Not true.

I think bots will find ways around this. Using proxy you could easily bypass the error. And some proxies are free to use, but probably not the most reliable tho. And not sure how safe it is to use proxy to login in SRO.

But in the end, i bet this will be another thing that will affect more legits than botters. I was used to do little lan with 2 real life friends at my house and play SRO (they both quit now hehe -_-), guess I could not do that anymore.

And i find it funny that so far the country blocked dont have their own version of SRO, I wonder if they will block Asia countries as well?

Imo they do not even do this to prevent gold bots. They limit 2 clients per IP because they know the players botters who run their own party and/or gold bots do not spend silk for more than 1-2 accounts. So by limiting clients to 2, they get rid of the useless clients/accounts for them.

I hope we at least get to keep low pop in servers and easy login.

Pretty much this. I believe the community would have so many interesting ideas, if only there was someone to listen to them.

u can use proxies to bypass it for now but if they extend it to ALL countries, that'd mean that all the proxies would be blocked as well because they must originate from some country.... but im sure there are enough proxies on programs like hotspot to suffice... but why would u need to connect mor ethen 1 char anyway?

All of Europe has been contaminated by the IP limit plague.. But it's still easy to bypass, for the more motivated players.
And there are lots of legit reasons to need more than 2 ips, such as stalling, or just having several pple play in the same house or internet cafe..

ip restriction is only for one ip. ip-adresses are usually not shared onto different computers in the same house, so it only blocks multiple connection attempts from the same computer. it is impossible to bypass it, but they can improvise ^_^ using other ways.

Agreed with the ip limit, the drawbacks are sooo minor.

as for stalling, er, dimension holes? Anything else you can't put in consignment, you still have to stall.

Well, i beg to differ.. I guess yall never sold anything you might want to negociate the price of, or want to display an item over 1b while waiting for offers.. And i guess nobody lives in a house or building where pple share the same wifi connection..Or ever went to a netcafe where more than 2 pple wanted to play the same game. Not to mention facilitating legitimate exchanges or trades between players..

Still 2 Chars is enough for all that Stalling or whatever, For the poeple that have shared connection's to bad. In the end it will be worth it

IceCrash, your reply only indicates one thing, that you are a complete idiot.. And i don't just mean like someone making idiotic comments, which would be ok by me, but i mean like you are an actual retard. Please do everyone a favor, keep your moronic comments to yourself, or to the nurses that no doubt feed you xanax for your anger issues and low frontal lobe development.

wrong...I'm guessing you have a wireless router at your place if you think that. You see a different IP on all the computers connected to the router, however that is your INTERNAL ip address, valid only in the network. When your router sends a request on the internet it always uses your EXTERNAL ip which is the ip given to you by your ISP. So when 2 or more computers connect with sro they are using the same IP.

No really, why do you need more than 2 chars? Especially now. One to grind with and one to stall with lol. Unless you got 4 arms and are able to control 2 chars at once o.O

thing is, the comparison between people that have families playing and botters abusing the system is HUGE, probly like, in each group of 5k chars there's 1 family that plays sro together under the same ip or whatever... so...


GG

it's such a big shame that sro's cap is ridiculously huge, i'd be so playing right now if it wasnt

I kind of disagree here, I like it that sro has such a huge cap, what i don't like is the high number of ppl capped and the incredibly high number of people botting/plvling to get to cap...makes the game lifeless, luckily its better now but the situation is still mostly the same. People have spent so much time botting plvling that I doubt if most of them even remember that mmorpg's are supposed to be about more than just reaching cap to pvp...

you must have a really poor isp then, besides most isps don't install routers. atleast that's how it's done here. My isp has some nice arangements with RIPE though
