Quit, if all quit noone would buy silk, no incoem for JM, they would do something then. But since that won't ever happen, we can't do anything, just watch the game dieing, server getting more and more empty, no new faces, inbalanced skills/builds, dam this game got much more negative things then positive.

[PR0METHEUS]

OT : We can stop buying silks till we got the support we deserve aka (active GM)

That would work if we were the majority of the population. If we were 51% or more of the active players, that would be a swell idea.

Wouldn't work. If a majority of Joymax's customer base just stopped buying silk, Joymax would just shut down the game and concentrate their efforts on their other games like Deco Online or DarkEden.

It's a bit hard to put extra man hours into a project if you have no funding to do so.

Some things people can do to generally improve the game community:

1) Stop being an ass and be nice for a change. For example, stop doing the following things : calling everyone a noob, camping in ctf, being a bot, buying gold and scamming people.
2) If you are rich, walk around noob areas giving 100k to them
3) If you are higher level, give free plvls to random low levels
4) Don't ks/murder people just because you HAVE to have that grinding spot. Try talking to the people in your grind area and maybe start a share pt with them.

Yeah if only more people would do stuff like that.

with enough time and effort.........

First...
1)organize a Legit Organization that promotes ethical game play.

if it grows..

2)Organize 24/7 permanent Bot traps.

after that..

3)Organize a Player Bot Killing Clan.

once all bots are having trouble using their bots without having the kill in peace.

Boycott silk all together and demand change, this way silkroad will either go down, or rise up from auto pilot...

This would apply on all servers.

maybe, just maybe. Silkroad would change...

This are all just ideas though.....

EDIT: There might be a language barrier, but that could be fixed by setting up people that can translate and promote this idea..

Change Joymax's Moderation Team

We basically have this already with the Confederation, just not on all servers.

3)Organize a Player Bot Killing Clan.

This seems like a good idea on the surface, but what about player bots who may want to (or can be convinced to) play legit, but feel they "can't". I'm sure there are some out there. Murdering them won't exactly convince them to stop botting. Wouldn't it just give the legit community a bad name in their eyes?

I guess we could just drive them off the server, but we could lose potentially good legits couldn't we?

Boycott might work if Silkroad was Joymax's only income source, but they do have other games. They can just shut Silkroad down and never look back.

Get rid of the goldbots

[SoundBurst]

Well, there are many flaws, he're the fixes in my opinion we could send to joymax to fix:

1.) Fix all the bugs, exploits, hacks so on..
2.) Active GM on servers
3.) Ban all bots regularly
4.) With the bot ban increase the xp/sp rate by x2/x3 respectively as well as drop rate x2(sox drop rate should stay the same)
5.) Increase the gold cap on trade windows to 500m but leave the 999,999 on the stall system
6.) Stop fixing patches with patches and have a clean client. (this will fix most of the lag and so systems don't get like... bogged down )
7.) Hold more events with variety, like unique spawning and so on
8.) Stop account selling
9.) Trade system back to pre-euro
10.) Hold "recruiting" events to bring in more new players. Ex: You get 25 silk for each 20 players (from different IP's that register in your name)
11.) Pay more attention to the customers AND members equally (would it kill to be more responsible?)
12.) Actually stop accounts from being sold
13.) Decrease euro's crazy strength by a little and decrease pot delay to 5-7 seconds
14.) Put an on-screen keyboard in the log in screen to prevent keylogging
15.) Fix the illogical Fire Shield usage where you can keep it even if you switch
16.) Get better translators please X_X
17.) Fortress War time sucks, they should make it more orientated towards our end of the globe
18.) Make elixers available at the npcs(Ex: wep/shield at blacksmith, prot at prot seller etc.), this would help a lot regarding price fluctuations
19.) Modify Premium to something like Extra Scrolls, SP quest, free pickup pet and the exp ticket
20.) Modify Devil Grade to something less abbusive to those who can't afford or just don't have the means to buy silk

13.) Decrease euro's crazy strength by a little and decrease pot delay to 5-7 seconds
I agree with nerfing Euro damage but decreasing the pot delay ruins the dependance on others that Euros should have.
14.) Put an on-screen keyboard in the log in screen to prevent keylogging
Just use the on-screen keyboard that is built in to Windows. Or don't download keyloggers.
15.) Fix the illogical Fire Shield usage where you can keep it even if you switch
Fire tree =/= Bicheon tree, Fire Shield is for all to use.

Little things could be fixed. I haven't been able to see my SP at the character select screen since 2006....or ever for that matter.

I also hate when it says server is full, it just closes the client.

Translations are pathetic at best.

I could go on about bots, etc, etc, but those have been mentioned and I choose not to beat a horse that has been dead for 3 years.

I also think they should add another button in the game's system menu to take you back to the character select screen. This used to be accomplished with the 'restart' button, but now that one takes you to the login screen. I miss that... I used to be able to play a character for a bit, "restart", and select a different character... without having to log back in and fight server traffic again... I guess "restart" should continue to go to the login screen, but they need a new button for when you don't want to back all the way out to the login screen.

Why must they force us to authenticate with the server again just to select a different character on the same account?

You'll notice that it has been changed to ST, instead of SP. That counter wouldn't be at 0 if you relogged right after leveling and hadn't spent your stat points.

I think we could fix SRO by paying Gaymax to delete it permanently.
