Its a major problem for most people.
Its not a matter of not having time to grind, people just either
a. get bored easily and change characters
b. quit and when they come back start again
c. change servers due to reasons involving friends etc
d. Decide to make a lot of characters to test out different build and see which one they will pursue in the future.
Gratz on hitting lvl 40 as well and best luck to you in the future.

If your problem is a then you need to find your motivation to play the game. This game can be very fun but each person is going to have their own experiences and own reasons to play.
The only advice i can offer to someone in your kind of situation is to find yourself a good union or guild. Sure friends aren't something you can "buy" in this game, but for me they have become a major motivation to play the game. I am currently playing on 2 servers. 1 of the servers is my old "main" server, in it i have an awesome guild and a great union in which i have a lot of great friends. They are the reason i continue to play this game, to talk to them and just have some fun with them.
The other server i only recently moved to. I moved there because my best in game friend decided to move their as well, his reasons behind his decision are not relevant. I had decided to follow him in his server change as i really do enjoy playing with him, he is my original motivation to continue playing sro.
But this kind of thing might not be the answer for you. If not, then i wish you the best of luck finding your motivation to play the game. If not, remember that everything isn't about what level you do achieve.

I don't understand how some of you claim you've been playing for over a year and just barely make level 40.
That makes no sense to me.
During 60 Cap there was no item mall, no Gold Ticket.
Aege server opened around end of October. By December Aege had a level 56 Ice Blader, who was for sure Legit, Voodoo.
By end of January Aege had a LeveL 60 Glaive, Fully Farmed.
Fujishiro had 60 Heuksal, 60 Ice, 60 Fire, and 60 Light.
Now Fujishiro played hardcore everyday, insane hours. But if you can get from 1-60 in 4 months and be fully farmed.
I don't understand how it takes anyone a year to get to level 40.
Even if you grinded only 2-3 hours a day, in 1 year you would be around level 70.

During 60cap you could easilly connect to the servers and grind without bots. Now, it's pure pain to grind surrounded and beying ks'd by bots. Now this game just killing player morally (or w/e you speel that)

congratz dude. I've been playing for a year and my main is only lvl 43 lol (of course I semi-farmed and gapped leveled). I also had many, many hiatuses. Even when I was playing hardcore most of the time I was goofing off or trying to make money.

He probably just has a life unlike alot of us here  J/k, but seriously how the heck could it take you a year to reach that? Or are you lying to sound legit?
