So you're saying you are incapable of conducting a rational discussion?

not exactly ... it's joymax ... for their inability to fix the bot situation.
Someone keeps stealing the banhammer. It's not their fault.

It's a game; some people want to be 80. Some people CAN'T grind to 80 becuase of commitements. Who are YOU to decide that they should NEVER be 80. If they have the money, they can buy an account or bot. It doesn't matter. In the end...it's a VIDEO-GAME. If you're that worked up over a game...there's something wrong with YOU. If you don't like bots, do as the quote above said, start a crusade. If you enjoy the game, STFU and enjoy it. Just becuase you lose in pvp against a fully farmed 80, or see a euro char who is already 72+, who cares, yeah it was powerleveled, most likely, but...they're having fun. You have fun too.

Joymax supports powerleveling...Gold bot companies do it in Ksro, Joymax (becuase of the current system) doesn't care about bots. Apart form the "mass bannings" right before euro, there have been no bot bans...in a long time.

Complaining about not being able to log in? Buy a premium.

Don't want to bot but want to level fast? Get a GT, SP ticket, premium, etc.

Want to do more damage than a botter? Get a cape, gdf, 20% damage reduc. scrolls, and damage increase scrolls...

Choose your priorities...and play how you like.

In short, Don't whine if you aren't spending $$$.

But you can't avoid being annoyed by Overpriced Items because of Gold Buying.. Which SUCKS big time.

we come onto sro to get away from reality, and if someone's ..... sro up, then sro's not much better.

hard to believe how can any one not care ... when bots around you KS your mobs and pick your drops.

in general, there are only 2 groups of players in sro, the botters and the non-botters. those that appear indifferent to the bot situations, in reality belongs to either 1 of the 2 groups. there is hardly ever, or never, a 3rd group.

Then the word "bot" became a bad word. Calling someone a botter would get your thread locked, post deleted, etc. Fair enough, cause SRF has traditionally always been a rather carebear, legit forum.

But I have noticed that the issue with the word "bot" seems to have also extended to the word "legit". Are there no longer legit players? Have they become so rare that no one believes ANYONE is legit anymore? Has the community gotten so jaded?

If I were new to the game and came to SRF to ask what "legit" guild I should join on my server, my thread would most likely get locked or deleted. I think this is a wrong turn for SRF. Encouraging legit guilds to stay that way and be proud of their legit status is impossible if you arent allowed to claim it to be true where someone can read it, right?

Just asnwering your question as to WHY we lock these threads. Yes we ARE a legit forum but we don't lock threads with bot/legit discussion because we're sick & tired of seeing it or we want to screen out every bad information the the safety of your kiddos eyes.

We lock it because it will and it does, over time, turn into accusations wars, flames, and ugly shits. And we don't want your in-game drama taken into SRF.

And of course we always come across few hypocrites who claim they are legit *god damn so proud of it* and end up on the official banned list. I'm sure we all know who we're talking about, NB.

Now let me explain WHY I'm going to lock your thread now. If you have questions, suggestions and comments about how SRF is administered and why we make the decision we make, you may and you should PM SuicideGrl or one of the Mods and not make a public rant about it.

You've been here long enough, you know the rules. Thread locked.
