For everyone who says i cannot get in or is there a problem please read this for your answer
Silkroad is a MMORPG (Massive Multiplayer Online Role Play Game) Now im trying to make the word Massive stand out here
The servers tend to be always full on isro as its the most used out of all the silkroads this means the servers Max capacity will be met most days even when not in peak hour
When it says Cannot Connect Due To Server Trafic it literally means Were full and When it disconnects you it is screaming Were full at you
It wil not help to rank on any forum and eventually members are going to get very edgy with the many people saying is there a problem i cant get in and so on it does not help anyone
Yes we all have had the same problems iv spend hours some days trying to connect and sometimes even giving up
The only real thing you can do is keep trying or come back later on the night where maybe there will be room and servers become populated or quit silkroad if you do not have the patients to log in you wil most likely have the patients it takes to get Cap.

"Silk Road Online has had over 2-million players register an account since it launched on March 14th of this year. Of those players, Joymax is uncertain how many actually play, but the global version of the game requires 11 servers, each with roughly three to four thousand active players at peek hours."
Probably will explain why all the Servers are full
P.s That quote was taken on September 28, 2006 thus the 11 servers... Silkroad has 2,344,411 registered users as of 27/10/06 06:53pm -7GMT
Thanks Keyjizzle
Update Lag
This is the worse kind of lag often been up to or over 1minute NO MATTER your isp service provider
The Lag is caused by simple bad planning of there services and there update server is interwinded with the game play servers but it is cause by 1000's of people downloading at once
This lag is usually only around for a day but can last longer depending on the time, date and whats going on around the world i.e. chrismas and thing like that meaning not a lot of people should be on thus many wil download a day after this.
Please bare with this no matter what
?????? Error
The well know ????? Error is a glitch in the games graphics or often your graphics card too this cannot be helped and will happen regualarly especially in donwhang where there is an error in the town with the game graphics that causes the ???? error
There is nothing you can do about this error so live with it, it is tuff luck that it catches you in peak time
No Start Button Recent Event Problem for those who stil have it
There is no start button due to demand the server cannot cope.
But if you want to get the update keep exiting and opening sro until you get it but be warned the servers wil be laggy and it may be best just to wait
This Weeks Event and some extra info

not very easy to log in(As not explained in Master_wongs sticky).
Yeah its a mmorpg, but i've never known one have traffic problems like this before. The fact its free is why there is problems. It means:
1) Its popular with people who don't want to pay a monthly subscription
2) Its popular with people who can't pay a monthly sub. ( no credit card/not old enough to own one)
3) Being free means you can flout the rules without worrying about loosing real money and getting banned. ie botters / cheaters / scammers / ccf'ers.
If need be rant in this thread atleast people expect it here
