@Symbiote:
I am curious about one thing though:
My review does not only mention their lack of security. Why is it so difficult for your poor mind to comprehend, dear? I'm just not understand how it is that an Administrator for such a popular website is so oblivious. My review contains the same, if not more than, at least 70% of the reviews on the website. Security can fall under the server's stability, I'm sorry to let you know.
You gave the server's stability a 7 and majority of your review was based on security. For something so negative on the server's security which links with the server's stability, why on Earth did you give it a 7?
You're correct, 7 is too high for all of the issues. In fact, quite a few things are rated higher than I'd have liked to given. The main reason was to lower the chance of my review being deleted, as I had a feeling this would happen (it has before, after all). When reposting my review, I've considered lowering it, and I
should lower it, however, I'm sure I would get called out on doing so. Thus, I haven't.

Okay, I will try to reach a conclusion here. It will be the last attempt and if it fails, you can just spam this topic all you want and I won't be reading it any longer. You can refuse my suggestion like you always do. Then I will simply conclude that there is no point arguing with someone from Mars.
I am reading this topic, http://www.ratemyserver.net/forum/suggestionsrequests/rms-review-character-limit which poki just made a new reply. Can you, Mr. Symbiote please demonstrate to me/us a 500 character version of your review that you are disputing. Just post it here. In order to be a valid review, with respect to the review guidelines, I hope you can include more of your in-game experience, your opinion on certain features such as those included in the rating categories (server, community, gm, gameplay) and any other opinion that you would like to share to potential player of the server.
Well if you made that suggestion, at least give me a feel of how it will work. I sincerely hope you can do that. I am already planning and thinking of increasing the char limit to 500. Not a lot but since you suggested and 500 is a limit you wish to have based on the other topic. We could give that a try. You will get the block removed from your main account and will be able to post the new review. That's if you can do as suggested and the review contain element of a general review to a server, not just hacking and virus.
Didn't notice this post. Anyway, I still don't see a reason to revise my current review, as it
still does not break
any guidelines
whatsoever. However, given the limit were increased to 500, I'd revise it anyway. Also, do
not delete this thread, or anything in it, even if it is resolved, or prepare for a sh!tstorm.
"Essence security is horrible. I was able to gain unauthorized Admin access for nearly a year, and take control of the server on Halloween '08. Tira and the staff still did not learn their lesson, as they recently allowed a virus to be passed among the community through their patchers. With the introduction of the 'new' classes, the little balance the server had is even worse. Zeny is overly abundant, and you will often find yourself pondering the staff's abilities. Read RMS forums for more."ServerStability: 2 | Availability: 8

I'd also recommend that you take heed of Ayu's suggestion, as it is a great one. There can be an extra option added to review to include a link to a forum review that has expanded upon the contents of the 500-limit review. Require the review have 400 characters minimum before the option becomes available, so that they cannot link to a server advertisement thread on the forums with a half-donkey review, and allow the reviewer to enter a topic number instead of an entire URL, so that they cannot link to other sites.
Lastly, you will need to create a separate topic for a separate report if you want any response on that. Because it allows me to ask questions and get answers directly. Without jumping into conversation regarding this topic itself.
No, actually. I don't "need" to create anything separate. You can clearly see how
the review breaks guidelines, there is no need to communicate with me about the review, nor ask me questions about the review. So remove it, per the rules.
