I hope you guys will be better prepared to ban any returning bots.
Or else the servers will be too full again & people wont be able to log-in again.
nothing against the korean random?

I give it 1-2 hours after maintenance and it will be full again....
Well there goes my hopes for a Tersei 2 event before chara creation was reenabled! =(

lol they removed 1-50 bots, chronos still same, best spots (grind, quest, farm) are still taken

so no they wont be prepared, they never were, and ye they just show "work"

all they need to do tomorrow is go to Newb quests and see

i gave up my hope in bot free game...
Anotehr maintenance with no fix nor good event, just another day, hope Lindvior is close.

Why? WHY?? do you ban so little? did you only ban thjose you can detect using **** or smth like that? those spaming pm bots on town selling adena are there everyday, why dont you put ingame GMs that can see them and use the ban hammer (more a ban feather nowdays) please Do smth is killing the game.

whats better all this **** happening or ban the all so more ppl come to play and ergo more revenue for the server? I am sure those stupid items for pay to win are bad omen, mby they felt need to do that cus game do so little money, you can get unemployed for failing banning as you should.
2 weeks later and all weve gotten is store updates.

In all honesty i was happy to see the character creation shut down, however i assumed(foolishly) that it would lead to something bigger and it did... Reopening transfers to already full servers. But i guess its a priority to get monies, its not like anyone that actually plays L2 anymore that ncwest is willing to catter unless theyve got their credit card on speed dial.

I guess the point of this post is when are yall going to do a maintenance that actually fixes issues?

I'm probably delusional thinking ncwest or its staff could ever do anything right.
What about the celestial skill obtained from underwear? still exploitable? will we go through another olympiad session with celestial exploit or better say permanent celestial inside olympiads?...
I want to log in, but I'm at the hospital.

I'm fairly certain things are a little better. It's not like they didn't stop anything.

You can't catch all the criminals, just like cops can't catch all the criminals irl. Some manage to get away.

Imo should stop complaining and make the best of the game of you'll not have fun.

Very bad decision Juji. Lags have finally stopped a bit, and areas aren't bot infested. Naia/Chronos will be ruined within a week, as bad as before.
Playing in Bartz. During the last month, the only thing that I can see is, hardcore players being sick of the whole NCwest situation/bots/fail maintenances/lack of interest from company side, leaving server and looking for other games to have fun with.
Seriously, its not about fun anymore.. Pleasure has been lost, somewhere deep behind all these pixels.
Its about how much patient, a legit player can show for this company..
People do pay for NCstore thingies, all good with that, money needed for hosting a game which is F2P, that's clear enough..
But 0 points of service/"development" improvements, when at the same time we can clearly see
that there are players still paying this company, is smthing that we can't live with.. Seriously.-
Show some kind of improvement in the company side of these servers,
or let it die, and look for new jobs, so that we look for new servers..

Stop ruining this game.. Do something ffs.. Wake your head officers up..
I know these posts are not even being noticed by Head Officers.
At least I can still hope about it..

Its not about the drama.. Its about getting more and more sick of this situation..

These few words for your files,
from a legit hardcore one being around since c3..
I actually saw an Othello using no shots in Fairies. I guess it is time to turn on character creation so he can use shots. I hope they have good stuff for NCCoin tomorrow.
*** k... Full servers coming. Emo rage gamers breaking their keyboards coming. 100000000000000000000 times using pass to enter coming. TY.
Well I just hope that I could join the serve. :D
Now boters have a hard work to do!!!

Take register of a new guiness record making fake accounts and toons level 1
I hope you guys will be better prepared to ban any returning bots.
Or else the servers will be too full again & people wont be able to log-in again.

++this
omg. i don't uderstand one thing.. one thread full of tears that they can't create new chars. also i'm was angry when they decided to disable new char creation on naia.. not for boting, but just for xp toon to 76 and delete after. just for crp.
now, when staff decided to turn on char creation again ocean of tears....

+1 whooo ^^
I don't get how they not banning those summoners who soloing under GC or in swamp in Naia? They are farming there more than half year now, u have to be dumb not to see that they are bots... I can say I seen some places a little cleaned...but guys, srsly? There are those bots who standing there for ages! Or stakato nest...so many of them there...attack them, and u see how few 99's from evi or DH coming into 80 lvl place :D Just to look for CW :D It looks like that only botters are genius here, not players or admins. Most funny, how they are pretending, that they don't bot...especially Donred from Einh**** clan :D Well, GF...one solution left - bot bot bot
Btw ppl, how **** random server (private) can make better bot protection than hi end programmer team from NcSoft? It's not rly funny to fight in oly or siege against party of scripters :)
Btw ppl, how **** random server (private) can make better bot protection than hi end programmer team from NcSoft?..
It's more that no pro scripters are interested to set their scripts for a random ps, which won't bring any real income.

I am talking about bot programs, u can use scripts on them. Nc has absolutely no bot protection to break...bot programs as l2d, l2w and tatata all working here, it's much harder to let them go on russian servers, or even in quite some private servers. If NC would enhance their bot protection they would not have to hunt them. I don't care about **** bots in swmp or so on, they don't disturb me...but in oly or mass pvp like siege, when one clan thinks they are better than another...but it's just because of some computer automatic help...not very nice :) We may all use scripts and so on, but is the game created for that? People with huge ego just use those stuff, mb because they don't have anything to be proud in reality... If **** russians can enhance their server protection that just some of ppl can break it, I believe NC can too..just they don't want to. Why?
just they don't want to. Why?

No bots = no income from NCStore
why do we need transfers to naia? as if naia isnt full enough already only thing that made diff past week is

few bans happend people logged off their train matter of time before all trains pop up again
+ lol transfer

gz full server when kids come out of school always had to hammer login when i came back from work :(

funny part is that you might as well could have copy/paste a post from C3... thats how long these same complaints drag on ... Zzzzz...

Wow.... So legit players do not buy runes to exp? The person cheating needs the exp and not the guy actually grinding right? Intelligence in this forum is a fleeting rumor spread well by no one because we all accept its full of idiots..........
If **** russians can enhance their server protection that just some of ppl can break it, I believe NC can too..just they don't want to. Why?

you're a fool to think there are no pvp 3rd party soft on Inova servers nor any bot/exploits going on there..

the difference is that they have on top of Frost active GM's patrolling their servers as well Bot Hunt events for the players so only the smart bots/cheaters stay alive there..

the majority of bots/cheaters on the NCWest servers are incompetents that only managed to get away with it cause of inefficient GM's which Juji is claiming to be something of the past going forward now and we, the players, will hold him accountable to that bold statement as we all know the bad track record NCWest has on this subject.

let's see where we are 2 weeks from now, let's give Juji & co a chance to prove our sarcasm wrong ;)
Well, no surprise here. The lag is back. On a plus side, I did manage to make a toon. You can close it down again, please. thank you.
Omg booo hooo, cry me a river, people need to stop bitc**** and complaining, people cried for two weeks oh my I can't create a new toon, bad bad NCSoft. now people are complaining oh how dare you turn creation back on blah blah blah. If you don't like what they do don't play, go away, do you really think your attitude is actually going to have NCSoft sympathize with you. Just play the game and get over it, they are going to do what they need to do or think they need to do, and do not need anyone's permission to do it. This game has been around for what 8 years now? I played back in c1 and c2 and the bots were just as bad and the content was a lot smaller. Honestly I don't know why forum admins even let this happen.

L2.eu don't put they top bots on the hall of fame like this:
http://boards.lineage2.com/showthread.php?t=238368

Or the congratulations to first AQ of Shillen:
http://www.lineage2.com/en/news/events/server-achievements.php

"Belldandy, Gella, SweetFire, Pow, Gys, Loukia, Fireball, kleitw, TaniaX, Shilen03, Tanke02, Bishop02, Moonrose, sorcer4, sorce12, sorcer13, sorcer16, sorce19, sorce22, sorce24"

The minority of bots/servers sell adena and make lineage 2 more than a game, a real job with real profit. Just see chornos and naia heroes (i don't know other servers reality), 90% of our heroes use 3rd party tools fo fight. Like iAgno (chronos) words "I farm 8b each week".

While I can understand your point about Martelx, I don't get it regarding AQ

Any clan who wants to farm AQ efficiently know how to do it. So why bothering finding names for characters you will log once each 36h ?

When I farmed myself AQ on Aria, trust me we didn't care of the name of the characters. We all used alts. Like they did.

True...but then we get the jackwagons such as yourself that rage over other peoples posts. Full Circle!

No one understand martelx, obvious. Is a secret.

You farm the AQ with 20 characters solo? I play sometimes with my ISS in nostromo macros to target my target and attack but I need 2 computers to do this, you play with 20 computers and 20 macro keyboards and 20 hands to controll all at the same time?

"no I just create a macro to use skill, I press the macro button, press alt+tab, press the macro in character 2 and do it in all 20 characters, finaly I back to character 1 and do it again, looping 87 times and finaly ant quen die."

Some mutants of chernobyl can manage 20 characters with the same time due to radiation effects (real x-man humans).

Martel exp lots of times like of hero of chronos weiniethepooh, just read title "martelx tatics": http://pt-br.twitch.tv/mandachumbo/b/342870206

I think a little number of players know how to beat 99 in a little time. This secret is locked in a box, in pirate boat, in the deep sea. Caribbean pirates search for exp box. Maybe the secret will be shared in next movie of disney.

Truthfully, it's not the bots that bother me. It's really the undesirables that flood in as soon the game went to "free to play". I think the game should go back to subscription and keep the NCCoin store. It's safe to guess that people who really take this game seriously is willing to cough up 15 bucks a month with an option to buy extras to help them level faster, look flashier and have a peace of mind knowing that angry kids won't play the game.

Legit from OB still enjoying the game. It's a hunch, but I think you're doing it wrong.
Also I haven't completely lost faith in the NCWest Staff yet. They aren't incompetent, they're just understaffed and are dealing with a lot more problems than Innova.

Mind you Innova is completely independent of NCSoft's jurisdiction so they don't have to follow the regulations set by the ******* in Korea. The Korean devs are really the ones at fault here not NCWest.

If Korea would just give NCWest some independence and control, then perhaps they would be able to make some changes to better suit the servers here in NA.
Where did you read it was once guy doing it ?
What reason to you think not was once guy doing it?
You believe in fair play when see this names?

About you martelx love, he beat 99 in human play style just watch martelx pvp's movies to see how to play a fair game, movies like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_mSfnrWsZt8

There is no secrets about him and the professional habilities to fast change archer stances. Obvious for game masters this don't prove anything like player is a bot, for people playing this game, this is so simple, only another pvp script.
Teh rage too stronk

i tell u, dont post this video on this forum, this video got my main forum account banned.

btw martel dig 99 in more or less 4 months before kartia was put on the game. with 1 month i manage to 90 and i had health problems, cos somedays i didnt sleep at least 4 hours in order to try keep up with this guys. today i m retire of l2, just trying to make my equips turn into adena, but ppl prefer unid junk than good stuff.

i prefer spend my time looking at clouds instead of play this rmt/bot/3pprog *hit.
