After the Reset...

It took me a bloody long time to lvl from 29 -> 30.





-_-;;

We thought it was some sort of bug at first.

Then I found out why. When GM Kiki said that there'd be a new lvling system and that it'd be harder to lvl, it meant that at certain lvls, there'd be a whole lot more EXP required to get to the next lvl. Well, my screenshots *points above* explains it best.

The lvls that are supposed to be affected are by every 20 lvls: 9 -> 10, 29 -> 30, 49 -> 50, 69 -> 70.

I personally don't recall 9 -> 10 being that horrid, but then, it was right after the reset, and it was extremely laggy so it was a pain already.

Playing right after the reset... was terrible. You're lucky if you didn't. Oh, it was fun seeing familiar names (so many of them too!) and having people come up to you and going, "Hey, I was xxxx before the reset".

But the lag was horrendous due to the sheer amount of players. O_O

Check out how popular Birth Island's fairy was:

Yeah, that thing partly outlined is the fairy.

There were a lot of peeps just standing still. Were they just AFK1? Nooo, they were all frozen by that deadly lag. Look at us all stuck helplessly in Zant at the portal leading to Luxem Valley:

Anyone who ran over to go through the portal simply joined us in posing as statues. It was rather funny. But taking a few minutes to get to Luxem Valley wasn't. It should have taken mere seconds!

As a result of teh Mega Lag, you see a lot of people saying:
  1. i can't move!!!

  2. laaaaaagggyyy

  3. press alt+F4 to get rid of lag!

  4. fucking laggy
and the like.

I liked what this two said though ^^:

And yes, some jokers said that pressing alt+F4 will release you from the lag. In a way, it's true, since it'd cause the game to close itself.

As a parting shot, see a piece of hell I experienced:
