100% theory for both side, 0% of actual plan for execution. (excluding the ones to say keep it exactly the same as now, then there's no plan that needs to be discussed)
Instead of shouting matches, how about everyone on every side writing out some detailed plan on how to carry out your idealized changes on Aldebaran WoE Castle? Only when you have detailed plans with some dates and numbers rolling can you start some actual calculation.
Pure trash talking and speculation without plans only make you sound like a Canadian politician and it isn't going to convince anyone.
Let's get some questions for thought to start some actual planning going. I honestly think that nobody on any side has thought it through on all possible viewpoints and directions yet. We have no clue what the GMs want or what they are thinking, but let's at least make ourselves presentable and civilized regardless of what you stand for.
1) If you want to move it to a new time slot, what is the time? how long per non-trans woe? how often? what date? does trans woe also need adjustments to accommodate? Will new time make it more difficult for events such as ToH to be hosted or interfere with any other events? Does the increased frequency of another type of WoE affect players in their preparations for WoE? Does trans WoE need adjustment to accommodate?
2) If you want to increase/decrease eco formula, what should be the new formula? Do take into account that increasing eco cap doesn't always mean an increase in chest, because you can change the equation for number of eco to constitute a chest. Vice versa is also true that lowering the cap isn't always an end to chests. So, give an actual formula if you want to change how eco works in Aldebaran. (note: it is hard coded 12 AM of every day, you *will* get some number of chests. It's not possible within our limits to change this rule. Likewise the guild ability of eco development for 2 points instead of 1 is also not going to change.)
2b) If you also want to change the content of the chests, what should they be? Do trans chests need to change to accommodate the changes?
3) If you think that Aldebaran castle is fine in design and the problem lies outside of the design, then what is the problem (if any)? How should we solve it?
4) If you think that Aldebaran castle is beyond save and needs absolute closing, what should be done for the guild currently owning the castle, if any? According to those who believe in this, GMs need to forcibly cease the castle away from the current owners (unlike previous payon castle where we ask a guild leader to unconditionally surrender the castle), so should compensation be given? If so, what should it be? Does trans castle need to change accordingly since the total number of castles changed?
5) Changes done to a "heRO feature" by GMs isn't an act that only answers heRO, but also towards all advertisement sites including RMS where "other server players" crawl all the other servers' forums to wait for a chance to make a "false advertisement" call and other ruleshark activity to discredit server reviews/popularity. How should the server prepare for any of these related threats?
6) For any sort of change related to this castle, *when* should the change take place? When to execute the plan? How do we choose the date of executing the plans so that it is fair for all guilds (especially if there's a "nerf" or "buff" in prizes/chests?)
