This doesn't matter in the end. And even if it does, you still used the client and all the resources (sounds, models and so on).

Well, in my case I blame Gameforge for the state that this game is in. But I didn't had any high expectations because I know that everything GF touches, dies, and that's a fact. Regarding the source, I'm pretty sure I didn't steal it. But I agree with you they have all the rights to act against p-servers that are ruin this community, Rubinum wasn't one of the servers that ruin the community. And about the copyrights laws, I'm pretty sure that Iran doesn't have any, and other 2-3 countries. At the rate that sources are modified, we can talk about open source.

Completely bullshit. You are declaring stQuestName: std::string stQuestName = pPC->GetCurrentQuestName(); if (pQS->quest_name.length() != 0) stQuestName = pQS->quest_name; But where is the control or check? You don't use it... why???

Well, it seems like it's time to dust off my old account... Another m2dev user and I have been working for the past almost two years in our free time in order to create a new server concept (with a lot of technical improvements etc. It's still not ready if you're asking). This is a major roadblock for us. At least for me, Metin2 is the game that taught me a lot about programming. I always experimented with P Servers and have been in the field for almost eight full years now. In these eight years, I never, not even once had any account greater than lvl. 30 on any GF server. I don't have a clue how to get a horse on an official server. And frankly, I don't care. Because it's not fun and private servers offered a much better and complete experience, including everything from the community to gameplay. To me, private servers are what define Metin2's culture, and I guess it's normal to be this way: there's a lot more room to experiment with the game when you can make your own pserver. You're not tied to the hands of all-mighty Gameforge. In a sense, what Gameforge is trying to achieve here can be compared to a dictatorship of sorts. They're dying and, like a cornered animal, are desperately trying to keep their "monopoly" and squeeze every last euro-cent out of the player's pockets. Just look at those stupid updates which came out in the past... idk, 4 years? Do they have anything to do with the essence of Metin2? It depends on one's taste, of course, but I think the majority would argue that those updates are no more than a money-grabbing technique. I'm not sure if many people look at the Pserver scene this way, but what we are is essentially a modding community. A game which can't be modded becomes dull after a while, be it a couple of months or a year. Yet games that are moddable still thrive. What GF & Webzen (or whoever owns Metin2 nowadays) don't realise is you can't have a free market without options. By each day, we're seeing Gameforge marching centimetre by centimetre towards killing Metin2 alltogether. Unless they'll come up with a way of accepting PServers on the market, they'll die. I'm aware that you could argue that M2 is their Intellectual Property, yet you could as well argue that laws serve the people, and if people want change, then it's rightful to do so. Enough ethics in this rant. I guess if we have to stay underground, pre-paid credit cards and Russian/(maybe even Swiss?) servers are an option. Or we could go back to the old days to a Hamachi-like experience. Maybe hosting servers through a large, community-owned VPN server? Maybe we're just being angry for no reason. GF will die one day and the PServer community, albeit shrinking, will outlive them, and then it's free real estate for all of us. Le roi est mort, vive le roi. </rant>
