This sounds interesting. I've been waiting for ever for a private server with decent rates and europeans. I'd like to join, but I've got some questions before.

- My final school exams are about three weeks from now, so I'm really not looking for something that might turn out frustrating. Is the leveling easy (euro-wise) or is it a grindfst, as usual?
- I did not read -obviously!- all the 52 pages so far, but I checked some random pages at random moments and in every each of them you guys talked about crash, DC, lag, bots, etc..the same problmes every server faces. Is it any better now or should I keep waiting a bit ('bout early July, when I'm done with exams) for the game to be slightly more playable?
- Is it easy to login?

I don't think I've got anymore to ask now, so thanks in advance if you're kind to reply. :sohappy:

The leveling is obviously very easy. I mean, hey, it's 15x rates. Soloing is fast, and partying it insane!

As of to the server stability. It's not stable at all right now. A few days ago some lag started and it just got worse and worse. However, that's what we can expect from a beta staged game. So yeah, if you don't like frustration, you should come back in a month or two.
However, the advantage of starting now is that you'll probably be near the cap in a month.

And no, the login is not easy. It might help when they start their second server, but no matter what there will always be traffic, as long as the servers are free to play on.

Does anyone know if it's actually possible to login when the server is populated, but is acting like it's full?

I think the login server is off, but still showing as online.

Requesting user confirmation: nothing happens.
Any1 got the same?

Yes, I'm pretty sure it's impossible to log in.
SRStats is showing that 842 people are on the server for the last 1h30m. Guessing it won't come back for a couple of hours, since when something happens to the sever at this time it always takes a while to get fixed. :soosad:

So people, we now have Fortress so we need an active guild and union. For such, we've come to the agreement that in 3 days from now, who ever isn't Lv60 will have to move to the second PornFlakes. Once the 3 days are over, we will set a new goal.

We do want a guild with SRF'ers, we want our guild to have good people in it, fun people, people we know and can rely on. But we can't afford to let those who are inactive stay that way just because they belong to SRF; if we do that, we allow for chances of loss to increase.

On the 11th we will be defending the Fortress from many unions/guilds, so we really need to be at our best.

Second guild is already in Union, up and running, so there should be no problem for the lowers to join there

Gameserver is down that is why you don't get a response from requesting user confirmation. Also the reason that 842 is showing up is because that was the last number that the login server received from the gameserver before it crashed.

Thank you for this. That's pretty much what I needed to hear.

My frustration does not come from the slow leveling, it's just that I need to revise A LOT of stuff, so I wanted to play this game just a bit in the evenings for chilling and not wasting hours logging in or banging my head on the desk because I get dc'd every other minute.

I guess I'll come back in a month or so, then. Hope the servers will be more stable by then.

See ya and keep it going. :sohappy:

Thanks, this is in no way an attempt to exclude anyone, that is not the point of the action we'll take. We simply need to be at our best game.
Anyone who is under 60 will join the second PornFlakes, as I already said, so they won't be left out

There has been no discussion about that yet. Current objective is to get both guilds full of active players, rest will be determined later on...

cpinney · **Posted:** Sun May 29, 2011 10:22 pm

just have it everyone below the 60 mark gets moved down to second guild everyone in the second guild that is 60+ has the option to get moved up if they wish to.

i dont like the whole idea myself, but that is what i suggest.

Yeah, but then the second PornFlakes guild will never get strong.

cpinney · **Posted:** Sun May 29, 2011 10:32 pm

yeah it will over time there is only 50 spots in pornflakes so there always will be high levels that are in pf2, plus just leveling over time will raise everyones level so it will be.

marijnz0r · **Posted:** Sun May 29, 2011 11:05 pm

That's actually a great idea. Motivation for people who are near the level that has to be reached. Myself, I'm level 57 now I guess.
Would like to stay in PF1, so it's a stimulation for me to get to 60 fast.
The problem is, that I can't login, so maybe it's a bit unrealistic to set the timer at 3 days, because nobody has the time to level up now.
Also, the exchange of people between the guilds is a very good idea, because what I already mentioned, you get some sort of competition.

Can someone tell me what the plan is for powerleveling the lower people in the guild, as I heard some people talk about that?

Hi, my friend and I would really like to join the second PornFlakes guild we are 58 and 57. We are active and we play a lot (When the server is online ^^) So it would be nice if you guys accept us in the guild. See you in game! You can try to pm me or my friend on McDonald Or Vaquish thx

Btw we are in a guild now but we can leave if there is 2 spots in the guild

There is no "set" level, i am just trying to clean out the guild a bit. Once i kick the people under 60 ill make the next minimum to be 70~76. Idk know exactly when that will be so dont ask.

You are welcome to join the second PornFlakes. PM PornFlaker when your on, he will be able to invite you.

Having people be promoted to the main guild is a good idea, yet it's an idea that will have to be reviewed a few days before Fortress (take a look at progress being made in it, see if there's room in first guild, etc).
Ofcourse in a couple months from now both Guilds should only have 90+ members, unless some are really inactive...
