I went by NPC prices and removed 15%, then I checked stalls and would lower or increase the price from my base price based on the prices of others. That combined with trading every Saturday for the whole day gave me a decent amount of Gold.

edit: now I npc my items.

if you're not totally against it you're part of the problem

Van, you noob. Shouldn't have moved this into plvl-loving GD. Gawddddd.

PS: Rofl @ lulousnab. I do often see to many TE guys that've been plvl'd a bit to much.. lol.

I dont believe that party system is bugged, I believe that is on the game on purpose to have the highest number of high level players because joymax make more money from high level players than low level players. Right now I'm powerleveling my buffer char on the caves and she is leveling 1 lvl each day with 3 gap and no ticket, so isn´t only botters that can take profit of party system.

Haha. These screenshots made my day, first they abused the "bug" for few months, and now they want to get rid of it. Like a botter botting to 90 and then sending bug reports to get rid of the bots. You made my day Venus players.

Everyone in that screen has a level 90 char. Rather than see them lose interest and fade from the game for lack of things to do, they plevel alts to mess around on, all chinese chars.

Not to mention the fact that no one said it wasnt being done, we all know it is. We allow legit plevel and never said it was against our rules. The problem isnt there, but in the fact that most of our low level players are being caught up in bot PLing and the laziness that PLing causes. When the gravy train runs out at level 6X or so, they just quit playing cause leveling by hand isnt something you just start doing for the first time with a level 60 char.

I am tho quite impressed with how obsessive some people are. I am just awed by how much Avalon and everything they do impacts the game. If Fly so much as twitches it makes a topic 5 pages long in the Venus section. ^^ Thanks for making us feel so special.

Edit: *tsk tsk* Hybrid Euro Lulous? LOL WTH were you thinking?

Lol, that was recent; they just changed their emblem.
@NB, Bladers&Nukers? >_> Looks like Fly&Co. will get their fair share of solo.

It wasnt just recent, it was about 20 minutes ago or I wouldnt be responding to this thread. Its not like I read here unless someone points out something I should see.

Avalon is a joke.

I will never, ever level another Chinese again. Train twice as much for half the gain. No way, never play chinese again, too boring and gets slaughtered by Euros.

I <3 my cleric.

How is that different than saying... Everyone in that screen has a level 90 char. Rather than see them lose interest and fade from the game for lack of things to do, they bot alts to mess around on, all chinese chars. (well obviously it is "legit" oh wait!!! )

I didn't see you disagree with these posts.

and ps, have you ever seen a capped hybrid euro warlock/cleric? didn't think so, no room to talk.

How can Fly say this:

yet allow plvl

If you're not part of the sollution, you're part of the problem.

ah at last someone from Avalon says it!!!! chinese should be deleted lol.. no no no, they should kept for the bots

Be warned: I will brandish my spear across your forehead for that blasphemy!

Ill tell you why we dont enforce it. lol Its hard enough to keep people from messing around with bot programs and third party BS, stuff that is not legit.

Our suggestion to ask JM to fix the game to prevent it will indeed prevent it for everyone. We never said it wasnt legit, never said it should be bannable. We know that Avalon union, OverKill union and BlackHand union powerlevel chars for various reasons. No one is trying to stop people from using an existing function of the game as it is right now.

We want JM to consider viewing it as a bug and fixing it. I do believe I have said this over and over and over again in this thread.

Im beginning to think that ppl cant read well anymore.

Oh yeah, Argonaut, the leader of your union was in this party for several days in the ongs. Ive known him since he was like 13 years old. Im glad that TheEMPIRE was there to help him GP farm for you guys. lol You are really barking up the wrong tree tho.

if you think it is a bug, then why wouldn't this be exploiting a bug?
or
Joymax has complete rule over what legit means, they say in the guide that this isn't how partying is supposed to be. Are you just going to await back joymax's response and just allow it till then?

Then already Powerleveled characters will be ok, because they didn't do it when it was bad. I just don't get how it's not bad all along.

I understand what you're saying. You completely disagree with powerleveling and think it's a bug you can get joymax to review/fix. That is why you are waiting to enforce what you knowis wrong.

If someone else started this thread everyone would most likely agree.

So while you're trying to brand members of Avalon Lulous what do you think of plvl? Or does your ong pfarmed character say that you want it to stay around.

When trying to keep bots out and people legit plvling can be a problem. Capped characters have no impact since you all hate us so much anyways, while new players who get plvled end up being beyond broke, end up in bot plvls, leech in parties, play their chars poorly, beg and cry all day for plvls, and create shitty guild members.

Yea I'll do it cause it's something to do, while it's still apart of the game. I will still have a already capped character and can take care of myself. I still don't like the idea of it but it's apart of the game.

That's way different than saying "oh well botting is around so I'll bot and say everyone shouldn't" That's a third party program and illegal while plvling is in the system.

Say you want to fix some bug with the trade system and want players to help send in bug reports. Are you all going to stop trading and jobbing until it's fixed? I highly doubt it.

i lol'd totally forgot i powerfarmed myself at ongs.
But then again, did i ever say i agreed with the topics original post?

I'm not trying to brand anyone of anything, just asking, is it legit to take adavantage of a bug whether it's programmed into the game or not? Is this even a bug like the original post made it seem?

cause to be honest, If bots and shiz are eradicated i don't see why plvl would need to be, just legits helping other legits level, that is if i saw a post from morningdew stating that this WASN'T a bug. It's only harmful because people take horrible advantage of it, which i see and know corrupt isn't doing.

Just i guess are there legit vs nonlegits ways to take advantage of a bug?

No we dont KNOW IT IS WRONG. You are imposing a moral thing on it. We arent. We are just saying that powerleveling isnt really good for the community. Mercs werent good for the community either. Did that stop me from using them? Nope. I merced up like everyone else to keep my trades alive. Was I glad to see them gone? Hells yeah. Even though I know members of my union, your union and every other legit union in SRO have used powerleveling at some point, will I cry to see it gone? Nope. Will I help send in a bug report and write about it on forums and send them emails? Hells yeah.

guess i just assumed you thought it was wrong since in the original post it seems like it suggesting that it is wrong.

I don't play Euro and I don't accept powerleveling, so this game died for me the day people stopped playing Chinese by hand. When I played on Venice, I was in a nice small guild with a handful of friends. We would see who could level the fastest, run around with job suits on, do noob trade runs and get popped, explore outside the boundaries, party when we got SOS drops, etc. Things like that kept me going, and they were fun because we were noobs. When everyone I knew moved on to WoW, started botting, or disappeared, I quit playing and started messing with the files. These days it's impossible to find a guild full of noobs because everyone is so farking obsessed with getting capped, so I don't even bother.

the noob am i? don't cry about me getting powerleveled kid..



Everyone that gets powerleveled gets something for nothing, so that backfired didn't it mate.

You kind of just got downed Necrobat Krysis has a good point and i think you should just drop it.

Since Avalon is one of the well known and popular legit union shouldn't you guys set an example for the community instead of only talk about it?

Eh, I say just don't plvl in the good peg room. Ks the bots in the first room, yesterday we were crammed in the tiny room with a nuker bot. =(

No offense to anyone. But to many of TE get plvl'd. Most of them can't party for shits. 5X BHA > 5X avalons.

And lawls, we all laugh at lulous's hybrid. Even though he like...buttrapes 64+ pvping. o_O (<3 u nab)

ANYWAYSSSS BACK ON FRACKIN TOPIC.

So who wrote up the bug report. Email pl0x.

The only people in TheEMPIRE that get powerleveled is that one small group of Chinese. Its always the same people, they all have capped chars. You dont party with those people ever.

plvl pls

fail...

what drives me crazy is, I was taxi-ing at Ujuji and people join the party and are getting leveled (free some of them) and they have they nerve to say "go to penon. i need penon." thats as bad or worse as saying 10kplz

The game sorta lost its life with powerleveling, I have to admit. Although so many people are used to it, specially people with capped chars planning a new character. Thats how I see it.

PS:
For those haters out there on Avalon, try managing a union like they are, and then talk trash. Self contradictory at times, but nontheless thinking abroad and suggesting ideas for what might improve the game. I had a taste of what it meant to control a legit union powerhouse, and it's not easy, dealt with constant harrasment 24/7.

But yeah, treating powerleveling as a bug would really hurt people unless they thought of it to a even bigger problem. I like whoever posted "Powerleveling is only a symptom to an even bigger problem." Just look at ksro too lol. Sp farm a person to 100 cap YOURSELF and then level it 1 - 100. That would uh.. be very inconvenient, but that's passing out on a huge portion of the game. It's just making fcking chars to pvp with.

There's been like a billion and a half topics about this and they've all ended up in.

Bot plvl = you suck.
normal plvl = plvl plz.

Don't play the "but but we both get something while doing nothing!!" game. It's the not the same.
