Are you guys happy about the ip block being enforced on countries that already have perfect world, mostly residing in the eastern continents?

I am

    Yes, and thanks to the IP block I might even spend some money on the cash shop.

    I don't know, I kind of have a "none feel" when I think of it more like an "oh"
    But that comes with nearly everything.

    Alien:" Amber, We are here to abduct you, how does this make you feel?" (sound affects go here)

    Amber: "Oh, um, okay I guess..Guess Theres no going back now."

    Alien: "Why do you not feel scared!?!"

    Amber: "no idea" *shrugs*

    Well I tell a lie, id be excited to be abducted by aliens, then id try take control of the ship..
    Wait now getting to the point of this post.

    I Guess I don't feel hardly anything towards it, accept "oh, okay"
    :B

    Trust me, you'll be glad there is IP block. I don't think I can handle another MY-EN.

    True, I most likely will. I just wish my sister would come here as well.
    She's thinking of wasting a bunch of money on the new items in the MY version which I told her was not going to be a good idea..

    I have a few others to convince also.

    I'm overjoyed at this. I played too many other MMOs where people asked constantly

    "hu is racecuit clam lider??"

    I'm sick of half the server not speaking english, and furthermore...

    Bye bye, chinese farmers! :D

    It IS international, in that every country is allowed to play EXCEPT for those who have their own version. Makes sense to me.

    Same as the malaysian company called theirs the international version at first then whipped out the "Malaysian english" thing.


    Its international just for the western users to enjoy the game in a comfortable setting

    The human race is more like a parasite, We live of the resources of the planet and give nothing back and slowly degrading it's production and dooming it to destruction.
    Though I guess your point about the human race being a infection also is somewhat valid.
    After all, we are infecting and contaminating everything we touch. Though there are those who are trying to make a difference.
    But in the end the difference will be somewhat minimal.

    But I guess I should get to the real point of this post, I always seem to go of talking about everything but the point >_>
    Oh yes I know what the point is of the post.
    *Captures and gives an infected kiss*

    :0 you like infections, consider ones self as infected.
    *wanders away*
    Now to convince sis to play this version with the IP ban thingy. (had to chuck that in somewhere)

    I left oracle about 2 months ago when the last possible challenge to WL fell (Myth) and could see that those guys were going to own the server soon - I've heard accusations that they're now driving the economy of the entire server now?..insanity :) The block is probably a good thing imo

    Letting pro players like that in destroyed the game for newbs just learning.
    Oracle has a new bunch on the map called Black.
    Ive seen allot of them with fairies and good gear. And warlord basicly owns EVERYTHING now.
    It's scary to see the map and nearly everything red, red like blood of the failed guilds and their dreams..

    It's a business decision, nothing more, nothing less.

    point 1 : This game is run by a subsidiary company owned by the Chinese company developping the game.

    point 2 : The Company gets money from other versions of the game sold in other countries.

    point 3 : The Company don't weant to see another localised version go down since it would cut down it's revenues.

    point 4 : To prevent revenue loss, they make an IP ban for countries already having their own versions.

    If they were to make more money without IP bans, they would happily removes them.

    Most likely Russia is, since they have their own version.

    The vast majority of MMO-playing europeans can speak english. I didn't say anything about Europe. It's entirely possible that you guys will be blocked, or not, I have no idea either way.

    Assuming that us Europeans won't get blocked, I totally love it.
    No more gibberish chat & names, which drove me out of the Malaysian version in the first place.

    They are only IP blocking countries that have their own PW server. And Europe doesn't have an official server.
    @IP Block: I'm neutral about it. I just hope they won't decide to block europe suddenly, should europe ever get an official server. Would suck to be kicked out of this server just because a local one opened.
    PW has been endless frustration for me #2
