Heyo heyo heyo hehe. I have been organizing zak runs twice a day not because I need mesos (I would just sell leech if I want mesos LOL) but to help noobs (I'm a noob too LOL again) to get helm and so that my other attackers could get exp (1% per zak for me so idc LOL again) and earn a bit. We tried to run at different times of the day and most of those times, we got disconnected. We were lucky to be warped on some of them and mostly not warped because a GM isn't on. I understand that the server has been unstable due to the massive amt. of online players. However, there are times that we still organize thinking that server is okay because server crash was an hr ago or more. Is it possible that you put up a notice saying if a GM is on or anything that can let us know? Or... Do you recommend that we don't do boss runs until new source comes out? Thank you in advance.
I don't think it's a good idea to say when a GM is/isn't on. The one reason I can think of right off the bat is as soon as the notice comes up that a GM is on, all cheaters/botters immediately disable their software. I've found when I quickly sign on and don't announce my presence, I usually catch a couple people cheating or botting or acting inappropriately. This was a similar reason as to why we did not allow GMs to have non GMs on their buddy lists.
I wouldn't want GMs to show online, just any divine sign or something that tells us if the message was received in order to decide to wait 10 mins or just go do something else.
