WOW alot happened in iSRO's first year. It's hard to believe it has only been three since it started. So take a moment, log onto the Official Site and say happy birthday and thanks.

That was SRO's best year. It was great back then and I loved the alchemy and wolf update. I loved it to buy a wolf and I still remember in my guild back then, we were trying to find out what the alchemy update exactly was. We were all getting different drops on the mobs we were grinding on. And we discussed all the alchemy-items names. Damn that was the best time I had on SRO.
And when the viet ips got banned, huyfong was screwed, aight?
+2...Not that I'm racially pissed at them or anything, it's just there's a pretty big racial customer base that they could easily make a TSRO. Traffic would go down as well in ISRO, and JM would still make profit (I guess) from having another version targeted at them (TSRO). Just my opinion.

The game would be even more dead in the old servers than it is now. Plus you have to realise most of the nuisances going around pissing people off all day are just kids, and not just Turkish this applies to all. Most see them as ignorant because they don't speak English, why should they? Infact I don't like most of them myself but iSRO is dead without them. Plus the fact if they did make TSRO, next you'd all be crying out for Egyptian SRO etc etc.

Maybe because it's an international game so it's in english ?

IIRC he lived in San Francisco or somewhere like that. Definitely not in Vietnam ;p
But yeah when I first played it was the start of Troy which came at like ... Feb of 06 ? Anyways .. damn those were the days. Job wars in masses .. the memorable owl hooting in jangan and the first run through jangan seeing a Giant Tiger ( Proper wtf moment ).
If Joymax had any sense they would open the servers again but with limitations ie:
Xian-60 Troy-70 Babel-80 etc etc.
Each with their own capped skills / transports and shit. No euro's and no pain. Obviously keeping the original Xian and Troy, but just providing an alternative.
Making a 60/70/80 cap server with either No euro's or no 'XXXXX' would bring back soo many players.

I went to Cambodia and work for awhile. I played SRO on my laptop there, bought couple hundred silk. Then after a few days, BAM! They banned silk buying. Apparently only Cambodian IPs, but i still able play. I had to call my gf in Australia to log in my acc and get silk for me lol.
Damn joymax, what are they doing, don't want money?

euro pretty much ruined the whole system. they are overpowered, only the ones with sox gear and gold are able to stand up to them. olympus back in the day was fun, barely any botting. then the cap was increased. 10x more botters. cap increased again. 100x more botters. chain of events, increasing cap, increasing botters.
Forgot to say..um..happy b-day, sro!...I guess. Anyways, yea, it's getting a bit worse. Why I stay? Cuz no matter how bad it is, it's addictive. Crackroad. I'm only playing anyways until AION or Blade and Soul, or S.U.N. comes out.
