Yes and no. After so many years grinding has become tedious and some players keep playing only because they can bot. This is especially true because of server closures, re-openings and wipes. Others still enjoy the gameplay and others have stopped playing because of botting. Of course, another part of the community which bots is involved in rmt and does not play as much for enjoyment. In my experience, GMs in private servers who care eventually ban botters and keep gameplay at healthy levels. The problem is that L2 is an old game and that the newer versions that NCSoft created did not become popular. Also, private servers did not do a good job at maintaining themselves. Don't worry though, Lineage III is coming soon! Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dSTahTUVYao TLDR: Some have left because of botting while others have stayed because of botting. People who enjoy playing the game can keep enjoying it.

If memory serves me right OVH servers have inherent protection against ddos at no extra cost.

:) I'll write a guide for you.

Mind you, I'm struggling to understand what you're writing. I have put on the table detailed counter-arguments about every single thing that you've said, yet you've failed to even explain how an image of a lamp compares to that of a couple. You claimed that you study Quantum Mechanics and Medicine, however you then said that you do not study in any educational institute. You don't even know what studying is and what it involves. In the end, you are just an uneducated troll; off topic and out of context writing irrelevant stuff. Unfortunately, you are confirming more and more the characteristics included in my description about you and I feel less inclined to read your gibberish. The floor is yours. R.I.P. your clients. *drops the mic*

1) I'm pretty sure that Maxtor will care the moment you start disturbing his forum. You are right, you don't get re-banned here. Punishments are pretty loose. 2) Since you claim that you are studying Quantum Mechanics (probably a small chapter in one of your courses of w/e you're studying) you should know that there are people with anime avatars on github that commit quantum code for quantum computers. Furthermore, generally speaking anime fans have a wider perception of the world and are more open minded than normies. Here is a good article for you: https://www.lifehack.org/articles/lifestyle/10-reasons-why-anime-nerds-are-highly-satisfied-life.html abstract: "Many anime shows have distinctive art styles that incorporate colors in beautiful and vibrant ways. Being exposed to all of these colors regularly can positively impact your mood, or maybe even help you pay attention to the vibrant colors around you in your daily life.". 3) There's something called "Stylometry" (the study of linguistic style) which is used by e.g. FBI profilers in order to find out one's personality, mood, etc... through his/her writing style. Now, due to the way that you wrote your text prior to my reply it was evident that you were in rage mode. Even a 5-year old would figure this. You don't even need any level of IQ, just animal instinct. Talk about monkeys! 4) Since you are throwing the acronym "IQ" left and right you should know that IQ or Intelligence Quotient has nothing to do with the ordinary meaning of intelligence. There are dumb people with high IQ. Studies have found that people with high IQ recognize different and more advanced patterns in weird geometrical shapes of some sort, etc... Only mainstream sheep think that IQ equals cleverness. Therefore, the acronym "IQ" does not even make sense in the context of your text. An ancient Greek saying reads "Half knowledge is worse than ignorance". Hmm. By any chance, do you mean watching documentaries in youtube by "studying"? How is it possible that you study two relatively different fields simultaneously? In addition, no one who has wisdom and knowledge would ever try to show off like you tried to do. Even so, your quantum metaphor was not only badly written, it was also of no interest and/or not funny. At this point I have to ask, are you 12? 1) Artistic and art in general are abstract concepts. They are not zeroes and ones. There are paintings which do not portray anything recognizable and which were randomly painted, but are called "art" and they sell for thousands or even millions of dollars. You confuse subjectivity with objectivity. What you think about a subject is your opinion and does not necessarily mean that it is commonly accepted. Try again. 2) In case you didn't know there are many different genres of anime just like movies and TV shows. There are animation series that have nothing to do with what you described. Different plots, different art style (small/big/no boobs small/big eyes, etc...). Not to mention the meanings and life lessons that you can conceive by watching Japanese animation. It only works on smart people though. On the contrary, if you take a look at movies everything stays the same. Just by knowing the leading actor's name you know who is going to die and how the movie will end. It's America. Process food, process people. In English, these "deflections" are called counter arguments. What about your lamp? Have you read what EQ is? FYI I don't sell "adrenalinebot keys", I write scripts for adrenaline; and guess what, they sh!t on your engine. 1) How come a person who is mature and has academic knowledge of Quantum Mechanics and Medicine refers to others like that? Even the private message that you sent me involved cussing. You insult other people in every text that you write, you provoke them and act impolite and indecent. 2) These fields that you brag so much about advance in developed, contemporary countries like China, USA and Japan. If you are studying e.g. Quantum Mechanics that means that you search for studies in foreign universities' databases and critically read them. (If we're talking theories, even I can tell what Quantum bit and entanglement are and how atoms spin under that theory) Thus, the English language is required in order to comprehend these studies, not to mention the mathematical formulas and equations which require advanced knowledge of mathematics. Judging by your grammar, syntax, wording and stylometry fingerprints you can't even read a doctor's prescription in English, you are immature (maybe 15 years old), impatient, short-tempered, close minded, toxic, gypsy-like and racist. I would not even accept your engine for free, because programming languages have been created with the English language in mind; and therefore, you whose English level is medium to low, are not eligible to code anything good by definition. Deflect that.

Normally, when you get banned for spam/flame and you make a new account you should be rebanned as soon as you are identified. Maxtor is doing you a favor by giving you a chance to rationalize yourself. IQ? You are talking nonsense. You are just on rage mode saying negative stuff about everyone and everything, c/p ing words from google you have no idea what they describe and using them to form grammatically and syntactically incorrect sentences. By the way, artistic does not mean complicated. Sometimes, the simplest of things are better. You are judging on the grounds of personal preference, while you are far from being objective. Just like some people like cars, other like lamps. I get it. Since you talked about artistic, the images that you mentioned display 1) a girl and a boy hugging and 2) a girl's facial expression. They invoke some feelings; maybe they remind me of my ex or w/e. What kind of feelings does this lamp you uploaded invoke? Maybe it's time to start leveling your EQ. As for the PayPal block thing I meant to say "warning". Edited.

You are wrong. I think that the image is very cute and artistic. It does not implicate any sexual orientations and does not display any kind of sexuality. You are just being racist and discriminate against people who enjoy mature art. The fact that you linked topics for everything except the one thing that has to do with your case is arguably funny. I'm sorry for your losses and your warning. Maybe you can ask for a review politely; in a mannered way? From what I conceive, if trash talking was bannable you would have been banned long ago. When a client reports you, as a seller you have to disprove the client's claims with valid proofs. The person who decides or comments on your case is not to be held accountable. With your logic maybe we should ban Maxtor. In my understanding, Maxtor is most likely not interested in your business or your "1500 clients" as you claimed. The point of having mod hierarchy is to delegate power and involve designated individuals in the decision-making process, whilst being an Admin who is as neutral as possible. I wont continue quoting more trash talking material, that's it. Stop discriminating against anime fans and LGBTQ individuals and reporting people who have nothing to do with anything of essence and start satisfying your clients. If you are "not bad" as you claim and you are a good seller clients will follow you anywhere mxc or not.

:) At least you can defend vs skids! I don't see why this "solution" is a good idea, because proxies, being proxies, will add delay to client-server exchanges. Even with geolocation the proxy will still have to transfer data to the gameserver which adds to the aforementioned delay. It is worth to use this system only with very good machines and geolocation connections. This system becomes even more unstable with ddos. It makes sense to redirect players to healthy proxies, however, the attacker can also redirect his/her bad traffic, especially if you transfer his/her character to the new target. Imagine players with loading screens popping up every 5 minutes during siege. At least in 2008 we knew when a server was down, whilst the siege was cancelled! Therefore, it can be inferred that this "solution" may sound and be better than others from a technical standpoint, but the players may still suffer, whilst it is to be used with expensive equipment. To me, it makes more sense to rent a good server of a big company while having hundreds of anti-ddos servers protecting me than integrate this "solution". More code = more problems. I would only use this with many many proxies on a server with 5k+ active players under certain conditions. PS: The OP is neither advertising nor selling, yet he/she discusses a system that we have not seen. It seems to me that he/she reveals more and more potential vulnerabilities of that "solution".

There are many tutorials in this forum regarding compiling and they are fine. The only things that change are versions. Instead of old eclipse, java, etc... you will have to download the new ones. Also, some projects have switched to MariaDB instead of MySql, but there's no big difference in setting it up.

No problem. From a conservative perspective you will be able to handle at least 500 players with 60 Mbps. When, for example, certain actions happen in-game the server and the client exchange more KB/s. If you have 2 players walking together the server sends info about each player to them. If 1 more player comes, the server will have to broadcast the first two players' info to the third player, but also the info of the third player to each of the first two players. Imagine if those three players teleport at the same time to e.g. a Raid Boss area. The server apart from player info (IDs, coordinates, etc...) will also have to send other packets as well. Sometimes one player will require 5 KB/s at other times 20 KB/s, not to mention that the server also has to download player info and requests, so it's not that simple!

Assuming no one is ddosing you ~1k players. Each player requires a few KB/s. The server just exchanges bytes or in other words text with the clients. 10 KB/s on average per player means 7500 KB's (60Mbps) / 10 = 750 players, but that's the no delay theory. If you add some hundred milliseconds delay you could handle ~1500 players.

You have to confirm whether the bat is calling the correct class and its path.
