I doubt any of you will believe me but there it is. Ryoko can confirm that during one time we needed notice regarding the problems certain ISP problems users were having I sent a private message on behalf of my husband.
However, I do have some news that may surprise you all. Crayon has accepted a position at another company. He loved the work despite all of your complaining and the insane hours he had to put in (hell I hated that more) but was offered a position in investor relations ( he studied in the investment field and is working towards a CFA ). It was hard for him to leave. He has always wanted to be in the game industry and loved being involved with Silkroad Online and the wonderful and hugely underappreciated team that they have there.
However, an offer came in that was difficult to refuse and so he has moved on. Now that things have been set in motion or already been put into operation that will and have greatly enhanced the experience you all have...hopefully you won't give gargamel as much grief as you gave my husband.
and yes Crayon was a man. I helped with his early gender bending...but GNGWC made all of it moot.
There were times when I was so angry with how stupid and shortsighted many of you are; and when I would tell him about it; he would just grin and say..."remember before you met me, you couldn't see what was really behind the curtain either". And when I would glare at him and tell him that at least I gave out long reasoned out criticisms he said, "It's like this: when you ride a bike, you hate cars. When you ride a car, you are annoyed by bikes. When you drive a bus, cars are the enemy"
Yes I hate it when he goes all mini-me slightly stupid Socratic sometimes.
But he gave a damn and so does the team. When some of you talk about how Joymax might be in cahoots with botmakers...it just hurt the hell out of him. Bewildered and angered him. When you all talked about how damn easy it is to this or that...and where he knew the truth of how it wasn;t..it would just make him laugh insanely one day and depress the hell out him the next.
All of you have cost my husband some hair...and alot of chocolate.
Still he does read over my shoulder time to time and laughs at somethings and sarcastically responds at others.
Oh and he just said that he thought playground bullying and taunting of one person was a thing you did in elementary school. He says if Siprit power did really bot then you simply ban him or just don't acknowledge him..if he didn't then this is simply sad sad sad. A sad reflection of many things (okay this part is my words).
anyways he tells me to tell you that this is not goodbye or even a farewell...but that he now simply a player just like all of you..and will join in on bashing Gargamel for being bald.
Okay he's not. but still.
Just stumbled across this. I thought some ppl might find it interesting.
I'd really like Ryoko to confirm the validity.
Oh, and LMAO @ Spiritpower!
[edit] I know this is very old. But it was mentioned in another thread, so I thought it might clear some confusion if I posted it.

Quality Korean English maybe?
Probably they were talking about the characters rather than the GMs playing the characters. They never identified Crayon's gender. Which I'm sure gave them a laugh but it made all of us look stupid who actually read the notices and kept saying Gargamel was female, after cuch came back from the GNGWC and said he was male.
maybe if they ONCE.. just ONCE really updated somethin which worked fine as soon as it was updated, there wouldnt be so much complaints, but as we all know..joymax is lazy as hell and don't do shit, they know about the botters, they even keep an eye on them, but hey.. why ban the players who pay for ur game to get GT / pet,
dont be stupid nave.. we both know joymax does shit.
Me? stupid? Oh come on, with Freaking noobs spam their forums and BS complaints, who wouldn't lose energy. And why do they don't ban botters that pay? ah... maybe cause its the source of their salary? remember this is a free game almost 60% of the people playing are not buying silk. haven't you think that they are out of funds?
Reminder again. This IS a FREE GAME, they're understaff'ed. And So many people trying to hack this game. So expect that they would mess up with somethings.
Come on.. Before you say stupid make sure you are really intelligent because your just making a fool of yourself.

+1, They don't have the right to Blame JM for their mistakes if they don't BUY silk.
And JM is just a small and fresh company, don't compare it too older and bigger companies like blizzard.

A lot of us have been having hope for over one year.
Thinking one day they will get their act together.
Spending silk and assuming that they will put it to good use.
Assuming GMs will be competent and professional, and walk the walk instead of just talking the talk.
Other reasons but I'm not going to spend 30 minutes writing everytime JN or GM fails, doesn't do what they say, or makes fools out of themseles all together.
It's not like SRO was launched just a month ago and we haven't had a good chance to see how they handle things. iSRO's been around for well over a year, and the item mall is approaching a year. We have every right to be upset.
