More information?

As I've noticed this page is Protected. Apparently only authorized users can edit the page and add content to it, but there is little to nothing on this game in this entry.

What would be done about its expansion? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bleuren (talk • contribs) 06:39, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

I'm not sure why the article is indefinitely semi-protected. Per WP:PPOL, heavy and persistent vandalism could be the reason for doing that. Still, any editor may request unprotection at WP:RFPP. Or you can handle it informally with the protecting admin, MBisanz (talk). Matt Fitzpatrick (talk) 11:23, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

Rootkit

This game includes a spyware Rootkit. Maybe a section on that should be added to the wiki?

An excerpt from this article: "it’s even been known to accuse you of hacking if an open web page has a suspicious title. "

External Links for Linux users

Both the Korean and International sites for Silkroad Online currently block Linux users. If you're running Linux and need to verify references on either of these websites, adjust your user agent to make it appear you're running Windows. A User Agent Switcher plugin is available for Firefox, which is what I use. Matt Fitzpatrick (talk) 11:26, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

Another external link

Im not sure if you allow this or not, but I was searching for information on this game and found this article then I found a whole wiki that is only about silkroad online the game. http://silkroadwiki.com —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ferocia (talk • contribs) 21:38, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

An external link to an open wiki is great, if the wiki is stable and active. Video game articles often accumulate a large amount of gameplay details, so linking an open wiki with gameplay details and leaving just content of most interest to the general public is handy to keep the Wikipedia article a manageable size. Unfortunately, the site you've linked seems to be gone, so I'm guessing stable and active it isn't. :( Matt Fitzpatrick (talk) 20:30, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

Critiscm?

Where did that go, what was said is actually true, bots logging in and crowding up the servers, lack of gm support, etc. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.227.219.78 (talk) 10:42, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

I'll agree, Silkroad Online is well known for that. Its quite possible that the developers themselves have edited that out of the article.

Verifiability, not truth, is the standard. (Though boy, don't we know it's true!) We want to be able to find some independent reliable source making the botting claim, so the claim can't just get challenged, reverted, and fuel for an ugly editing war. Even if it's just something like a gamespot article listing several MMOs (including SRO) off-hand as examples of games with pervasive botting, that's good enough.

Weird

I remember there was an article about Silkroad Online on Wikipedia, where issues concerning this game were brought up. Things like that gold farming bots were rising problem also players using bots and inability of Joymax to deal with this problems. So I was suprised when I saw this article wich doesn't mentions issues and its very similar in style with silkroad main site.

Also recently (past year) there is a problem with conecting to servers unless player has premium "ticket". —Preceding unsigned comment added by Garryola (talk • contribs) 21:09, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

When is it going to be unlocked?

Hasn't it been locked for long enough? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.9.255.79 (talk) 18:50, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

Can you source this statement? — Deon^talk_{I'm BACK!} 10:00, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Estonian page

Edit request from 92.52.211.23, 12 May 2010

{{editsemiprotected}} Please change International version to 1.250

92.52.211.23 (talk) 06:29, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

 Done, but do you also have a source you can cite to replace the current citation? I'm assuming this is the latest version, but it looks like the reference web site that was cited is not supporting this version, nor any version. -- œ^™ 07:04, 12 May 2010 (UTC)
