Blaaaaaaaah 10-12-2007 10:11 AM

Was it the patch? You know how there was supposed to be that level 6+ requirement to shout or something... But wait, was there a patch? D:

Hessah 10-12-2007 10:25 AM

Lilian 10-12-2007 10:42 AM

Blaaaaaaaah 10-12-2007 11:03 AM

Heh, yeah, but I wasn't sure because I expected something to pop up making me download it or something. D:

Hessah 10-12-2007 11:10 AM

XD sry i'm a touch too lazy.. oh thats great! shall go for mara KQ next... XD

Zotius 10-12-2007 11:10 AM

But Mara still isnt' fixed. I just had 5 empty boxes.

Edit: The bots ain't gone. They're now advertising in Normal Chat. At least it ain't in Shout anymore.

That's not supposed to happen? I thought they were just being asses. D:

Enrei 10-12-2007 12:30 PM

Maybe they should do what they did to shout to normal chat. Raise the level to require to talk to maybe around lv. 3?

You cant really do that since there are alot of new players that usually ask for help at lvls 1-3. By not allowing them to talk, it could make some new players quit because they couldn't get any help

Zotius 10-12-2007 12:37 PM

Then noobies won't be irritating and ask.
"How do I talk?"
"How do I shout?"
"Where to start the tutorial quest?"
"I have a +10 broadsword. I sell you 10s you want?"

Yeah, there are alot of noobs who just act like morons. But for some, this may be there first MMO and they might need help. If they cant talk, they cant get help. But, every MMO I've played, I've just figured it out on my own.

There could be a separate chat for new people who might need help. Or they could just come here:)

Zotius 10-12-2007 12:44 PM

Or maybe they could read what it says on the loading screen and press F10 in game.

What kind of people do you think we are dealing with:rolleyes:? lol

Zotius 10-12-2007 12:57 PM

Erm 10 year old kids like my brother?

Blaaaaaaaah 10-12-2007 01:16 PM

Lol. o.o No talking till level 3? That's real harsh, lol. No need to punish the real new players just because of bots. D:

Zotius 10-12-2007 01:22 PM

Yea I guess. But they should really read the help that the game itself gives. At the very most ask on the forums but it just keeps annoying me when stupid people who think I'm a noob come up to me and go

Random Person (RP): *Adds me as friend*
Me: Do I know you?
RP: Nope. What + is your sword?
Me: +5. Why?
RP: Oh I have a +10 sword. You want it I'll sell it to you for 10s.
Me: *Joins KQ and teleports away*

Dynamics 10-12-2007 01:38 PM

Oh no, a full 20 minutes without talking. What do I do D:

.o0O0O0o. 10-12-2007 02:18 PM

Shoo, when teva was down and tevanians flooded apoline. GM mistwhateverhisnameis broadcast whoever from teva spammed will be banned from both servers. So why don't they do that? Or is it too big of a job to do that?

Yosei 10-12-2007 05:20 PM

Maybe they could just make it so you get kicked if you spam the same message over and over in a certain amount of time.

MagesRequiem 10-12-2007 05:30 PM

The bots are still there. But now they just spam normal chat. I saw a funny bot with the name "FucG_M" which basically means "Fuck GM". Guess they aren't too happy about the shout thing, eh? Anyways, whats so bad about not having newbies talk until level 3? I think thats a great idea. And if they quit? Thats fine too. We've got enough morons, 10 year olds, etc. on Apoline and all they're doing is causing me to lag. Besides i'm tired of hearing "How do I talk?", "Where do I go to fight monsters?", "Where do I buy skills?", "How do I move?". Either that or implement a PvP feature so I can kill me some newbies.

Loveless 10-12-2007 05:49 PM

About the Mara KQ... is it possible that you got HP potions and it just went straight to the stack you already had? So far I've done two since the last 'patch' and I've gotten Blessed Lix. I'm still level 17 and didn't do much damage nor did we finish that fast... and I still got a small reward while our tank supposedly had an empty box. Weird...

Not possible. Whenever you get items, whether from KQ box or by trade, they always go into a separate slot even if you have an existing stack with room. They must be manually merged into the existing stack yourself.

rokaraged 10-12-2007 10:27 PM

Either way...

Don't hold your breath they WILL BE BACK....

Valentines 10-12-2007 10:40 PM

Normal chat spammers.

Enrei 10-13-2007 02:07 AM

Well getting to level 3 isn't that hard. And I'd think if they try to speak, a little notice in the chat box appears as "You must reach level 3 to do that." It reminds me of the game, Scions of Fate in which they did that to prevent most gold advertisements.

Zotius 10-13-2007 02:43 AM

Yea it isn't hard at all. Just kill a few slimes and boom lvl 3.

Ryoji 10-13-2007 03:08 AM

It did make me laugh though seeing a bot spam normal chat.

Elrohier 10-13-2007 03:44 AM

That it did. But really, ites really easy to level to ten even. Mabey an hour or two.

Zotius 10-13-2007 03:45 AM

No need. 1/2 an hour can already. 1-5 10 minutes. 5 - 11 20 minutes in KQ.

Ryoji 10-13-2007 03:50 AM

They could try and limit amount of shouts per minute. Or something of that sort.

Blaaaaaaaah 10-13-2007 04:32 AM

Of course it's easy to get to level - and that is only for people who are actually experienced with MMORPG type of games.

Think about it. There are people out there who probably never played these type of games before, and Fiesta could be their first game. Not letting them talk when they really need the help? That's mean to them. If I started playing a game in which I'm clueless in, and finds out that I can't even talk to get some help, I'd stop playing that game instantly.

Like I said before, why punish and torture those who didn't even do anything? >_>" Yes, we have enough noobs and such, but we can also lose valuable players.

Odin 10-13-2007 04:42 AM

I see them spam in normal mode in roumen now

rokaraged 10-13-2007 04:45 AM

New players that walk into roumen thats filled with Bot spammers will get a VERY BAD impression and leave...
If anything its dementing the growth of the playerbase as well as the economy.

KY_Jelly 10-13-2007 11:08 AM

only 5 to 8 actually.

MagesRequiem 10-13-2007 07:26 PM

Like someone already stated, when they go to talk have a message pop up that says "You must be level 3 to talk". It may annoy some players but it will pretty much kill off the normal chat gold spammers and they've already taken care of the shout chat gold spammers. Besides, who cares if we lose a few players? The ration of good to bad players is like 1:10.

Blaaaaaaaah 10-14-2007 12:49 AM

Well, since it's so easy to get to level three, I'm sure the bots can get to level three rather easily themselves and then continue spamming anyway.

Its easy to ge to level six but you don't see any of them doing that, now do you? So i'm pretty sure its safe to say they won't. Otherwise they need to add an ignore feature. Which actually should've been the first thing they ever added to the game.

Blaaaaaaaah 10-14-2007 03:41 AM

I'd say that if they really implemented that no talking till level 3 function, they might actually go and level it. They're not levelling to 6 because they still have a way to advertise via normal chat box. Of course, I could be wrong. I guess it all depends on how desperate they are.

Triumph 10-14-2007 03:45 AM

Gawd Blaaaaaaaah has like...1.4k posts. >_>

OT: Imo, the patch was bad. When I make scrolls now, I have to sit and watch this level 1 spam normal chat at 2x the speed about some obscure gold farming site.

And their grammar was (is?) terrible.
