Is CS dying out?

[TURBOSTAR]

Cs is dying out in several ways. 1. No incentive for people to stay in their server. 2. Unbalance sengolia anyone without slayer gear can expect zero to 1 silver an attempt. 3. only the winning guild is rewarded no rewards for top 5 guilds. No chat moderator to deal with the spamming and the profanity used. All ages play the game from 10 years old to adults. The game is getting better but people are not patient enough for r2 to fix in game bugs. Players also are tricky enough to cheat or cause in game glitches to force people to want to leave. No competition because in stead of people wanting to build up thier guilds they all want to join the top rewards forcing the guild to control everything. Our server is cool cause the top guild is nice friendly and not dramatic plus we don't bully anyone. Spawn camping is another issue. I will have to make a suggestion post cause I think the game can be a lot better then what it is.

yea. im just tryin to get by lol im just a mere lv 50 knight >.> cant do gr, seng, or anything else

There are reasons for asking this.

My server was merged with a more senior server, and has emptied out quickly since. It's much smaller than before the merge (Amethyst Forest). There are server merges going on all over, and often, at the same time as new servers are being created. Amethyst Forest and Cheurna Gorge were both newer servers so it's not a matter of players leveling as far as they could and moving on. Amethyst Forest has been losing players due to the behavior of a few higher level players.

It has gotten miserable in there so I wanted to transfer my account to a different server. I've put a lot of time and effort into my main char so I don't want to lose him. I can't transfer him. In order to get out of the bad conditions in my server I have to give up everything I've worked on and start from scratch. So I've tried to stick it out. It's not getting better. GR is a nightmare, Seng is a joke with no appreciable punch line, so the impulse is to just chuck it all and start over on a new server.

But if I start fresh on Belas Chasm or Crimson Gorge, how long willl it be before one of the epidemic of merges hits and my new char is just cannon fodder for the egos of players who have had time to level far beyond anyone in my server? It looks like the merges are coming faster than the new servers so the total number of servers is shrinking.

Is it worth starting a new character? Is it worth the time, effort and possibly cash that it will take? Or with the merges coming faster and driving ppl away at apparently greater speeds will the whole thing fold around me?

If it makes u feel any better I'm not from Amethyst I'm from Cheurna and i hate what's happening. Moving to another server and starting from scratch is not an option. Stay and ask the GMs to fix this is the only way u can enjoy this game. Again, if it makes u feel any better they were jerks before the merge too. It's not directed against Amethyst, u guys just happened to be lower lvls. Merging u with an older server wasn't ur fault so ask the staff to fix the situation. Long ago when i was being harassed as a lvl 30 some "elite players" told me to leave if i don't like it. I started on another server then i though "hmmmm they re not paying for my gaming, why would i do what they say". U shouldn't let few push u away as long as u enjoy a game.

As far as the "jerks" comment goes, not every1 is a jerk only cause we have S37 added to our names. It would also be nice when some1 says something u agree with to support that person. Each time i say anything about spawnkilling i get 1-2 ppl openly saying something on world chat and the rest bashing me. Better speak up, it's just a game, worst thing that can happen are few golds to fix ur anime armors:P

[ArchangelZero7]

well its not necessarily about the bullying, etc, although thats annoying as well. its just that since the merge its almost like everything just got unenjoyable. like before the merge, amethyst was very friendly, it was fun, easy to play. but now its just lost its luster. if it wasnt for me having payed a little for this game i wouldnt be playing near as much as now >.>

Yes, and I am glad you've emphasized this. It is one group of the highest level players that are on an active campaign of harassment. They are targeting anywhere that lower level players can gain honor/silver/xp or anything else that can be used to level or power up. When the Seng honor system was created they were complaining, then they started with spawnkilling from the start of seng.

When they came into Amethyst Forest they were enjoying driving players away and were saying how they'd done so much of it in Cheurna Gorge, but at first you think it's the boasting of schoolkids. But it's a much deeper problem. Few say anything in WC because they don't want to be targeted. My main has said things about it in WC, but like everyone else is told to suck it up, or to go quit the game, or any of a number of charming things. The other problem besides the bullying is the hate in the WC. There is still server hate, but also everything from nationalism to gay bashing.

I do want out of this server but I also want to know if there is another server that R2 can guarantee won't be merged with these people. And if they have any intention whatsoever of supporting the players or if they also think we should suck it up or quit the game.

[ArchangelZero7]

sadly this isnt something R2 can fix. we have to, although its already monopolized so that we cant do anything. Im under the radar leveling myself and my alt so I can actually compete one day, but thats a way off

[DahTeddy]

zaen and teddy both left which was surprising for me because zaen had just taken top spot b4 merge and teddy was loved by everyone(except maybe alpha). you know its bad when those kinds of players leave. and cheruna did kind of completely take over....although i dont do pvp events anymore so i guess i cant really say anything

Hmm, It wasn't just me. Although im sure you know now that almost everyone from Amethyst's top 20 quit. It was pointless to stay there. But i'm pretty sure that now everythings okay on Amethyst. And i'm enjoying my new server much better. XD Safely in 4th spot. GM of the top guild. Soon to be in 2nd spot since two of the people ahead of me aren't rebirthing for a while. Everythings much better than it was. Everyones moved on from it. ^_^

[R2703115]

Those would have to be serously large servers.

[allcode17]

LIFE IS WAR,!!! SO YOU MUST FIGHT LIKE NAZl!!! SEARCH & DESTROY!!! KILL THEM ALL!! BRING THEM TO HELLL!! KILK!! KILL!!! KILL!!
hahahaha we already merge in other server its not easy to be friendly in other server, i dunno why they have different rule or something. server are just like country. i dunno why, but its exciting.,. just kill them all! bwahahahah!!!

[missbank]

they did the same to tinosia delta.. we had just gotten rid of a bully, and it was peacefull.. but because it took so long for ppl to see he was an ***, they just quit
playing or moved to another server.. now they merge us with a server that has low population, because they have a bully... now 2 servers are gonna die off.. im not going to start a new toon.. I'll just leave, find a new game and take my real money with me.. what they need to do is get rid of the bullys... cause if I leave I leave permently..

[Ozzyman12]

I have too agree when there r event for killing Elites and get seeds most of the higher players go and afk over the lower players that were just there training.

[austinchicken]

Server size decrease is pretty terrible, I agree that we need to have a massive server merge. That would be awesome. Possibly there might be too many OP players for lower lvl players but.... whatever. Would make the game funner. Then there is the lag issue...
