we updated the server and switched to freya. When Yor quitted eA, since he's a good friend, we decided to follow him. We helped him and with you players, to fix this emulator to make it so stable, that aegis people would start to switch back. They are still coming back to freya.

When finaly, lots of things changed, all my old mates left playing RO cause they didn't playing RO anymore, I got a girlfriend which I love and takes much of my time, the HR admin changed twice ( DevilAngelik, then Gigi ), the LR admin changed too ( Kouki ) and all I was meant to is updating the server, almost no communication with the players, tho, talking with the players is the only fun part in being an admin. It was being stable but not as fun.

Came the DDoS. What a pain in the arse, we had to find new servers, find what to do, settle how much time it would take to update, etc. A lot of players left while it happened, the worse thing that happened to qRO. But tho, it survived it, and it came back up.

And then, here we are, the great Kouki had to leave, letting us with a spot to fill. He wanted Lauren to be the main admin on the LR server, something I am not having the same position on, and didn't tell me about it. Then came all the Lauren problem.

So now, all I need to know, is if I still have you with me, players of qRO. If you left or want to leave, do it, but don't post a reply here.

I need to know if I keep this whole thing up or not.

I'm going to sleep on it, but tho, please post I'll read when I'll wake up. I'm currently crying about thinking to leave this server since I spent more than 18 hours per day creating it, I still just can't figure.

Source: Which path will it be

With all the recent complaints against qRO, now even the qRO server administrator is questioning if qRO should stay up or not. I seriously hope qRO doesn't go down.

Show your support for qRO in this thread if you want qRO to stay alive!

[zarkan]

omg you are back

[KillerSmo]

I think he's still busy with homework.. If I know the University like I did... he should have finals until the 21st or the 22nd, but that's just my guess...

I think Yooun Huh is just checking the message boards - and not on the game...

[Demon]

erm...this makes me scare...

An update on the situation (from Raversth):

Ok, my head's off.

First thing first

**** divinia ro and eAthena, I won't make anything for people who left qRO, if they left, they'll stay there, if they want to come back, they will by themselves. And you don't know what you're talking about when you're saying eA can handle 1000+ players.

Second thing,

No, I won't close the server, I had a bad day yesterday, mostly personnal trouble, seeing friends at qRO dissing me was just making it worse.

Third thing,

Yes, we will make it shine like it should, lets see how Troll will be working.

So, unless the admin says otherwise, qRO won't be going anywhere.
