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.
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.
