I'm kind of bored because I can't get into my server, so let's come up with a list of things that would be great to have in the item mall that wouldn't be too unfair for non item mall players.

My vote goes towards a VIP pass into the server, like they guarantee you can get into the server whenever you want, either kick out an AFK or they could keep a certain number of slots open for people with the VIP pass.

Just a thought....

What can you guys think of?

That would be unfair to the other players. Ever heard of Adventure Quest? It's supposedly free, but only paying players can get on.

Technically that would be a unfair advantage to non-payers. More time to grind= higher lvl.

Well isn't that the whole point of the item mall: to give an advantage to payers?

SP scrolls.

I wouldn't buy them, but JM could make a ton of money off them.

Skill part of the game is already gone. It became screwed up once they implemented the alchemy update.

They sure would make money. All sp farmers would buy them instead of gt's, because this way they would make double sp, but not double xp. So less deleveling, faster leveling... Stuff like that.

In 2moons and many other mmo's, it's not supposed to give a huge advantage to players, because if it did then everyone would be paying, and then you would be spending more money on a f2p than a p2p. :roll:

Well most people already pay more for sro than p2p games.
Ticket + monkey = already more than wow.
Then throw in globals, reverse return, res scrolls, astral/immortal, arrows/pots, and any other random crap.. and you got yourself a pretty expensive game.

Gold ticket + monkey already gives enough of a huge advantage..

How about an item that summons a GM for 1,000 silk?

Make it 10,000 silk even and it'll still sell.

Bad idea. Then silkroad will go down the drain even further.

Silkroad(ISRO) is based on grind tell your hands fall off(All kinds of people play this game,mostly, Turks,Americans,Viets) Not much to say about this game huh? :PPPP

Wow is a quest feast or unstopping questing(All kinds of people) Everyone knows about Wow, enough said.

2moons(Dekaron) is alittle of both, grind and quest,blanced.(Many Asians right of now, more white people soon) In open beta but server still not up yet, coming soon. Free to play.

Knights Online is more grinding but do have many quests(Turk heavon :P This game big in Turkey, asked people about why so many turks in this game) This game is free to play but.... you cant get online at anytime you want, you have to pay to really play any time you want. When you pay you get a drop rate+ and xp+. So you want to buy the things so you lvl faster but you also need this to play anytime you want. If you dont have, you have to wait till it allows all player on.

This is what I have seen much of really.

Wait... GT's already double the amount of xp and sp during the 3 hours...

XP and SXP are divided from a base "xpxp", and gt doubles the base you receive... thats all.

My friends idea is like "fashion shop".
You can buy uniqe cloths, customisable gdf's(no bonuses, just look cool), and so on, like ninja suits, samurai banners, cool loking hats(like low lvl garment hats... those are so cooool)
Not those insane looking "hats", those suck imo.

yeah thats what i was thinking those who have the cash and want to be diffrent(cool) can buy stuff like hats and lets say masks
that dont give and adventage for the player and wont hurt the non-paying player
it could be cool to have like tattoos and diff hair

but nooo JM dont think in this way and never will >_> unless someone will come here and start stealing ideas :O
