The Graal Communication Center is the official forum of GraalOnline.
The official name is Graal Communication Center (reserved for gold and vip subscribers), but only Unixmad calls it that.
Structure
The forum is currently divided into GCC:Sections: the GCC:General Section, GCC:Gold Section, GCC:3D Section, GCC:Playerworlds Section, GCC:Development Section and GCC:Private Section. Each section holds multiple GCC:Subforums.
A oversized moderation force with not equally balanced qualification is moderating the Graal Communication Center. Some GCC:Moderators moderate one or more individual subforums or a whole forum section. Some subforums are not moderated directly, and more interesting ones are overseen by multiple moderators. Spark911, Kamuii and Moon Goddess are still GCC:Super moderators, and thus should be fairly moderating the whole Communication Center. MagicalTux from the Cyberjoueurs offices is also serving as forums administrator.
Access
Gold and VIP accounts can access the board freely, with no restrictions. Since Christmas of 2004, Classic accounts are also able to use the board, but they are forced to wait eight hours between making consecutive posts.
It is against the GCC:Rules of the forums to post messages from or for non-members of the forums. This is to prevent Account sharing, which was very common in the forum's past and arguably had a negative influence on the motivation to buy a Gold account.
Neutrality
Unsurprisingly, the forums are very biased towards the Graal administration. Sadly, the Forum administration considers it neccessary to enforce this bias with rules that make any kind of criticism a banworthy action. Thus, it is not possible to discuss bans, actions of GraalOnline considered harmful or unfair, or shortcomings of the adminstration including Playerworld staff or the Gold servers.
Luckily, the most conservative moderators seem to have grown increasingly ignorant of these issues.
Curiosities
- Two "miscreants" (Zurkiba and one as-yet-unnamed member) were banned by Unixmad as part of a continuing (and utterly futile) drive to make the forums into a nicer place. More details here.
- Apparently, now even Moon Goddess suggests that you should stop playing Graal.
- Falco has, after a notoriously bad performance at trying to prove Kaimetsu wrong, exclaimed that at most five people think that he is a moron and that everybody else is well aware of his superior intellect.
