It's not the purpose as Joymax intended (maybe it is?), but it's the purpose as players perceived it. Why would someone be in an academy that doesn't plvl, when tehre are literally hundreds that give free plvls. As a guardian, you should want points, not to shoo people away from giving you them. If you're so uncomfortable helping people out, maybe the roll of a guardian isn't the right one for you.

Go bulkans ;)

I went through the same things with mine, needless to say my academy lasted about 48 hours, ended up just being a hard lesson to learn that set me back 100k. Never gonna have another one, way too much of a hassle.

This is the only reason i hate power leveling.

We get new players who don't even know how to leave an academy who think they should get a free ride to lvl 40.

Stupidity at its max, maybe they should learn how to play 1st.

Also your no better than them. Using such immature language when simply ignoring them or not resulting to same lame insults such as "motherfucker" would of been suffice. But hey, whatever works for you i guess.

You can opt to only allow friends in your academy, if the concept of a stranger is that offensive to you

I've pretty much given up, can't have graduates unless you powerlevel, until i'm 80 and done farming anyway.

Buffs are nice but I can't really compete with 24/7 bots powerlvling lol, 30-70+ graduates take the highest spots already.

Learn to play the game before coming here, a guardian's job is to show the map, maybe teach what different stuff is, in short its to help a beginner get started in SRO.

If you really want your god damn honor points recruit 24/7 bots in your academy and go PvP...

Its suppose to be a place where a low level can ask someone for help if they need it. Back in the day when i 1st started playing i was lucky to have real life friends to show me the basics. But now, the academy system was created so that new players have a place to ask the basics of the game.

Also it was created to promote high levels jobbing with low levels. To have lvl 60+ people to show new players the basics to jobbing and ways to survive etc.

Power leveling should never be an automatic thing. If a guardian wants to do it then so be it, if not the new players should have no right to ask for it.

no i get it is to help people with questions... but with the entire point system with it... how is it not plvling?

you want acadmy member to send you the points but you didn't do anything to get them either?

with plvl, you get them exp points, they get you cumlative points and honor points each lvl

seems like you want it just 1 way with them doing work and you just answering a few questions...

With my noob accounts, I always join the ones that offer plvling for free. Why wouldn't I? Umm...everything between 1-40 is pointless especially if it's a euro char, and, at least on Oasis, there are ZERO parties for euro chars.

High levels want those buffs, I want a relatively leveled euro char, it's a win-win situation.

The purpose is to GET HONOR POINTS, not to help new people. How many "new people" will actually spend 74 tries attempting to log in to the server (Oasis, non-peak hours, regular client (not a "no-dc-one")).

Quite frankly, that asshole turk was right in that you should powerlevel, though, you are right...in that he should leave himself. Whatever.

*sigh* some people just don't understand the point of powerleveling...party mobs...etc. (At least, the way it's come to be...) Accept it, it's part of the game.

Most people learned long ago to not allow strangers into their academy. Its not worth the hassle. Most just irritate you with their incessant begging for plvling, not listening to you when you try to help them with the game, or simply log in for 2 days never to be seen again. Not worth it. Just recruit friends into your academy and/or be -very- clear to people how you run your academy. Before I let a random person in my academy I let them know exactly what the services are that I provide, and how I provide them. That said, don't make an academy if you aren't willing to plvl people, because that really is the point of it and what people expect when they join.

Acadamy is useless if you are a high level euro, since there is no sosun for them. You get buffs but not worth the hassle.
