For those familiar with Ragnarok Online, our version here in the Philippines will open a new server on September 20. Called 'Thor', it boasts the presence of RagDefender, a well-known bot killer program embedded into the RO client.
RagDefender is good at what it does. It is updated weekly every maintenance. No bot program can permanently win against it. It takes a customized bot and a few days worth of fast programming to be able to get through, and since it is updated often, they can only enjoy it for a few days. It's been on for quite a while in Japan and it is still proving its effectiveness.
The developers of Openkore, the most common bot program used by pRO players, won't even try to touch it. (According to them.)
Personally, I think LU will go through with this server. They've lost a lot of players who dislike bots, and this is a perfect solution. Gain profit from the other servers through bots, gain profit from the non-botters as well. It's a win-win thing for them.
I hope to see a return to the old days; when you could actually talk to people leveling alongside you, when you would scramble for an Elunium the monster dropped in Glast Heim, when you felt like a million bucks upon gaining a card, when you were perfectly happy with +4 gear, when you would make a lot of friends, when getting to 99 actually felt like a great achievement, to you and to others, when you actually see people still vending flys/reds/gems.
When a monk/champ would not be so EF-happy because he knows how much SP recovery items he still has. (A similar thing can be said for AB Biochemists.) When you would actually use unorthodox tactics in WoE, not relying on numbers to swarm your target. When you give your life savings to get that VVS Wind Katana, or that Sakkat.
Let us hope.

Wow... Another new server...
But, sadly, i doubt the old days will come back.
GOne are the days where decent players would actually want to level-grind anymore.
Gone are the days when people actually cared about money.
why?
Because most of them just want to be the best. Most of them just want to own. Most of them just want to show the world that their the best...
WOE will preceed all other aspects of pRO now...
thats how I see it anyway...
Asa ka pa......
I hope so too. It'll be much like reviving Chaos/Sakray before the jologs came :lol:.
BabyCake here :)
Well, that server sounds good! Too bad it's not enticing enough for me to get convinced to play RO again :P
