when i was gamehoppin couple of years ago, i came past this game.
but ya, i was gamehoppin so i didnt stick with it for that long.
one thing i remember was that, compared to other mmo's i played
around that time, sro seemed to lag in movement. like, i clicked,
then my char waited 1 second, then it started moving.
anywho, am still gamehoppin, came past silkroad again in february
'07, played it for a while again.

I was looking for the link to R.O.S.E online on
http://www.mmorpg.com/ so that I could start playing it again. But some how ended up finding Silkroad Online instead. I started playing during beta in 2005 and never played another game since then.
Now I'm waiting for Warhammer.

I was reading the Steam forums for CS 1.6 back in October 2005 and someone mentioned a free game. I had never played an MMO so I decided to give this one a try... and now here I am.

Me and Sacch along with some other members of the guild we were in on iRose found it posted on the rose forum(which is owned by srt) when they made a topic about it and put up Srt.
Still got a couple ss's that were posted there lol.
Sro, Alpha.

some friends from my student home started playing this game when i had my finals ... it looked cool but i refused to install it. Once i had passed all my exams i searched 2 days for the name "silkroad" untill my friend got back from his vacation xD

this was like 2 years ago when Greece was a (NEW) server

Ravey from Rome, who is one of my IRL best friends, kept telling me I should play it. She was on Aige then. I refused. Didn't want to be one of those dork WOW/MMO type guys. Then, a little over a year ago, I had some REALLY traumatic stuff happen to me, and I needed something to completely numb my brain and keep me busy. So, I went over to Ravey's place a bunch, and had her help me create a player and show me the ropes. I met lots of nice people, like KingLeoric who lent me nice SOS 3D gear

Now, the rest is history. I'm one of those nerdy MMO guys lol

A friend first showed it to me. I didn't like it, but after some time i decided to try it myself. I found out that it was fun, and that friend and I soon discovered that the game is nice to play but horrible to watch someone playing it.

But some people I played Unreal Tournament 2004 found the game and showed it to me. I had never played an mmo let alone an rpg so I gave it a try along with a friend of mine. Both of us made it to 80 ^_^

I was playing Eudemons Online, and my friend showed me some games like Kal Online and SRO...
First I said: I don't wanna play those shitty chinese games, but later I was bored, so I decided to log on on his char on his PC, and I kinda started to like it

I thought the people PvPing outside of jangan were PKers, they would kill you if you came near (that's what he told me) xD
SO I decided to start a char, joined a Dutch guild and stayed
After that I found out my build was suxx0rz so I decided to read some guides on builds and decided to make a nuker.
After hitting lv 44, 7gap I decided to join my other friends on Persia... and now I have a lv 54 9gap euro char
