Theres plenty of gold bots, plenty of player bots, plenty of people buying that gold, thus plenty of people being active.

By definition it isnt dying at all. If it was people wouldn't be playing it, instead with have maxed servers. The process of dying is having 3 servers with 400 people and the rest empty, not 20 odd with 3500 + people in them.

there isn't that many, there's probly is enough people to fill 4-5 servers if there were no gold bots and spammers.

1.The economy of the game is compromised, the strongest players buy gold and gameplay it is shit(Joymax sell gold)
2.iSRO don't have customer care and support for users
3.Joymax don't respect the users and players who buy silk; why i can't login and my pet timer don't stop? (Joymax make money with silk)
4.iSRO is NOT free to play, it is only FREE TO DOWNLOAD (Joymax make money with Premium)
5.Joymax want ONLY money, the game it is BORING.
6.NO DROPS, NO GOOD PLACE FOR EXP, NO JOB TRADERS, iSRO it is unplayable.
7.3500 chars online = 90% bots user + bots gold farmers (Joymax make money with bot card)
8.Coreans make money with this shit game. Joymax staff are genius. STOP support Joymax with silk.
9. Sry for my bad english :)

Wrong on all 3. If you had phrased it that it was not "dead" you would be technically correct. But any rational person cannot argue that it is not dying.

That is a relatively rational reply. Though it does at first glance fly counter to all the Venus and Odin fanboyism. Makes me wonder if all the others so up on the servers understand it they way you do. A bigger waste of time and resources than ever before. But done for sheer love/addiction to the game. Me I am over my addiction and I prefer to remember and love the game for what it once was. And I have more worth while endeavors to waste my time and resources on. There are other F2P games out there. Many of which are not run joymax style which is to say not at all. Owning the piddly Jangan fort in a bot infested game is nothing. You should step up to the big leagues and try to take land from the big boys on PW now there is a challenge. Lots of territories lots more challenge. Oh well maybe you guys will be ready for it someday.

You play to much SRO. You are confusing bots for people. SRO is alive as a fully automated assembly line. Which while lively is not alive. When there is no one at the con with a pulse they are dead and so is SRO.

Joymax are interested in the money, which is what a business is, if you dont like the way this business is ran, DONT BLOODY PLAY THE GAME.

Ditto.

The key to this game being truly enjoyable is when its popularity dies down. Joymax will merge servers, gold bots will be down and it will be mostly a legit player base. Until then it is barely even worth playing. Even with Venus it really isn't much fun. Although there is a huge player base there is no highly competitive PvP. And the opposite of that is what ruins the other servers. Until Joymax actually needs to make changes to keep the game alive the game will remain as bad as it is now.

Not rly, it is more like a bad drug or a rich kid:

at first it seems very appealing and cool but it turns out to be rotten and spoiled.

I am hoping they'll somehow get the curve since the game has potential
