The glaring lack of accountability by the game makers is what is most troubling. To turn a blind eye and not rectify a glitch that, arguably, gives beneficiaries an advantage during siege amongst other things strikes me as lazy administration. The bottom line is, there should have been a rollback and/or the glitch castle upgrades during that period should have been rescinded.

That didn't happen so now we have a case of "have" and "have not" guilds. One side that will never get those walls (unless we get another glitch) and those that had basically an easy handout (once they learned about the glitch and methodically set about exploiting it). Of course I am sure at the time you it never occured to your innocent selves that something was wrong....*cough*...LMAO.

Bottom line - it was easier to look the other way, but the game makers could have at least offered an easy upgrade to those guilds that did not exploit the glitch (or didn't have the opportunity to) since you didn't roll back the illgotten castle upgrades.

I am in a guild that has the castle upgrade (not sure how it was obtained), but I wouldn't be against leveling the playing field for other guilds. That would be the right thing to do. For those that earned the castle upgrade honestly, give them something else.

I work in software and there is something to be said about a company standing up, saying "oops - we messed up" and then making it right. I didn't see that here.

The worst part is, when a glitch like that happens, the top end players keep that to themselves and don't share the info. If they would have, eveyone would have benefited from it, but no, it's all about control.

Whatever info or whenever i get it, i world shout it, so all can benefit from it. Just making sure that we are all equal on the Reni server and have an equal chance. But you know me , the glass might be half full, half empty, but hell it's still halfway there, loll. Help would benefit all, put ego's aside, attitude, greed etc and let's make the server better.

Now let's all go kill level 75 world bosses!!!!!

Roll back is just what this game need as final drop that would spill the glass...

If that happened (happens), we should be looking for new game, or play that other game by now.

Don't forget that original RoM population (Taiwan, china) probably did not suffer as NA and EU population from those latest 'other' games. In their world, everything might be still working well...

Just got a flash of genius!!! Give us a package that has rubies in them for guild construction only. Like 5K rubies for 50 diamonds on IS weekend special guild construction day!!! For labour day!!! That would be such an awesome sale.

Make it happen please so all can enjoy their castle.

TYVM


I could see that ending with a million "QQ Frogster you !@@# I bought these rubies and i can't spend them in ruby shop!!!" threads lol because people will just read the "ruby" part, and not the "for guild construction" part :p.

You tank, and the rest of us will sit here and watch you get roflstomped - er, I mean give you some cover fire :D
But it would be awesome to have a CM event and Dio spawning the lv 75 bosses in varanas.

They will QQ anyways, whatever Gameforge does, they are trying to make things better, fix issues and all. They have done more in 6 months than the previous company in a year. They gave their staff more tools to work with.

They give them 150% diamonds and they say why didn't we get 200%, they will always QQ.

Just trying to get stuff recommended so we might get it, if we don't speak up, we will get nothing. Remember the spider mount?? yes Dionaea got it for us, SHE ROCKS!!!!

;-) All have a nice day

Uh what? First that's not the original RoM population, the TW servers opened after NA and EU. Second, having a bunch of TW players in my guild, they do have other games that they could play if they wanted to.

And third and finally the TW servers shut down 2-3 months ago.

I think I need to ask for a guild event.

The "Noto needs a pretty inner keep to match the walls we worked our ever-loving bums off to get the rubies for 10 rubies at a time doing quest turn-in's and ps we'd like the 20% tp tower and forge and field VII too and don't forget we got ZERO bugged rubies on Palenque (just like we got ZERO bugged gashas) cause we're actually a taco stand and no one ever tells us anything Festival"

What, is the name too long?

(have to admit, everyone would know I came up with the name though)

Let me make clear some info some people are confused about. Yes we benifited aswel as a few other guilds by the broken event. However the reason we worked hard for our upgrade is because we already had a large portion of rubies that we got from our members doing guild quests and donations through the years. The event if it was going to work right was going to give us enough rubies anyway to upgrade it.

Just an FYI

I am not apposed to some sort of rudction or increase on ruby availablitiy, however it should not be overly available. make the guild quests give higher reward, board 1: 10 rubies, board 2: 20 rubies and board 3: 30 rubies. Possible add a ruby chance from the farming stations like we get hardwork crystals now.

These are small changes but over a 20-50 member guild it makes a difference each day.
