it was my first mmorpg to begin with but the main reason for me was the community, regarding epvp. back then around 7 years ago, epvp was one of a kind and the sro community was a huge hit. the community it self had its own guild and people were helping each other and all that. i miss the people like windrius, and oriya and alex, and all the other people which i can't remember. i don't remember having that much fun in any game since it was just legit and pure fun. we were finding bugs, abusing them, kicking everyones ass with +25 weapons and all, but the point is, the community was so alive back then. now i have a huge regret to have played a role in releasing the server files, which gave an end to the community. i feel like I'm too old for this game since its been a huge 7 years , but i do think id still continue on playing if i had my old mates.
besides, joymax also killed its own community by doing nothing, that huge number of players just faded away and left their place in bots. recently i just went on to check up on a thing or two, and in all servers i saw nothing but bots, not even 1 active player, which is sad, though inevitable
