Erm, I'm inclined to think that what you did wasn't exactly legal.
It's very legal... the money went to the game not me -.-* and the GMs had no problem with it.

Thats not even a good enough reason... 1) You dont like playing with kids? learn to deal with it. 2)Quality and Support? Free games have that... what kind of support you are looking for? (As for Quality Rappelz is known for its uber graphics... I cant lie WoW has some nice graphics, I dont know how to campare garphics but Rappelz and WoW have matched graphics quality to me)I don't know what other type of Quality you are talking about. (maybe bugs etc. but, i dont want to make a huge post.

It depends on what you are looking for in a game that makes it Boring) i.e. People play Runescape (free) BORING AS HELL TO ME!, yet for people that play that either dont have the comp for the game to download, or find something in that game (i dont know what) that is very fun., Maplestory Boooooring (2d? GAY!) yet people that play the game dont find it boring.

I'd P2P2P(Pay2Pay2Play), just for Aion, Diablo. lol

Eww, Rappelz is a HORRIBLE game, full of glitches, void of story, and nothing but the grinder quests people complain of.

My point of how people find games bad/boreing. Even though Rappelz is not void of story... and grinder quests (they have dungeons not just quests and some people like to grind.... O.o). I find the game Very fun. I can deal with the very minor bugs rappelz have, the game is still fun.

Ah, my mistake. I had took it to mean that you made $200 from selling a sword to another player.

1) I'd say that you'd have to put up with considerably less kids on a P2P game, but I wouldn't label it as the main reason to have it that way.

2) I can't compare quality..since I've never played Rappelz. I doubt it's better, though...or Rappelz would be the well known one - not WoW.

Meh, it's slightly annoying, but it's only 50c/day. Half the price of a candy bar or bag of chips.

Obviously those who play it don't find it boring...or they wouldn't be playing. As for the consistant flow of content...it seems those who need to keep their members so they get paid will work harder on the new content they work on.

Just my 2c.

I don't see how 15$ is a lot, in my country that's like x8 0.5 litre coke bottles / x8 small chocolate bars. I doubt you've got no leftover money after payin the necessities, might as well spend 15$ of leftovers on a game then on some other crap, so you're just being cheap

Pay to play is the way to go. If you think $15 dollars is a lot then you probably shouldn't be wasting your money on video games anyway.

Exactly why i play free games I just dont see the reason behind paying monthly for a game, when there is clearly other means. You havent given a reason why pay to play is ok. you're just spamming O.o

The difference in quality between Rappelz and WoW is huge. Let me rephrase that, the quality between Rappelz and the top mmo games is huge. I used to play Rappelz actually. If you started playing at the beginning like I did, I used a buff exploit where I made my buffs lvl255 when I was a level 30 kahuna. I went around killing everyone. It took me about 4 days to get banned. I wasn't being subtle about it either, I was even giving out buffs and asking people in the general chat if they wanted it.


Rappelz is decent for a free game. But as a p2p game, it wouldn't cut it. If I have to pay more money for Aion to not have the same problems as Rappelz, so be it.

*lost* Cant Aion do that w/o doing p2p?

Rappelz is wayy updated and waaaayyy different from that time you've played (I played rappelz since ver.1)

And you've got no real reason as to why paying is not okay When you go to the store and buy food do you ask if you can have it for free?

You can't really go 'round and tell people to lower their prices because you're a cheapskate.
