The solution to the crowded servers

Post by curixq »

Some years ago I played knightonline but pfft it I didn't like it. BUT they have a good server system.
It is simple, instea of one server Athens, Sparta, etc etc, why can't you make 3 of them? Like: Athens1 Athens2 Athens3 and Sparta1 Sparta2 Sparta3 (and the other servers)
The people who made an character on the Athens server should be able to play also with the same character on the other Athens server. (and talk with their friends and guild on the other 2 "servers)
The number of players then is divided into 3... so less people.

That's all I want to say.

Wouldnt work, expect if you made different servers for different things.

athens1: grinding
athens2: jobbing
athens3: capefights

Or something like that, otherwise almost all people would still go to one server. What fun is there to be in a guild and be devided over different servers? Everybody will go to one server anyways. I would follow most of my guildies, all our union guilds would come, same will happen with other guild and unions. Wich means crowded server FTW.

Why do you think they are launching new servers? Besides for the extra moneyz.

I like the game to be put into one server each. There are some issues with 3 different servers, one for each thing. Like, if someone kses me, I can't taunt them to try and kill me or pvp me, or w/e. I can't instantly log off the grinding server and go into pvp/jobbing, I would probably have to sit and wait for one of the millions of bots to log off.

It would be a better idea to increase server's maximum capacity, and to actually turn on gamegaurd. I hear that kSRO won't even turn on if there are edits to the pk2 files, or if there is a bot program running. And it has the same gamegaurd thing going, maybe thats the reason we have so many bots.

Did you know the word "Gullible" isn't in the dictionary? :roll:

And fyi, there's a big difference between "I read it in the korean news" and "I read it on a forum that's predominately 12-16 yr olds".

Better solutions... I think...

- Ban all bots.
- Restrict char levels for stalling in town.
- Limit the number of connections from same IP.
- Introduce auction house to reduce afk stall chars.

Why is the second idea terrible? Why should you need to have the ability to stall at lvl 1? It doesn't take very long at all to get to level 5 or even 10. So if you create a character and get a really nice drop at lvl 2 (I doubt it) then just wait a day or so until you get to lvl 10 and stall that drop.

Level 1 characters really don't need to be stalling at all. There's no real reason that I can see.

As for limiting the number of connections from the same IP, I agree they should not do that. That would really limit places like Internet cafes and Universities and the like.

Okay, I agree the 3rd idea was bad... I haven't thought about internet cafes and universities and stuffs.

and to clarify the 2nd idea I meant for example in order to stall in say Hotan,
the stall character has to be say level 50 or higher.
Then, you won't see all those level 1 char stalls packing every inch in Hotan.

that would also Eradicate clientless farming due to the program being on a server 1 server same IP i think

1 server can carry like 50 bots at a time

Yes but that's not really a solution to the bot problem (I know that's not what this thread's about). Solve that problem by preventing them from logging in, not by blocking groups of IPs that DO log in clientless.

If you block multiple logins from the same IP, you're potentially preventing a LOT of silk-buying legit players who happen to be at universities or internet cafes or the like.... all in the name of blocking some bots who will just change their IP.
