Silkroad Online Forums

Thanks to the people who sent the mail.
Let's wait for tomorrow's inspection and see if there is any reaction from Joymax, event if I doubt of It.

uhm, Silkroad France forum, they provide loader...

So what ?
It's just a clean loader made by a staff membe of SRO France.

Nothing. I just realize that cheaters want other cheaters (bots) to get banned.

- multiclient => take server slots
for addicts who play with no lesss than 5 clients at once
and it seems clienltess can do better
- swear filter => allow you to insult, say words that no one like to hear
dont need a loader for that
- no DC => reduce the probability of other users to connect
this is the main reasonn people use it i guess
- zoomhack => cheat in fortress
how?

First we the old and beta players petitioned JM for years. We even had members of this community here who actually worked at joymax and cared for the game. Know what it got us? As a community it got us nothing. Litteraly less than nothing really. The community that worked for joymax either got fired or walked away because they cared about the game/community and did not want to do things the joymax way. When they left joymax replaced them with non community team players. Players that play for team them and not us. They don't care the game is an embarasment. It would in the short term litteraly cost them more to fix than they earn on it. And just in case you didn't know they have no long term plans. Not for SRO. Once the revenue stream is dried up your beloved SRO will be gone. True facts.

Second about it not being all joymax's fault. Really, really, really it is. The botters are not specifically evil people. Simply put they are people with weak morals, minds, and wills. They want to be the best but could never get their on their own. With their weak constitutions they succumb to the worst parts of human nature. In real life there is very real action a community can take. Very real reprocussions for doing wrong. In SRO the community at best can only ridicule and annoy these people. But can really do nothing to keep them in check as there are no lasting negative consequences to the actions they take. The best the community can do is a false paradise like venus. It looks nice on the surface but there are plenty of botters there. They are doing admirable at retarding the growth of the retards on the server but the retards will eventually win. Holding them back is like a single man trying to hold back the ocean tide. If joymax cared they would ban the miscreants or institute some sort of community government ability to allow the community to patrol itself and JM just watch the watchers. Never gonna happen.

In the end you all should re address your emails to /dev/null as it will have the same or greater effects. It is through no lack of effort on the part of the community that the game is the shithole it is. We tried for years. Many including myself held out hope after hope. Though eventually all the smart ones moved on. Move on my friends move on. SRO has alot of promise but not under joymax's control. Make of that what you will. Be it another game or a non Joymax run version of SRO which is always better run than any JM version.

If you weren't just advertising this "petition" or whatever you wish to call it. You would know that using a loader is just as bad as botting in the forum.

You are as long as you think that loader is ok to use. Ppl always say that "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" but it seems that this is not the case, this is more like a triangular conflict. If the bots get banned then what? Loader users still exist and keep enjoying the advantage they get from it.

pff, just hire me as GM, i'll wipe 90% of the server a day

Good luck, you have to have definitive proof that a person is botting or your could end up with a lawsuit, sounds unrealistic but theoritically you could. On top of that, I'm sure joymax won't let you ban anyone that has bought silk unless that player is like hacking the server lol, a lot of goldbots probably bought $5 of silk and the account is good forever.

They clearly state that botting is prohibited. That is a rule. If you do not respect it you deserve to be banned. Don't come around with lame excuses.

Edit: imagine you're a GM. You PM some guy killing some monsters, but he doesn't PM you, neither he stops killing monsters. Do you think he's a normal player and not a bot? Usually everybody is exciting seeing a GM...

names such as 'asdsfs' are enough prove for botting

only retards think that using a loader is just as bad as botting

Oh? Let me introduce you to Exposed Botters.

Your missing the point, just because someone looks like they're botting doesn't mean they are. Just because someone doesn't respond to your whisper doesn't mean they don't see it. You need to know for sure, without doubt that they are botting before you can ban them. If you see someone wearing 1d gear and wielding a 1d weapon, does that mean they are level 1-8? Of course not, they could be level 1-100.

You guys are so rude. Without a loader, loging into sro is like 98.9% impossible (except you have no life and try for hours).

And @NuclearSilo: Take it easy, it's just a game. It's not like doing anything illegal IRL.

Ofc, no one like to ban on assumption, but it's not hard to identify a bot, and there are many ways.
I can identify bots by just looking at their way of grinding, basing on their speed of picking up items, trajectory to find mob around, etc...
