Deco Online: A new communtiy in the making

Deco Online
Deco online, is in its open beta stages, and is a great game.
I can go into great detail why this game will eventually kick SRO to the curb, but that is not what I am here for.
I am interested in starting the first fan forum for Deco Online.
Actually it would be the only forum for Deco Online seeing as that not even the company that made the game has one.

I of course want the great SRF community to be a part of this.
Currently I have already landed a host, and I am trying to come up with the money for my domain name.
I was told it would $15 a year.

Unfortunately enough, I don't posses a credit card, or the forum would already be operational. This I am working on.

I would like to see some support from some familiar faces though, before I go ahead and spend the money.
~400 people play Deco Online currently, and a decent amount of them would visit the forums, but knowing some people, and being able trust someone with admin abilities other than myself would be great.

If anyone is interested in helping me manage the website, please let me know here or in a PM.

*note* more information to come but its getting late and I have to be up in the morning to babysit

Naahh this game is too cartoonish !
Its even worse then World Of Warcraft for that WoW atleast got some background history :wink:

Silkroad got history, its realystic, and some fantasy thingy that fits very well to the world, got unic class system and for sure even more unic proffesion system (the Jobs: thief, hunter, merchant)

There is no way to kick the SilkroaD`s ass

It's cute. I might consider it, but I doubt it will usurp SRO.

probably the only reason we dont play WoW and we play this is because we dont wanna pay monthly or like me, cant. if it was free or 1 off payment im pretty sure there would be half the SRO players there are now.

I've tried Deco Online.
Too laggy, too heavy, too cartoonish, skills are too weird.
I do have a contact of their GM though. He recommended me to play but I said naw.

I don't see why everyone complains about lag and DC's.
Just like in silkroad I never have these issues :roll:

Personally, I like the skills. Because of the combos, it is nearly impossible to bot.
My only issue is not being able to minimize the game.
I logged a ticket and got this:

Type of Query: Technical Issues
Subject: Not able to minimize
Your Query Details: While playing today, I went to minimize the game so that I could talk to my girlfriend, but much to my dismay I could not.
It would be greatly appreciated if you could add this feature to the game.
Thanks,
A satisfied customer

Dear Demonboy1840,

Unfortunately, we won't allow to minimize DECO ONLINE.
Please kindly understand the situation.

Thank you.

I can understand that they dont want to make it easy for people to multi-client and such, but common!
It's an easy fix.

It really pisses me off because I like to talk to friends and listen to music as I play games, and since I cant minimize the game, I can no longer do that.
I did find a script that would allow me to minimize it, but I'm afraid to download it for fear of it being a virus

Update: I found a temporary free host
http://www.decoforums.forum5.com is the site so far, I'm still working on adding GFX and such.
Supposedly the site is going to be letting us have our own free domains soon, so I'm looking forward to that.
