If you have MidRate and stable server you wont gain any players.. its just like selling stores in real life.. once one store of clothes will make 50% free event all others must lower the prices... same for SRO pservers.. Dropdead broken everyone by setting 400x rates so everyone else must do the same so they wont lose players, this called losing quality, everyone loves getting max level in 2 days.. but hey where's the challenge in it? Silkroad online lost his Main point of view.. I remember in isro cap 70.. who was Lv70 was the king.. now every fucking noob doesnt need to know anything about the sro gameplay and he could get MAX LEVEL aswell !

So : I would say, precisely unknown but seems to be, yeah. Which takes us to the following: -> ---------------------------------------------------------- Now, let's talk about the money after all we can't ignore that strongest material. The statics says this formule: 20% of the server population buys atleast 10$ for silks monthly.. Let's say for ex. that I'm some randomal server's owner.. incase to get crowded server what should i do ? staying with low and stable rates? obviouse answer: NO ! incase to have 2000 players in my server i must compit by increasing the rates since I HAVE NO CHOICE ! so this is my celculation: 20% of 2000 players = 200, 10% a month X 200 players = 2,000 USD a month and thats the minimal profit .. the Middle celculation shows that you can even reach 10,000 USD a monthly for each 2k capacity server ! And that gonna cause alot of issues, 90% of the servers gonna compit for sure.. SRO Community gonna die by getting bored of max level there wont be any challenge so about the "Strongest servers will survive" i must say that its not like WoW pservers. But there's still another option: Maybe the "High rates servers's wave will end" and if that gonna happen than the strongest servers will survive.. till then will be just a total CHAOS ! And I emphasize ! my comment it's about the shorter term than pushedx's comment. Greetings, Kobi.

Is not about other people setting higher rates, is just that they are still using old business strategies, that worked well in the past while there was pserver monopoly, but won't work in the current situation, where everyone can offer the same, with the only difference of how fast you get the stuff. Mid rate servers aren't better than highest rated servers, I can't see any real difference between them, people won't play a server that offers the same as the 999 private servers around, but slowlier. The time when sro pservers will offer something fresh and new is still far away, until then we are just living an spare time of crappy servers poping out from everywhere. And now I will type this for copy somewhere in the future, on another thread: At the end of 2012, only 4-6 private servers will stay open with a decent player population, and none of them will be high-rated server.

Everyday killing the same lame mobs easily to get son, killing the same lame mobs in Temple or Jobcave ior FGW... *ZZzzZZZzz* the last step is to get a egy weapon from the quest and coins for this nova set but honestly i've no motivation to do it. being 110 on a high rated dont feel like that u archieved something special, coz every nap is 110FF, full son. maybe im to old for this game... i loved cap60,70,80,90 on isro, had lot of fun with my guild at wars, fortress etc... great feeling. but this.. x30 rates were good too.. esro3 was a good time. my 2 cents...

Something NEW, DIFFERENT. 11D, Alexandria, Forgotten World, Job Cave temple, but with some bugs that really bothers you, but since you have no alternative you keep playing. Then, Diamond appears, with pets fixed and customized content, you move there. One week later, ~10 more servers appear, some of them gives you 1kk(YES MILION) silk. You join that, you play Magic Pop until you full nova+9, then you realize that playing in a server full of, well, really retarded people, is a bad idea and a waste of time. You fulfilled your dream, you're full nova+9, you have all skills maxed out, you have more than 3 chars maxed out in everything. You see, after 1 month of playing on more then 5 servers, after achieving things you'll never achieve on isro, you get BORED. You get BORED because people don't PVP, people don't do job wars, people comes and goes doing the same thing over and over again, creating chars to fulfill their dream. Now, well, now you wait for Avalon's private 70 server with custom content to start, since it;s creator is a legit player and made the game for pvp/job war thing. eSRO, Bloody and Diamond, and probably Zelos will resist.
