I am a real active player currently at work. There are others working/at school/ w/e... So you're wrong. And if you are a botter and there is no new bot nothing stops you from playing anyway so your logic fails. Plus it was posted almost mot a mot before.

ya i am at work as well.. there are not many stallers(they take a lot of the room) and the gold bots have not been updated it seems. so i would say your almost right with the numbers. i mean you need to add more for people at work or school and people still sleeping or just not on yes.. but the fact is there is no need for all them servers and there are not really many real players on the server.. the numbers would be lower if this was not such a big update and the bots could not get in..

this shows how bad the bot problem is.. after any other update the servers would be packed with bots a hour after it is open.
as i look right now redsea has the highest amount of people logged on at 1400

this is what the servers would be like if there were no bots.

Well i don't know how long you've been playing this game, but after inspection the servers would go red within the hour, so right now we have an approximation of how many players are actually on each server. Also My title says active players not legit, this means excluding gold bots and people using multiclients, so i don't know how "if you are a botter and there is no new bot nothing stops you from playing anyway so your logic fails" comes from but let me tell you something, your post is full of fail, lol ! :banghead:

why do some servers have a 0% chance to get in if there is hardly any on?

It's not a BAD indicator, but yes, some of us need to go to work. I logged on very early just to check out the new client. Already disliking it. I crashed in Hotan six times before I figured out I had to reduce my graphics to low.

I do like the new academy chat right on the left side (by union chat). For some reason those windows aren't labeled as such yet, just all 0's.

oops, sorry, went a little offtopic there...oooh, RedSea has the most people logged on and Olympus isn't far behind.

Also, time zones play a factor, although I'm not sure how much. But it would be great to have a server with only 1500-2000 people on it! Hotan wouldn't lag...hehe

I guess since the RevBots aren't online, they can't meassure the PoC.

1)3 years.
2)Venus is NEVER full 1h after inspection. And not only Venus.
3)You have an approximation about how many players get the update at a convinient time/ have decided to stay up all night/ ....
4)What is the definition of an active player to you? Because for me it is someone that plays actively. Not counting GB and Botters.
5)What when you are a botter and no new bot is out you will wait for the bot to come out? While all you have to do is dl the normal version of the game and try it out/ activate your Premium to be safe / Try to be the first one to kill the new unique.
YOUR logic still fails even if my "post is full of fail, lol!"

I would say lets wait in till 6pm-9pm +1GMT.

Germans got out of school now so the number should go up in the next few hours.
In 1 hour shift ends for some of the workers in germany.

2) Like i said, the servers go RED on rev6 not full within the hr
3) Even now, the numbers are still close to what i posted of the rev6 log
4) i would count anyone who logs on the game 3+ times a week an active player, botter or not
5) Incase you don't know, just cause your a botter, doesn't mean your not ACTIVE, i think you ought to relies that being active, and being a botter is two different things. Like i already said, the title is ACTIVE players not LEGET players.

But the main thing is, i don't know why you would say my "logic" fail, maybe you should tell me your definition of logic. I simply posted this to show people how the server looks few hours after inspection where there are no bots/multiclient loaders, this is no math problem or some theory that i've worked out on how many EXACT active players exist on silkroad and what we all must go by.

I think you should take a chill pill and calm down

Have to agree with you. How many people are at work? How many at school?

How many people just are sleeping, how many bot and don't want to play Chin Tomb, etc, etc

Too many variables. It's nice to look at and see the green, sure. But I can't say it's even close to an accurate reflection of what SRO would look like without goldbots, spambots, or regular player bots. It is what it is...a nice screenshot of low server traffic.

OP:I thank you for your post though.

W/e I am done with that thread. You are right there are only 1000 active players in Venus. That is totally true 2 full unions and 3 not unioned guilds does go for around 1000 players so it is realistic. GG you showed us all the truth....

Because the screenshot shows 1000 players on venus. and the Confederation of Venus has around 1000 players, more or less active. So I am not saying anything but this is NOT A REALISTIC FIGURE. It has nothing to do with legits, bots or what ever.

calm down man, nowhere does any1 say a thng abt Venus. Even the op says the post isnt an actual reflection of active legits and just a fun SS of servers a little after the update.

no need to take it personally

"Hours after update and that's how many people are on when there are no bots/tools for multi client yet"

Yes, people who may be botters, but just CANNOT BOT yet.

edit: the point I see may not be the point s/he is making.

And the point I see is that without spambots or goldbots (only players, whether or not they are botters or legits) the server population is much lower. Sure it is. But it's tough to qualify how many people are still NOT online...

I am the one that is unable to communicate? Do I have some kind of psycological disorder that makes me understand all I type but people do not understand it?

I am not taking it personally, ALL I am saying has NOTHING to do with Venus, Venus is just an example that I can be sure of. Let me repeat myself: THIS SCREENSHOT DOES NOT REPRESENT THE NUMBER OF ACTIVE PLAYERS ON THE SERVERS AS SUGGESTED BY THE TOPIC STARTER.

REally want takes up so much space is 1 guy that bots that then has like 8 gold bots running thats basically 8x the space he should be taking up. Then we have the hundreds of gold bots that are not on right now.

1. Release a new installer.
2. Bots get updated for it in advance.
3. JoyMax makes an extra update for the sro_client.exe
4. Bots are useless till updated.

They do know how to stop boters, they just have to spend more time on it.
