It was a high rate server.. it was a good server! No Lag.. Helpful GM's... also friendly ! in the first 2 weeks when were playing on that server when I entered the PVP Arena. My character there is Champ! and then a wizard hit me Level 10 Soul Strike with a damage of 4k each! lol ! so i did nevermind about that.. 4 weeks later when we discovered that 1 of the GM's there has a normal account(s) and putting unbalanced BS there. So we just uninstalled their client and play Super Mario xD Edited February 18, 2012 by Fibonacci 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think in Private Servers we're a little spoiled when it comes to events. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a main problem of servers, and why they die (i mean why online come from server?). 1.) Main problem it's GM's! When i did't see GM online i am happy. Why? Because by 6 years experience, i know 95% of theys corrupt! Thats MAIN PROBLEM OF ALL SERVERS! 2.) Imbalance items! What some? as like i play on some very good server (hello Jeffrey) server was be great! really! no custom and etc. GM done all server\client side. only what players must to do - PLAY! nothing more! GM thing "i do small work, need more" and add REALLY IMBA ITEMS as like 90% neutral reduce, or 120% reflect magic spell. sure, after that ~ 70% online go to other servers, beacause only 5 players was can rule in arena, etc 60 peoples cannot. 3.) LAGs! But thats not big problem if is "long distance from server", if server good lags not problem, (i use socks proxy, or sock's proxy services (hello wowping.ru, myfreedom); But when server LAG! thats is imba bad!; 4.) I hate "very defenced servers". as like harmony + some etc defence shield? Why? it's easy - because sometimes you find server for rest, not for mobbing, looting etc. and very good servers, where "allowed" botting (but in normal ".....", no as like 24\7\31\365 hunting). 5.) I hate communityes, and not friendly servers! as like when i start to play on "world" servers, (before that i play only on servers (russian)) i was dont know english (now i dont know english too) i was "unhappy" when i ask "guys, please, help me, show me where's JOB CHANGER??" and they start trashtalk to me. BEST SERVER, where GM create AROUND HIM AND HIS SERVER GREAT HELPFUL COMMUNITY, VERY KIND, AND STRONG IN PVP\WOE; 6.) Children GM's or SchoolGM's 7.) Donate orientired server. 8.) No updates! в нескольких словах это: 1.) Корумпированные админы. 2.) Лаги серверной стороны (не хостинга). 3.) Школьники ГМы 4.) Донат ориентированные сервера 5.) Имба вещи. 6.) Нет квестов, тупое PVP; 7.) Дохрена защит, что играть становиться не выносимо (потому что нужно играть честно). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imbalanced Items 2. Lag! 3. No Updates! 4. Staffs doesn't care anymore about their server. 5. Lots of favoritism 6.

If I play on a private server, I support it. It's only right. When I see the economy of a large/medium sized private server start to wobble, or crash, I begin looking for a new home. (As I am now.) After economic imbalances, you will usually notice 1 or 2 guilds begin to run the server, due to the recent economic fluctuations. Kind of like the great depression. Also, when a server has staff members that are constantly corrupt/unprofessional, I think twice about the viability of long-term play on said server. Other things that can influence me are: Server community - all servers have the nice guys, and the means ones.. but when nothing is done about flaming/harassment, it shows a lack of dedication to player environments. Update frequency: I understand when an Admin goes out of town, or there is no update for a month. But when it goes beyond that, it implies the server staff has lost enthusiasm. That's never a good sign. Edited May 29, 2012 by Tyrant64 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
