L2 servers are not sexual relationships, it's not trashy to try many of them to find the right one. I mean what am I suppose to do, know everything about the server from the servers' description? There's tons of stuff you can only know when you actually enter the server. Why should I be punished with having my files infected with trash custom textures because admins of the server didn't enclose on server's site that he's selling RB jewels in donate shop? I actually salute Mythras' admins for giving just a system. It was a right decision.

How's that a bad thing? I mean would it be better if they had tons of ugly custom textures for donate shop or what? Is having a Dusk Shield on a server an actual achievement in 2k18? Or would it be sounds from Unreal Tournament? Or the best thing of all - a custom loading screen? I actually much prefer when server has only system - I hate when servers completely f up your game files with all the custom trash so you have to reinstall it everytime you want to try a new server. Big +1 for only system file.

First off, zero point in releasing a low rate Classic server - people who want to pay monthly fees are on official servers, people who don't are on Classic.club, and those who for some reason don't want to go there are on Dex or some minor projects. No opportunity there. But there's definitely plenty gold left undigged in the Classic mid rate/high rate area - so far all the mid/high Classic servers opened were basically no names - in other words, people who realized there's this opportunity, but they simply didn't have the advertising power of the big names to really make it. The whole L2 private servers scene basically waits until one of the huge servers decide to make the "classic" recyclable H5 midrate with all the GM shops/ alt+b / npc buffer etc., just with Classic files. The reason is simple - Classic is vastly superior to H5 in practically every conceivable way when it comes to servers with midrate settings - whether it's balance (it was good on H5 but it's near perfect on Classic), the ways to improve (e.g. on H5, enchanting your armor just gets you some p.def which is often negligible - on Classic, getting your set to +6 and more is vital since it opens a whole new options, which alone gives a game hundreds of hours of extra endgame time), the UI, the oldschool vibe (extremelly important on a 10+ year old game) and loads of other fixes and improvements. People are simply used to the H5 since there hasn't been a real opportunity to migrate to any 'relevant' Classic midrate. Once they do, there won't be many people coming back to the H5 since there won't be any real reason when it comes to the chronicle. But while it's obvious that Classic midrates are the future, I'm not sure if I'd really invest time into making one unless I'd have a huge advertising budget, because people first need to learn that Classic is better than H5 from a big project, as I mentioned before. If I was serious about it, I'd probably offer a collaboration with some of the big projects; also many dead projects have their social network sites with many followers, and their owners often have their players' emails - a huge advertising opportunity there, but as always it's all about the money :)

~Deleted The post with link is sticked to the top, under the original post.

Fuuuuuuu... I actually started downloading like a year or two ag, but then I got interrupted with something and told me self to finish it later... Now I check the file and apparently all I downloaded was a front page with like 5 links top. Such a shame. Wayback machine is also pretty cool but unfortunately it's not 100%... Lots of links are dead and sometimes it's missing the interactive image, like with game updates - e.g. if you click on game updates -> Chronicle 5, it only shows the first page but you can't browse all the changes.

Can't access the shop, did you guys move the website? I'm definitely curious at least.

Welcome, nice to have you here ^^

Not sure if it does any good to be honest, I'm fairly sure these topsites watch closely for any funny voting being done, and even if you somehow manage to put some decent votes through, there'll always be XY servers above you who will pay for the votes

You want Interlude lowrate = you want http://www.l2dawn.com It's not opened yet but if you want a stable and honest server which is going to last extremelly long, it's very much worth the wait. They're reopening soon and the exact rates are not known yet, but the last server was 5x and I suppose the new settings will be about the same.

Welcome mate

Still online btw. Great server.

Classic definitely has a potential, but another lowrate? Cmooon maaan :/ The players are screaming for a PvP classic server, but admins keep coming with lowrates, but everyone who's willing to spend 5 hours a day to get 1% is already playing on some other classic lowrate, either EU offic, RU offic, classic.club or whatever. I mean good luck with the project neverthless but I'm 100% sure you'd have infinitely more success with more midrate settings (25x rates, NPC buffers etc.)

Definitely recommend for anyone looking for an honest server to stay around :)

Im not a developer but this sounds interesting, can anyone provide a vid of how it looks? :P

Agreed. @Maxtor add the banned group please

Congratz on the baby :) Welcome.

Eyo, welcome :)

I heard they never wiped, so maybe you still have your old account active? Maybe if you forgot ID/pass you can contact admins to help you It's always better to have your own old acc :)

Never heard of it... What exactly does it do? Stacks buffs or something?

Yeah that I understood, I guess people buy the likes for the 'first impression' to get real likes going :)

Just curious, but how do these Facebook likes work? I mean are those some bot accounts / real people getting their accs hacked / real people joining some "get 0.01$ for every page liked" stuff? Also does it ever happen that Facebook removes likes acquired this way, or even suspends such page?
