OK... Interesting. Now i dont know if these are Alias's or if indeed these are new GM's

So current GM list
[GM]Crayon
[GM]Gargamel
[GM]Pizza
[GM]IceMilk
[GM]hanpooh
[GM]Mint

6 for 14... Not too bad

I hope they will recruit 4 more GM and do their work properly. No point if there are a lot of GM but none works properly

More GM's are good, but its not going to make much of a difference if they're just going to offset it with more servers.

Yeah was wondering if they are just aliases too, or if it's a result of Joymax looking for new GMs.

Anyway if it is the later, there will probably be more faces around seeing as Joymax is still showing the recruitment ads on their website.

:D

just speculation on my part, but i've always figured it's because they don't wanna seem like they're trying to be something they're not. they have simple names that can't be mistaken for player names, and they're easy to remember and recognize. just my perspective.

as far as i am aware these are new GM's, they have a recruitment page on the main site, if you didnt notice, if you live in or around Seoul go getcher ass a job and quit complaining! ;)

I'd so go for it except I highly doubt they would let me work from home xP

So I guess they do use names w/o [GM] in them, or other people.

i think Drew meant that GM's occasionally ask questions like :

"Are you experiencing heavy lag? Send yes or no to my stand in honddd"

and meant that GM's use non-gm chars aswell :)


However i think you are wrong, i think "honddd" in this case is just a program collecting the amount of "yes/no" answers sent by PM, as in not being an actual person playing a char :p i doubt Joymax would leave some poor worker to receive thousands of Yes/No and the usual "Im a noob i must spam them" and make out the differences ;)

Yeah on Sparta he did, on Tibet he has asked people to PM various other names, so i guess they have a program running that counts all "yes" and all "no" PM's to that name, in order to put up statistics over at JM HQ.

Good point about the stand-in, never thought it'd be a bot =D

Sounds reasonable, good thinking!

You all have it wrong!!

If a GM wanted the "COOLEST" name on SRO
they would have chosen [GM]DeaDSwarMPWNZJ00ALL

And then i would get global respect, And then i'd be
in the riches and glory.

:roll: :roll: :roll:
