No character wipes, that's for sure.

I highly doubt there will be a character wipe at this stage in the game. With the new map and the 90 cap, it just wouldnt make sense to start everyone at 0 again cause a hella lot of people who worked for char would be furious and probably quit. You would only have to start over if you wanted a euro character after that update is implemented.
But then again, knowing joymax, they would prolly make a hella silk item to restore your character, LOL. I wonder how many people would pay 2000 silk for one of those

Yeah when the 90 cap/euro updates come the server database will be deleted. Everyones lvl 80's will be deleted so they can start over again from lvl 1 to try and get 90.

It wouldn't make sense to do a character wipe and make everyone start at lvl 1 after releasing the 90 cap and/or euro. Why raise the cap if everyone in the entire server (all servers) is lvl 1? I just don't think it would make much sense to release new parts of the map, then make it so no one can play there. Well a lvl 1 could GO there (if they can make it that far) and then get 1 hit by any random mob.

Wipe all characters? Silk and time spent for more than 1 year down the drain?
Ppl would go to their office and crash their computers if they do that.

No, there will not be a character whipe when euro comes, we will probly get a few new servers tho. Yes, euro chars will get OWNED in the first week by capped chinese chars....but thats just in the first week
And yes, you get 100% extra exp and 200% extra SP with both the skill gold ticket and the regular gold ticket.

That's sarcasm, right?
There is no character wipe.
In old updates, they used to do that but it was a game malfunction.
There was no character wipe after cap was raised to 70, none for 80, there won't be for 90.

Even if the development of the game is completed, dont think i'll start over again if the problem about bots is not resolved

i have a feeling they'd have a pretty big class action suit on their hands. many of us have paid cash for items to advance our characters. to delete those characters means taking from us the money we have spent with them. i don't know the letter of the law, but i bet there's something not legal about that.

That is a very good point. That's a lot of money from a lot of players down the drain. Although I'm not sure that would hold up since Joymax doesn't charge you to get your character that strong and powerful. You choose to pay money to get your character there more quickly.
It would suck either way if they did a wipe, which I'm certain they won't.

lvl 90 is not the max lvl cap. So there is no reason to wipe chars because they need high lvl players to test and report bug their further updates. So atm there is nothing to worry about. Let's say they have to spend 7 months for each +10 lvl cap increase. So they will complete this game in at least 3.5 years more

That states that the account is Joymax's intellectual property. This means it is theirs and not yours. Therefore if they choose to delete it that is their choice. You are not spending money on something that is yours so it is not illegal. It would however be the dumbest business move in the history of dumb business moves if they did that though.

It wouldnt make sense. Botters would deal with it and bot a new account to 90 in under 6 mons. Hand grinders would sit at home an cry.

Oh I doubt they would ever do something that would cost them potentially all their money because people will be hesitant to invest again after the wipe is done because they will fear another wipe (excluding the ones who quit because their high level char got deleted)
