From what I understand, it's not that Joymax has to trust a GM 1,000% in order to hire them. One of the requirements of being a GM is you have to live in, or relocate to, Seoul, Korea. They have this requirement because you need to be on Joymax's internal network in order to be "trusted" to have GM powers. They don't want to let GMs connect to their network from external networks. This is a GOOD thing. There are plenty of security issues to consider in allowing remote access to information systems.

Now if Joymax came up with some sort of secure, encrypted, remote VPN solution, perhaps that would help solve that problem. There are companies, including the one I work for, that provide hardware (FIPS 140-2 compliant in the US) to do that. I'm sure there's plenty of well qualified people that could do the work of a GM, but they just don't live in Korea, so those individuals do not currently have the means to securely connect into Joymax's network to do the job.

That's my take on what morningdew's people said anyway.

The new GMs you see on that list are all the ones that are currently located in the San Jose office. Relocating to Korea is not a requirement. I know tihs because Pred/silkypico is one of them and he is in the CA office. So is morningdew, or rather, the several ppl who use that forum account.

Yes, I forgot about the San Jose office. I know at one point, relocation to Korea was a requirement. It said so in the ad on their main page on the website a while back. It was an image something like "think you can do better?" I believe the San Jose office opened after that if I'm not mistaken.

So I guess you'd have to either live in Seoul or San Jose (or commute). There should be plenty of people available that fit that requirement, so I don't know what the difficulty is in hiring GMs.

WOW, the person who wrote this sounds like a b1tch if you ask me. Instead of correcting his translation, he/she starts dissing him about how Ideaman cant speak korean and they can....wtf??




They seem more stuck up then Paris Hilton.

I am Korean and Korean is my first language

We dont care. Fix your game.

but if you are going to copy and paste an official newspaper article, and translate it, do it correctly.

We dont care. Fix your game.

If you are going to blame someone using some kind of proof, you better have all the information correctly. Not just some mistranslated article that you post, and put some numbers in it and claim it as a correct translation.

I find it very hard to believe Joymax made well over 1 billion dollars from players.

That would mean a million players had spent $1000 dollars on the game.

The numbers are just too big, I'm sure they don't live in poverty but 1bill is just too much

I don't believe it either because I mean c'mon 1 billion lol. But I do believe ALOT more than ksro obviosuly. Think of sponsers too .. the WNGCW or whatever they were called. And stuff like that all makes money ya know.

Well didn't they say that the original article said NOTHING about iSRO revenue? I believe they even said the article made no mention about "1 billion" anything. Did I read that right? In that case, they weren't saying iSRO made 1 billion.

[TwelveEleven]

And i doubt it would be 1 billion, even if it was, it wouldn't be profit..

the president of JM is probably on the phone making a deal with some gold sites, which they would never dream of doing it in ksro.
