  • Legendary Items Some of these Legendary items will even be named after the first player who discovers them.

    Yeah, $30 would be better, but more GM's = more $$. They COULD roll all this out to the 40 other servers, but then everyone would have to pay the extra to cover hundreds of new GM's.

    Who cares about the GMs? The GMs all have different ideas of the rules anyways, and are generally very rude to you to boot! It may be only the GMs on Fennin Ro, i wouldnt know.
    I really cannot see how an extra $30 a month is going to improve how the GMs treat people. Its rediculous.

    8000 x 40 = 320,000 A MONTH!

    Man, im quitting my job, and applying at Verant for a GM job! How many GMs are going to be working this server anyway? Yes, 40 a month is too high.
