Ragnarok Server Changelogs / 22/09/2014 Retirement
« on: September 23, 2014, 01:10:24 PM »
This will come as a surprise to some of you, but for others, you knew it was coming. I am officially retiring from the AeRO development team. I've been thinking about it for a long time and decided it's time now. I will try to keep the post fairly short.
Why? Well, to put it simply, I'm not enjoying being part of the staff team here. As a developer, my job here is to implement new things to AeRO and fix current things. However, I have been unable to do this effectively due to my lack of access to server files. I completely understand this as it requires A LOT of trust to give someone this kind of access but when only one of the two admins on the server are active, and very little at that, even the smallest changes take a long time to do. It's very frustrating trying to get things done on the server. It takes constant pestering for something that takes 5 minutes to be done. Even if I have a script tested and ready to go, it's still a long process to get it implemented to the server and I am tired of dealing with that.
There are other reasons for me not enjoying working for AeRO besides development issues but I will leave it at that because it's the main reason and I want to keep my post short. I've just reached the 'enough is enough' point now after finding out that the time capsule delay was added to my quest and learning that ALL future quests will have this 'feature'. That annoyed me a lot.
