I play Metin2 UK and none is interested on posting here...

 ...Also there is very little or no promoting of the forum on that server.

Then there is Metin2 ES, Metin2 PT, Metin2 IT ... and many more, and what about those? (I think they can come here and discuss in other language since there is a Metin2 DE)

Best Regards.

Based mostly on activity. There is a problem with gameforge since they would probably block / remove links to "other" sites.

Another problem is language barriers - we would need mods or somebody who can understand the language to manage that section.

Maybe if liquiron became more popular then this makes sense, but for now things are the way they are. If new sections were requested we would surely create them. Many of us have experience of being unreasonably silenced on other forums, which was the original (and still an important) reason that liquiron exists :)

Gameforge doesn´t want you to discuss their servers in places where they can´t censor your oppinion. Hence, links to fan forums and any site that is not operated by them (except Youtube for videos, and even then they will check to make sure the video doesn´t have the words "Metin SG" on it) are forbidden on their forums.

They are fully aware that their service is terrible in comparison with any other Metin 2 publisher and they want to keep it that way because that saves them paying a professional staff like .br or .sg do. So the best you can do if you play Metin UK is to play elsewhere.

Notice here people how we take a simple fact (Publisher doesn't allow links / discussion about other publishers or games on their own message boards, a very standard thing) and then add truckloads of our own opinion, hoping you believe that and take it as fact also.

The part I enjoy the most is when you see me make posts like this calling you out and then paint me as somebody who likes G4BOX or Gameforge, when I don't. I'm indifferent to G4BOX, and I dislike Gameforge. If you can prove things about them - great! But you constantly, always, fail to do so.

I may not always agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend your right to say it.

I do post with my account. Dweia is a shared account, I'm not the only person who can post news.

It´s not "my oppinion", it´s what me and everyone have seen after using their board for 3 years, lie after lie and pathetic attempts to hide what everyone is seeing. Gameforge does allow discusion of other games, even other Metin 2 servers, as long as they are not Metin 2 SG. As an example, I posted there my "Freestyler" video which was made in Metin SG. I thought that, Furia Roja being a famous guild from the times we were playing there, they would have the decency to let us show our video to the many friends we still have at metin2.es. The post was closed within 5 minutes with the excuse that "It is not allowed to post videos from other servers here". The funny thing is that 90% of the videos on that forum are from other servers, even private servers, and only mine got closed. So I answered to some other video post from a Longjuwith the words "This is not from metin2.es, close it". 5 minutes later, not only that post didn´t get closed, but I was banned from the board.

Since the mods there are just puppets that follow whatever GF policy tell them to enforce, it´s clear for me that they have received instructions to remove any hint that SG exists from their board, but they don´t seem to mind private servers. This is confirmed if you try to include words such as "tec" or "metinworld" on your post as you get a warning for using banned words.

I would tell you to take a look yourself but the board is of course in spanish and I don´t know if they abuse of users like this in .uk or in the new .us server. What is common of all GF boards is, they will never apologize for their failures or offer any explanation of all the funny stuff going on on their servers. Sometimes you will see someone innocently asking on the forum why there are 30 bots using AoS and Taichi at the same time just in the wild dogs area, only to get his post deleted. It doesn´t happen, it doesn´t exist, thats all they will say, and people are tired of being taken for fools, thats why there was so much expectation about SG when ppl started hearing about it.
