OriginalRO not so original

[Kensei]

cant believe you guys are so uptight bout somrthing that isnt originally urs in the first place. sounds like a bunch of hyprocrites to me, sorry...

Cry harder newfag. You don't even bring valid points why this matter should be dismissed.

[Hummingbird]

I am 100% sure that the thread starter came from OriginalRO.  This person played Original RO then switch to that server and saw the same post.

To be honest, nobody from Original RO gives that much attention to that post.

@Topic

PureRO Owner here.

This was brought to my attention not too long ago as someone has posted it to our forums as well. We did not give OriginalRO or CycloneRO any permission to use our text or images. Triper is correct, the main image used was done using the same Bifrost image that appears in nearly every mention of the episode. The other images use sprites and mini-map images. We did not draw these images but have edited them to our liking which is what most servers do, so I have no problem with that. This is obviously copied and is using the same exact edited images from our site.

There should be no question as to who's text that belongs to between PureRO, OriginalRO, and CycloneRO. "Equipment boxes which contain an assortment of equipment already available" is pretty unique to PureRO so I'm surprised that they didn't bother removing that text (unless they also made custom equipment box items like ours). Notice how the post dates from CycloneRO and OriginalRO are posted on dates after we've posted ours? Besides, from Triper's post it looks like they didn't just copy from us but from IntenseRO as well.

In short, I'm not the Admin of OriginalRO or CycloneRO and did not give either of them permission to use any of our images or text. I wouldn't be surprised if IntenseRO did not give them permission as well.

Thank you for clarifying and posting on this thread. I hope you and our Admin can talk this over via PM. I'm sure he will tell you everything why it ended up like this. You can even ask him to delete that thread if thats what makes you happy. 

@Triper

May I ask if you have any suggestion that can possibly resolve this issue?  

It's really a shame because OriginalRO has actually a lot of potential, I would come back if I wasn't banned.

All the people who got banned in our server always say that. It really has a lot of potential. One of the best Renewal servers out there. That's the charm of our server. So you guys should check out Original RO

Seems that they also jacked their server rules page, lulz.

@Triper

May I ask if you have any suggestion that can possibly resolve this issue?  

The only way I can see this resolved is the admin clears/edit everything that he copied in his two servers [OriginalRO and CycloneRO] as it's usually done in this cases.

At this rate, I really wonder what is Original in the server ...

[ghrim]

Oh look what the donation npc has to say in prontera...

Stealing here and there and call it your own.. at least make sure to check what you have stolen and replace the name AT THE VERY LEAST

[inzanity]

Original RO/Cyclone RO are pretty much the same server as far as i know.


Original RO edited the Rules (Wiki, website will be updated later) and 14.1 Episode post to supress any further drama that is being caused here.

The GM told me he will edit anything else the Admin has "copied".

Cry harder newfag. You don't even bring valid points why this matter should be dismissed.

Where am im crying f***? My point was pretty valid. Were (mostly) talking about official content that you find on every renewal server. Merely how the info is displayed was copied and technically were all copying from gravity. All admins make money with stolen pirated software. I tell you, hypocrites.

Oh im being favoured by the GM now because i give positive feedback because i like the server? f*** logic, right? I have 0 favourism or any privis over other players. Unlike other people though, i dont try to sell my MVP cards for real life money, flame every person in main chat and actually now how to play this game. Thanks for your very informative post.

OH MY GOD DO YOU EVEN DO YOUR RESEARCH?

Read here then start talking ok? http://code.google.com/p/fluxcp/
And maybe here: http://rathena.org/board/topic/90428-ringame-npc-exchange-donation-point-to-cash-point/?hl=donation

Flux is a CP. Its a bought script PLENTY of servers use.

[ghrim]

No I didn't do any research because I assumed there is a server named FluxRO and it was stolen from there. ( There was actually one called that way. http://www.rotop100.com/5722/ )
How else should one interpret when an npc says something like that?
Maybe I am mistaken, sorry.
They probably use the flux control panel on their site and npc for donations ... although I am not really sure what the control panel has to do with the npc description.
Why not just change the name in the npc box to OriginalRO at least?
It would make a lot more sense

[Triper]

Flux is a CP. Its a bought script PLENTY of servers use.

Bought? Flux is free, what are you talking about? Anyone can get it free and here for rathena.

The npc into question is just not edited as anyone can see in here or in the same folder in the link you gave for the eathena version. In case you can't see, check the following code boxs:

Code Select Expand

// Server Name
        set .serverName$,"FluxRO";

Code Select Expand

mes "I am here to allow for the redemption of rewards for donations to " + .serverName$ + ".";
So yes, in this case it's not copied, it's just not edited to match the name of the server.

[inzanity]

k sry bout the bought part. mistake on my side. i think most scripts are pay to get these days.

Stop posting some lies shadowz. Some of your members are still playing Original RO and joined other guild. I ask  why they didnt join you on your new server, you know what they said? "NEVAHHHHH"  "No way, i inveseted too much on this server"

You should also stop telling people that they don't know anything, it's not nice .

you also said the "We made bad review about this server" and you still played oRO? You guys are weird.

and pleaseee stop the favoritism issue, admin is always nice to all the players. Unless if you've broke some rules.   

The only way I can see this resolved is the admin clears/edit everything that he copied in his two servers [OriginalRO and CycloneRO] as it's usually done in this cases.

At this rate, I really wonder what is Original in the server ...

Whaaaaaaaat? this can be resolved by doing that? that's easy! Ok i will ask our admin to do that. 

and you should try Original RO if you have time those people who left our server says that Original RO is one of the best renewal server out there. Even those who got banned say that. Pretty odd right? why would they even say that if they already left that server. 

I want this thread to be locked soon. We have gained some new players now because of this thread, i hope those who advertise their server here got a few 

230+ online today and uhmm 40+ are vendors. You can count them on vending area if you want.

lie? the remaining member is just a new comer, and im not playing that server anymore 

[Gankare]

Wait, you guys are actually making a big deal out of this?

#1. RO private servers are property that has been STOLEN from Gravity.
#2. Everyone that hosts a private server is using stolen material and makes money out of it by "donations".
#3. Everyone that plays on that server are using stolen material.
#4. RMS is funded by ads and the people that visit this site are manly people that are playing on private servers. Which still is stolen property.
#5. If you had any kind of brains at all, you would've understood that this is basically accusing someone for stealing when you were the first one to steal.

This is what it sounds like to me:           
"Hehehe, I'm going to host a private server. I'm going to make money.
I'll need to steal the game from somewhere. Oh, s***! Someone stole MY game from me! BURN HIM ON THE BONFIRE! HE IS A THEIF!!!!1111oneone"

[Novus Orbis]

I hate all of these rant and raves.Here's so triper doesn't remove this. What's the big deal, they've already stolen those from Gravity in the first place. They're advertising the same maps and the same game. Just my two cents, hate me all you want Why can't people make/administer RO for the fun of it like in the days of yore? So I propose we make SwitzerlandRO

Based in snowy mount Mjolnir, it features 100% original sprites, maps, and NPCs, custome weapons and gears, storyboard and dialogue.
Tired of farming zenny? Well now other servers can invest their zenny into SwitzerlandRO and make huge profits in their secure and un-taxed bank accounts! Bards are renamed Yodelers(Jodler), and alchemists as Cheesemakers(Käser). Knights become the Swiss Guard and Supernovices are now Swiss army knives.It will remain completely neutral towards other servers, as it wants peace and playfulness like in the olden days.(Chemi-Crush and some coders, make pls   /ene)
