Guys guys guys? Do the math.

30 servers, average 3000 players per server = 90,000.

Ban 23K, thats 25% of the Concurrent users.THATS JUST GOLD BOTS. That's pretty dang bad. Do you know how many people actually "PLAY" the game? I'd say it's around 10%

BTW, how many of you are getting help via - Forum? Oh yeah, your not and you probably never had. Ever since I was fired from Joymax, I have no sympathy for them and refuse to keep their name. I will bad mouth them until they burn into the ground.

Note: Another employee of Joymax just left. Two more are leaving.

Who left, can you give us the top secrets. Is Pi Story good? It looks like Maple Story.

It doesn't really matter who left. But I have already stated that the DIRECTOR of JOYMAX quit about 2 months ago.

The first day after the 2nd ban, I had to wait until afternoon to get in. Still, the populated "window" to enter the game, widened. Now that it's Saturday, we'll see how easy or not it is to log on weekends.

i had quit sro during that event. what did we have to do anyway? get flags from mobs and give them to So-Ok. i wouldn't be surprised if thats wat we had to do :roll:. and maybe the event was crappy, so they wont even need the director. or maybe the director made the event b4 he left, but as always, JM slowed the event time. so many possibities :shock:.


BTW last night, at 10:00 Eastern U.S time, they banned bots :shock:. in rev6, all the servers were green, Aege and another server were yellow, and and hera was red :P.

Actually, Capture the Flag event was about two teams of players fighting each other to get a flag.

Wow. How is that relevant for the Joymax Director to quit? Do you know what his job is? It's not creating an event.
CTF is an automatically run event. Which means it took time to develop it. Events that are developed for the game that in upwards of 6 months to create. Do you know the process for development? It does not require any interaction with a GM. When was the last event you had that was hosted by a GM? Oh wait, never.

Wow, you dont know what i mean..
Someone said it was a bad thing the director left, "Cause now we wont get new events"..
My point was that the director had nothing to do with events..

Well i didnt feel like reading all of the above posts to see if this question was already asked...so

Is this bot ban over...because after a few days now some of the servers are getting filled with more gold bots and it is getting harder to log in...
So were those the only two bans they will be doing for this major bot ban?

servers turn populated at 5:00PM EST and stay that way for a long time. One more ban outta do it.

@Blood, they already hired someone new: Jun Sun (or something like that), Mary Min pwns the anti-social Korean dude.

I guess that's a good thing. Fresh opinions and stuff, might be why we're getting bot bans now. No more of the same old thinking as before I guess.

Lol. One of the new guild members actually got banned. I find it surprising and funny at the same time since they're only temporarily banned until 2018 :P He confessed that he used some "uploading program" (whatever the hell that means)
