I was at my friend's house and we had to do a PowerPoint for school. We got bored and he showed me some of his games. One of them had really great graphics and I asked him what its name was. He told me it was Silkroad. At Christmas 2007 i got my new computer and I started playing :roll:

My cousin told me to try it SRO. Was playing Martial Heroes back then.

I played that shit when it was called OD(or DO?) Online :O
I'd like to get back into it, but everything in that game is so out dated. I tried to play it again after the game got raped by bugs, but everything was the same as it was when I stopped playing it (minus the bug).

Edit:

Ah yes, the game was called DO Online, it was the shit.

My cousin. I remember that day like it was yesterday.
So one day I was surfing the internets, searching for good pr0n when my cousin said that to me on Skype: "Hey, you know what? I'm playing this nice MMORPG called Silkroad Online- it has good graphics and everything". So yeah, I decided to try it, even though I'm not a big fan of MMORPGs. I liked it the second I tried it and I spent some months playing it.

well some time back in 06-08(i dont remember when), i heard about mmo's (yeah i was an internet newb then) so i decided to try 1 out(was inspired by .hack//legend of the twilight, anime).
when i googled it this(silkroadonline.net) happened to be the 1st result i clicked on, the site was cool and the screen shots looked nice so i decided to download, i got hooked. when it came time for my college studies and study pressure really started to mount(RedSea was near inaccesible at the time) i left.

When i decided to come back the traffic had gotten worse but i found this place

Wayy back in 2005 I was playing Adventure Quest, when a friend showed SRO to me. I tried it, loved it instantaneously, and surpassed his week obtained level 14 in one night. Then I got around level 65 (back in 70 cap) and stopped for a long long time. Eventually quit not too long ago (Late September) because it was just to boring, playing a game thats never going to go anywhere but down.

Man...that was like what? 4 years ago i was back then just arrived in the US and my friend was playing runescape and i didnt even know what is was(had never had a pc b4) then after playing it for a while i quit at lvl 8 i think since it was just stupid.

After that i made the worst decision of MY LIFE !! I found about sro dont remenber how then i start playing it then got my cousin that played rs to play with me and we both WASTED 3 YEARs of our life playing this damn game then we realize how it was ruining ours life then we quiited it.

BUT GUESS WHAT ! We couldn't keep ourselves from playing it we quitted and went back literaly about 20-30x then he finally quit for real after he heard some strange voice behind him one night when he logged out saying (whioe then game was logging out) DONT GO DONT GO PLAY SOME MORE.then he like jumped back like 5ft to his bed and was super scared then he never played it again after he told me that i did the same but went back thing called ecsro which was even worst i not even gonna mention all of it cause its just too much so sumin it all up we started hacking accounts together with DB7 (u prolly heard about them b4) then same old story ruimed our life socially and mentally and specially in school so that time we quit for good.

Haven't played sro for over an year now THANK GOD!!!!

After playing Knight Online for 2 years,getting hacked,tired of turk kids hacking the game,I was then looking for a new 3D game.

Honestly, when I saw the Skill/Spell Animations,I'v went to download the game straight away!

4 years ago I asked my roomate/best bud to search the internet for any new MMOs. He found SRO and started playing it and I watched him for a bit...I thought back then it was such an awesome game. The skills, the weapons, and the gears hooked me.

Surprisingly my friend only played it for a month before he got disgusted with it. I shouldav followed his lead. Instead I blindly wallowed and rolled like a dog in the putrid stench that the game really is b4 coming to my senses.

It was as if I was driving a Lamborghini covered in human feces and fooling myself that I was happy. The Lamborghini = SRO...the human excrement = Joymax.

my question is people who are playing since 2005/2006 are still playing this game? or they can't live without this game...

Can't live without this game? Are you serious?

That's all SRO is, a game. I play it for fun.

cause since people play this "game" at least 3 years and want to get lvl 100 or even further,, then its more then just an game for those i think...

Well, I guess I'm not one of those. I don't really plan on getting capped anytime soon, I've made countless new characters just so I can play with some friends and it's a lot of fun. I'm sure its more fun than grinding at lvl 99 getting 0.01% exp per every 10 mobs. ^^

teh uniquq gameplay and the urge to level up and add new skills
that was fun untill i noticed there was a max mastery lvl
that my account sucked becouse hybrid blader with sum bower and heuksal skills
and then i started to look for good builds and then i started over
now i stil like the game but the bots and joymax are so annoying
