NOticed over the past week there are a few players I cannot seem to attack in blade areana. I click on the little sowrd and nothing happens. This is not a one time occurance, it happens everytime I try to attack certain players (about 3 of them). Other people can attack then ( i got some freidns to try) with no bug. Thanks! (oh and can you consider bringing back the random battle for blades, gives the low levels more of a chance).

Topic: Wartune / Wartune Events for April!

A question about the gamestop/watune contest thing: Is their any text or graphical confirmation we have entered and met the requirements (like most of these have on kong)? I’d love to take your word, but ya know a receipt is better.;) Thanks!

Topic: Shadowland Online / Pls turn off Battle of Blades msgs

I say keep the messages, they are quite helpful. I guess if the actual name instead of “%” was shown it would be more useful. Instead I suggest to “fix” the blade arena switch the choice to attack system back to random choice (but still allow to “see” who is in the blade) to allow lower level players a chance.

Topic: Shadowland Online / do formation bonuses really helps?

I would love to know this for I have been building certain formations for awhile now and notice very little bonus. But then again I also forget to watch :P.

Topic: Shadowland Online / News: SLO Server Maintenance Announcement on Apr. 11th 2013

Here is a solution to blades. Keep everything like you have it. Change only the “pick an opponent” to “random opponent” again. That will curb your alt abuse and let the low levels have a chance to play. Again; keep : ablity to see who in what, point award for attack not defend, hourly point award, end of time award. Change: ablity to pick foe to computer chose a random foe. There ya go, try that.

Good job. Nothing seems to be out of order so far!

Topic: Shadowland Online / Arena Announcement

Thanks for hearing us and being clear on what you are going to do with this announcment. I am not happy with the crazy adventure going away either, but from what it seems like to me this game must be hell to code ;D. I can rationally see it (CA) being rotated in and out (perhaps an array of seasonal minigames for that button spot) with other things but not completly removed. Seems a waste of a good thing. ;)

Topic: Shadowland Online / Resetting Honor!!!

Greetings. I am requesting that the developers please give us a full explanation of what they are going to do and how so we can be prepared and not complain after the fact. I do not see any reason for this, but if it is for the new system ther must be a way to compesate or tranfer the “work” done to reach the levels we have. I have personally “limboed” myself at 80 to obtain my status as welll as sold all of my unique itmes highly forted to aquire my diamonds. All this to earn the resonably obtainible bouns and try for the highest one. All I can say is if I get screwed, you lose me adn all I have talked into pl;aying this game. That’s right, I don’t use alternates, I get real people to play. I suggest you start talking to us, for if I wake up with my kingdom in chaos, I will just pack my bags and find another place to play.

Topic: Shadowland Online / Bug threads

Thanks for the reply. May I suggest that a more clear definition of what happens be placed “in game” to avoid this type of confusion? I know the menu says diamonds, but it also says that (cost diamonds) for sacutuary things and all other things that cash gift buys. Thanks!

Topic: Shadowland Online / Bug threads

Greetings. Are pictures cash gift or diamonds? I thought they are cash gift to purchase, and if so, does gifting a picture cost diamonds (which is kinda silly in my view)? I gifted one to my sugar, and bought myself one and I am out 30 diamonds. The gift is the one that ate diamonds I think. I went from 110 -50 (arena) = 60 – 30 (gift pic?) = 30 + 40 (areana defended and “tax” taken) = 70 (final total). Thanks!

I notice my main mage (fireball) seems to miss more often now as well.

Topic: Shadowland Online / Declaration of Anti-Robot Device

As I have thought a little more on this an in game auto thing for training, digging (uncontested capital hours) should be a good fix for 3rd party auto clickers. But these auto things can only be turned on if the game is open, so no logg off to wake up the next day with all lvs up. You have to keep the machine running so to speak. That is all most folks should need an auto for, and I purposely left out fortification becuase of its fluxuations. Chrisis1993’s suggestion of cooldowns is not a bad one either, I would certanly be glued to the screen on this game if cooldowns caped at 0 to 10 mins (that range becuase of santuary battle time and adverage of legion wait times). Or just flat out kick almost everyone from the game, for many have benifited from such practices, not for nefarious means mind you, to aid in the growth of their kingdoms and slay the beast of boredom. In the end, we are at the mercy of your wisdom and whims. ;)

Topic: Shadowland Online / Declaration of Anti-Robot Device

i agree with an auto-accumulation for capital. I sat through the hour twice in the year i have been playing manualy. That was becuase i was working a grarbage sale and had nothing else to do. If the capital is uncontested, then why not an auto gathering? If the capital is contested (i.e. more than one alliance vieing for the cap) then all autos are off. there fore this spurrs competition for the cap.
As for training the extention of speed up and greater exp would be a good remedy. The thing is many of these activities are fine if the cool down factor is a few minuets. but when you get into the 30min to hours range, well you want to go do something else than watch a timer countdown. Thus many turn on the auto thing and go do some landry…or whatever.
The auction house and areana things i do not understand how folks use an auto to do anything for those, but those activites should be stopped if you are directly harming other folks. but training and digging for gold really and truly hurts no one. Sure it give a slight edge in time, but not anything that will immediatly hurt folks. If anything how about put in your own auto options? Therefore no worries what so ever and if a 3rd party bot is used, well there ya go. Nine million ways to die, choose one. ;)

Topic: Shadowland Online / [Fixed] Word filter needed a repair (badly)

Thanks for fixing the word Christ developers, I do appricate it. And as far as being a zealot, I do not understand your remark Mr. gbaz. That title would be for the appeasement of the closed “open” minded hypersensitive folks, would it not? :P

Topic: Shadowland Online / [Fixed] Word filter needed a repair (badly)

WHy is the word Christ (in all forms that I treid…like christmas) censored? Are you serious? Look I am not a bible thumper, but I do take offense that you find Christ to be in the same catagory as shit or fuck but not Mohammad or Budda or any other deiety that I typed in. Fix that quickly please, for that will be a deal breaker for me. Besides, what are you going to call the Christmas event? XXXXXXmas event?

Or increase the bouns of the turkey gifts by 10% during promo and 5% after (thus 20 and 15) to make them more attractive. Make it worht the diamonds, but not take a gift. There are nine million ways to do anything…or at least two.

Topic: Shadowland Online / News: SLO Server Maintenance Announcement on Nov. 15th 2012

I request that the developers reconsider this action if it is offical. Lots of us earned them by forgoing our usual play methods, and plan to use them to our best benifit. If you wish to use such tactic (I shall call this a bait and switch) then you lose crediblity with your players. If such actions are to be done, then please have a full report on what bouns and extra do and how long and such so that we (the players) are well informed of the intentions so we may take full advantage of your gifts, preferably the day of announcemnet. But to gift and take away ( i am supposing this is to make the turkey day “sale” more lucritive) that is kinda slapping your fans in the face. By no means am I asking for a hand out, but to retain what I earned….jezz am I talking to the IRS? ha ha. Thanks and I hope you listen to you base, for with out us you shall have no face.

Topic: Shadowland Online / Bug threads

Update to the “reset cooldown bug”****. I have been told (and it works) if i refresh the page before I use any attack cooldowns after “midnight reset” it will reset the cooldown times accordingly. For example, if i am at 30 min cool downs for attack and have one left at 11:59, and after 12:00 I use that cooldown it will count me down anywhere between 10 mins to 10 secs (seemingly random, and based on if i allow more than one cooldown to fil). BUt to circumvent all of this if i simply refresh the page at “12:00 reset” before useing any cooldown (even at 30 min+) after midnight then said cooldowns reset as normal. If I do use any after midnight while still showing cooldowns used, it will tkae a while to “catch up” to normal “reseted cooldown” times. I took no pictures for quite frankly it would be an entire album. I hope this has been detailed enough for you, let me know if you need more information. I still have not tested mines, or regional fields/ mines yet. Wow, this paragraph has a lot of resets…;) Thanks!

No, of course I think of it after I click away. I’ll try to get some photos next time I run into one. And thank you for keeping on top of the forum!

I also ran into a hicup when i was doing village, I hit the next character icon as soon as win went up. This greyed the character making it unable to use, while no enemy came forward. I was able to chose another, and continue on, but i lost so did not ride it to the end.
Also the attack cool down after reset did not reset after I refreshed the page. In the 7 min range as of doing 5 battles. Something like this happend before, but after returning hours later it fixed itself on the cool down.
Man, I seem to be running into a lot of bugs latley!

Topic: Shadowland Online / Bug threads

Correct. I had it on 4/5 before and after reset it was still 4/5. I forgot to test it on farm today, maybe even mines as well when I remember.

Topic: Shadowland Online / Bug threads

I noticed that if I farm the capital farm right before reset and the timer is still going, the capital farm will not reset but keep it to whatever the number of times i had farmed it previously. I assume this may be true for the capital gold mine as well. Refreshing the game did not fix it either. Hope that helps!
rothus server by the way.
