    something in my system is conflicting with pwi huh? funny, I've been playing since Oct and never had this issue til about 2 weeks ago and nothing on my system has changed.. and as stated above.. it's called a SERVER ERROR for a reason.. it's not a system error.. it actually says "Server Error. Please logoff and try again" or something to that effect.

    This is normal for everyone..

    People in HT experience it at times.. I do usually when i run in from north arch on the bridge then turn into west arch going towards daily, and I ALWAYS get it before i enter the entrance. it got annoying but has stopped [so far]

    Yep, the price for the mats you can farm from mines is ridiculous. Like double the price of the way harder to acquire mats that drop from mobs...

    But i would be cautious about the dragon orb price. I don't wanna see half the server running around with fully refined armor and weapon set...

    ok.. I'll agree with that.. I know personally.. if I could get like 100 of each mat for 2G I'd be buying mats from the cash shop all the time.. cuz it would cost 880k (figuring 110k/G) to get 20 subs as opposed to 1200k to buy them at 60k each

    We could all learn a lot from crayons, some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names (like chartreuse), and all are different colors....BUT they ALL exist very nicely in the same box!

    They have those prices to ENCOURAGE you to farm your own mats! b:chuckle

    Happens a lot on Heavens Tear, more liekly to occur if you run in to fast, or drop from high hieghts. If I summer sprint, then foxform into W.Archo I can guarenteed get a Server Error. Might be connection issuses, as I have 4gb ram, and a 1gb Vid Card, but alas am on a wireless network. latency/connection issues?

    @ ppl asking for teleport stones to be cheapened theres 1 good reason they will likely never reduce their cost. When you pay to tele you are using what is known as a money sink. A money sink is a way to remove money from a game. (not calling you stupid, just saying it because not every1 knows what one is and it took me awhile before I learned about them myself) All games have many money sinks. If they don't have enough then everyone becomes rich because the money just stays in the hands of players. Its also the reason why you can't go straight from any spot to any other spot, its to increase the amount of money this money sink removes from the game.

    When my memory went bad all of a sudden weird stuff happened. I couldn't even download PWI to install it. Kept giving me a file corrupt. I finally got it installed by putting the download on a network computer. After a while of playing the horses appeared as big ERR and a lot of the chars were not appearing on my screen, or it would take forever.

    After a while my system just kept getting a disconnect message over and over after a couple minutes..

    You know what? Replaced my memory and things worked just fine. I work as a I.T. support spec and believe me.... It's not server side that's causing the error.

    and here, I thought the money sink was having a 33k repair bill after grinding in fb89 for a couple of hours

    To Reiterate, in case anyone was INTERESTED:

    After teleporting to West Archo, upon entering through the gate, etc. let your character sit a moment before summoning your mount, turning into tiger form, activating summer sprint, etc. This, at least for me, has helped me AVOID server errors.

    If you are impatient, might as well just force quit and relog if you think that's faster.

    Not asking for them to be cheaper as they are likely as cheap as they will get. Just suggesting that they should be.

    lol.. I used to be the CTO (Chief Technical Officer) for an ISP and believe me.. there ARE things that the server can cause that have nothing to do with the workings of your system.. I mean.. if you can't get your email because of a 535 error, or because of a locked box, your mail client errors out.. but that has nothing to do with your system.. it's the server causing the error.. if a web server has a configuration error.. when you goto a page, it could cause an error in your browser, but that has nothing to do with your memory or your computer's configuration.. it truly is a SERVER ERROR.. besides.. if it was something in my system.. don't you think that I would be one of the only people having the issues as opposed to a plethora of people complaining about the same problem?

    I can tell though that you work as an IT support tech, because most IT support teams aren't willing to take responsibility for their own errors, they always push it off as the other guy's problem

    Well its not a disconnect, and its not my connection flickering. It states Server Error. Please log on again. or Somethign to that extent, it seemingly doenst load up all the mass amount of chars on the screen fast enough, so stops trying.

    I concur. Even at lvl 48 my repair bill after just an hour or so is almost 7-8k. I sink plenty into the "money sink" I'd like some of it to be sunk back into me!

    Lol, thats why I said they have many. Some are really good/nice ones like repairing armor because you get something back from it, but then there are several just kinda tossed in there to take money in any way they can that won't have players up in arms.

    I think they leave some stuff up too long. I've been on the game around 4-5 months. I've seen very few new fashion and very few new mounts. The panther needs to go,so does the cub. The price of them would go back up some and be worth having and selling. Same with some of the fashion items! Perm or not, I think anything more than 30.00 for any mount is pushing it. Crazy ppl who buy them too!!! Ok ... I'm not my own definition of crazy. Sorry if any of you are!! But u kno what I mean.. they just charge too much for some stuff! Perm or NOT!!!

    actually.. there is.. we can all either stop buyin stuff.. or find another game that may or may not listen to our requests..

    don't get me wrong.. I like this game.. but it really needs more high-level content.. I mean at my level, after doing all my quests, I'm at like 13% so I have to grind for 87% of 5.4M XP.. and I only get like 500 xp per kill.. that's nuts.. more quests would make it more appealing.. I don't mind grinding, but when it's the only thing that you have to do for 3-4 days straight, it gets more than a little boring
