HOWEVER, they're still vulnerable just with the right non-donation equips, so you can strikeout that word "always". The only difference is that strong donor equips can be obtained if worked hard for in real life. While the strong non-doner equips can be obtained if worked hard for ingame.

I'm certainly curious as to how a non-don can tally up to some of the donation item effects, such as:

Marshmallow hat(top headgear): Reduce Demi-Human Damage by 35%, 1 slot.

Melee Energy Ring(mid headgear): +20% physical damage, 1 slot.

Night Vision Googles(mid headgear): Increase range by 4 (Note that 4 cells is even more than what spears get), 1 slot.

Sky fairy wings(low headgear): Decrease aftercast delay by 45%

Proof you don't need donates to pwn or need money to get donates?

@Rena, You are clearly lying on how long you've played RO, and for your information i have played dRO for around 4-5 months. Just to let you know, haze modify his online amount by at least 100-150, so if there is 300 there is actually 200 and then when you minus all the venders there is actually only 100 at most people online.

i think people have to go to school again to know what ~ means? i think its not really hard maybe use google xD
but ok for everyone ~ means around so it can be +-1-3 years

Chexmix

To summarize

games =/= RL

opinions =/= facts

8 =/= 10

And it's kind of pointless to try and dispute how one person feels about a server, regardless of his accusations you will not change his mind by being obnoxious.

When real money is involved, real life is into it too.
I'm not trying to change his mind. I just want people to know that he pretty much made some mistakes on some of those things in his review, such as GMs abusing their power and donation items being OP. By the way, the GM accounts have been configured so there will ALWAYS be a GM online at all times. That takes out what he mentioned as "inactive GMs".

Unless someone has a strong reason, they don't spend time to post such a long review on the forums. The only reason they would lie about it is if they felt strongly enough over something that happened to try and bring harm to the server (and since the accusations weren't that dire, I doubt it). If he is wrong, then the most probable thing would be a misunderstanding over whatever.

By trying so hard to defend donation items (which people can draw their own opinions on since they can see the stats) and calling the reviewer a liar is not helping you. Honestly enough the responses and bickering over the thread will make people want to believe the reviewer more. Just drop it.

This is all I have to say "Stop being HaZe's dog and lick his foot every time you try to reply to my post", it's really pointless for you to argue. If you haven't notice already, the only people that try to defend this server is either: 1. dRO Staff 2. HaZe's personal suck ups. Find which one you belong to, then write and sign and place it on top of your head, please and thank you.

Those two links doesn't really show anything, First link shows that HaZe himself knows that donation is overpowering, and he does nothing to decrease the gap (V4P clone does not decrease the gap). Second link shows stuff that most people know how to do already, go try using his method and see if you can kill two people using two different things on your own. 2 donors vs 2 non-donors, good luck trying to win if you are on the non-donate side.

You know that little system that nonie has that try to make it so that at least one GM is online at a time, isn't really working at all, there is no such thing as there is one GM on at a time, or it might just mean that GMs aren't doing their job in replying to people's @request, it's one or the other, choose your pick. By the way, I am guessing your one of those people that think RO is real life, chill out, take a chill pill and then maybe get some fresh air. And also another thing, all you are doing is going up against one/two of my points, my 'donation' point and my 'GM inactive" point, so I assuming that everything else that i have listed is correct.

Dreamer-RO is garbage, always will be garbage. Any Admin who doctored the hell out of his online player count in order to entice people to join should be hung.

Corrupt little tards like HaZe are the exact type of owner that piss me off.

Rena: I think you need to learn when the shut the hell up, you're annoying and obviously kissing HaZe's donkey. Leave.
I like your way of thinking lol

GMs abusing their power hasn't been proven.

Donations being OP'd has been proven, thoroughly. Hell, you even posted a link to a topic in which the admin acknoledges the donation items to be OP (for a reason, so he says). I'm still curious as to what items can be obtained in-game to counter if not tally the effects of the donation items I listed. Don't come and tell me a 195 ASPD sinx with a 4-cell range is, in any way, easy to defeat.

This is a bit of a continuation to this topic:http://www.ratemyserver.net/forum/server-hall-of-shame/dreamerro/0/
I have been playing this server for awhile now, i just want to leave some comments:


Server:
Stability: 8
Well this server is pretty decent in not crashing or freezing up, but it does have it lag times throughout the day.

Lag? Everytime I lag is because my sister is using Ares or those online games.

Availability: 9
It isn't often, its mostly down when there is an update to be made or when something big happens to the server.
I'd give a 10, currenly @uptime status is almost 9 days. The last time it was down was because he added the 3-1 sprites.

Quote from: HolyOne on Mar 26, 2009, 07:17 PM
Community:
Friendliness: 3
The Server's people really isn't that friendly at all, most of the time, people will ignore you, the only people that actually respond to you are the GMs that "have" to, since they are doing their job, other than that, they don't really help you.

Im RARELY friendly with people who say "Zenny please", "Equips please", those Fags get a few equips and never log in again ever. How I know? They got me as friend.

Quote from: HolyOne on Mar 26, 2009, 07:17 PM
Eventfulness: 5
Well there are automatic events now, but still its the same thing every time. There aren't actual GM that does events anymore the most active time was when Bunneh and GM Juliet were still GMs and were doing events at least everyday and to keep the server active.

Automatic events are pretty fun. And GMs DO make events. If u ingore them its not my problem.

Friendliness: 4
I got to say, the GMs now are abit power hungry, they will abuse their power most of the time, the rule system in this server isn't perfect in anyway and the GMs/Admins don't do anything with it, not even by fixing it up. The higher up GMs/Admins dont help non-donors at all, instead they are ignored and forgotten in this server. While we are at this topic of friendliness, I think personally the server host himself acts too much on his emotion when making a choice in anything. He also ignores alot of "good" ideas that the server player has to offer, and he just brushes it off.

huh? have u really seen the server? most of the custom thingies were brought by the players.

Quote from: HolyOne on Mar 26, 2009, 07:17 PM
Availability: 1
I don't think they are even any GM that are actually on anymore besides GM Switch, and maybe sometimes GM Rhiann, the rest has dissappear. Everytime I @request for a GM, there are none that are online to respond to the help. And when HaZe is even online, he doesn't do any support at all.
Haze the admin is not supposed to make any support, if you got some errors, report them in forums, he is supposed to read them.

Quote from: HolyOne on Mar 26, 2009, 07:17 PM
Game-play:
Economy: 1
Economy is pretty much corrupted due to the amount of MvP cards are in the server, and the amount of "double" donation gear you receive each time you donate 40$ or more. Zeny lost its value, but that is the same for any high rate.

If u got a normal brain, ud think that if donates are CHEAP, obviously u have more chances to have them. I got like x3 donates of EACH, trading MvP cards, and Zeny is useful, dont lie.

Quote from: HolyOne on Mar 26, 2009, 07:17 PM

Guild Competition: 9
This might actually be the only thing good about this server, it actually have alot of guild-type war in PvP most of the time, but at the same time if you aren't in the major guild (GS, UT, NF) then you are pretty much ganged by them in DM(DeathMatch) Arena.ver, you can find it out yourself on if I rated this server correctly or not.


3 Main guilds, why don't u join them? duh.

Quote from: HolyOne on Mar 26, 2009, 07:17 PM

Class Balance: 1
There is no balance at all with classes, the donation gear that are in the server creates a very unbalance PvP/WoE environment. All you see in PvP are Sac Pallies, Creator, Sinx, the other classes are "rare" or you have to be fully donation gear to be good/kill-able at the class.

Well that is my review on this server, I don't feel like finding screen shots or finding proof to back up my points, since if you join this server, you can find it out yourself on if I rated this server correctly or not.


Class Balance:1? LOLOLOLOLOLOL, I got 9 chars in my account and ive PWND other full equipped ppl, I kill with champ, wizz,sinx, stalker, paladin, lk and creator. I'm pretty sure u just suck @ RO. You probably got pwned and thats it. Hahaha.

I've played more than 20 servers, LRs, Mids, and HRs. And this is by far, the best.

TIP: When u start in one server all u have to do is work/hunt. If u dont then dont play RO. ^^

sigh guys, your not suppose to fight with the reviewer, you actually only suppose to post in the review section if your going to make a review, or argue factual information made in one....

Poki

@XS

Good for you to know where you lag comes from.  Now I don't see how that has anything to do with the review that HolyOne has made.
Go make your own review, I don't care what rating you would give DreamerRO especially in HolyOne's review.
I'm RARELY friendly with idiots who post their opinions in hope to shatter a review that they don't like.
----------------------

The reviews and replies you people give is opinion based and mainly opinion based.  There are probably some facts somewhere along in the review but if you deem the review is a lie, then by all means, post some FACTS rather than your own OPINIONS.
And by facts, I mean proof.

Also, go make your own damn review if you can only give us your opinions in HolyOne's review.

Communist

I've played dreamer-RO the 2nd day it came out, with a good 50 population, since dreamer created a lot of hype.

I know two gms, Ellie and Rhiann, who are both very capable, but are also very busy. (Ellie is lacking in school at the moment.)

Now, the availability of the server itself is just fine, the only time I really receive lag is when people spam skills.

The economy is very lacking, as with any untended highrate: The economy are just items and cards themselves.

Now, class balance is also very weak. They have, I believe, not taken more than 10 minutes to come up with how they would like to balance their 500 stat (you can even get more stats by doing quests,) server.

Thanatos card is still existant, they have a hat where heal and sanctuary get doused with 500% more capacity.

Community is just fine, as I see, however people who define themselves as big wigs on the server find no need to speak with a "proletariat."

They have very good customization, and very good quests though. Also, they have a nifty "Time Machine" where they can set your character at a different rate, and max level of 99.

Anyways-- I've only lurked on these forums without making an account, but hi to you allz.

saudi!

Levitation

After about a year of having not played Ragnarok I decided to try the top ranked server, which is DreamerRO. And I must say, I was rather disappointed, most of what HolyOne said was true. When I logged in there was a single GM on, and he was just logging off, I don't remember his name. My computer has been upgraded twice and is more powerful than the last time I played RO, I was lagless then and on DreamerRO I lagged horrendously, and no, I don't have any other programs running, nobody else is on my network It's just me, and DreamerRO. Loading screens which "back in the day" took half a second now took 10+ seconds, I even logged onto 4 other MMO's to check the lag there(Dream of Mirror Online, Mabinogi, Megaten, and Maplestory), I had none. The population boasted 546 players, which I thought was impressive, until I saw that the item mall held 140 of those people, while the DeathMatch arena only held 40(still good). The population was practically DEAD, I went to every city and walked around a bit, found like 3 groups of people talking, a total of about 12-16 players, 2 of the 3 groups weren't speaking english. I was new to the server, so I asked a few things about the server, nobody responded, ever. Is asking a question about the server begging? I think not. I never beg. The economy is warped beyond belief, I've played tons of RO servers, and I've only ever liked one, which no longer exsists. I love RO, but I hate the massive grind of low and mid rates, so high rates are for me. When I say the economy is warped beyond belief, almost all ordinary item drops are worth 1.5x their iRO value(in shops) which destroys the value of zeny. Weapons, such as the +10 Pike which would cost me 10k on my old server, and about 15k on most every server I've played costs a WHOPPING 5mil. This @noks system was horrendous, AoE casters had the entire map's worth of monsters to themselves in all of the good leveling areas. PVP was retarded, I warped in(maxed out Lord Knight) and died in about 2 seconds, as the moment I warped in I was sac'd by not one or two, but FIVE paladins. So I figured I had bad luck and respawned, well, second time I lived about 3 times longer(still only 6 seconds) as I didn't spawn RIGHT next to the swarm of paladins, more like off to the side, I got in one bowling bash before i died, impressive eh? They were of course, all guildies, so obviously the guild ganging is an issue, however this @nogang system sounds just as horrendously corrupt as the @noks system is for wizards. To a brand new player, DreamerRO is, overwhelming... I HIGHLY suggest that if you're going to join DreamerRO, sign up for an account several days ahead of time and vote every day, twice a day if you can as many days ahead as you can, as these Vote for Point items are overpowering to anyone who doesn't have them(i.e. new players). Now, I noticed Raine saying it's the most balanced HR server s/he's played on, this wasn't even remotely the case for me, anyone who's played a month is decked out in items so powerful they'd be considered donation items on practically every other server out there, and then the people with actual donates, well, let's just say it's like throwing ping pong balls at a very angry bear. Nothing eventful happened in my 16 hours of play, no GM logged in after the initial GM logged out. things that don't really matter, but I still found extremely irritating would be that in order to use the 3-1 sprites, the 2-1 sprites were forfeit, now you can't even tell what class you're up against when it comes to 3-1 and 2-1 people, until of course their trying to kill you, or if they actually decide to talk to you. Also when you don't have a top headgear or a mid headgear on, there's generic hat and wings, THAT YOU CANNOT REMOVE. the top hat was cool for about 20 minutes, at which point it was irritating, the wings were still okay for a while longer. I noticed the female equivalent is kind of cute, but it seems too much like something a priestess would wear, on every class. there's a couple of custom hairstyles thrown in, but you don't get that good of a look at them... as you always have a hat on. In 16 hours of play, I found 2 people that would actually talk to me. I also noticed that inside the npc mall, items(non weapons/armor) are priced so much higher than standard iRO prices. Point in case: Magnifier iRO:40z dRO:5,000z, Oridecon: iRO:1,100z dRO:85+k(i don't remember the exact value, it was something like 85,600). Basically the economy of DreamerRO is that of item for item trading. Things that require only 2 days or 4 Vote for Point(vote twice a day = two days) sell for 50+million zeny. Inside of the Deathmatch arena I never saw a single class other than Paladins, Creator(BioChemist) or Assasin Cross'. Other than myself, I'm not saying that they weren't there, they were probably also being mobbed by sac pally's the first few seconds of arriving. Not that it's a big deal, but whichever GM was on when I first logged in, it was very hard to read his broadcasts, dark purple over a black is very hard on the eyes. Isn't GM speech supposed to be yellow, or sometimes red? You know, easy to read colors? I did like the pets, however in some cases it was hard to tell just what was a pet, and what wasn't a player.


Overall, I'd give DreamerRO a score, on a scale of 0-10 a *6* unless I'm allowed to give a decimal score, then I'd give it a *5.7*  :-\

And before anybody retorts that I was a newbie and suck, that's why I have a problem. I've played RO since the iRO open beta. I know what I'm doing, I was a little rusty, having not played for a little over a year, but I remembered all of my builds, cards, maps, so on and so forth after a mere 15 minutes.

I won't recommend DreamerRO to anyone, however, anyone who does join, if you're going to play a melee class that until you're in your 300+ level range has terrible SP, get yourself a Blue Acidus Card, with how much editing Dreamer RO has, it gives +4000 maxSP(100x the iRO standard +40) SP and [If refine level 0~4] additional +4000 maxSP, just throw it into a cheapy cap you buy anywhere for 2,000 zeny and your level 100 Lord Knight goes from 254 maxSP to 10,254 maxSP(how this adds up properly is beyond me).

Bump!

Some are true but most are false  :D dreamer-RO is a great server hehe! It will not peak 700+ players now if it isn't great. haha! I think these players that post bad comments about dreamer-ro were got owned in pvp. Haze is a great admin but of course you need money thats why you make a server :D IMO. About the server's economy lol. New in the server? Can't Donate? Well farm 1B from treasure boxes or Gold and you got your 20$ donation wings or helm  :) see? Many players now sell donation for zenies because Haze has implemented some quest etc. that players need zenies badly. haha its funny though. Playing 2 weeks in the server and you will get your full equip donation items.

@HaZe
Yeah the server need money and you have lots of money now but please don't allow edited items for 500$-1000$ donators haha.

@Ppl who dont like the server
Compared to the other servers lol this RO is much better.
