The past and the future..
Dear Traperians,
The past:
This edition of Trapera wasn't the best.. We though that it will be the most stable one but it was the opposite.
We encountered 3 very big problems:
1. Server crashed once because our dedicated server gone totally down
2. There was a misprint in one of our save system, so when the crash happened, many players lost some items from their houses
3. Too many players used PVP Bots which made PVP totally unplayable and we were not ready to manage that
Aftere these problems, we were very disappointed because we really had a load of expectetions for this edition and we put a load of work in fixing most important bugs.
As main creator of Trapera (I am speaking in my name, VodkaGuN) I wanted to give up. I was tired and these problems which came in the same time additionally to 30 hours without sleeping made me broke down totally..
I reacted very bad and I really want to appologize for that because I know that you invested your time & money and you had a load of expectations too..
To be honest, I have a load of years of experience in creating Open Tibia Servers but I never had RPG servers before Trapera and I underestimated exigences for this type of server.
Many of you are for sure very frustrated and probably strike out Trapera for ever after this edition and I can totally understand that. But for those who want still give us a chance, we will not give up this project.
We will still try to make this server answering to your exigences just out of respect. You deserve that.
The future:
First of all, we will change our attitude, we will become more professional in our exchanges with players and we will stop trying to communicate with disrespectful ones.
We hired a Community Manager. It's someone that I know in real life so he is 100% trusted person.
His job will be to be the principal person that will speak with players, taking care in baning bots, helping when you have a question or when you are stuck, reading your reports and transfering me the most important informations.
This will help me a load in my productivity for new content updates, bugs fixing, marketing and all other stuff around the server.
We will also recruit Tutors that will work in team with the Community Manager.
More discussions with the community need to be organisated to anticipate the biggest amount of problems like there was with PVP Bots. We need to have solutions before it happen.
There are still some bugs and before launching anything again we want this time to have them fixed not at 80% or 90% but at 100%!
We've created a new page on our website where you will be able to follow our latests fixes, things to do and in progress ones:
Trapera.net - Changelog
Our plan is to create a long term community, that's why we want to create 2 Worlds:
1. Oldera - life time server
2. Futura - for fresh wipes, before wiping, all characters will be transfered to Oldera.
Your actual characters, from this edition can already be considered as life time characters.
Market & Cast systems are very requested, we have in plans to add them ASAP.
If you have any proposals or bugs that we missed, do not hesitate to discuss with us on our
Discord
Thanks a load for reading this message.
Sorry again for this edition and we hope you will give us another chance.
Greetings,
Trapera Team
