Hello,

We’re preparing to launch something new on L2network.eu… ⚠️
 

A premium SponsorAuction system is coming soon — introducing a new way to gain maximum visibility on the platform.

👉 Important:
Your standard fixed sponsor spots are NOT going anywhere.
They will remain available as always.

 

🔥 So what’s new?
We’re adding a limited auction-based premium spot that will stand above everything else.

This special placement will:

Appear above all servers in the toplist
Be visible on every page of the platform
Deliver the highest possible exposure

 

💥 And here’s the catch:

Only a very limited number of these premium spots will exist
Access will be decided through competitive bidding

This means:
👉 The most visible position on L2Network will no longer be bought — it will be won.

⏳ The first auction is opening soon.
Early bidders will have the advantage.

Get ready — because once it starts, competition will be intense.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


We've spent the last week rebuilding how your server pages work behind the scenes. Every server listed on L2Network now has a smarter, more discoverable detail page — and it's already pulling in better Google rankings.

Here's what's new and how it helps you get more votes and players.

⭐ Star Ratings in Google Search
Your server page now tells Google exactly how players have rated you. When someone searches for your server (or related Lineage 2 keywords), Google can now display golden stars next to your listing in the search results. REAL Stats- Live stats


📖 Auto-Generated Server Summary
At the top of every detail page, there's now a clean intro paragraph describing your server in plain language — chronicle, rates, age, rating, and a call-to-action. It's built automatically from your existing server data, so you don't have to write anything.

Players landing on your page see what your server is about within 2 seconds, instead of having to dig through tables.

 

❓ FAQ Section on Every Page
Every server page now has a Frequently Asked Questions block answering things like:

What chronicle is this server?
What are the rates?
Is it L2OFF or L2J?
When did it launch?
How is it rated by players?
These are auto-generated from your server settings — no work for you. Bonus: Google sometimes shows these directly in search results as expandable answers, giving you even more screen space in SERPs.

 

📈 What You Can Expect
Over the next 2-4 weeks as Google re-crawls every detail page:

What    Expected change
Star ratings showing in Google searches    Servers with 5+ votes get ★ stars
Click-through rate from search results    📈 Up to 35% higher
Long-tail keyword rankings (e.g. "interlude x100", "high five pvp")    📈 Better positions
Mobile click rate    📈 Improved with new layout

The whole site to be honest

We could create a much better layout, but we would need to remove the large left and right banners to free up more space. That would allow us to build a much cleaner and more modern design. As you may have noticed, most toplist websites use a very similar architecture because of the banner placements I mentioned earlier.

also tried many different designs before deciding on this one.

That's not what I mean. I mean your site is full vibe code, you can identify by the bad UI literally.

 

Looks like you used Codex, am I right?

The site has been online since 2013, and we’ve been using Bootstrap from the beginning. The last major update was in 2021, so I don’t even remember Codex being around back then 😛

Everything on the site is hand-coded, my little boy.

You know that AI can generate/write bootstrap right ? LOL

 

2021:

Why does it look different then ? if the site was last time upgraded in 2021 ?

Bro is lying lmao

Of course AI can generate Bootstrap now, but back in 2021 nobody was building sites with Codex like today 😄

And yes, the site looks different because we kept updating the UI over the years — colors, cards, spacing, dark mode, mobile tweaks, animations, badges, and layout refinements. That’s called maintenance and redesign iterations, not rebuilding the whole backend from scratch.

The core architecture is still the same Bootstrap-based structure we’ve used for years because toplist websites need specific blocks and banner placements to work properly.

You can literally compare both screenshots and see the evolution. One is the older 2021 version, the other is the current polished version after years of manual improvements.

No AI magic involved, just hand-coded work and years of updates 🙂

And honestly, if someone thinks every Bootstrap website is AI-generated now, then half the internet was apparently built by ChatGPT before ChatGPT even existed 😂

You don't get it what I am trying to say.

Your UI is simply ai generated, entirely. The current theme what you are using.

I am not talking about the backend.

It's just my personal preference/opinion that I think your UI looks really bad because it's AI generated and whoever worked on it didn't give a single fuck about how it looks, or at least take the time to rework the UI that AI generated yourself.

 

AI is just bad with design and your website is a proof of concept once again.

But how would someone know what looks good and what does not look good if one doesn't have the design skills or knowledge.

 

Whatever, good luck with your site.

You’re free to dislike the design, that’s subjective and totally fine. But calling everything you personally don’t like “AI generated” is not really an argument 😄

The funny part is that the layout constraints you’re criticizing are actually intentional design decisions for toplist platforms — ads, rankings, visibility blocks, sponsor placements, and high information density. This isn’t a portfolio landing page or a SaaS dashboard where you can leave half the screen empty for aesthetics.

Also, AI-generated UIs usually look generic, over-animated, inconsistent, and impractical for real long-term usage. Our platform has been evolving for years based on actual user behavior, server owner needs, CTR optimization, and functionality requirements.

You may not like the visual style, and that’s okay. But confusing “I don’t like this design” with “this was made by AI” just shows you’re judging emotionally instead of technically.

Anyway, appreciate the feedback. Good luck to you too 🙂

If it is AI-generated, you used a really shit model. Even AI wouldn't be able to generate obvious errors like the badge misalignment.

 

I do find it funny, however, that out of everyone to accuse you, Splicho, who used AI to fully generate this https://nimeracp.com/, is the one to talk.

    • New Release World & atmosphere A complete dynamic weather system has arrived, with Clear, Light Rain, Rain, Heavy Rain, Storm, Snow, and Windy presets. Rain and snow react to roofs, wind moves foliage, lightning illuminates storms, exposed ground becomes wet and develops puddles, and snow builds up and melts over time. Weather includes Low to Ultra quality levels and advanced controls for precipitation, wind, cloud cover, lightning, surface wetness, puddles, and snow. The game server can also select or restore the current weather while local quality settings continue to control rendering cost. The weather can be controlled from the server with custom packets. For more details use Shift+Alt+P. Enhanced lighting now allows authored lamps, fires, and other light sources to illuminate towns and interiors. Lights can pulse, flicker, blink, and strobe, flames produce warm dynamic light, and lamps display depth-aware halos. Remastered emissive surfaces are now supported, beginning with illuminated windows in Giran that glow and cast light into their surroundings. Broadcasting Towers now use their correct original scale and animated rings and glow effects. Map, quests & navigation A complete quest journal has been added, with active and completed quests, expandable stages, descriptions, requirements, item progress, quest inventory integration, location controls, and quest cancellation. Quest objectives now appear through flashing minimap and world-map markers, an overhead directional guide, a notification button beside chat, and rotating quest symbols above eligible NPCs. Server-directed radar markers now work across the live minimap and world map, including the original overhead guidance effect and arrival behavior. The original tutorial system now works, including scrollable tutorial pages, animated illustrations, the flashing question button, tutorial links, and movement, camera, pickup, and sit/rest progression events. Server-opened town maps now display their original artwork and the supplied player marker. Shops, storage & items Personal, clan, castle, and freight warehouses now work, including deposits, withdrawals, stack quantities, fees, weight and capacity previews, tooltips, and the original warning and empty-storage dialogs. Account freight now works through the original recipient picker and delivery window, allowing items to be sent to another character on the same account. Multisell exchanges now work, with paged recipe lists, product details, required materials, quantity selection, warnings, and server-backed completion. Manor seed purchasing is now supported through the shop interface, including availability and pricing. Inventory items can now be dragged to the trash button and destroyed after the appropriate warning or quantity prompt. The original in-game calculator now works with mouse and keyboard input. Community The Community Board is now available from the system menu or Alt+B, with Home, Favorites, Region, Clan, Memo, Mail, and Friends sections, retained navigation, forms, scrolling, minimization, and server-provided pages. Characters, cameras & events Striders and Wyverns now render as fully animated mounts with the rider attached correctly. Striders remain ground-based, while Wyverns support three-dimensional flight. Characters now enter a proper falling state after high drops or airborne dismounts, with falling animations and server-authoritative landing and fall-damage handling. Players can now sit on authored world chairs using the correct sit, wait, and stand animations. Server-driven special camera sequences now work, including target tracking, interpolation, duration, widescreen bars, and restoration to the normal camera. GM camera mode and server-authorized ///fly movement are now supported. The original 102-second Kamael teaser sequence has been restored with its complete slideshow, transitions, panning artwork, localized subtitles, and narration. Hats, masks, circlets, and other hair accessories now use their authored head placement and correctly adjust the character's hairstyle. Timed server confirmation dialogs, short-duration status effects, regeneration previews, and the seasonal Christmas Seal presentation are now supported. Interface & performance Character creation has been refined with corrected description wrapping, clipping, layout, and name-entry presentation. Tutorial and NPC dialog windows now use polished proportional scrollbars, improved HTML layout, and correctly sized illustrations and controls. A new independent 3D render-resolution setting offers Native, 720p, 900p, 1080p, 1440p, and 4K choices while keeping the window, HUD, text, and FermaUI at native resolution. Major rendering optimizations reduce unnecessary work in local lighting, shadows, visibility, exposure, bloom, post-processing, and GPU diagnostics. Download from the launcher you have installed, or at https://updates.fermata.gg/ if you don't have the launcher. Fermata Light Engine Preview All lights can be baked in the client, shipped to the users, and exported and imported as .femlight files.
