Dear SRF.
We understand that you have much interest in this private server, however we need to remind and warn you that this is indeed an illegal server. Which may have legal action taken against it it JM decides.
For those who believe that JoyMax has no jurisdiction here, then let them be informed that although it is possible that the company which is licensed with cSRO has leaked the files. JoyMax was the original creators of the game, and all files associated.
As the biggest, and most viewed SilkRoad Online fan forum on the web, we cannot condone this type of discussion. Thus we are ending any and all conversation on the forums about the private servers. This is an illegal activity, which also allows botting on their games.
We understand that some of you may have opinions about this move, yet we cannot have SRF associated with such illegal activities.
If you do have something to say, please feel free to PM a member of the Mod staff.
Regards,
Key-J
