RE: "Gifts for Greece Players" -
http://www.silkroadforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=39253
NOTE: There are two threads intentionally. There were 30 qualified contestants, but each thread allows a maximum of 15 poll options. So two threads were created. If your choice isn't in this thread, then go to the thread #2
This is a poll where the community gets to voice their input on who deserves the 2nd prize, 3rd prize, and perhaps subsequent prize(s). The 1st prize (2 Sosuns 8th D and 100m gold) was already awarded to a lucky winner.
People who aren't on the poll either didn't meet the qualifications, were retarded, or were disqualified for flaming the sponsor. The poll is set to run for 24 days. Obviously, no voting fraud or you will get disqualified if caught. Examples including singing up multiple accounts to vote for youself, pressuring your "friends" to vote for you, bribing someone to vote for you, and you can't vote for yourself.
May the most deserving person wins.

level - 62
protector and garment with blade & shield
i play in Greece since the third day of server opening~ and join in Ainokea guild when it just established. i have never leave the guild, only because i "quit" the game, but i came back!!!
i have 65k GP in the guild!!
i am trying to make the guild more fun!! i think u do that too!!
now i am the guild master~~
actually i havent really done anything contribution for Greece. BUT i think i have a lovely, hotty heart for the Greece and SRO. i think thats the most important contribution for Greece. if there is no one love the Greece, it will shut down for sure!! so i think the Greece makes up by anyone who loves Greece like u and me =)
Many friends of mine had quit the game, or left because of hacking. Well, when i knew they've gotten hacked, i always help them by gifting a weapon or giving some golds. I dont might the low lvs ask me some "nooby" questions, coz we were all noobs when we just started. this is the way i contribute for the Greece
If i deserve your gift luckily and honorarily, i will be so excited!!
NOT because i get a sosun or something! BECAUSE i get a gift from Death2All and i will have more chance to kill you!! xD

1.) I'm cute.
Now for a reason that's not completely fabricated.
I'm a blader, and i've grinded by hand up to level 45, it's ridiculously hard to level. Bladers are slow, and it's hard to kill without a nuker bot coming to ks. [at least I can tank 4 mujigi giants] I've also got a guild and union to look after, so anything special is kinda out of the question for me since I make sure they're equipped decently, have enough money to 'survive', and so on. I also watch other legits and their guild backs, if I see someone botting I let them know.
A friend also got keylogged recently, so I helped him find a new armor set and weapon. I've lost a lot of friends to 'hacking' incidents, and whenever this happen I try to offer support in any way I can. A friend is a friend, botter or not.
I've also been with this game since Dec 2005. Never in my entire time in this game, have I been lucky enough or rich enough [the second being more recent because of gold bots] to have anything that belonged to me that was of moderate-high value, or even over 20mil. I know you're not a cheapass
So to sum it up:
I level the legit way, I take care of all my ingame friends, I have a guild to manage/keep whipped, I watch out for people I don't really know, and although it's useless I point out just about every scam I come across in hopes that people won't fall for it -_-
Whenever help is needed, I do my best to help out unless something is being demanded from the person who's 'in need'.
I'm just a generally nice/caring person. =]
DresAn

I wont say I deserve a gift because you are the one who will decide, so it is up to you whether I do or I do not, in any case, a few reasons would be because I love this game, I love its potential, I believe this game would be greater than most MMORPG out there if only people would stop botting, be nicer, help each other, would try to actually have a friendly competition and get along instead of flaming each other on globals. I take care of my guildmates the best I can, no matter their level, nationality, sex, religion. Tomorrow I will be lv52 (yay! without botting), wish I had the gold for a sos spear lv52, but I dont, it saddened me at first, but after a closer inspection, I realized it was not worth it, so I got a 52+4 instead <3, in 2 days my guild will make it to lv4, wish I can afford the 15m ASAP, but it seems I will have to become a stall whore for a while so I can afford it =p
GL to others as well <3

sayafaya

I deserve it because:
- Ive been on Greece from the beginning
- My farmer account got hacked and i lost full SOM+5 Gear & Bow.
- Never bought a single silk from Gaymax
- Never botted
- Always help other players when they need me
- I always ask u if i can see ur SoSuns, but u always say ur busy
- U popped my first trade ever when i reached lvl 20. I was so happy begin able to trade, but after u stole my goods i was pissed off
Broken_Down
-----------------
broken_down lvl 66. Why? Because you love me, and i was in your guild for 14 minutes. We've always been col as far as I know, so be cool again
EDIT: Since I actually read your edits. I'm a S/S nuker, in garms
EDIT2: I thought maybe I should come up with a real reason, since everyone like applauded/loved ito's. Well, what I thought up, ended up not making any sense. D2A you're a cool guy, had a lot of conversations with you over the last year, have fought along side of you, as well as against you,and it's been fun all the way. I hope I'm considered.
P.S. I'm not as cute as ito, but I'm still up there ^^ [I hope those pictures meant something to you too
Sunaj
-------------------
Well I think that I deserve watever gift it is, I'm not hoping for anything in particular, because once its a gift you should'nt be begging.
I have played on Greece not too long after the server opened. I was on Troy before but got frustrated with a hybrid build I was trying to make.
A friend convinced me to come back and try again on the best server "Greece", to try again.
I was like "A server named Greece?" sounds really cool.
So I joined Greece, created an archer and was on my way facing alot of skepticism from people who believed that bow users are useless and stink at pvp. People were even telling me to change to Glaive.....right....
I survived through all this being owned at ever corner, I was Ice Bow and alot of people were immune. So I farmed enough to get fire series, and farmed some more to get more lightning, and by 64 i was much much stronger and started to kik some butt. All this without a SOS drop, and being poor as hell.
Luckily I got my first SOS at 68, was a SOS BOW!! I +5 it but Im still kind of weak beacuse im farming again at an 8 gap.
Anyway im looking for more luck in this game, on my quest to prove to everyone that archers are good in pvp, Its all about strategy, you have to use your brain to kill:- not just whack away with a big stick with a blade on the end and stun and knock back people with major damage, or knock down and stab people to death while blocking their every attack, thats not talent or skill. Archers need to be skilled to kill, and I'm learning that awsome skill.
All of this is why you should consider me for one of your gifts.
Yours Truly

Been playing on Greece since July 2006
I don't fuel Joymax with buying Silk...at all
I'm pretty much broke gold-wise...
Slowly SP farming at PEGS...
I Help people on the forum in Q+A section....
I Enjoy SoSuns...
Everything else you mentioned you don't care about...
What I've done to contribute to Greece...
I don't go after weak Uniques over and over again, I've only gone for Ureuchi once...and got the kill. Give everyone else a chance to get a unique kill, except I see the same high levels getting the kills anyway.
I helped some begger traders by hunting for them when then randomly PM me to hunt for them, although I mostly reply "no" now since its so hard to keep a stable connection while hunting.
When I saw traders goods on the ground while walking by, I equip Hunter and PM the trader telling them the location of their goods....although i'm ignored a lot.
I don't KS people while grinding. I usually find another spot to grind in rather then let both of us get half exp at a slower pace.
I've never murdered anyone...
I usually sell Accessory and Shield Elixers that i'm just gonna npc for 20k in town, hoping that the next time that I need them, the price might drop to 20k.
I have no specific enemies on Greece...
I worry about selling low and fast then to sell overpriced after weeks. Server prices are only high because people would rather stall overnight for weeks to make a little more gold. Everyone who tries to buy low and resell high are actully just buying high and selling higher....then its sold again even higher until its too overpriced to be worth the power.
Thats all anyone can really do to contribute to an entire server of people, Help the innocent, make friends and not enemies, and don't hog the uniques...Or give gifts to the players of the server...which I don't have enough to give.
I won't be home on Saturday until about 4:45-5:15 EST (3:45-4:15 CST)if thats too late to even give me a shot of "winning". I'll be on for sure past then though.
thx
I'm Actully honest about my post and not obviously lying to get the prize...Unlike some others who posted here...."Be honest. Lying will get you disqualified."

-I've been playing on Greece since June 2006
-I've suggested that my friends play on Greece instead of other servers
-I walk around Jangan giving 10k away to random new players xD
-100% legit (Hand grinded to 52, then gave in to a GT -.-)
-Like free things, even if it's 1 gold =o
-I like shiny things.
-I frequently help out in the Guides section about Pk2 editing questions and such. I even wrote a -semi guide- on how to create Cruors Meteor-Rain
-I know the secret to the Pure STR nuker.
I feel that there is no real way of contributing to Greece except doing something big, such as making a movie (DaRealest), or making it so many more people join the server (Although it doesn't happen often because it is one of the most bot infested.) All I've done for the server is hand grinded my way up to 6x (and I'm still going..), sold items at fair prices, never scammed anyone, never created any enemies, and never hogged uniques 30 levels below me.

6x Glaiver
Male Garm
Edit: I can't compete with all the sob stories about people getting hacked and losing their sos's and such. I've never been hacked, because I'm not a moron who puts his password as his own last name, or something VERY easy, or joins a site and gets keylogged like a tard. Honestly, I could make a giant story about how I got hacked and still perservered through it all and helped everyone out because I'm so nice and amazing, but will you beleive it? Do you beleive everyone elses sob story? If you want to give any items to someone who will get through to the end, and not some guy who will get 6x and quit, then give them to me.

Well D2A, i really dont think anyone would actually deserve your sosun. I mean having loads of sosun puts you at a great advantage over most other players, and having that just given to you sounds wrong. However I think its worth a shot for me to see if i can get a peice of your 1337 gear.so i will write why i would like to have a sox blade 8D as a matter of fact any peice would suit me -_-'.(and please note that i said like to have, meaning im not going to flame you, or suck you ass like some people)
I am a lvl 66 blader. As you know i do very little damage and lvling up is quite the task compared to int based builds. Espcaially like someone like me who is not rich enough to get a jawdropping blade and/or have the luck w/ alchemy to make one. I am a dedicated player to sro and will remain a dedicated player as long as the game stands. You will see me on just about every night CST sg jg pvping. Im a nice guy, i help low lvls do trades sometimes, i give them gold from like 25-50k not alot for us but alot for them. i am 2nd in command of my guild, and i have earned very powerful trust from my guildmates. i think i will also add that i am an actual player of sro, i have played it and interacted w/ my guildmates, creating a bond. i have the best guild in my opinion, some r low lvl some r noobs but over my time period of playing, we have grown very close and i would never leave it for the world i help them out as much as i can. but u said be honest to i will say that i do rob. and yes i do pop 1*s everynow and then when im sick of lvling. this is the basis of my character, so i hope this will get me something good xD , bc god knows i will never get 8D sox.... drop-_-',

--------------------
Well here goes my shot...
First of all I realize that I'm one of the people who never writes in forum, and only popped my head out when I saw this thread.
I've been reading on tis forum quite a lot for the past few months (made this account some weeks ago just to make a little joke with a friend )
OK, so really like I said i've been reading these forums quite a lot in the past few months. Honestly, a lot of what I do and think about revolves around SilkRoad eer since I started playing. (What a loser huh?)
Ever sincce I found this magnificent yet cruel game I've became addicted. I'm sure that many here can relate. But all I feel that I've recieved from this game is agony.
My first account was on Babel where I had several. All different builds because i felt that everytime I made a new character I learned something new. Ive always been a perfectionist, and I couldn't stand feeling that I could achieve more with a different build.
So at my 5th character I reached the ideal build (for me). It was a Hybrid Int Spearer, which I got to level 42 and started farming with a SOM spear I saved so long for.
About 2 weeks into farming I came back forom school, tried to log on and recieved the message that the account was already in use. I was suspicious of this but didn't realize yet that my account has been hacked.
I lost everything I had. My SOM spear which I bought 7 Astrals to get to +5. My monkey which was for some reason sold to NPC for 1Gold.
All my gear was gone, the little money I had, and of course a large portion of my SP were put into Force,Cold, and other skills I had no use for.
After seeing what hjappened I closed SilkRoad and hadn't opened it for 2 weeks after that. It was so apinful. I realize people may see me as a loser for taking this game so seriously, but I just loved playing it so much. And I jsut couldnt see the reasoning behind the cruelty of the hackers.
A few weeks later I opened new chars on various servers. Greece being one of them. I tried lots of different builds but lost my passion for the game. Coudn't play anymore
So now, after trying so hard to make my hacking story sound as painful as possible, the reasons I feel u should give me whatever prize u have are as following-
1)I love this game more than probably anyone who entered this contst. I dont know what it is u want to give away, but hey I really need something which will give me back the passion I once had. I just want to enjoy playing again... waiting to use some great degree8 weapon would give me a great insentive.
2)Never schamed, never done anything non legit. The people who I met up with on silkroadcan't say about me anything bad. Generaly I try to help out others (Small trade runs, and varios "10k plz" requests)
3) Im sure I can be one of the few legit high levels on Greece hwo wil lhelp make the server a better place.
4) I'm 2 weeks now without Silkroad..and I really would love to come back
My IGN is _ShaLU_
Im a mere lvl 10, as I left this character in hopes to find something I couldnt find with any character.
I started off in Garms using a Glavie. Was planning on farming at lvl 16 at Den. (Obviusly I could use different weapon from glavie)
If you are loking for a person who has a past with Greece I am not your man. But if your looking for someone who can be Greece's future, I might be.

I've been playing on Greece for a long time now, and I've been hacked by someone named Poseldon and D34th a couple of times, and they made me lose my interest in the game. But I just need some inspiration and help to get back in the game and start again on my 57.

I deserve this gift becouse im a good person. I farmed all day by hand only! and if you give me that gift it will not be wasted,it will be in goodhand. And this gift will help me alot when i lvl up!

Pawnage- level 50
Protector, switching to garment at 57
i barely hav any sox items, maybe 3-5 max. Ever since i found about stones iand elixirs in sro i couldn't stop using them, making me broke day after day after day. I am legit player . When my friend started playing i gave him a som and a sos along with 500k for him to start off with. Personally, i always thought D2All was a hacker/botter but doing this gift thing proves he isn't.
Musketball

Don't know if I'm too late for this. But here goes. I'd love to get whatever help you can afford to gift out. I'm online on greece (Level 17) playing with my 7 year old son, (Level 1, and we can be found wandering around helping each other out (Our own little clan ). If you have something useful at our level, that would be super!
Our IGN's are Musketball2, and Muskets_son.. We of course are on Greece..
RainOfTerror
-------------
The reason i think i need a 8D anything, hrm...cause this acc got hacked like 50million times, vanness has all the good stuff now, people pm me to talk shyt thinking im bryan, uh i have to put up with bryan. Bryan the noob tried to +6 everything and failed then gave up as everythings +4, rains a girl now...it takes too long to lvl with junk EQ and because bryans telling me what to type and im going to kill him for real, *hint hint* i might be happy enough not to kill him XD just kidding. i dont care what it is surprise me ill still be happy, so does pwning him in real life help greece in anyway? or being the middle man for the last 2 months for everyone wanting to talk to him? anything else?
Xello

polls..
i dont have any friends here in forum who will vote for me.
if only it will be ingame i got lots of friends who will vote.. i think that gift is not for me.
well good luck to all participants!

Hello Death2All u are my hero, i am only lvl 42 and i am a nice guy. I always help out the turks that ask for 10k. I have no friends in life and this game is my life I would love you if i won. I am a Hunter/Trader in game. I do not Thief because it is EVIL! I hunter for free and love to help. Also when people get hacked and run in town asking for help, i am the nice guy that goes and buys NPC cloths and weapon to help the people out. I use a bow/glavie and ur sosun would really help me , i wear armor because it give me so much defense. I have never gotten a SOS before i think i did but a monkey stole it that is why i dream of a sosun weapon every day so would you please choose me. I think that you will make a good decision because you rock, and the best one. Thank you very much my hero.
Oden

Hmmm how to say I deserve it more than the rest of the guys.... Thats a toughie really. One thing I can say about me is my last SOS drop was while I was at the Mujigi (Almost 30 lvls ago).
I am lvl 77 now and just trying to stay active even though I have to compete with the lag and botters everywhere.
I think a SoSomething would make it more enjoyable for these last fwe lvls.
Thx D2A for being the Silk Road Santa. We all know that Joymax does not know what an event is.

hi! my char on greece is Arch_Angell........I don`t think I deserv that goods, but if you chose me, I will be very happy....but I dont think that will happen...because Im not so lucky....Anyway, Silkroad is the best game I`ve ever played:D
