GF dont do the same... trust me. I played 2 years on metin2.es.
1º Corruption everywhere, people with items dont implemented (like Dragon/tiger acc).
2º In any moment, you are banned.
3º In any moment, one person have the same items (bonus & stones) that you lost suddenly days ago and you try find a gm, after 2 days on hard search, they just say: "dont share acc", b1tch plis, I dont share acc, if you could waste 2 min checking logs, you should know
4º In my 2 years on .es, 4 events , and all unplayables, due to the lag, and channel full
5º In my 2 years on .es, I learn by myself and friend, NEVER a gm answer me a doubt
6º Gold sellers everywhere, and ofc, owned by GF
7º Bots everywhere.
8º Dont ban hackers.
9º People using a unknown bug "ht acc +9 with 100% succ" without being banned, when if you check forum name, check he is offering x10 price of a normal pearl and in log you saw he use the item...but yes, they are MODs and GM friends, why should they be banned.
10º Fishing bots without being banned.
11º People unbanning himself
12º They censored the word "SEA" "metinworld", because they dont want lost his preciates 'ignorant' people, and lie saying SG is a april joke and a P.server.
13º They promised updates, oh wait..when I started they promised updates and after i left, they dont update anything...oh wait there was more BUGS than when I started.
Well, i dont remember more, but I can say more shit about GF, nothing here is a lie, all was posted with screenshot, but fastly deleted.
Are you saying s2 is the same as GF? GF is not bussines, for me is a fking lich, absorbs the happiness of ignorant people and treat is like rubbish.
A lot of friends got scammed, banned, and the answer for all is 'dont share acc". I will hate GF for the rest of my life, they made a great game like metin2 in a shit for all spanish comunity so please, dont compare with another publisher I like, Thanks. Only comparable with GF is a greedy person who dont care about anything that is not himself.
