Meh...some kids are really dumb...but so are some adults..

I know 12 yrs old dudes that are as mature as some 30yrs persons.

I dont think age has something to do with the maturity to be honest... education has something to do with maturity.


I don't think so, though... how does teaching you the Quadratic Formula makes you more mature? When it comes to me, it'd be more likely to make me want to shoot myself when a teacher drones about it, than grow up. :P

But... you know, it doesn't matter, because I'm like one of those 12 year old dudes that are like 30 year olds, like you said. :roll:


I don't think he meant school education, more than home education... manners, politeness, and kindness... that seems to be missing in the game...

Oh, man, then definently, +1 to that.
With some people in SRO...

Manners - out the window.
Politeness - part of manners, and out the window as well.
Kindness - it's like, every man for himself.
Morals - ROFL, who am I kidding...

Respect in SRO? Just like RL, you'll find some that have it, and others that would steal an sox from their mother. :shock:

Yep, think some folks missed that lesson in the early years - 'Treat others like you want to be treated.'

That should be a lesson/quest before you leave Jangan, lol

Oops too long OffTopic heh

Anyway... i once was grinding in a party with someone at tigers and he/she was about getting killed by a giant and the giant had half HP so i got there and start helping to kill it. The giant turned to me because i did a little more dmg and i ended up killing it. And this person starts screaming "KSer F*** you". I only replied "you were getting killed, i just wanted to drag it's attention enough for you to pot, but didn't mean to ks" and well... i know it's annoying to be ksed but i was just trying to help out...

A couple of days ago I was grinding on South Tiger Mountain. There was a giant white tiger and as I can use some extra XP/SP I went to the tiger. There was someone else and he/she immediately pm-ed me 'please don't ks... " so I pm-ed back "oh, okay, go ahead"

I turned around and saw another giant white tiger and started killing it. I was halfway and the other guy started also beating the tiger.

I pm-ed "hey, now it's your turn to step aside"

his answer "sorry didn't notice it was you" and he went away.

Too bad this doesn't happen always :)

The SRO community is messed up, I've been saying this for a while, main reason being the fact that anyone can just go in and play it..

Another big reason is the general game play, for example alchemy, this has got to be the biggest frustrating thing I have ever dealt with.
First getting the elements which takes weeks, then you have to be lucky enough to get the tablet drop you need, so finally you have a stone, when you use it, theres about a 40% chance it actually works otherwise all that effort has gone to waste, if it does work, you have to be lucky to get a nice result from it, and if you have even worse luck you get assimilation and the one stat on your item that you liked gets ruined !!
With all due respect this is just complete and utter bullshit, and even I, being the calm person I am, had the urge to just randomly go break stuff :banghead:

Not to speak of buying astral/immortal, I've had complete batches of 500 silk (13/14 astrals) gone to waste and have not seen +5 once, that means +5 failed 13/14 times in a row, there goes my 50 bucks..

And then there is PVP, put on a cape, go outside, find a nice target to PVP with, and if you're lucky theres noone near you doing an aoe stab, stun or knock back ruining your chances. And with this PVP system any random person can just attack you wether you like it or not.. which.. happens a lot..

And last but not least, the 'triangular conflict' which they're so proud of, poppers anyone?

And there are tons of other examples, cheaters aside..



Don't get me wrong, it's a really good game, but there are a lot of things just not thought out very well, and frustrations build up inside which will eventually show..


I have moved to WoW, and the first time I asked a question to a random person I got the 'No ty' response, I actually got a friendly polite response! I was seriously surprised to get such an answer, I can count the times someone's said that to me in SRO on one hand..

So conclusion, wow > sro :D

Another thing that sux about the alchemy/refining is that its pretty much equal chance for all lvls.
This game I played before sro, Rose, I think that had a great system, there were elixers and powders, there was a different elixer for each +upto like 10, then there was a whole bunch more different powders each with a quality number on em representing how good it was, so you need an elixer to +1 and depending on what quality of powder you use effects the chance of success, and the higher lvl you get the better powders mobs drop and higher lvl items need better powders. I just think sro needs something better cus at lvl 70 I thought it was pretty gay I couln't even get a low lvl item +5 =.=. But I think that kind of system right now would make things a lot worse with the way sro is with all the bots lol.
