it lacks so much features that you couldn't even consider the present version to be a full alpha version, but rather still being a game in the making because there's still so much to be done!

yeah a beta to me :banghead:

the thing is, SRO can't go p2p. Look at the big successes of P2P games. WOW and EQ2 for example are completly different games. Rarily does anyone get hacked (as in, hacked where fault lies with the company). GMs ban bots (because there are more), and the gameplay is just on opposite ends. P2P games are raid games, where leveling takes a week or two. SRO is a grind game, why pay to grind >_<... and then it would cost money to buy a gold ticket again, to level a little faster? >_> i dont get it.

lol, thats exactly why it's f2p because if it was p2p it just wouldnt make sense. And the world as we know it would come to a screeching halt.

I know ideal will work. But come on. Its like saying if we all boycot gas we can force the prices lower. Its just not going to happen. I know boycots have worked thur out history but this is just a game. SRO has beat that nasty little problem that most MMO's suffer from. No player base and with a free game your always going to have a playerbase. *Cough* *Cough* Runescape.

Those who like to take a break from SRO. http://www.playinfinity.net/ Beta is going live today for all. LOL should be.. They are having trouble launching. Ohh yea.... INC CCF POSTS!


I know it helps speak your mind. If it makes you feel better..


BOYCOT SILK EVERYONE! :)
