Silkroad Online Forums

Many players are complaining about not being able to log in or getting disconnected because a premium player has priority login. First, I suspect that those players were getting disconnected before, but that it beside the point.

Here is the point: prior to the premium ticket, if players wanted to avoid the hassle of logging in to crowded servers, they would simply not log out. Players would stall or just sit under a tree for the 21 hours a day they weren't playing. Personally, I would log in on Friday afternoon and log out Sunday evening. I might only play 8 hours, but to avoid the hassle of logging in, I'd stay logged in for 48.

Assuming everything else is equal: the number of players, the time they play, the length they play, etc., doesn't it make sense that if some of those players who stayed logged in 24/7 got a premium ticket so that they were guaranteed to be able to log back in, they would actually log out, reducing server traffic and freeing up server space?

So the introduction of the premium ticket should make it easier for ALL players to log in, not just the premium ticket buyers. Last weekend, for example, I didn't hear nearly as many login complaints on this forum as usual. I for one, logged out when I wasn't playing and only logged in for the 8 or so hours that I play between Friday night and Sunday night.

I know its popular to bash Joymax and complain about everything, but if you actually thought about it, you'd realize that, at least for the guaranteed login for premium ticket buyers, this is a change that benefits everyone.

yea and yea and Is allready many thread about it so post there ...

agree , plus there is a whole lot more people not using premium ticket then using it.

Yea wat non ego man said is true.

Before I would leave my character on all night just so I could play in the hour before I go to work on mornings. But now since the PreT I log out, obviously leaving a space for someone without the PreT.
I have even noticed at times that all the servers were usually crowded that they are now only populated.....except for Greece, its almost always crowded here.
There is an advantage for everyone, with or without the ticket.

Give it about 30days and there will be alot more people using the premium ticket. People are still waiting for there old GT to expire before buying the new one.
