Um... NCSoft Korea are in charge. NCWest are only forum moderators. I guess they can be GMs as well but apparently they don't want to do that.

Of all the people that are going to read this, nobody will be able to help you in any way whatsoever. NCWest devs are NOT in control of these servers, the korean team is. All these worthless forum mods can do is wipe our tears but we will never stop crying until we finally give up and move on with our lives. Best thing you can do is move to different server or stop playing L2.

Take as much time off as you want guys. There's barely any people left here anyways.

Guys and gals, let me tell you straight up. THIS SERVER IS A HUGE MONEY MAKING MACHINE. IF YOU SEEK PLEASANT EXPERIENCE THEN GET OUT AS SOON AS YOU CAN. IF YOU WANT TO STAY THEN BECOME PART OF THE "GAME" AND START BOTTING. Thank you. Have a nice day.

You are absolutely right my friend. This actually opened my eyes and everything makes sense now. Let's be honest guys, Lineage 2 is an old game with old fans. Nowadays, mobile games is where all the money is at. It's not cost-effective for NCSoft to invest in a game whose fans age together with it. Most of their playerbase is over 25 years old and, frankly, most of them are no-lifers (a.k.a. bots). Ambitious and intelligent people move on with their lives and spend their free time more productively, instead of fighting with the money-making machine NCSoft has created. I stopped playing this game a month ago because my friends (who are more experienced) noticed a flaw and decided it's not worth it. I only visit the forums to find out if the server is going to get any better to convince my friends to come back. But I absolutely agree with OP and realise now that the server is not gonna get any better. This was NCSoft's plan all along, to squeeze the last dollar out of the no-lifers (a.k.a. bots). Thank you for reading.

Adena sellers are allowed to do anything they want. They run this server! Nobody is going to investigate anything or bann anyone involved. Have a good night sleep.

I think this is a bad idea and NCSoft will do it!

There should be another option - "I quit this game ages ago. I only read forums for the drama"

When did you start believing in what NCSoft is saying?

Good luck in lvl 40+ when mobs give you the same adena as the ones you're hunting now.

You're not alone matey... FeelsBadMan

I love this place so much I wish mobs gave 0 exp.

I'm not a dev but is it not pretty straightforward to just launch the same thing as before on a new server? Obviously the new UI and other graphical additions are super cool but the core and principles of the game seem disrupted. Why not update the visuals and just relaunch the same thing? Wasn't this the idea in the first place?

Lineage 2 is a pretty good game. It has so much potential to be a great game but i guess its creators have decided that it's not worth spending the necessary resources to make it great.

Thank you. I'll try to get something out of this.
