[SD]Master_Wong · Post by **[SD]Master_Wong** » Thu Feb 01, 2007 2:28 am

Iv been speaking with morningdew on a regular basis recently and have decided to ask for a Q &A

What i need is 10 worth while questions not over the top to ask him and get answered

Try not to post silly questions but keep in mind il choose the 10 Questions to ask

This is solely on behalf of SilkRoadForums so you wont find this information anywhere else

Also we know Silkroad has bots and i know not sure about others that jm is dealing with them so.

NO BOT related questions or lag

And please browse the main site notices and forum some of the questions i can answer or another member of this forum

1:- Are Skills going to be edited to cover the new level cap and furture level caps?
2:- What updates are coming in the near future for us to look forward to?
3:- Have you ever played silkroad or another MMORPG before you were hired by joymax?
4:- Do you plan to make more regular and exiteing events like co versions of silkroad hold on a regular basis?
5:- Will there be another GnG Competition and if so will it be hosted in more areas such as the UK?
6:- Have you managed to hire more gms and other staff to assist you from the campaign on your home page?
7:- Can you give us a hint of the final level cap and will the mastery levels remain at 300?
8:- Can you tell us about your self when not at work and reviel some of the mystery?
9:- What measures are in place to deal with bots and other people who abuse the system?
10:- Is there any plan to add an auction house system to help reduce crowded servers due to stalling players?

1. I am interested in being a part-time GM, is it possible? If yes, how can one get started.

Draquish · Post by **Draquish** » Thu Feb 01, 2007 2:33 am

Do you feel that Joymax is understaffed, under-represented, and over-worked in its NA Headquarters?

Korea. So you can interact directly with other GMs.

Has there been any progress in finding new staff over in Korea?

Why doesn't JM ban bots!?!?!ZOMG!?!111

JK JK!!

uhh...

1)What made you want to work for JM and SRO in particular?
2)Did you play SRO for a while before being employed?
3)DAMMIT! I forgot my #3!! :banghead:

Don't know if these questions have been answered already. Oh well.

Nave47 · Post by **Nave47** » Thu Feb 01, 2007 2:50 am

Heres my Question :

Are you going to expand the SRO franchise by selling server licensing(I dunno what its called) Like in VietSRO , ThaiSRO. To lessen the people in ISRO.

Doppleganger · Post by **Doppleganger** » Thu Feb 01, 2007 2:58 am

Are they going to find a solution to the "Secret Question" problem that users are having?

(Lots of people cant remember there secret question when they first started playing silkroad and are unable to change there password)

I think this is a great question to ask.

**I am not one of these people but suks for those people :cry:

They need to help them, so they feel more secure while playing :wink:

Why cant you rez a 80?

IguanaRampage · Post by **IguanaRampage** » Thu Feb 01, 2007 3:09 am

Will you sell SRO to International Yahoo!?

nycxfool · Post by **nycxfool** » Thu Feb 01, 2007 3:12 am

Will GMs appear ingame more frequently (if ever)? What is joymax's current status in the hiring of new GMs?

Gwai_lo · Post by **Gwai_lo** » Thu Feb 01, 2007 3:14 am

When are the highly anticipated job updates and ignore features going to be implemented?

Are there plans to allows us to use uppercase and special characters in our passwords?

Is there going to be a feature that allows users to change their secret question?

Why doesn't iSRO get events as often and as good as the other versions?

I know you said no questions about bots, but that's one of the biggest things on people's minds. I think it's a fair question to ask as long as it's asked in a non-condescending way. So my bot question is...

Why does it appear that bug reports that consistently name the same players over and over as bot users are ignored?

MastaChiefX · Post by **MastaChiefX** » Thu Feb 01, 2007 3:21 am

I know she answered this already, but.

You opened a plethora of server during the holiday season, why have you waited so long to open pacifc?

NuclearSilo · Post by **NuclearSilo** » Thu Feb 01, 2007 3:38 am

My question : why dont they recruit some ingame player as GM's assistant to ease their job?

Preditor · Post by **Preditor** » Thu Feb 01, 2007 3:59 am

1) How did you come to work for JM?

2) Do you or any of the Staff members in the NA office have personal SRO characters? (IE, characters without admin powers)

3) Have you every played any onther MMORPG's? If so, wich?

4) What would be something you personally would like to see added to silkroad (Other then more NA staff)?

5) Any hints on what the next major update will be, or when it will be?

This is a question that has caused alot of disscusion in every silkroad fansite I've seen (that allow it) as well as the Caravan forum on the official site....

6) What is Joymax's stance on one star popping, Allowed, or Exploit? (We've all read the official post, but many folks try to argue that it can be read however one wants)

+1

7. Is the 300 mastery lvl cap being raised anytime soon?

IguanaRampage · Post by **IguanaRampage** » Thu Feb 01, 2007 5:34 am

the answer for that is "No" user. She has already stated that plainly. Gargarmel has also confirmed there is no plan for that at this moment in time.
