I have chosen the legit way to play, but I don't like grinding, so I use the taxi method a lot.. The bad part is that people scam like hell, they don't care about you, they only care about the 500k they get for the penon party they promised, so I got a question, is it possible for joymax to make a taxi system?

I don't want anything to be changed, just a new added feature would be fine.. It should work like the taximeter system in the real world..

You make the taxi, and want 500k for 1 hour in the taxi... 1 hour is 3600 seconds 500.000 divided with 3600 is 138.88889 per second.. so if the taxi is quit or u get banned, you only automatically pay for the seconds spent there and for nothing else..

Getting scammed all the time makes people using bots, they trust only themselves..

So I made a long story short..

The only thing JM thinks about is cash.
Do they earn cash with this idea?
Hmmmzzz, no.
Sorry.

you are right

god i hope they don't make a taxi system

why is that ? Is MUCH better that using BOT

its not very far off from botting, making a taxi system will only put the nails in the coffin to the almost dead party system, they need to make taxi not possible to fix the game

Taxi was introduced with the academy system in fact...

taxi was a result of the party mob introduction...

If you don't like grinding, SRO isn't for you.

100% agree, i still rather see SRO without taxi and bots ...
i mean, when i started sro i wanted to find out how alchemy worked to make some money, now all new "players" know is "TAXII PLSSSSSSS and 10k PLSS" i mean honestly x__X
people farming almost 2 mil sp in 1-1.5 months ^^ aint cool at all if you ask me

10k plssss is nothing new, but it makes being a high lvl wiz annoying to go around conducting business or anything out side of hotan cause i get asked to taxi almost every time i'm in sam or const, hell i'm so far behind with 100 cap soon not sure i can count 70 as high lvl any more. If i hold my harp i get less people bugging me though.

haha yea, its a plain pain in the ass ^^
Friend of mine had a nice som+7 staff, her grant name was NO_TAXI!! but yea, still got spammed everywhere she went T_T if she had the staff equipped

if the just bann the gold bots it will be ok and the game will be fulled with normal people

Eh no, not really

I have already come to the conclusion that there are no "Normal" people that play sro. I strongly beleive we are mentally insane.

Nah, I'm just feeling like an "antiquity" with my refusal to use bots. But as you all know antiquities are rare and admired, so be proud of the fact that you don't need a computer help to level you up.

The problems are the players that use bots. Some were legit for a very long time and they act as mature humans. But most servers are crowded with 10 year old kiddos with the brains of a 3 months old baby and only the fast levelling is important even if they have to use bots, loaders, scripts, hacks and scams for acheiving that goal. Those players have an attitude against all players and more particularly non bots of "gtfo you don't have my level, muhahahahahaha".

But but .... its a fun game ^^ just has a messd up comunity

how can you afford 500k/hour of taxi if you dont like to grind? Where are you getting your gold from?

elements, trades etc...

Grinding with a 9 gap as euro is almost impossible because you can only equip stuff (excepted weapon and jewels) of your mastery level. Some players in my guild use taxis while they are in 9 gap and do 5* trades with the guild to have the gold for paying the taxis.
