dont get me wrong. i love how jm has tried to reduce bots by adding the verification code. but trying to log in during peak hours and having to put it in every time is just eating time. time that i could be using up my ticket to buy some more silk (<--@jm)

maybe they could make it so when you put in the code it starts a timer, so you can log in without having to re-enter it for, say, 3 minutes? 5 minutes? idk. maybe it can keep players happier.

True.

The image verification hasnt done anything better.
The only thing it has done is getting me thinking of downloading a auto login software. -.-

Yah, Ice. I 've been thinking the same thing.
This $h1t with codes kills me, guyz! U made a 10 mins ban if u get it 3 times wrong... why dont u make 10 mins of "not nesecary to re-enter the code, I trust u are a human"?

If you can't type it right in 3 tries you have issues - that's just dumb, go practice typing or something.

BUT, I agree it is extremely annoying. If you enter the code and then get the server traffic message you then get the Disconnected message and then you get to start over and try again.. this is fkn lame.

Its anoying but i sometimes play when there are not alot of ppl on
And yah il be happy whit 1 Min....

I think they should make you type the verification after you connect and right before you hit the character screen. Having to type that in when your just gonna get kicked off is pointless and annoying.

+9 on what he said. Also if they implement what EllisD said, then they can put a timer on how long you can stay on that character screen like 30secs lets say, and if you havent picked your char in that long, you get disconnected.

Well

form what i have noticed even when i put the right code in it says
wrong code entered...and this is always after i wait for a bit.

Either way i have no trouble logging in at all. i never get disconnected
(thanks to my own ass 10MB connection).

Only problem i do have is that code error message, but its not really a big
deal anyway.

i say just connect to the server before you have to enter the code then it wouldnt boot you after you enter the code
its ..... retarded when you connect, enter the code, then get disconnected.......
no they should make it so that you log in and get your server spot then enter the code


its just stupid the way it is now... were connecting after we enter the code which is just stupid

good idea but that wouldn't top brute forcing like it does now. ATM its almost impossible for some guy with a program to hack, of course there's still the old fashion way but theres always that

maybe you should just not play during peak hours.

Check around bunwangs, mujigis and shades, and youll see why you cant log on. JoyNaxs war with bots ftw.

My internet speed owns, though I still have a hard time logging in on weekends.

maybe you should not post in the thread if youre not going to be constructive.

i hate it now more than ever trying to login...


*tries to login* cannot connect, server traffic... x15

*tries to login* "Woot! image verification!"

*types image verification* "failed 3 out of 1 times...

*types image verification again* cannot connect, server traffic...

*tries to login* Disconnected from the server...

*re-launches sro*

*tries to login* cannot connect, server traffic...x12

*tries to login* (just keep repeating all this... annoying x1222233333223422)

i don't know, it seemed to be easier for me to log on after the patch. i've never been able to log on within 2 tries beforehand. and also i was surprised to see that most servers were populated instead of crowded last friday after school (GMT-8 pacific time)

I have no trouble log in at all. But Oh well not fun if other cant log in .

its a good idea, very good idea... and while you wait to ligg in oyu can chat with the other guyst that are in the waiting list

lol yea like a lobby for log in losers.

THATS WHAT THEYLL CALL IT!!!!

bots will follow up.... and indeed, they did, as far as i know, therez bots huv around 85% login chance from verification code, they are going for 100%

nah, bots can auto login with the veryfication, but now the log in by themselves and then they activate the bot
