wow. I just had an idea for killing 2 birds with 1 stone.
Make Ins scrolls and Randomizers make-able using the profession system instead of Expanders and Expander ins.
this fixes both the profession system imbalancing problem and the Ins and Randomizer problems!
and if WP is concerned about losing money add better farming tools(that increase gathering amount by like 3~5 or give more exp) to IM mall with 10day limitations like the IM furniture.

A credit card info being stolen is a big trouble, now, how many ppl have had this problem? (in this server) ...never have seen anyone posting something like that before.

Making the insurance scrolls/randomizers tradeable is a good idea.

So does this mean this game is going back to Pay 2 play?
I mean
even shop licenses are restricted so unless you make a new char you cant sell anything.
Enchanting to +5 takes a crapload of gold and enchant dust.

This is pretty sickening in terms of not spending all your cash in game.

My question is why are WE being penalized for that one dude who keeps on spamming REAL money for gold on his website.
I think i had to waste 3000 souls to change my weapon from advanced to special.
Then to get it to +5 without enchant scrolls is murder/miracle
Anything after that is 99% fail without enchant insurance.

So we need medals for NOT buying IM to promote free players like an enchant insurance boost that makes it 50/50 odds of success would be nice



My solution:
Is it not possible for the tech team at Dragon Saga to block this guy from their servers or implement a level restriction?
To me its a very simple concept
You only see these people at Port of the Winds
they're almost ALWAYS level 1
so why not raise the entry cap to lvl 15
then just limit the time you can spend in port before job change.
And if it gets REAL bad
put a ranged IP block on anyone who made it to lvl 15 in a time thats practically impossible based on the way you run your game engine.

To me this seems logical and should get rid of the bad while keeping most of the good.
At which point they need only pm an Admin

I highly doubt that they'll implement something like this, where a medal would give even playing field to the hardcore IM buyers. Even then, it also penalizes the players that basically buy IM once just for something.

And I could've sworn that someone has already said that IP can be changed, so they can get around that. Maybe it was my imagination.

you know if you don't use ins for SC or Enchanting it's a 50/50 chance right?

There's a reason why they are doing this.

They've tried banning, IP banning and so forth already with a kawaii game called Ragnarok. They've tried most other things. At the end of the day, it doesn't work because Gravity is a tiny company without the manpower to compete against bots.

Gravity was stupid to not deal with it earlier. I honestly doubt they have a problem with IM selling. It's just really something that should have been done privately not screaming via megaphones. Trusting a complete stranger is just asking to be scammed.

In the case of bots

They could make Insurances tradable
what happens?
Bots will trade sell
get banned
chargeback Gravity.

If the cost of Chargeback > the amount of normal players selling IM then Gravity loses money on the game and closes it down.

In the case of Scammers
what happens?
buyer gets scammed
buyer sends ticket
there is no equal trade because it was a gift
gravity has wasted time on something they can't do anything about

Less time for Gravity to deal with people who have real issues.

The issue here is that Buyers were not vigilant with whom they were purchasing things and expect to be babysitted by Gravity for their stupid judgement calls. Gravity has said no to that so that there is no Grey area.

Just do insurance gifting privately and accept the risks between friends or fill out their surveys for your WPE if you can't afford to pay.

That was my poiny, if they were scammed its their own fault, they knew the risk and gravity SHOULDNT take this action, i tried do 1 day of surveys, here is what i got:
first day: 102 energy
second day: 66 energy
after this: PAYMENT ERROR!
So its a low ammount energy we get from a repetitive and boring, and free thing.But try to live in this game with 300 energy per week, and someday it will run out of surveys, so surveys is not a option at this time.

Maybe we can get the daily quiz thing as said before, or even a vote thing so we get some cash as people do in private servers?anything so the ones who cant afford it can get a regular or even small ammount of energy to convert or already some ingame im points.

Yes, mister i do play this game, let me tell you, your question was seriously stupid.

Im gonna ask again, cause you seem not to understand what im saying, have anyone complained about a stoled CC info? (in this server at least) i know its a prevent measure, but i guess you with your long time living in this forum reading each thread 24/7 you must know a thread with several complains about someone stole their CC info, you really do dont you?

Dont make me reply again, im too lazy to answer you, mister noone. So dont waste your time again.

Same to you stormhaven, if you are stupid enough to visit risky sites (selling gold sites, porn, etc) you deserve to be hacked. enough said.

Go try to intimidate someone else.

Why do you assume it's people on this server who get the CC info stolen? Do you know what the internet is? or hackers?or key loggers?
from your posts I can assume you don't.

edit: also i've never had my info stolen cause I'm not stupid with it.
also how is anyone in this thread intimidating anyone else?
