"So anyways everyone has always suspected and have always nagged me from time to time. So it's my turn to come clean.
Recently you have come with the terms that Mary has once possessed the name morningdew. This is true. But it was stripped from her when she decided to leave Joymax (back in Sept). Since then I "Brian", aka "Employee A", aka "Silkypico" have taken over the role. But it was today which led my demise. Today I was fired for being a devoted employee to Joymax. For thirteen and a half months I have served you. Both positive and negative things have happened during the time period I was employed. But I always looked forward hoping that better things would happen for this game that I truly loved. Little did I know that the downfall would come to a brief end. I turned in my keys to the San Jose office and left with a smile on my face. Honestly, I could not be happier. I have made many friends, many enemies throughout the duration of my employment with Joymax. Today I will be leaving your community. Hopefully the next morningdew(s) will take care of you.
So far I have had 3 co-workers leave this company due to personal reasons. Most of them do not differ from my own. Sadly I still have friends that are dependent on this business. It will not be too long before everything will be set right.
Enjoy your game while it lasts. Cherish every minute of it. When it's over. Just never look back. " - Employee of JM (GM)

Botters make up 90% of the players in the game.
It is rare to find a non-silkbuying botter.
Bots = Buy silk with paypal.
To sell a service with paypal, you must be an approved merchant.
Joymax made 19million USD last year from paypal sales alone.
Paypal will cancel a merchant's service with them if they have too many conflicts (such as chargeback).
Imagine 20,000 of the 23million registered accounts on SRo charge back an average of $300 per account. That's about 6,000,000 USD loss for the company, and they would be canceled from paypal. The company has 247 employees with CA and Korea combined. That means ALL of their salaries would be gone. Comepletely gone.
Joymax makes 80% of their money every year from paypal.
80% - Paypal
15% - Other payment methods
5% - Promotions/Advertisment
Banning bots = paypal chargeback = company failure.
