Ok, what about people that don't want to use gold tickets? There are those of people who are willing to pay to make it easier to log in, but can't afford to pay as much as $13 dollars a month. Maybe $5 dollars a month.

I could understand this if you dont live in the states or the uk but if you do you should find a new job maybe?

I know my job pays 500$ a week :\.

oh and usa and uk are the only country's being able to buy gold eh? i can't blame you for not knowing, but there are other wealthy countries outside the usa aswell... take whole europe, Asia's economy is growing to outdo yours,... this might be new or shocking to you, but thats how it is...

so, time for you guys to enlighten me: how can one buy a 1000€ (about 1350$) pc -if not more expansive- without being able to buy for 5$ of silk??? or for all you kids: without being able to give their children some MONTLY pocketmoney off 5$?

I don't have kids and I don't plan on having them and I payed 3grand for my pc which is the least of my worries when it comes to money.

I wasn't saying all countries are poorer im mentioning that people who live in the states and the UK shouldnt have a problem with spending 15-30$ a month if they have a decent job. Since I don't have the place to say if people make alot of money or not in others

Not to mention alot of the people who play arent parents and are living with a roomate or going to college, too.

sounds like a great idea if it's just a bonus thing for ticket users.

OMG PLZ EDIT THE FIRST POST


people going crazy and dont read shit make me mad...


-ok they'll give a special LOGIN acces to people buying ticket

-You STILL can play for FREE

-No ADDITIONAL COST


I dont think they'll make a new server for it... or they'll have to amke one for each server, can't make one for every server... imagine the sosun traffic that would happen...

So how much each month you have to pay to be able to play?
and when they gonna release the new servers?! :roll:

it still seems that some poeople don't get it. there will be no new servers just for grinding. the game will still be free to play.the only change will be for those who buy a gold/silver ticket.they will have a reserved slot on there server so they can log in first try if they have a gold/silver ticket activated.nothing else would change.it is just to prevent loss of time on your ticket from not being able to log in. I have lost days from my ticket not being able to log in.they just want to keep there paying customers happy thats all.

This is a friking good idea. I don't understand why people don't get it.

Whats wrong with me, a gold ticket buyer, getting a 100% guaranteed log-in button whenever I want to spend what I paid for?

Huh. Perhaps MD and the others in the US office read the lawsuit thread where I pointed out that by selling an item and then not allowing players to use it or not refunding the lost time might draw the ire of US State's attorney offices. Took them a while to check into that. I noticed they started refunding lost GT time not long after that thread too. Or did they do that before? The recent refunds were the first I'd seen in 2007 at least, I don't know if they did before that.

Yeah, the last two were the first time I'd seen that, but then I've only been playing since the beginning of this year.

There used to be a ton of people always asking to be refunded for their tickets and then one day they just actually started to put them in your storage ^.^

After reading this thread, I must say that the average intelligence of the sro gamer is falling into retard level. The amount of idiots who can't/refuse to read or comprehend simple English is simply amazing.

k, let me explain, not everyone uses item mall. that means if they reserve spots, its either harder to log in for non-item mall users or it will be more laggy. either way it suks coz i dont use item mall and im not planning to. its a free game after all, isnt it.

How can they guarantee a better chance of logging in? Are they going to disconnect botters, or multiclienters, or stallers? Or maybe legit f2p players?

My real question is this:

If they can give a better chance of logging in by doing one of the first three options listed above, then why can't they ban the botters and multiclienters? Why is it so much more difficult to just do the bannings up front, than to charge us to get into the game?

Seems to me that they know who is botting, and show us a little ban list every now and then to make it seem like they are doing something. In the end I would have to say this all comes down to money I guess. Bot companies obviously have the upper hand in the banning, as they get paid, and must pay joymax to keep the servers bot infested.

Does anyone else notice that we seem to be getting the short end of the stick?

the dews would rather chit chat than work on the game. these are detractors. giving u some false hope that u can actually have a say in the game developments.
