I just came back after a year and a half and forgot my accnt info and gaymax says if I cant remember my ID I should re-subscribe... so I guess Im back in square one T_T


Last thing I remember doing was joining a group of people starting off in EOS ( when it was barely opening) after that iunno what happened to the game...can anyone fill me in ? :D


I see there's a lvl 100 cap now...which seems un-reachable... since it was a bitch for me to even get to 50 for me when the cap was 80 or 90 ( forgot) and that we have a waiting line now for logging in :O

so how's everyone doing? :D

EDIT: oh hey I found the thread viewtopic.php?t=99485

lols...I also remember tons of people debating in this forum on who had a life and who didn't and because they spent most of their time in the off-topic section rather than in game...wat...


EDIT2: wow looks like imma quit again after 5 minutes of rejoining... server looks full of bots as usual -sigh-

it's not even remotely worth all the hassle, just pick up a fps and actually "play"

Login is a bit unfair. It randomly assigns you to 1 out of 4 login servers unless you know how to mod your host file. Of the 4, 2 are usually auto chosen by goldbots so it's unusually long. So if you get stuck with a short server, takes you around 3-6 hours to login. On one of the bot servers, could take 24-48 hours to login. A bit worse than old system imo. Rather get lucky within 15 mins and play once a week, than let my computer overheat trying to just login. Also, if when you reach the top of the queue on your login server, there's 4 login servers but 1 game server, so when 1 player slot opens, 4 ppl are shot in at once. Whoever gets in gets to play, but the 3 other ppl get stuck in limbo and have to restart their client, if they left it running, than they'd just keep runnign sro, but never logging on.

In short, it sucks. Now the euro buffs make it insane since it's just a never-ending war. 100 is insane to reach, all ppl do is run around and kill lowies. No one tries to kill roc since everyone's weak and hate partying. GM appears and admits that we can't do anything about bots, server traffic spikes again once GM event ended last week.

A doctor, who specializes in skin diseases, would have a dream that he has fallen asleep in front of a television, later he would wake up in front of a television but would not remember his dream.

Sort of makes me wonder why people still bother playing on older servers. Right now the connection on Iris takes roughly 20-30 minutes all week long. I myself am thinking about retiring from Xian after spending over 2 years there.

Is it just me, or does that seem rather long? :\

I've been on Alps since it opened, 4.5 years now I believe, too lazy to switch to new servers. I only mess around mostly now, spam elixirs see how high i can get, run around and try to kill medusa or roc. Laugh as my team and I get raped. Good stuff.

That's about what it takes for me. I run a client on my comp and my gf's comp on each login server, wait about 12 hours, than see if any logged in. Than i note which ones let me log in for future use. So far, only found 1 that really works under 12 hours. Rest just kept going and going so i closed the client.

I feel like if I say I agree, I'll secretly somehow be committed to allowing you to chop my balls of and create an award winning meatball...

So let's just agree to disagree.
