   I had been playing Nova since its beta but now I quit because of certain changes that were made . So I decided to update my outdated review.

Server
Stability (9/10)
Availability 10/10
The server has been stable since its start, haven’t been any crashes. So far I haven’t experienced any lag. It has been up and running for 4 months now. The only time server is offline is during maintenance which is for a few minutes.

Community
Friendliness (8/10)
Eventfulness (8/10)
Although it’s a PK server almost all some of the members are friendly and are willing to help new members with quests or finding NPCs. Some organize random ET runs /Cursed Baphomet quests(they usually solo).  There are automated events like Mr. Poring, Mush Mush, Brown Cow  also GM event Bomberman  wherein you can win cash points or a cool looking styling head gear or both. 

Game Master
Friendliness (8/10)
Availability (8/10)
Helpfulness (8/10)
As far as I have seen GMs are friendly, available, and helpful. They make sure that all your questions are answered. They are open to suggestions in-game. In case they are offline you can leave a question or suggestion in the forum, for sure u will get an answer. After Seph quit, a simple Spirit control bug is yet to be fixed. (which usually gets fixed immediately or less than an hour)

Game Play
Economy (7/10)
There are around 90+ vendors online. Farming is quite easy but since the boss drops are set to x10 boss cards and equips are a bit pricy. Either you can choose to hunt for the items or can always farm for zeny and can buy from the vendors. There is almost always someone buying or selling on main chat. Donations HGs are costume HGs and its available to others through GM trade.

Guild Competition (6/10)
The server has 2 major guilds and one new guild. Competition is not that great most of the time its boring esp the two FEs on sunday.

Class Balance (9/10)
Since it’s a PK server with renewal mechanics, GMs are working hard to achieve skill balance for all classes. skills are balanced with custom fixes to encourage fair game play (GM Seph had already balanced 95% of them ).

Overall (81/100)
Nova was fun when Seph was taking care. After he quit the server population went down, new changes were made, new GMs, bugs not getting fixed like it used to be, donation credits transfer is going to be stopped from March 21st or so the forum says.  Feel free to give it a try and post your opinion http://nova.limit-ro.net/..

P.S.
This is just my updated review feel free to post if you have a difference of opinion. And to those of you who are wondering no 'm not banned on nova(yet seems Lai is on a banning spree heard he banned two players for speaking their mind in just 2days) I quit cuz got tired of all the dramas.
