Considering the fact almost everyone uses a free or cracked bot nowadays whats the point of playing :?: It's not even a matter of "IF a person will get 80" nowadays . It's just a matter of will it take one month or two? So why do people keep playing and spending tons of money a month on cash shop items? :O

-edit- I can't get the 3rd option to show up in my poll. wtf :/

3rd option was... I can't find a better game to play. LoL

You might want to have a look at this old thread that I did a while back. Most players here really just play sro for the fun of it. Click here.

Just for fun. It's enjoyment - sro is still a great game, despite its drawbacks and problems.

Have run across people from all walks of life, and made many friends, had many chats about how our worlds differ. These are people and experiences I wouldn't have been exposed to had it not been for sro.

Not to mention, there's something addicting about killing a mob and having it drop a little treasure chest for you... you always have to kill one more because it could be the one to give you another chest! 8)

I play to have fun and help ppl out. I'm already 80, so I don't really need to grind.

Nowadays I go around making funny globals, giving gold away for answering questions in funny globals, and pvping.

wow.never thought at that.ok..i'll quit now..cya.
since the "how much time will it take me to get to lvl 80" battle doesn't matter anymore..lets make a new one :
who can delevel from lvl 80 to lvl 1 faster.this would help a lot..bot murdering and such.chaos for joymax !

don't know why i'm playing it but it's my first mmorpg so this might explain some things.

First of all in my opinion Silkroad is unique, yes JM dont know how to run gaming business, they only think about market and money. I like te game and gameplay, its quite fun, you can design your own character, make it flexible and so on. Alchemy system is fun, though its frustrating if you fail. Jobin system is also unique. Big plus in my eyes are the skills, I like te flashy and fancy nukes and buffs :P . Armour and weapons looks good also. I dont know i am playing it a year now and i want to achieve more goals, like get that amount of sp , get that weapon etc. Its endless and interesting game. The BIG downside is botter, legits cant lvl with speed of botters. For me getting 64 is a big achievement and lvl 70 much bigger, because i dont play it constantly.

I still play cus I still like silkroad, its the longest game I have ever played for sure, the only thing I really don't like about the game isn't even the game, but the ppl and what they do, but theres other ppl i'd want to play with more then wanting to not play with the rest ;d.

I got bored from the constant grinding, so i quit at lvl 27.
I'd probably go back, but comp is gay, so it probably wont hold SRo again :(

I usually try and just play for fun?? Who really cares if you have a number that says "80" on the top left of your screen. If thats you goal, well its time to look at the real world. Now , I have to say its fun trying to be a higher lvl, because you can do things then in game. However, people who use real money, for a game that deep down is only a bunch of 0's and 1's, well idk :x :roll:

SRO is fun and free

and I do want to play other MMORPGs but when I see them, I'm too lazy to learn all the stuff and when I think about it its just another RPG
