Rev6 Forums

[nohunta]

Now all those people who reported those who were botting are going to be hated on that forum. LOLOLOL Such Irony. So far ive seen Deacon, and i think Vandago Lawl. I feel sorry for all you who wanted to play supercop and now have enemys lawl.

I am expecting to see advertisement appear on their forum in the next 2-4 weeks xD

They actually added some feature to attach a rev6 player from there database to the forum and enabling to post youtube video and are having a item trading system coming in (iTrader from vbulletin) >.>

At least they are adding newer feature and not just a plain forum not managed.
Oh and you talk about Deacon --> there nicole too that is there...

Though was deacon really hated...
I mean Drew Brenton was on this forum for the longest time and wasn't banned.
That kind of surprised me a lot...

This thread should be closed btw...
I don't see the purpose on this forum to talk about another forum...

This forum is nice the way it is.

I am a bit baffled though.. Does Rev6 have access to all the SRO servers? Are they in fact part of the JoyMax Marketing Strategy? How come they can post stats of all servers, data on all players, data on guilds, etc..

Can someone who is more knowledgeable care to explicate?

access to all the sro servers: No

Are they in fact part of the JoyMax Marketing Strategy: Most likely not
there was a notice many months ago by joymax that rev6 is not to be trusted lol

How come they can post stats of all servers, data on all players, data on guilds, etc..:
Rev6 has created its own bot which works via rerouting all packet traffic through their program. This bot is free, people could just download it and use it. (controversial to their forum rules) Their bot reads out information about players that surround the player that is using the rev6 bot. This data is being sent to rev6, thats how they update their statistics. So everyone who is using rev6 bot is contributing to updated stats. In the beginning rev6 used to have its own characters standing in towns to scan for people and stats, I am assuming this is not necessary anymore because their bot probably does this.
They also have created a clientless bot for people who want to make goldbots, but this project is not public so there aren't many information one can gather without either cracking access or paying for it - but one could assume these bots might update their statistics as well.
Legit or not - bot users provide the stats which bot users and legit users use to inform themselves. If one would go for arguments, one could say srf is pathetic for even tolerating the use of rev6 lmao.. but I dont really want to go there
Rev6's entire marketing strategy is to get people just like you and me to visit their website. (and sell their clientless bot to a limited amount of people) They get paid for you clicking advertisements or just seeing them. So how do they get many unique visitors? Server stats are the interesting thing here. They may change, so people come again and again lolz

oh what I forgot: how can they tell the server capacity?
debugging the client to see what happens when you press the "Select Server" Button will reveal how to access this list. This list contains also whether a server is "easy" "populated" or "full". Those who have changed their media.pk2 fonts to korean etc. probably have noticed that there can be an additional status called "full". These statuses are calculated from the number of players in the server at the moment. So via debugging one could extract that code and write your own little program that tells you how many people are online at the moment. That should give an idea how rev6 did it.
Note: debugging is usually not allowed

a forum will just expand their popularity and amount of unique visitors who will also take a look at the server stats (and the advertisments yay!)

sorry for long text, would have written pm but was not possible

I like rev6 forums alot, I think they did an excellent job. The reason they don't want talking about bots on their forum is because the last one turned into a bunch of turks and kids asking for bot support.

[Cullen]

Rev6's forum is alot more open then this forum, and EB ruined this forum imho.

I looked, I lol'd, I felt tempted to add something about Mr Fudge's super l33t pwnage str mastery format, but then realised it would be lost on them.

[Lixiae]

Its the final nail in the coffin for these forums. The amount of retardation Ive seen on here has increased exponentionally since the big "srf war on bots". Quality of posts is at an all time low, flames and idiocy is at an all time high. My .02 cents.

SDFU thats my thread. I agree with you though what there saying is of no use Im worse off then when i started.

[rek]

the not bot talking rules on the rev6 forum are to ensure that EVERY SINGLE FARKING POST doesnt turn into a bot accusation post like on this forum lol. I hope all from SRF go to rev6 and leave this forum in the dust.

gtfo then
