yeah i remember that. I joined right after the 70 cap came out. i remember all the people that wished they where bad ass would go try to ks us lower levels. Back then 5x was amazing and 7x was Godly. but pritty much everyone was 3x-4x and back then dw was the most populated city. Now you cant walk in hotan without holding down V all the way ._.

Hey, you aren't BD~Whome by any chance are you? From Halo PC? Just out of curiosity.

OT: Everyone KSes nowadays, its just how SRO is now. Shame, but they aren't going to stop anytime soon; so you have to do what you have to do.


No, sorry, not this person. I play the game (on and off) for quite a bit, but I am sucker for low levels (in all games lol not the most competitive type methinks). Back in the day of 3 servers and everybody talking about DreamZ (*remembers* Dude, Iceman was in my party today!!!) most my characters were named Dogo something.

OT - And speaking of low levels, what I see a lot nowadays is Wizards approaching your grind area, and stay there doing nothing until you start wacking at a mob. Then they will KS you. They are not there to level up, their sole purpose in life (at least the pixelated one) is to annoy you.

Bots don't really laugh. The ones laughing (frommy experience) are the powerlevelers who arrive with a lvl 90 player (usually automated) and 4 horses on Trace to take your grinding spot. But not before they make perfectly clear what a noob you are for playing the game in first place.

Even if players were botting, at least they had the courtesy to not ks. Now its the complete opposite. Everyone kses eachother and watching all the lvl 90's grinding is just like watching goldbots in a mangyang field.


need to get them damn germans out of our spot :x

euro had a big thing to do with this. Wizs ks everything pretty much so when the ppl started botting wiz or euro pts the only way to counter was to turn ks on. So one thing lead to another n now ksing is accepted.

how long have you been playing? I've been playing 2 maybe 3 years now and when i first joined KSers where the butt of sro. and if you KS'd everyone would know and shun you. that's why one of my friends made his char name KSer but its not wrong to KS anymore so... that names old.

I'm following a simple rule. If someone does not KS me, I will not KS him, if he shall KS me I'll KS him. I can ask to stop the KS, if the player doesn't stop (is a bot or something) I start KSing him.
