If you are Brazilian, and this offends you, then you should just stop reading now.
I'm not racist either - however, I believe the reason so many brazilians/philipino players do this is because 99% of all larger RO servers are made up of a large Brazilian and Filipino population, so, if they get caught, they just play another server, knowing that they will have friends or another speaker of their native language waiting for them.
Us English players might as well give up hope. Why? Because there are no servers that are comfortably large and have a good sized english population.
Now, on the other hand, this game has been advertised and played more in other countries than the US, so of course it will attract more players from the Philippines.
A lot of Brazilians and Filipinos actually do take the time to learn english and try to communicate to us via English, however, most of the time it just comes out as "ha u r br?" or something similar. This is why I believe RO is a lost cause for the English players.
I always did find it ironic how the majority of servers are run by primarily English speakers/natives of the English language, and yet none play the actual server.
These are my opinions, and thoughts - again, if you are offended by my way of thinking, then that's on you. I won't apologize for speaking my mind.
Not everyone has/will bot... that's a pretty asinine generalization to make.
I fully agree with this, just because you take the easy way and other people do too does not mean that everyone will! There are still some honest people in the world and/or people who will not want to take the chance of seeing all they worked for ruined if they get caught.
I very much agree with this statement. Just because some Brazilians and Filipinos scam, hack, and cheat, it does not mean that all of them do. It only shows as them, because they're the only ones playing the server most of the time. Go to XileRO, DarkRO, NamelessRO, any large server, and try to find English players. Exactly, so it's difficult to back something up like that.
Unfortunately, in the OP's case, it was a guild that did it. Well, that was the guild, not all of the Brazilian population. Great, leave the server, move on.
Honestly, just quit RO if you are unhappy. That's what I did, and I don't care much to be honest. Wait for RO2 to come out, as it should be within the next 6 months (international version, that is).
This all boils down to different cultures unable to accept each other's differences, and this has been going on for hundreds of years. It's human nature, for the most part. I, personally, have no problems with Brazilians or Filipinos - i just have a problem with lack of English players.
