Is this the solution for Silkroad?

i sincerely think that the solution of sro , is to make it a pay to play game, I know there is a lot of people who will disagree on this, but let's face it making it pay to play you will defenetely get rid of gold bots (and turks <LoLz>)The in-game economy will regain balance,( i mean in 2006 when i started playing everything was soooo cheap).
Look other games for example WOW,that game is literally the biggest mmorpg in the world and it is pay to play, so I don't think Gaymax... I mean Joymax shouldn't be worried for the money.
For the players that can't afford pay to play , you guys should get a job (I don't mean it in a sarcastic way <<or do I ?>>)I mean nothing is really free in life.

Is this the solution, what do you think about it ?*


*Pls give a mature answer

No, joymax should have the option to buy gold through the item mall. This will definitely kill the gold botting business (if cheaper, and it would be cheaper, all they have to do is create the amount and tah-dah), it would free up server space because of no more gold bots, and it would increase their revenue. Making it pay to play would definitely free up space in servers cuz less ppl would play.

1st
wow has gold bots ,,, and yes gold bots can buy from the internet -.- !!!
2nd
turks uses money on sro more than you can imagine
3rd
if all sro player can buy from internet then it would be 97%+ afk game

You can't compare WOW with Silkroad.
You can't compare Blizzard with Joymax.
They are on different dimensions, although loads of people pay on Silkroad, the majority of players will leave the game, mostly because of the shit community and let's face it, a game way poorer than other paytoplay MMORPG's.

sorry man, but this idea is just bad.
what makes you think, that gold prices are not variable for the gold companies also??

they can make just cheaper then joymax. i think joymax will not sell 100m for 2euro or something like that. this would completly destroy the economy of sro.

absolutely true, i mean saying that Sro is free to play is hypocritical from joymax , since the only way to log in to the game beside premium, is with altered game clients (no dc) , mods and scripts+ luck.

We have to change f2p to more like Free-2-try-2-play.

p2p won't do a thing besides having more space for more goldbots.

i would pay up to $10 a month to play, if it means they ban all goldbots and servers are always populated. that means they need to ban about 50,000 - 100,000 goldbots per week. thats it, no other way i would pay to play this game. also when you pay your monthly fee of $10 you should get like 100 silk added to your account. it'd be the best game ever.

Also think ISRO is INTERNATIONAL Silkroad Online, Blizzard have a lot of servers for every big country.
