      snake reacted to Reporter in [Interview] Mu3rTe   
      This interview is about Mu3rTe, one of the best players in our community and one of the most respected by most of the top players from our community, if you read past interviews you will find his name in the words of many top players interviewed from guilds who have been fighting each other for years. He is at this moment (the moment I started the interview) ranked no 1 on Soul Master reset rankings and Castle Siege Tank ranking, but what amazed me and made me want to take this interview is the fact that this player, on the last Inception, started very late, about 2 months from the start of the server and in about 1 month and a half he reached the 1st place. He is the only player I know who managed this performance, and I also want to mention that when he reached the 1st place, the top players from that data base had not given up playing actively yet.
      Reporter: "Hello, Mu3rTe, and welcome to The News Paper Hall of Fame !
      Mu3rTe:" Hello, Reporter and all other players that are reading this   "
      Reporter : " Can you, please, give us a description of yourself? Name, age, occupation, hobbies, etc. ? "
      Mu3rte:"My name is Bogdan, I am 31 years old. I am currently working as a 2nd mate on commercial vessels, hoping for promotion soon. I don't have many hobbies, but I like listening to music and playing DOTA or Mu. So far my addiction to DOTA is over, huh, finally. All that remains is this MU. "
      Reporter:" Regarding this Covid 19 pandemic, did it affect you?"
      Mu3rTe:"I was really thinking it will, but it seems that I was lucky, my family and friends are safe, my arrival home wasn't delayed, so far so good. Still, I am disturbed to see the many people who don't follow minimum precautions. "
      Reporter : "When did you start to play Mu Online? "
      Mu3rTe:"It was so long ago :)) I would estimate 15 years ago, but can't say I played properly until just few years ago. Many long brakes, since I was passionate about DOTA. "
      Reporter : "How did you find OldSquad ?"
      Mu3rte:"Some of my old buddies told me about it, they were playing for 2-3 editions. "
      Reporter:" Can you name them?" 
      Mu3rTe:" I can't remember 100% who, but it could've been either Psyke or Scheau, but once in game I found many familiar names."
      Reporter: "How much time do you spend/day playing mu OldSquad (average)? "
      Mu3rTe:"A lot :)) Roughly 12hrs a day. "
      Reporter:" Where does Mu3rTe nickname come from?" 
      Mu3rTe:"Nothing special, mostly to represent that when I come, all the enemy troops will die   "
      Reporter :"What nicknames did you have in the past?"" 
      Mu3rTe:" Always Mu3rTe in Mu, I have various alts, most of the time Bobolina, b0gdaN."
      Reporter: "Do you have any VIP activated? What types of VIP did you use since the start and why?"
      Mu3rTe:"Currently using Dealer because of the extra entry, if you have resources, 1 extra entry makes a huge difference, otherwise Hunter is better. In the first 2 weeks we had Hunter because lacking of the jewel of chaos. Both VIPs are important if you wanna be in top and to maintain there, the competition is tough, ok, maybe not so hard... "
      Reporter: " How did you and your perma manage to get in top since day one ?  Can you reveal us "the secret"?  "
      Mu3rTe:"I can't say that there is a secret, they just thought about the best strategy, meaning best kill speed and survivability, therefor 3 MGs. They wished I was a MG also but that can't happen :)) Since it's early game, it is obvious that who is more active gets the benefit. More than this, you must have a plan, if you have spare time you could check on test server that was opened early, monster's lvl, monster numbers, some spots have bad spawns, many small details that counts in early. The problem is when you want to stay in top, check where enemies are farming, what items they have, and how lucky you are to get timely spells. You could sell a fire burst with 1k credits.. outrageous but still some people did it   Whatever mechanics you may know, unless you test them, they could be different, since OldSquad is a hard-worked custom server and keeps improving. Other than all this, there must be a good atmosphere within the party, and if possible for them to be as dedicated as you, otherwise it will get stressful, and unhealthy environment. Another thing that propelled us further than any other time, it is because of the pull we made (not possible anymore), players cried about, complained about, ADMIN satisfied them. It was not a special thing to do, just you had to move your mouse, but I guess its easier to look at the screen and complain "
      Reporter:"  What about HoF rankings, how come that you got only 1 trophy so far  (on this data base)? Is it that hard?  "
      Mu3rTe:"I never cared about HoF, they just came one after the other. SM it is not a character that shines early, and it's very item dependent if you wanna have impact in HoF. So far it's hard because of the characters that get extra points, 220 points per reset is huge early, but no worries   "
      Reporter :"Since you are top no. 1 Soul Master player on reset rankings, and you were tank number 1 until last week, can you reveal us a few tips about Soul Master pvp build ? Can you reveal your stats ? It is early yet on this data base, but where should a newbie add ML points after he finishes quest lvl 3? "
      Mu3rTe:"This is to early to tell, all builds have weaknesses. It is not a fixed point for which you should aim, don't have many pvp performances except CC, but I can say that if you don't make lots of hp it is quite pointless. More important than this, you should focus on getting more resets so you can be more versatile without losing too many things early. ML is same based on what is required for your party during exp or during CS. All characters evolves and shines during different stages of the game, it is important to take full advantages of the situation. Myself I don't prefer lots of HP, I am an aggressive type therefore energy and agility. In castle siege it's a different story, because SM is so bad early compared to others, there are not too many options than to go for tanky stats so you can get full advantage of the characters. For now I am no1 at CS tank because ppl were afraid to focus me, not because I was immortal :))))  "
      Reporter :"What advice would you give to a player playing on this server for the first time, what should he do to get to the top places? How should he build stats on Soul Master for pvm  ?"
      Mu3rTe:"To reach the top from first time you need a strong and active party. Make all events daily, BC and DS are very important to maintain chaos balance early, always save entry for bonus time. Calculate and evaluate spots frequently, choose your best exp. If you wanna be PVM, you must rely on your party for the first few resets. Build plenty agi and some VIT for survivability, than top up energy. It is quite bad for hunting goldens early game "
      Reporter :"What characters do you think are the best for PvP ? And for PVM ? 
      Mu3rTe:" Overall PvP, considering later stage of the game, vitRF is the one giving me troubles and the most easy to play I could say. There are better chars, yes, BK, SUMM but they require little more skill. PVM It's another story and complex based on your playin style. Overall spot wise eMG is the choice."
      Reporter: "Speaking of permanent party... Can you tell us a few words about the importance of a permanent party on OldSquad, and a short story about how you and your permanent mates got together? Is this the best permanent party you ever had?" 
      Mu3rTe:" Perma party is important if you wanna enjoy the game to the fullest, and here I mean participating to Castle Siege. Without a perma party is is more challenging  to climb the ladder and collecting items specially now when you can only have 2 accounts per pc. It is not impossible if you wanna play alone, sometimes it can be more relaxing. To have a perma party many times can be challenging, unwanted and puerile dramas, stress and being on the edge... so don't forget that this is a game, we play for pleasure not to fuck our brains for crap.
      About my party, I was asked by mafy if I wanna play this edition, so here I am:) they have a bigger history behind, I only know mafy, Redbull and Russu, we played sometimes. I can't say that it's the best party I ever had, but so far it's the most stable, yes, some drama from time to time, but we are still the 5 people from the beginning, that is an achievement so far   "
      Reporter: " You are now a Hardcore member but some "voices" tell me that in past you were a Squadron and a GROM member, is it right ? "
      Mu3rTe:"Yes, I was in Squadron before, but GROM, no, very briefly 1-2 weeks at some point "
      Reporter : "Why did you left those two great guilds? What happened? "
      Mu3rte:" Grom nothing to say about, I was at some point I even forgot the reason, usually when I need to go for work, my char could get in the hand of other people, I left my account few times and some other got it, so maybe was one of those times..  About Squadron, last edition of inception was very imbalanced, agiRF was out of proportion, so I decided I should join the opposition in order to make things little more challenging, nothing hidden behind. "
      Reporter: " Do you think that Hardcore is invincible this data base ? Until now your guild has 4 wins in a row,, who is leading Hardcore during CS? "
      Mu3rTe:"I don't believe in concept of "invincibility" , I do believe in team play, active members and organization. As long those are here, everything is possible. Anyhow, the way the server is set-up, you can't win forever, I am sure we will lose at some point and there is no shame in losing, it is important to see how to move on. During CS, all  suggestions are open if we could benefit from them, but in order to not make confusion, it is better if just some people speak. Roles are divided beforehand, and we are adjusting according to situations. Still it's Mu.. it's not some badass strategy game   once the basics are learned, the winners are those who execute better. "
      Reporter :" There are rumors that Diamond helped HARCORE two weeks ago on CS, are they true ? "
      Mu3rTe:"I don't know who started rumors about this thing, but I am happy that there is more activity in CS, this way it is more challenging, from my knowledge, nobody from Hardcore asked any1 to do something for us, and I congratulate DIAMOND for doing their best and playing fair and square."
      Reporter:" On the last Inception Data Base, you started 2 months after its start and in about a month you reached top number one ranking, there are rumors that you didn't even have a permanent party when you started playing! How did you manage to get this performance? I guess a lot of people want to hear the full story from beginning to end "
      Mu3rTe:"Well, thanks to the system ADMIN designed, to catch up is so much easy. When all people have resets and almost instakill in DS and BC, even if you start late, build some tanky stats so you won't die and have full benefits from it. When people are 10-15 rr, you can make reset in devil square cause of the bonus exp. It was hard at beginning, you will die on all spots, but if you are active and come back, exp is easy also, when you start later, many party are disbanded so you can fill some places. For me, after 2 or 3 rr I joined Chukundah's party and I was dying on spot many times in karutan2, went bc6 few times got 1 hit, but didn't stop, perseverance and being active helps a lot. Also Gaffney changed his character to BK and he gave me his Sphinx set, it did help a lot, I can't say I was all alone. Later on due to imbalanced guild powers, I joined HARDCORE with mafy, we gathered some players from broken parties, some of them were much higher in reset than me, but exp was going smooth. Once I got some resets, I went full dmg build, and destroyed all events not many contesters in BC DS, some tried but... and this was it.. 2 months playing non stop basically :))"
      Reporter: "What do you think about last Castle Siege? How was the atmosphere in Hardcore? What do you think about Purge reconstruction? What about the evolution of Diamond?" 
      Mu3rTe : "Last CS was in top 10 Castle Sieges that I played, I am happy that more guilds decided to come, the fight for switches was very intense. We had some advantages, Diamond GM and his party was below 300 lvl, but they did a great job. The atmosphere in guild is as good as always, we were excited to play again, we had some missing key persons also, mafy, but we did good. I don't know about Purge, it just seems a different name, same people, maybe they will manage to refresh themselves, I had bigger expectations. About Diamond they look promising steadily improving, each CS having bigger impact, they hold the crown for quite a while and had huge impact on switches, I hope they will maintain integrity and play the way they did so far." 
      Reporter : " Do you read the News Paper ? "
      Mu3rTe:"Yes I read the News Paper, some articles are very entertaining   but got to admit, the dramas collects more views."
      Reporter : " Do you believe in superstitions? Do you think that the Castle is Cursed? "
      Mu3rTe:" I do not believe in superstitions, but I do think that your way of thinking can affect your lifestyle. I sometimes I am wondering, how can so big dramas happen, when in fact it was just some crap. Mainly the curse comes from people's mentality. "
      Reporter : " Did you see what happened to the guilds that held the castle? If it is not the "curse" (which can be defined by greed, selfishness and pride), what could it be to destroy the most of the guilds in that way?"
      Mu3rTe:"From what I notice, other than those 3 you just mentioned, there comes also the real life problems, that affects our mood  and lets say our sensitivity. One more could be that the problem are not addressed in a calmly manner and solutions are very often overlooked. People should see beyond problems, problems appear every day, but we have to pass over. If somehow MU creates problems for your life, better make some changes. "
      Reporter :"What do you suggest to improve on NewsPaper ?"
      Mu3rTe:"Fake news seems to be the key to our society, so maybe make more of those :)) "
      Reporter: "On a scale from 1 to 10, how much do you like this data base ?"
      Mu3rTe:"Many changes, many improvements, I guess it should be a 9 "
      Reporter: " What would you change to this server? What do you expect from the following servers?"
      Mu3rTe:"So far many changes satisfied my needs, at the moment all looks good. I don't have expectations, I just take what it is and make best from it. "
      Reporter:" Two guys from your permanent party are members of the council, what do you think about this project? Do you, mafy and Endorphin talk about council often?" 
      Mu3rte:"The project is very good and the reasons behind are on point. We don't speak too much, we just have a laugh from time to time, when some councilors are frustrated when something is wrong just for personal reasons. "
      Reporter: "There are some rumors on the server that say VIP affects the concept of "play-to-win gameplay", what do you think of these rumors? Is a player who is active able reach the top without donating? Do you and your party mates donate/donated? " 
      Mu3rTe:" I like it that it keeps improving, and slowly slowly getting to that point as a "play to win". Still, VIP affects a lot, but why I like this server is it that you can farm your credits for VIP quite easy if you are active. Myself, as a player who never donated, I am the proof that you can be top without donating. This edition maybe, my party donated for me at the first week so I wont drag them back   lucky me. From what I know, they only donated first week "
      Reporter: "I have 5 challenges for you, do you accept them? " 
      Mu3rTe:"Yes, go ahead "
      Reporter :"Challenge no 1:  I need the names of the 3 players you respect the most on OldSquad and the names of the 3 you dislike the most on OldSquad."
      Mu3rTe:" mafy, Makiavelli, no third one   I dont have dislikes, maybe from time to time some personal vendettas. "
      Reporter: " Challenge no 2: Tell us 3 things you like most about our staff team, and 3 things you don't like about them!" 
      Mu3rTe:" I like ADMIN cause he tries to improve this game, Gion and Reporter doing good job, nothing else. I dislike that Gion is always in a hurry, sometimes he doesn't have time to give rewards  "
      Reporter:" Challenge no 3: Tell us 3 things you would improve on our server and top 3 things you like the most" 
      Mu3rTe:"I like the stage system the most, giving a balance sentiment so therefore CS are more enjoyable, various times I played on other servers there was a huge discrepancy. I like the CS system, this way you can enjoy 2 hours rather than 5 ending minutes. I like the automated system for events giving a fair chance for all players. I can't say I would improve many other things, since ADMIN is doing a great job implementing our thoughts and ideas. He comes with great ideas also. "
      Reporter: "Challenge no 4: Due to the fact that you were a member of the most important guilds on this server, call us in order which are the 3 strongest guilds you have been in, with details about each one, of course." 
      Mu3rTe:"Well, I would say that Squadron was the strongest guild overall, accumulating all past editions I played. I played there also, but it was a grim atmosphere, many afk times, but they were gathering people to come play at CS. Hardcore comes second, being a relatively fresh guild, I do like that people are active, hunting and doing events, and you can always find somebody to chat if you want. On third place, might be GROM but they were shady, even resorting to cheats, can't say much otherwise. "
      Reporter:" Challenge no5 :I need you to share with us a "dirty" secret, a shameful and funny incident that happened to you playing MuOldSquad."
      Mu3rTe:"For sure there are many as such, need to jog my memory here   I could say the most funny was, When I went in vacation, my party wanted to surprise me and lvl up my w3 wings to +13 or something, unfortunately, Makiavelli forgot to put talisman... and so I was without wings:)) spent like 1 more month without, trying to find w3 +lk. " 
      Reporter:" Thank you very much for time and patience, I wish you GL on all your plans!"
      Mu3rte:"Without fun there is no sense of playing it ! GL to you, Reporter! "
      This was Mu3rTe's Interview, one of the best players from our community, I am happy to finally do this interview because I wanted to take it since last year ! 
    2. Thanks

    3. Hype
      snake reacted to ADMIN in A new feature is now live   
      A new feature has just been added on the server: "Anti-mobs-pull".

      From now on, if a monster does pass the 7x7 range of his initial spot, it will be teleported back to its initial coordonates where it was spawned first time.
      This will *hopefully* stop several unhealthy mechanics:
      Pulling monsters from other spots to your own party spot to gain extra EXP, increasing the gap by a lot between very active players and less active players. Pulling monsters from other persons spots (by accident or intended) that would cause exp lose to that party. Mobs running out from their spots so newbies being confused when they reach a place where a spot should be, but no monsters can be found. Pulling "harder" monsters to other persons spots to get the spot "for free", after the mobs does kill them. Note: This feature is disabled for events monsters, invasions monsters, bosses, etc. It only works for basic spot monsters. 
      We believe that this feature will make our gameplay more healthier for everyone involved, very active or not.
      Please let us know if you find anything wrong related to this.

      snake reacted to ADMIN in Patch 4.2.2.0 - 06.10.2020   
      Release date: 06.10.2020 at ~17:00 - After the small server restart.
      News:
      The Castle Siege from Sunday will unlock the first rewards:
      Discordian Apple + Test of Humility for winners, GM reward as the extra reward.
      Due to the early game (and that most of you won't farm Relics too soon), the spot from LoT (Discordian Apple reward) will be based on monsters from Kanturu2 instead of Relics.
      The spot will be updated to be based on Relics after the last CS reward is unlocked. 

      Due to the fact that nobody won the 1st CS, OldSquad will remain as Defenders for this CS and you only have 3 spots as attackers, based on the amount of Sign of Lord you register & the CS score calculation formula (based on Webzen).

      Changelog:
      [UPDATED] BoK+3 Goldens released. [FIXED] Demonic Items asking for more stats than it is showing. [ADDED] New spots: LostTower7: 3 new spots (32 122, 21 207, 37 190) LostTower6: 2 new spots (9 33, 29 31) LostTower5: 2 new spots (111 57, 83 27) LostTower4: 2 new spots (115 117, 104 137) LostTower3: 3 new spots (122 220, 126 179, 132 206) LostTower2: 3 new spots (245 167, 199 192, 190 214) LostTower1: 5 new spots (208 37, 219 57, 244 82, 244 45, 244 16) Note: Make sure to update the client via Launcher to have them marked on mini-map as well! [UPDATED] Removed the global cooldown when clicking Bibi (Event Qualifier). Now each cooldown is individual for exactly the NPC clicked, and it is set to 3 seconds. The only cases when you can click the same Event Qualifier and get registered is when another player clicked it and it rejected his registration because he's already registered with 1 character, but you'll have to wait the 3 seconds cooldown. On any other cases you can either register instantly or the same NPC you clicked was already clicked by someone else before you and will disappear in 1-2 seconds. [UPDATED] Reduced LostTower Traps damage. [ADDED] Now after each kill on Duel it will also show the killer HP & SD left (in percentages). Note: This is available only for Duel Room 1 from Colosseum. [UPDATED] Instead of spawning on Atlans, Rabbits will now spawn in Lorencia. [UPDATED] Now when you are in 14x14 range of an invasion monster you won't be able to drop items from your inventory (namely, to drop potions to prevent the loot). The permission to drop items will be given back 5 seconds after you leave the monster range or 10 seconds after the monster dies, if you remain on the same range. Note: Currently this does apply to: Goldens, WW, Cursed Dragon & Kundun. [FIXED] Guild Masters guild chat problem. [FIXED] Raven (DL Pet) stopping from attack after few minutes of using a different skill, when DL is under level 400. Note: CMD build is still just "for fun", we don't recommend going for it as it is nerfed to the ground. [Probably-FIXED] The rare sub-servers crashes that would cause an instant-reconnect and a small roll-back. [ADDED] /reconnect command. Because some of you asked about the old /dcfriend command to use it like it was working before (to reconnect a character) for things like Party Master change, etc. we've added it back as a different command. You can use it just like you use /dcfriend, and it will reconnect a character as long as you know its password. Command is /reconnect CharName AccPassword. + Other small fixes/adjustments/improvements.

      snake reacted to Reporter in [Interview] No1LiveEr   
      This interview is about No1LiveEr, one of the most active players on Phoenix, and a key HARDCORE warrior, you can find his name on Phoenix's website Rankings even after he did quit playing weeks ago. He is also a very respected player on server since you can find his name on last interviewed top players like Crucify or Chukundah. I was trying to obtain this interview since Phoenix mid life time and we finally synchronized, so, let's turn it up:
      Reporter: "Hello, No1LiveEr ! Welcome to the News Paper's Hall of Fame !
      No1LiveEr:"Hello to you, Reporter and community! "
      Reporter : " Can you, please, give us a description of yourself? Name, age, occupation, hobbies, etc. ? "
      No1LiveEr:"My name is Roland, I'm 34 years old. I currently live in Germany, working in a logistics warehouse. Like hobbies: I like to travel, to play games on PC/PS4. I like contact sports like MMA / Box "
      Reporter:" Are you going to play on this new Inception data base?" 
      No1LiveEr:"Naturally, I will play with great pleasure. I can't miss it. "
      Reporter: "How much time do you plan to spend/day playing mu OldSquad (average)? "
      No1LiveEr:"Somewhere between 6-7 hours a day "
      Reporter : "When did you start to play Mu Online? "
      No1LiveEr:"I started about 16-17 years ago "
      Reporter : "How did you find OldSquad ?"
      No1LiveEr:"From some friends, they invited me to play on OldSquad. "
      Reporter :"What nicknames did you have in the past?"" 
      No1LiveEr:"The first nickname, I think it was .... Massacr3 (if I remember correctly), then No1LiveEr, Ezal0r. "
      Reporter: "Are you going buy VIP since day 1?"
      No1LiveEr:"100%, normal "
      Reporter: " Is it so important to have a VIP since day 1?" 
      No1LiveEr : "Yes, I think it's important"
      Reporter:" Since you are going to buy VIP from day 1, are you going to hunt the top and aim to be a stage breaker?"
      No1LiveEr:"Unfortunately, I never used to play for top, but I wasn't far from it either. As for the stage break, it is never known, there are always top, pro, active players who aim at that! "
      Reporter: "Do you think that VIP affects the "play-to-win concept"? Is it possible to reach the top without donating? " 
      No1LiveEr:"It does not necessarily affect it, it depends on each player on how much time he can afford to play. Along the way you can probably slowly reach the top without donating, but in principle if you want to stay in the top you have to make small sacrifices, including donations. "
      Reporter: " How did you manage to hunt so many goldens on Phoenix? Can you reveal us "the secret"? "
      No1LiveEr:"A very good question :)) I always enjoy hunting goldens, it is my greatest pleasure related to MU.
      The secret lies in: ON almost all invasions I have patience, sometimes I wait for the invasion for 30-40 minutes in the maps I hunt :)) I never miss invasions when I am online, no matter what event it is (except CS, ofc). "
      Reporter :"What characters have you played on OldSquad so far? 
      No1LiveEr:" "Magic Gladiator (strMG) and MaSsacr3 (SM). " 
      Reporter :"What characters do you think that are the best for PvP ? What about PVM?"
      No1LiveEr:"For me, there are only MG on PVP and on PVM, but I think every character is good in both PVP and PVM "
      Reporter :"So, do you think that all classes are balanced?
      No1LiveEr:" Not really, 70% I am satisfied with the settings and formulas of each character. But they can be even better." 
      Reporter :"What advice would you give to a player playing on this server for the first time, what should he do to get to the top places?"
      No1LiveEr:"First of all, a new player must look for a top guild in which to integrate and adapt quickly to the style of play. The second very important thing would be a permanent party with which to reach the top. The rest comes during the game. The third very important thing is the forum. There is all the information related to the server, related to game play, events etc. etc. "
      Reporter: "Did you have any permanent party on OldSquad ? Do you have one ready for this new data base? Can you tell us a short story about how did you meet those players and their names ofc.?" 
      No1LiveEr: "The first time I played I didn't have a permanent party, but I adapted to the style of play on the server... I have a permanent party for the new database. I would like not to reveal the players' names that I party with, now. We have been part of the same guild for some time and we get along very well." 
      Reporter:" What is the importance of a permanent party ?" 
      No1LiveEr: "It's the most important thing if you want to be in the top, once again it makes the difference between a good player and an average one, of course if you manage to find the right players to take part of it (it can be really tricky if you do not trust that players enough to share account and etc. but I would never join a permanent party without knowing very well the players inside it. " 
      Reporter: "There are rumors on the server that inside Rampage and Hardcore guilds there have been many quarrels between guild members, are they true? Why Rampage disbanded?"
      No1LiveEr:"I can't answer you because I don't know what happened, at that time I didn't use to play that much " 
      Reporter : "Since we reached the rumors section, there are some that say that Obraznic was a friend of yours and one of your permanent party members. What happened with him, why did he get banned?"
      No1LiveEr: "Yes, Obraznic is a friend of mine and he played with me. Why was he banned? As far as I know, he tried to sell for real money, what is against the rules on the server. "
      Reporter: " Your guild lost most of the battles on the past Inception data base, but took revenge on Phoenix, what happened? How did you guys manage to build such a strong guild?"
      No1LiveEr: "I think that on Inception we lost as a guild due to the fact that many players gave up one by one, including me. The difference was made on Phoenix for the simple fact that we managed to build a much more united guild than on the last Inception, and many of us had a lot of free time due to the pandemic. "
      Reporter: " Will Hardcore return, or maybe should I say continue, since you, guys, dominated Phoenix, in force, are you ready to dominate this database same as happened on Phoenix ?"
      No1LiveEr:" Hardcore will return without a doubt, but will we dominate this database as well? I can't know for sure what will happen, but what I can say is that we will not give up easily " 
      Reporter: " On last Inception data base, Snook and Alex were a part of your team, then on Phoenix they started with Hardcore, then they left the camp and went to Squadron, what happened?"
      No1LiveEr:":)) In few words ... I don't think they are worthy of Hardcore"
      Reporter: "mafy or RedBuLL .. will one of them be the guild master of Hardcore this data base? "
      No1LiveEr:"Unfortunately, none of them. "
      Reporter: "I think you already read all the features about this new Inception data base, what would you change to this new server? What do you expect from this new Inception data base?"
      No1LiveEr: "Hmm a very difficult question ... I mostly like the idea itself and what has been implemented. What I would change would be the reward at each stage, I consider that they are too small. Regarding what expectations I have from the database .... I hope there will be more than 2-3 guilds participating in CS "
      Reporter : " Do you read the News Paper ? "
      No1LiveEr:" Of course, yes"
      Reporter : " Do you believe in superstitions? Do you think that the Castle is Cursed? "
      No1LiveEr: "I'm not a superstitious guy. The castle is not cursed .... The castle will always belong to those who are very united and able to adapt and counteract as quickly as possible. "
      Reporter : " Did you see what happened to the guilds that held the castle, even yours (Rampage)? If it's not "The Curse", what could it be to create so much chaos inside a guild and destroy the most of them?"
      No1LiveEr:" I know very little about what happened in Rampage, but what I can say for sure is that not everyone can always be satisfied. And by chance itself we managed to create a new guild and at the same time to gather players who do not make waves and know very well their position in the guild and not only."
      Reporter :"What do you suggest to improve on NewsPaper ?"
      No1LiveEr:"I don't think any change is needed. You, as a Reporter, do your job very well and I am always eager to see what other articles you do "
      Reporter: "Since a mate of yours was banned, what do you think about this rule related to the sale of items / accounts for real money? "The buyer receives free of charge what the seller offers if he reports to Staff."
      No1LiveEr: "I completely agree even if I was left without a friend (in game), but at the same time it is a rule that can be interpreted differently by everyone. Although the rule is big and loud, I am very sure that there are enough players on the server that manage to break the rule and to take advantage of it .... The temptation is great and there are many buyers :P "
      Reporter: "I have 4 challenges for you, do you accept them?" 
      No1LiveEr:"Yes, I hope it doesn't take too long "
      Reporter :"Challenge no 1:  I need the names of the 5 players you respect the most on OldSquad and the names of the 5 you dislike the most on OldSquad, with reasons ofc."
      No1LiveEr:":)) I like:
            -Makiavelli because he is a close friend and a loyal player and at the same time a team player
            -RuSuLeTzZz because he is a very ambitious player and does not give up no matter what happens and a good coordinator
             -mafy because he is an insightful player and attentive to whatever happens
             - Sparkle because he is a very good player from the old generation and at the same time a good CS player
             -RedBuLL because he is by far one of the best players on the Old Squad
      :)) I dislike:
             -CaddyLLac, KAIDO, Gh0sT, gre4ka, LordCiprix because they are players I never want to play with "
      Reporter: " Challenge no 2: Tell me what do you like most about our staff team, and what you don't like about them!" 
      No1LiveEr:"Hmmm very hard ..... because I respect the dedication of the staff only, but there is always things that they can do better "
      Reporter: " Challenge no 3: Give us the names of the top 10 hardcore players that will join this new data base"
      No1LiveEr:"mafy, RuSuLeTzZz, RedBuLL, LeonidaS, mircy, pandemic, PoooC, Azir, HellDrakE, and, ofc, me :D. "
      Reporter:" Challenge no 4 : "Give us the name of the guild master of Hardcore?"
      No1LiveEr: "No1LiveEr "
      Reporter: "OMG, so, I just interviewed the guild master of HARDOCRE?"
      No1LiveEr: "Yes "
      Reporter: "WOW, this is what I call Breaking NEWS !! I wish you a lot of success in this new mission and may the curse you believe in, or not, stay away from your guild in this new database!"
       
      Reporter:" Thank you very much for time and patience, I wish you to enjoy this new data base and have tons of fun playing it !"
      No1LiveEr: "Thank you very much!"
      This was No1LiveEr's Interview, a top player, a really honest guy and I am happy to bring him inside the NewsPaper hall of fame!

      snake reacted to ADMIN in Announcing Inception - #4 Edition - Back to Origins   
      Hello, OldSquaders!
      Hope y'all had a nice & safe summer.
      We're ready to bring you a new great journey into our MU world!
      We've been working on the past weeks to finish the next edition of Inception, an edition that is bringing a lot of new & fun things as well as a lot of balance features and tweaks to keep the competition level high, as we all seek to.
      Inception's 4th edition will be officially launched on Friday, 25 SEPTEMBER, at 19:00 Server Time (GMT+3). MOBS will spawn at 20:00 Server Time (GMT+3)!
      Official Info Topic: https://oldsquad.ro/forum/topic/993-inception-official-information-many-details-about-server
      The Test Server will be released for public starting from next week.
      As we're always striving for, we expect this Inception edition to be the best to be seen yet in our community.
      Some of the new things that this Inception edition will feature:
      Council Group Council will be the "voice of the players" for this Inception's edition. We will interact directly & actively with members of the Council for a better game for everyone. Note: We'll try to have at least 1 representative for each *bigger* guild as a member of our Council, as well as people that had / will have contributions in terms of feedback/suggestions/bug reports/etc. New Stage System Now after a stage is completed it will no longer affect others (the exp of that reset goes back to the same exp of the previous reset). Now apart from the Stage breakers (first 3 people to finish a stage) that will keep their own reward, there will be rewards for everyone that progressed through stage based on the level they had when the stage was completed. Now the EXP boosts for newbies will be added after each stage completion (and will benefit everyone who is not in top 100 at that moment). Important: The players that finish a stage won't be able to continue leveling until the stage is officially over for everyone. A stage will be officially over after 12 hours since the 3rd player finished it. Exception: If the 3rd player does finish the stage between 15:00 and 22:00 server time then the stage will be officially over only at 10:00 next day (due to sleep interval). This is meant to assure the next stage will be more fair in terms of competition. So, by progressing through the stage you'll win both rewards and a better position to compete for the next one. Dynamic Characters Balance Now after each stage, we'll be adjusting the characters that either OVERPERFORM or UNDERPERFORM in either PvP or PvM at that stage of the game. The adjustments will be based on the Council's feedback. Duel Gamble System Fight your enemies and/or friends for bets in jewels/credits. Winner get em' all. More info about it you can find on Official Topic -> PvP System -> Duel Gamble System. Imperial Guardian V2 along with weekly rankings for speed-run records of parties Enjoy a harder Imperial event alongside personal rewards, extra optional rewards as well as weekly rankings for speed-running competitions in teams of 5 different classes. More info later. OldSquad Soccer System & Soccer Nights Had a bad week? No problem, @Gion will guarantee you have a fun experience on our Soccer Nights to make it up (hosted usually in weekend). No friends/guild needed. Everyone will be part of a random-made team based on the registration pool. Extra Warehouses ingame Starting from this edition, players will be able to access multiple warehouses on the same account. Basically, you will have your *MAIN* warehouse as usually, and you'll gain access to extra (empty by default) warehouses where you can deposit your things: Non-VIP characters do have 2 extra warehouses. Dealer & Hunter VIP characters will have 3 extra warehouses. Professional VIP characters do have 4 extra warehouses. In order to access such extra warehouses you need to type the command /ware (0/1/2/3/4) where the number = warehouse number. Example: /ware 0 (will switch to your main warehouse, which is always set by default and after each relog). Example2: /ware 1 (will switch to your 2nd warehouse). Note: Characters that had VIP and it expired will no longer be able to access the extra warehouse(s), but items will not be lost, they can be accessed back after you renew your VIP. Note2: The Game Warehouse from Website does use ONLY the *MAIN* warehouse. Improvements to the Mother-Kid concept to make it more feasible towards (re)populating Inception Lower wait-time for transfers, faster peace Wormhole, additional transfer options for those that started Wormhole later but managed to make enough resets. Separated sub-server for gens maps (Server 2) to improve performance Extra things: All the improvements, fixes & new features that were added since Phoenix's start up to now have been adjusted accordingly and added to Inception as well. Now you can get DDI% (from harmony) only from item level + 11 (instead of + 9). Note: Maximum DDI% per item is now 5% instead of 7% (1% at +11, 3% at +12, 5% at +13). Credits reward for submitting a Guide and have it accepted. Credits reward for submitting a Suggestion and have it accepted & implemented. IMP now increases damage / wiz damage with +12% instead of +20%. Demon now increases damage / wiz damage with +18% instead of +30%. Now there's maximum 4 GM boxes that can be obtained by each loser of CS. Now if the GM of team with lowest points at CS has quitted, the 2nd lowest points team will receive the periodic Life Stones. + many other things that you can find by reading all of our info as well as playing the test & the official game.
      We're here for an EPIC edition, hope you're too!
      #MakeMUGreatAgain!
    7. Thanks
      snake reacted to ADMIN in Submitting a Guide

      You can make a guide about almost anything related to our server(s). Starting from events, characters, gameplay, tips & tricks, etc.
      In order for your guide to be approved it must be manually accepted by one of our staff members, and to achieve that it must contain:
      Character name of the submitter (for the potential reward). Clear information that is respecting our settings. At least 2 photos. Minimum 200-250 words. Your own words (copy-paste is forbidden). Decent formatting. If the guide is accepted it will appear along the other already existing guides and players can use it for inspiration.
      Any accepted guide will grant you 100~300 credits depending on the subject, information and the work you've put in it.

      snake reacted to Reporter in [Interview] Snook   
      This interview is about Snook, a player who got ranked no 1 on Phoenix#2 weeks ago and he is still number one in the moment I write this article, he is ranked top number one also on Master Level Main rankings, Hall of Fame general rankings, Chaos Castle general rankings, and second ranked Castle Siege Tank rankings , and he is also a member of "The Council" (one of the newest Old Squad projects).
      Reporter: "Hello, Snook ! Welllcomeeeee to the News Paper's Hall of Fammeeeeeeeee !
      Snook:"Hello, Mr. Reporter ! Thank you for having me !  🙏 "
      Reporter : " Can you, please, give us a description of yourself? Name, age, occupation, hobbies, etc. ? "
      Snook:"My name is Florin. I am 25 years old, from Romania. I am self-employed , with 3 different income sources at the moment. My main hobbies would be sports ( with fitness and football being by far my favorite , but I also enjoy table tennis and basketball), movies , tv-shows, cars and reading and learning constantly new things "
      Reporter:" Three different income sources? Wow tell us a bit more about that."
      Snook:" Well, it's nothing special. They are all related to health. Two are strongly correlated, I am a personal trainer and a health and nutrition coach and I am also involved in my mother's business ( a medicinal leeches bio laboratory) which has been my main activity for the past months due to the covid19 situation."
      Reporter:" Regarding this covid 19 pandemic, how did it affect you?"
      Snook:" My major problem with covid19 was that they closed the gyms and they also blocked international transportation by air, which affected our sales. I also feel the need to say that this is far from a pandemic with this new virus   "
      Reporter: "How much time do you spend/day playing mu OldSquad (average)? "
      Snook:" It really depends. For the past two weeks, I've spent about 2-3 hours, maybe. Today under 1 hour, so far 😂 . At the start of the server, I was on maybe 10-14 hours since my activities were closed/at a minimum level. "
      Reporter : "When did you start to play Mu Online? "
      Snook:"I first started when I was 11-12 maybe with my older brother. It was a 97d server and we had no idea what we were doing After that we played on and off, mostly together. There was a break of 5-6 years maybe where we didn't play any server, suddenly realizing how many things appeared and how much the game has evolved. This is probably the longest DB that I've played continuously.  "
      Reporter : "How did you find OldSquad ?"
      Snook:" My brother found it on xtremetop100 when there was a 50rr edition. 2 years ago maybe. We loved it from the start, as we could see how much passion ADMIN put into making this server probably the best private one at this moment. I mean , not only ADMIN , the entire OS team."
      Reporter :"What nicknames did you have in the past?"" 
      Snook:" I think I had Florin the first time and then Snook. In the first servers I had Sn0ok3r , the nickname I was using on CS 1.6"
      Reporter: "Do you have any VIP activated? What types of VIP did you use since the start of Phoenix and why?"
      Snook:"I have PRO vip for the past 4-6 weeks, I think. I've started with HUNTER, had VIP activated all the time. Started with HUNTER because it was better than DEALER for leveling up. "
      Reporter: " How did you manage to climb in top and eventually get the most desired place ? Can you reveal us "the secret"?  "
      Snook:"If you wanna play for the top you MUST have a permanent party and try to have someone to cover the party all the time (being able to refill at nights and lvling up at top spots makes all the difference). We've tested on test-server the best spots for every level and we managed to get a nice lead versus the others. I've managed to get 1st now just because Rusuletz and Makiavelli stopped playing ( so seriously ). They've had pro vip since the release and therefore they had a big advantage at leveling. "
      Reporter:" But still, you were chasing the no 1 rank since server started and it came a bit late, what made the difference between you and the "stage breakers" back then?"
      Snook:" There were a couple of reasons. First one, the release of Grizzly spots in Elbeland right before the start of the server (which are better than ice queen in dev4). We didn't pay attention to that reply on the forum and didn't know about this. Secondly, the warp bug for dungeon 3 ( where you could walk to dungeon 3 at 53 or sth instead of 70). After that, the party kill rate made another difference (they had 2 dl's in party with OP dmg while SM was hitting 3-400 in karutan1). Another big difference was made by our party member Alex, which told mafy to move to our maps every time we were making xp better than them   "
      Reporter :" What about HoF rankings, how did you got so many trophies? "
      Snook:" CC is playing a huge role in that. I've been getting first there for the past 5-6 weeks I think. Of course, PRO vip plays an important part in this, since you have an extra entry/day."
      Reporter :"Since you are top no one Soul Master player on the server, can you reveal us a few tips about Soul Master pvp build/ ML skill tree? Can you reveal your stats ?"
      Snook:"Well, I don't want to reveal them , since this makes quite a difference. I've tested several builds with each RR and now I think I've found the best one so far. It also depends on play-style/set. As with ML , on SM it's pretty basic , nothing special. "
      Reporter :"What advice would you give to a player playing on this server for the first time, what should he do to get to the top places? How should he build stats on Soul Master  ?"
      Snook:"Sneaky question . He should try to get into all bc/ds / day. They matter a lot actually. In my opinion, at the start he could try and have higher vitality/agility to survive in better maps. After he gets a decent gear, he can decrease those and add to energy. SM is very gear dependent, without a nice staff and wings, his dmg is very poor.  And, of course, try and get a permanent party with shared teamviewer/anydesk."
      Reporter :"What characters do you think are the best for PvP  ? 
      Snook:"It depends on the stage of the game. At this moment, close to end game , I believe SM/SUM to be the best. BK is probably the best PVP as long as he one shots sm/sum with combo , if he doesn't then he'd die from the DPS. "
      Reporter: "Speaking of permanent party... Can you tell us a few words about the importance of a perma party on OldSquad, and a short story about how you and your perma mates got together?" 
      Snook:"Permanent party , with shared TV/anydesk is the most important aspect on the server. Being able to refill the chars when the user is AFK or bring back from safe-zone if he dies will make all the difference in experience. Without one you might die in the first 2 minutes after you go AFK and realize that you've wasted 5-6 hours. Every minute is important for experience, especially at the start. Often you notice multiple differences in levels in a party between members that go to events (ex. invasions) and the ones that just afk on spot.
      We've actually replaced our perma a lot this DB. Started with Venom (who is a real-life good friend of mine) and Alex (we met on forum for Inception last db and we became friends, what were the odds that we were living so close to each other?  ). Searching for 2 more players for our perma we found Mindpower and Rain, but their objective with the game was different than ours, they wanted a more chill approach so after a few weeks we changed members and kept changing since 1 member after another stopped playing. Right now the party consists of me , Venom , Waste and Duke. "
      Reporter: " Why Squadron disbanded? "
      Snook:"Most of the players stopped playing after the first 2-4 weeks , so there was no point in keeping the guild anymore. At a moment only Zutto, Waste and Chukundah were still playing, while all the others were afk , busy with work or other stuff.  "
      Reporter : "What happened with BedeJutro's items during the most controversial Castle Siege on Phoenix#2 ?"
      Snook:" Well, obviously, someone with access on the account logged on him and took his items during CS time. It was pretty nice for him to give them back though."
      Reporter:" So, it wasn't you?" 
      Snook:" Pretty hard to be me when I was facing 20-25 players trying to kill me on stamp during that time. I know I'm tough, but I still have to press Q Also, I never had the details to that account as I had no business with that party members." 
      Reporter:" Last week Hardcore created 3 guilds to kick Sapphire from Castle Siege and then they farmed points to get free Lord Boxes, how do you comment their action? "
      Snook:"I don't really care. For me the competition on the server is dead for several weeks now. Maybe now that random guild may realize how inexperienced they really are. "
      Reporter: " Do you think that your guild can win the Castle Siege? "
      Snook:"In a close number of members fight , yeah. If there is a guild with double the number of players , probably not. Anyway , we are pretty busy and had no time for CS. " 
      Reporter:" At the beginning of this data base you were a Hardcore member, what happened? Why did you left the guild and then moved to the "enemy guild" ?"
      Snook:" Most of the players did not want me there , they made it pretty clear , so there was no point for me to stay. I also did not want to play with them, but I entered because of Alex and Rus."
      Reporter:"Since you are a council member, can you give us some details about what this council means, why you applied, how you were elected and what your expectations are from this council? "
      Snook:"It's everything at the start, so I know as much as it was presented to everyone. I was invited by Gion to take part in this project , which I'm honored and happy to. I hope that together we can make OS projects more fun, balanced and enjoyable for all types of players , from serious to casual. "
      Reporter : " Do you read the News Paper ? "
      Snook:"ALWAYS!!   "
      Reporter : " Do you believe in superstitions? Do you think that the Castle is Cursed? "
      Snook:"Somehow , maybe. I think it brings a lot of greed at surface, but it all depends on the people that make the guild. We never had issues in Squadron with this because everyone has equal chances for the items "
      Reporter : " Did you see what happened to the guilds that held the castle? If it is not the "curse" (which can be defined by greed, selfishness and pride), what could it be to destroy the most of the guilds in that way?"
      Snook:" In my most sincere opinion , the core members of the guild. If they see themselves above the rest of the players , as the only party/players that matter , then of course the others will not accept this."
      Reporter :"What do you suggest to improve on NewsPaper ?"
      Snook:"Well, I truly enjoy it, but maybe sometimes it can be made more fact-based, rather than dramatize. But maybe it's just my preference."
      Reporter: "On a scale from 1 to 10, how much do you like Phoenix#2 ?"
      Snook:"I'd go with a 7."
      Reporter: " What would you change to this server? What do you expect from the following servers?"
      Snook:"I would want to see a slower pace for the server and fewer bugs/ more balance for top events. Compared to my experience on Inception, it feels that ADMIN didn't have that much time for this edition, which is understandable, many things may appear in someone's daily life. "
      Reporter: "There are rumors that the last base date you were banned,are they true? What happened? 
      Snook:"Yes , although I'm not sure why it's a rumor , since it was never a secret. I tried to sell my account. Wanted to quit forever, heard from someone that he did , so I figured why not make some money if I invested so much time in the end. Wasn't aware at that time of the rule. "
      Reporter: "What do you think about this rule related to the sale of items / accounts for real money? The buyer receives free of charge what the seller offers if he reports to Admin."" ?
      Snook:"I believe many ABUSE this rule, forcing this kind of trades. I presented my opinion to ADMIN at that time also. People should be encourage to report this for the community , and just get them banned, but not get the items or especially the account. Maybe a small reward like toca,ob,creds."
      Reporter: "There are some rumors on the server that say VIP affects the concept of "play-to-win gameplay", what do you think of these rumors? Is a player who is active able reach the top without donating? " 
      Snook:" Definitely , maybe they'd have to donate the first 2 weeks , or at least the first one. You can make a lot of credits by selling items/jwls. I made around 25-30K this edition so far I think.  The game would be harder and more enjoyable without blacksmith upgrades (+12/ add luck) and therefore the credit trades will be lower , jwls will be more important and less scams, but this server is not for free , so I understand it perfectly that it needs to generate revenue for it to self sustain.Although probably PRO vip is a little OP"
      Reporter:"I have 4 challenges for you, do you accept them? Now it's a fixed number 😂" 
      Snook:" Bring it on  "
      Reporter :"Challenge no 1:  I need the names of the 3 players you respect the most from Sapphire, the names of the 3 players you hate from this guild, the names of the 3 players you respect the most on OldSquad and the names of the 3 you dislike the most on OldSquad"
      Snook:" I respect no one from Sapphire , I've barely saw a couple of them on server, I don't hate anyone either. Hating someone over a game seems really problematic for me. I'm really indifferent with all of them.
      The 3 players I respect the most on OS, that's hard. I'd have to go with Voyager (very nice guy with great leadership skills), Exilia ( always minded his business and never trash talked, also had the pleasure to play in party with him for a couple of weeks and had some really, really interesting talks with him) and Diablo ( he truly understands the concept of fair play and game competition).
      Reporter: " Challenge no 2: Tell me 3 things you like most about our staff team, and 3 things you don't like about them!" 
      Snook:" Well , let's see. I like how they try and come up with different events ideas , such as soccer , or OSGM.
      I like how seriously they take into consideration racism speech ( I believe this to be one of the problems that shouldn't exist in our time)
      I also like how they leave a freedom to free speach and room for fights on the server , adds some spice to the game sometimes
      I think they should take into consideration better actions against repetitive toxic players. I don't like how uncarelessly Admin sometimes responds to forum posts.."
      Reporter:" Challenge no 3: Tell us 3 things you would improve on our server and top 3 things you like the most" 
      Snook :" Things I would improve: 1. Better balance for top events, especially IT. 2. Slower pace of game-play 3. Lower rewards from stages. "
      "Three things I like the most: 1. Stages 2. CS game-play 3.The server configuration and how the information is presented"
      Reporter: " Challenge no 4 : Tell us the council members names and  your opinion about each one"
      Snook:" Council members at this moment are: ADMIN, Alex, Archie, Cerberus, Legion, mafy, Nephilim, snake, snook, Waste, Zutto.
      Admin- don't know him that well , seems like a decent guy that puts passion into this server
      Alex - friend of mine , biggest noob , hard to carry him for the second time, lucky for me I'm quite strong  ( lots of love Alex) ; he sometimes comes up with awesome ideas for this server (ex: pvpquest)
      Archie - I don't know him at all
      Cerberus - played with him a little on Inception , seemed like a serious guy
      Legion - haven't seen him once so far
      mafy - he cares only about his own interest
      Nephilim - pretty decent , funny guy
      snake - I don't know him
      Snook - hopefully you'll make an idea from this interview
      Waste - pretty smart and funny guy , it's a pleasure to play with him
      Zutto - he seems to mind his own business"
      Reporter:" Do you strongly believe that this group of players will bring servers that will be appreciated by all players who will join?" 
      Snook :" I truly believe each and everyone has their strengths and weakness and together I think we will complete each other and we will manage to improve the server's quality, even if it's only with a little."
      Reporter:" Thank you very much for time and patience, I wish you GL on all plans!"
      Snook:" Thank you very much also , it was a pleasure  " 
      This was Snook's Interview, a top player, council member and "behind the keyboard" seems to be a honest guy who enjoys to be a part of our community !

      snake reacted to Reporter in Council, a New Project for OS Community   
      The Council, a project in which experienced or not so experienced players can help the administrative team take the best decisions in the game, where they can ask for explanations and understand the direction our community is heading.
      Over time I have seen all sorts of players with or without experience who complain about various things, they usually expect that if you enter the forum and open a simple topic, everything is solved, without thinking about the consequences. For example: an Elf player would like to have the top pvp Elf, top PVM, top everything, of course, it's easy to go in and ask but the impact of an upgrade of a class in the game can ruin the whole balance of the server.
      This new project is about us, about the players, about our community, a project that will help us to evolve progressively, I had a little talk with Gion, and I asked him to give us some more details about this project, so you can understand better what it is about. I've selected the most on-point discussions:
      Reporter:" Hello, Gion ! " 
      Gion: " Hello, my dear friend ! "
      Reporter: "Can you tell us where the idea for the council came from? Who thought of this project and what is its purpose? " 
      Gion: " Sure ! ADMIN had this idea, we wanted to implement it since the beginning of Inception, but we had a lot to work on the server side, so we delayed it until now. " 
      Reporter:" What are your expectations from future Council members?
      Gion: " Since we delayed the project until now, it is understood by default that we want some quality, meaning that we cannot let 90% of the players' opinions in the hands of the .. let's say people who are not ready.
      Reporter:" The opinions of these council members will have a decisive impact on the game ?" 
      Gion : " Of course. It is well known that this game is better in teams, no matter if a team has 2-5-25 members. Assuming that a team is usually sharing the way of thinking, because that's why they're a team, right ? So, assuming that the team has the same mentality, our aim is to have a representative in as many teams as possible, from the newcomers' parties up to the highest guilds. Just like a sampler does. Our aim is the Democracy. We want everyone to matter, and taking this into account, that's why I said that the Council is 90% of the players' opinion, any player can still open polls / suggestions / etc. by himself"
      Reporter: "After a player joins this Council, will he be able to continue to talk freely on the forum or in game?" 
      Gion :" Yessir ! Anyone can speak freely "
      Reporter:" Will these players, once they enter this Council have any advantage in the game?" 
      Gion: " There are no immediate physical rewards, as there are no responsabilities, but I am sure that the overall quality of the personal gameplay, as well as the public gameplay will be highly increased soon " 
      Reporter:" Those who register, in order to be elected, must know how to speak English very well? " 
      Gion: " It is recommended to know English in order to be able to let us, the others, know what's on your mind."
      Reporter:" In the announcement made regarding the recruitments of council members you mentioned that those members should be "Players that had contributed during these years", can you be a little more explicit?"
      Gion: " You don't have to meet all the requirements in order to be "elected" as a Council member. As you can see, the newcomers will be a part of it too. That's the "academic" answer, the true reason was already mentioned by me above, and it is that we want quality, even the newcomers have to show that they are ready and that they are really willing to do this. Obviously, the ones that "have already contributed during these years" are well-known by us. And we appreciate it. Looking forward to see more people doing it ! Cheers !" 
      Reporter:" But when you say "contributed" you do not mean that he need to be a donor or something, right? "
      Gion: " 🤦‍♂️No, sir. It has nothing to do with the donations. We are talking about the ones who contributed with suggestions, ideas, also understanding when a suggestion/idea cannot be implemented not because it is wrong, but because we promote what the majority wants, just like it is in Democracy. "
      Reporter:"The announcement for the recruitment of these council members was made around 5-6 days ago, what is the status of the number of players registered for the selection? " 
      Gion: " There are some players who expressed their will to do this and we are very glad. Thank you !"
      Reporter: "Who will select these members and when will this selection take place?" 
      Gion: " The selection is made by ADMIN and me, as I said, based on the previous experiences (personal or public), no matter how small these experiences were. As you can see, we have already stared to add Members. "
      Thank you very much, Gion ! I am convinced that this new project will have 100% success rate !
      Old Squad Council, a new futuristic project that is made for our community benefits! You have nothing to lose guys, to apply for a council member position  just send a message with your CV via Facebook messenger !

      snake reacted to Gion in OldSquad Council   
      Hello, OldSquaders !
      We are glad to introduce you to a brand new group on forum, the Council group ! This group is created in order for the players to communicate with the staff easier. Our aim is to make the Council to represent the players, facilitating the feedback, the suggestions, the bug reports, basically everything. Having lots of online players can create confusion between the staff and the players, due to the repetitive reports, or repetitive requests for some changes (which are not that healthy for the community as a whole, but are still requested by some of the players that didn't know that the case was already presented and/or discussed). In this way we will try to sync the big decisions according to our players.
       
      Some "requirements" / details:
       
      Council group
      - Special forum group & discord place where chosen players can communicate easier with the staff and represent the players from the community.
      - Legends does have priority but not a guaranteed spot.
      - Only accepting people that we enjoyed speaking with or we like their character.
      - We need at least 1 person from each big guild from server.
      - 1-2 newbies (playing 1st time on our community).
      - Players that had contribution during these years.
      - Maximum of 12-15 players, for now.
      - No rewards but also no responsibilities, only participating when they what on discussions or bringing an opinion to others suggestions/reports/etc.
      - People totally inactive from the group will be removed & replaced.
      - People who want to join the council must send us details via Messenger to our Facebook page, OldSquad Community, and we'll select from them as well as inviting ourselves the good guys, if they don't 'apply.
       
      We hope that you will enjoy this !
      Best regards,
      OldSquad Team

      snake reacted to Reporter in [Interview] Crucify   
      Crucify is a player who seems to have appeared "out of nowhere" and in a relatively short time he managed to amaze us all, creating a Rage Fighter that is by far the best at Castle Siege Pvp, also he currently is ranked as 1st in the overall voter rankings, he has voted 246 times so far, and ranks 1st in the Gens rankings, in the past 7 days he has managed to make 180 raid kills and to accumulate 7257 points.
      Reporter : "Hello, Crucify ! Welcome to The News Paper Hall of Fame! " 
      Crucify :" Hi    "  
      Reporter: " Can you, please, give us a description of yourself? Name, age, occupation, etc. " 
      Crucify :"My name is Turgut, I'm from Istanbul, Turkey. 21 y/o and computer engineering student(6th term). I like traveling, still traveling cities in Turkey but I want travel between countries soon (I'll go Oulu university, Finland for study next year if we can get over this covid shit :P), also I like swimming. "  
      Reporter: " Oooh, 21 y/o that makes you the youngest player from News Paper Hall of Fame! When did you start playing Mu Online? What nicknames you had in past? " 
      Crucify :"Hahaha, yea :)). I started before, 7 or 8 years ago on a season 2 server with my cousin and played season 2 for long time (he's 28 y/o and he was playing over 10 years, unfortunately he is not playing on OldSquad because he don't have much free time), it's my 3rd or 4th higher season server than season 2. I used Lykia, Tr0uble, Hargreave, Prophet but last 4-5 years I use Crucify on every game. "    
      Reporter: "How did you find OldSquad? Can you tell us a short story about your first steps on our server? Have you came alone? What was your first permanent party, what was your first guild, etc ? "
      Crucify :"I found Oldsquad on Xtremetop100. I checked first 10-15 servers(specially depends to webshops/services) and I saw that it's the only Play2win server. I started with my cousin and his friends on this year's Inception after 150-160 days server starts(we give a break like 1y and just wanted to play mu without for rank) then we see new server Phoenix coming. My first guild was Vikings at Inception. But even we were not in same guild, AlmightySM and Odyssey helped me and my friends too much. On Inception I was at stable party with my friends. But on phoenix they didn't play at beginning because they had no time so i was alone. My first permanent party is with Peps-Reborn-Deave-Arya but it didn't last long. Then we make stable party with Azir-Arseling-StrongOne-Skippy and now I'm in stable party with Azir-livy0u-Sosu-5GSP0RT and playing with Azir all the time(on events,bosses etc) "  
      Reporter: "What do you think about this server and community?" 
      Crucify :"Inception was good but I think admin is too busy to deal with Phoenix (pvp invasions fixed after 50days, disconnect problem took long too and there are always another bug). But I like this server, characters are balanced(hope admin solve ctrl bug soon) and if you are active you don't need to donate for credits. About community, mostly good, but there some toxic players "  
      Reporter :" Did you started to play on Phoenix since day 1?"
      Crucify: "Yes" 
      Reporter: "Do you have any VIP activated?"
      Crucify :"Not for now, I started without vip and make 150lvl sm for create rf, I usually buy vip when I got more than 3-4k credits before reset. Otherwise, I keep them for some upgrade. I buy hunter if I'm going to afk for couple days and pro for weeks that I play active(if i had credits :)) "  
      Reporter: " How much time do you spend /day playing Mu Online? "
      Crucify :"It was like 4-5 hours, but in this covid situation and my father has some issues with his lungs I'm at home 7/24 for 40-50 days(also my university start to online lessons) so i spend like 8-10 hours for mu and watching some tv series when I'm not playing mu "  
      Reporter :" Oh, sorry to hear that about your father, I hope he gets well!" 
      Crucify :" Thanks , he needs to stop smoking for 'go better', but he doesn't" 
      Reporter :"What advice would you give to a player who recently joined the server? What should he do to get to the top places or to get inside a top guild?"
      Crucify :"First of all they have to play active for all events specially BC/DS, for faster growth. When they are active for events they can join most of guilds and it becomes easier to hunt and they can find stable party in guild. "  
      Reporter: "You said earlier that you joined Old Squad for its real play2win concept, whats your opinion now? There are many players, especially the new ones, but not only those, who say that they have no chance to reach the top because they do not donate, how do you comment on these statements?"
      Crucify :"Not 100% play2win, but it's much more better than other servers, someone can still donate a lot of money and get set easily but they always stay noob, even if they have full set, there are so many players like that in server, also so many top player without donate even single cent :)). All they have to do is play active."  
      Reporter: "Isn't that all the play2win concept definition?"
      Crucify : "When you say play2win people think that there are no credits/vip/premium services, that's why I said not 100%, but pretty close"
      Reporter : " You are 1 reset behind Alex, the RF ranked no 1 in general main rankings, what happened? How come you're so far away?"
      Crucify :"As I said, before covid I was playing like 4-5 hours per day sometimes less and didn't join events so much, and I was really behind when I start to play-hard, that's why I didn't participate at the first 2 CS."  
      Reporter:" What classes have you played in the past? Is Rage Fighter your favorite class?" 
      Crucify :"I play Dark Lord usually on season 2, I tried Rage Fighter on my first season 6 server and i liked it. After that i always play Rage Fighter when it's available on server, and yes, looks like my new favorite class  "  
      Reporter: "You are currently the No. 1 Rage Fighter in the following major Old Squad ranks: Castle Siege pvp rankings, general vote rankings, and gens pvp rankings, how did you accomplish this?
      Crucify :"For Castle Siege, I tried so many combinations for str/vit ratio on test server, I think it's the most important reason because I was wearing plate set luck dd (which is not really good compared to my opponents) on third cs and I was the best RF, again. For gens rank I wait raid most of time and thanks to my friend Azir for calling me on raid if I sleep or afk for some reason. For vote just put an alarm "  
      Reporter:" Can you reveal us a few tips about Rage Fighters pvp build? Can you reveal your stats and/or ML skill tree? 
      Crucify :"If I give my stats away, every rage fighter will use them, so only advice that i can give is to find best str/vit ratio with your weapon ^^ "
      Reporter :" Speaking of permanent party, do you have one ? Can you tell us a few words about each member and a short story about how you guys met and got in a perma?" 
      Crucify :"Like I said before, I was in a permanent party with Peps-Arya-Reborn-Deave, but Peps left us because we were not active as he wants, then we all split. After that, I saw that Azir was looking for a member for his party so I joined them. After few players left/joined, it became a really good party. Azir is a really funny guy and really active on events, like me, he is the reason for my fast growth :). Livy0u is a really nice guy and he really likes to help ppl. Sosu and 5GSP0RT is in our party for just 1 week, so I don't know them very good but they both seem nice too. "  
      Reporter: "How important is, in your opinion, a permanent party on OldSquad?" 
      Crucify :"If you want to be in top, you have to be in permanent party with shared anydesk/teamviewer information for remote control(or give phone number, like I did at first times:)) " 
      Reporter: "Tell us about Hardcore, how were you and your party recruited in this guild?"
      Crucify :"Actually, I found my party in Hardcore. I started Inception after 150-160 days and I remember Maki, mafy and few more player from Old-style(I wasn't in guild, I just saw them on top). On Phoenix I saw them again and I wanted to join because they were strong on Inception   "  
      Reporter:" There are rumors that the Hardcore leaders and members are greedy, this being the main reason why many players left this guild, how do you comment these rumors ? "
      Crucify :"Not the leaders, just members that left/were kicked from guild were greedy (not all, but most of them). If the leaders were greedy, they wouldn't make Senior set for player that they didn't play together before :)). We share everything in guild. If more than 1 people ask for the same item, it doesn't matter if they are in their party or not, they give that item to more active one "  
      Reporter:" Hardcore, 2 weeks ago, lost the fight for supremacy with a big difference of points in favor of Squadron, what happened? "
      Crucify :"So many ppl from our main guild were busy for that day, and we took some players that don't have set from alt guild Alliance. But still 3 players didn't come and 2 players were afk at CS, so we play with 20. "  
      Reporter: " Wiggle and Squadron, the guilds you've been fighting with for so long have been disbanded, do you think the players of these two guilds will unite against yours?"
      Crucify :" I'm sure that they will, otherwise game will become really boring :))"  
      Reporter: " What do you think that are the reasons why these two guilds were disbanded? "
      Crucify :"For Squadron, I'm sure that most toxic player, Chukundah (or his another personality Tokyo that he uses now), is the one of reasons. For Wiggle, they call us greedy but I think they are the greedy ones, because 380 weapon for guild master is not the best option atm, it could be better if they gave boxes to one of rage fighters or blade knights. "  
      Reporter:" So, do you think that The Curse hit them so bad that they disbanded? Wiggle and Squadron are the latest victims of this cruel Curse ?
      Crucify :" What is The Curse ? Defeat on CS maybe?  I mean I know what curse means but The Curse looks like something special "
      Reporter :" The curse is defined by the greed and inside scandals that comes with the fight for supremacy, also spoil share between guild members, those are the main reasons that usually most of the guilds that held Castle disbanded, for more details please start reading this: https://oldsquad.ro/forum/topic/3453-phoenix-curse-history-of-castle-lords-and-guilds/ "
      Crucify : "Yea, looks like this Curse hit them "
      Reporter :"During last Sunday, your guild easily won the fight for supremacy, what did you do differently? "
      Crucify: "Participation was better for that CS, we played as 25. Also some ppl from EliteS came to our guild before couple days and some of them participate CS, they did a great job too.
      Reporter:" How do you comment on rumors that your guild is copying Squadron in developing strategies on each battle? "
      Crucify :"They always have excuses :)) "  
      Reporter:" It is rumored on the server that you are the main weapon of the guild, that without you Hardcore would not have managed to win some of previous battles because you found Trippy's "Achilles' heel", managing to kill him most of the time. How do you comment on these rumors?"
      Crucify:" They won before I participate CS, so I doubt about it. In my opinion Rusu is the most important person on cs because he directing everyone on voice. Sorry about stun on last cs, bro :))"
      Reporter : "Related to Lord Mix, from what I've seen, you're the only Hardcore Rage Fighter with a Lord Mix set, but you aren't  the biggest in the guild. How were you chosen for the first set? Did the other Rage Fighters players from the guild agree to let you have this first set?
      Crucify: " Yes, they voted about it, the reason that I got the first set is because I was the most active rage fighter in guild and I am the best rage fighter in server even with plate set, you can see on third CS ^^" 
      Reporter:" Who is taking the decisions in Hardcore? " 
      Crucify: "Council. 1 people from every permanent party(some parties 2-3, if they are active most of time) in council so we take decisions together "
      Reporter:" Hmmm, it sounds like the newest project of Admin, so, do you already have a council where guild decisions are made? Can you name the members of this Hardcore Council?" 
      Crucify: " Redbull, Shady, Maki, No1, Rusu, Mafy, Azir, Darkyo, Fane, Moonlight, Takeshi "
      Reporter:" Lately, more and more players are complaining that they have been scammed in the game, trying to buy items at prices that the market does not allow, thus being tricked. They are outraged on the forum and ask the admins to take action, what is your opinion about these events?"
      Crucify: " Admin is right about it, in my opinion, because this is a limit for prevent pay2win and make jewels more valuable. But still scamming is for dishonorable guys, like Chukundah. Rusu shouldn't trust him at first but I think he thinks that chuku has honor :)). Hope no one trusts him anymore."
      Reporter : "Do you have any enemies in the game?" 
      Crucify :"No, I'm really new on OldSquad Community. I just don't like few toxic players but they are not strong enough to be 'my enemy'. "  
      Reporter:" Can you tell us about the funniest moments you've experienced on OldSquad?" 
      Crucify :"We played Inception with my friend, WhoAmI, and AlmightySM helped us so much, as I said before. When we started on Phoenix, we thought that we can join Attack guild with AlmightySM. Anyway on first day of server, WhoAmI, me and 3 other friends (that are not playing anymore) were leveling in Devias 4 and another party came and tried to KS us. WhoAmI really got pissed off and started to argue with them, then they ask us which guild we will join and WhoAmI says we will join Attack and 'kick your asses'. The funny part is he argued with Speedy(Wanheda) and his party. Only after we realized that he is one of the founders of ATTACK :)) "  
      Reporter:" The number of online players started to decrease lately on Phoenix, what do you think that are the main reasons?" 
      Crucify :"I think main reason is that Admin is not active and there are always another bug, i just got 3 warn from IT today morningm but I didn't participate. I was going to BC and I was warned. Also server is not easy, so new players get bored and leave. "  
      Reporter:" Do you accept a few challenges?" 
      Crucify :"If I understand right, you ask about players on challenges and I don't know players, I just know players in Hardcore. Am i right? "  
      Reporter:" Well, first of all you need to accept the challenges. Who knows? It might get tricky. There will be several questions and one request, and I need details on each answer of yours."
      Crucify :" Nvm, I am in :))))) " 
      Reporter :" Challenge no 1: Tell us the names of the 3 players you respect the most on OldSquad and the names of the 3 most toxic persons on Old Squad."
      Crucify :"I respect most Azir, mafy and Rusu and 3 most toxic players are Chuku, TrueSquad and gimiurhelm "  
      Reporter: "Challenge no 2: Tell me 3 things you like most about the staff team of this server, and 3 things you don't like about them!"
      Crucify :"Admin is not active, i don't like it like everyone. Gion being too soft about bad langauge, he should give more warn/ban for swearing at family values. And Reporter looks like Squadron fan instead of neutral (no offence but everyone who can read newspaper about cs can understand that :)) "  
      Reporter:" Challenge no 3: Give us the name of the 3 best pvp players on OldSquad !" 
      Crucify :"Rusu, Zutto(only if he's not using macro, I don't understand about macros) and me, ofc ^^ "  
      Reporter:" Challenge no 4 : What do you like most and what you dislike on Old Squad game play"
      Crucify :"Events are so important, you cant do any shit with 7/24 afk. Dynamic exp is amazing for encourage new players. Alliances can't participate on CS, so it's good, you have to make strategy instead of bringing so many ppl in the Siege. I don't like website blacksmith, especially add luck to items. There are always bugs, as I've said before. And Non-pvp events are annoying :)) "  
      Reporter:"Challenge no 5(the in game request) :Give us a print screen with you ML skill tree build!" 
      Crucify :" "  
      Reporter:" Did you register for the Soccer Event tonight?"
      Crucify:" Yes, I was registered, but I wasn't lucky enough to be chosen" 
      Reporter:" So, would you like Gion to increase the limit of participants?" 
      Crucify :" Yes, it would be better i think. More players = more competition "
      Reporter:" Do you read the News Paper?" 
      Crucify :" I did it only for this DB"  
      Reporter:" What would you improve on NewsPaper ?
      Crucify :"Hmm, maybe you can start new series like daily things for every week, only top guild players read The War for Supremacy series. For example someone get banned today for selling item for real money. "  
      Reporter:" Well, now I will argue about the lack of time, imagine that I am a player too and I spend 60% of my free time doing reporter job, so i am focusing on what I think that really adds '+' value for The News Paper " 
      Crucify :"Yes, but I think that players can report to you for that daily things, with screenshots maybe, but yes, it requires so much time, it was just idea :)) "  
      Reporter:" Since you already told us what should be improved, what do you say about all the unique and futuristic things added by Admin to a season 6 server (merecenary squad, all the / invasion, / entries, / info etc.)? Do you know that no one says anything about the cool things and only the bad ones are in the forums spotlights ?
      Crucify :" Except non pvp invasions, they are all useful, but I hate non-pvp invasions. "
      Reporter:" But not when you where a newbie and you will not stand a chance to hunt a gold
      when someone stronger comes and you already 60% killed it " 
      Crucify :" Good point ! "
      Reporter: "Thank you very much for your time, patience and for the pure honest answers ! Now it is the time to let you send a message to the staff and to the friends/enemies !" 
      Crucify :"Thanks to you too, I really appreciate it :)). To staff, pls feedback more on bugs. To my friends, let's destroy OneStepy too. And to my enemies, I don't have enemies :)) "   
      This was Crucify's interview, a young player on our community, a player who has created the strongest Rage Fighter so far, and also a really nice guy, the interview lasted much more then I expected because he is a really nice guy and we also chit chat about a lot of things! Thank you again, Crucify! Wish you all the best, and I hope your father will stop smoking and he will get better!!

      snake reacted to salam in Why people quit game before getting full gear&stats?   
      I'm one of the ones that quit before the server ended, and i keep in contact with other people that did so too (NONE guild).
      I suppose it isn't worth investigating too much into this, because tbh there's plenty of reasons:
      - it's summer, people want to chill on the beach, not grind Devil Square
      - most mu players are 25/30 +, we need a break from time to time to deal with real life shit
      - the old mu server model where people played the same DB for 2-3 years is simply not viable anymore, mostly because of the previous reason. i think OS does a very good job about this, bringing something fresh every 4-6 months.
       
      To all the haters, don't take it the wrong way. NONE will most likely be back, but now it's summer, time to chill
    13. Thanks
      snake got a reaction from Gion in Cape of Lord & Small Cape of Lord   
      Probably because normal cape you can make it ++++ and the small cape can not be ++++

      snake reacted to Reporter in [Interview] Catarina   
      Hello,
       This is the first interview from many that I will try to make. At this moment, Catarina is a VIP OldSquad player because he is ranked number 1 on 3 of our rankings, Castle Siege, PVM and Gens. We all want to hear how he did that, what he thinks and MORE! So, you can read his answers in this topic, and I really want to thank him for the time and answers (I am fan of any ranked number 1 player, so I will try to interview all of them, because they got ranked number 1 doing things better than the others, so they deserve to be called an OldSquad VIP):
       
      Reporter: "At this moment you are the first ranked on Castle Siege, PVM Rankings and Gens. Congratulations!"
      Catarina: "Yes, thx."
      Reporter: "Can you tell us how did you accomplished that?"
      Catarina: "At the CS I am trying to fight the ppl with no gear or little HP, like Summoners, elfs, for easy kills."
      Reporter: "PVM Rankings?" 
      Catarina: "If I be in home and play active, then all time I am trying to kill bosses and golds"
      Reporter: "And Gens?"
      Catarina: "Most ppl stay on spot and don't leave, they lost party on spot, gens... when we have pvp invasion then you must kill different gens"
      Reporter: "How much time do you spend/day playing mu OldSquad(average)?"
      Catarina: "Active, maybe 4-5h"
      Reporter: "When you started to play MU Online?"
      Catarina: "Hmm long time ago, version 97 I start"
      Reporter: "Don`t name servers, not relevant, years will be fine."
      Catarina: "2010"
      Reporter:"How did you find us?"
      Catarina: "On XtremeTop100 server list"
      Reporter: "When you started to play OldSquadMU?"
      Catarina: "189 day ago"
      Reporter: "What nicknames you had in the past?"
      Catarina: "Mefisto"
      Reporter: "How are your stats build and how do you think is better for pvp?"
      Catarina: "Summ need only 2 items ancient to make DD (double damage), str for use stick, some points add to agi/vit for speed and dsr, rest ene, I think it would be good options for  pvp 1vs1. If you want to be good on team fight, you go vit and agi, and u be debuffer and u have reflect"
      Reporter: "And for pvm?"
      Catarina: "for pvm the most important is energy, our multiplier"
      Reporter: "Do you have any enemies in game?"
      Catarina: "no"
      Reporter: "Did you had any?"  
      Catarina: "we kill each other but only on pvp invasion, no, no have"
      Reporter: "Who is your favorite player? (the one you respect the most)
      Catarina: "Coco"
      Reporter: "Who is the player that you dislike the most in game, not hate just dislike?"
      Catarina: "no have"
      Reporter: "There are rumors that Yami, the guild master of Smurf, is your character, is it true?"
      Catarina: "Yami is my friend, and sometime i play him"
      Reporter: "What you like the most in our server, and what you dislike?"
      Catarina: "nice ppl play here and here is good atmosphere. Some time we kill boss and we don't get rewards....or boss left map when invasion is not finished"
      Reporter: "If you could ask ADMIN any question, what would be the most important that come into your mind?"
      Catarina: "try fix that;p"
      Reporter: "I saw Smurfs registered to Castle, will you do it this time?"
      Catarina: "we can try:] that the only game where we need to be lucky to win"
      Reporter: "What alts do you have in game?(name only if you want but you can say classes)"
      Catarina: "rf and ee"
      Reporter: "Which is your favorite character, is it the Summoner?"
      Catarina: "SM"
      Reporter: "One last question, it came when I was online, today" 
      Reporter: "Some players complained about you, they claim that you use hacks, how do you comment?"
      Catarina: "im be cleare"
      Reporter: "Thank you for time and tell me if it is fine to post this on forum, just say yes or no"
      Catarina: "Yes"
      Thank your very much again, Catarina, continue doing the job!
      If anyone does have questions that you would like to see on the next interviews don't hesitate to friend email me (in-game) at character name Reporter.
    15. Haha
      snake reacted to salam in The Castle is cursed ?   
      It might be 14, too bad you're enjoying it by yourself
       
      That aside, idk if you played NonRR, but we have the same core group of players for over 6 months (Cows, Coco, Youpi, Noisy, Cottonstar, and many others). We stick together and enjoy the game, being it competing for high level bosses or simply screwing around as a low-tier guild. Level and gear doesn't matter, as long as we have fun
    16. Hype
      snake reacted to salam in The Castle is cursed ?   
      As the GM of NONE, my hope is that this won't happen to us. We and our allies have a strong core of players bound by friendship and team play, not by items or level.
      If we lose, this will only make us come back stronger. If we win and keep Lot, the server might receive a nice surprise
