I am asking you what grade you would be giving to Poseidon server with an explanation. The best explanation wins 5M gold on Poseidon server.

I would give Poseidon a 8.
Why? There are bots, yes, but there is also a community from my country in the server, and I have grown up to like the server. Also, I have a nice going character here with a nice guild of 2 players LOL.
But overall, Poseidon is good, except for the traffic and bots. Items are good priced for me, easy to make money, average community, and some interesting PVP.

If I get enough contribution, I will be hosting a find-the-stall event with great prices!
The stall will have a reward for the finder.

What grade would you give to Poseidon?
ANYONE CAN PARTICIPATE!

EDIT: Added a poll!

E2:Reward gold will be passed when one grade`s votes reach 4 or total votes reach 9!

Hi!

Poseidon server is my first and last server in iSRO
I started playing this game in 2007 December
My friend asked me to join this game.
In the beginning there were only 2 of us
When we hit lvl 20 we made a legit guild LostHeroes
Now it is quit big guild (regarding rev6 17 active Estonian players) but not legit anymore ...
I dont care about bots and goldbots because i have bought prem since when i was lvl 20
It was possible to log on the servers in the beginning on 2008
Now i am lvl 79 wizard/cleric with 5 gap and 60k sp
I have many friends on the server and i have made PvP more often when i hit lvl 69.
You can find me now very often in Samarkand south
Personally i will give also grade 8, because here is still many english speaking players and we are in good english speaking union also
And the prices are also normal, because there is very few 10d sun drops and thats why 9d sun items are still valuable
MY IGN LaurenciusX
You can all PM me

TY for reply, hope to spot you in Samar south!

what is your IGN?
rev6 didnt find Gloryguard

Under lvl 20, currently farming SP @ Ongs

Huhu

Bleederi, nice try to resurrect this part of the forum, props for it to you

Poseidon is my first and only server i've played on, started same time as Lauri, in the end of november, 2007 Lau was my first union-leader lol

So we are kindof oldies

I've been thinking about what grade should i give to this server but i do not seem to be able to make up my mind... There are days when i would want to leave it because of the ignorant people all around, but there are days when i say i could not leave it ever

Overall i think i would give a 7 for Poseidon, because of the traffic (i do have premium since beginning, making traffic not to be an issue for me, but for others it is, and you can't neglect that)...

On the other hand i think the server has some huge problems with activity (not meaning the globals, but events)... i remember there was a guy organising a server-wide cape war (poor thing was globaling about it for hours) last summer and it failed miserably because of people were not interested. If i recall well, Infect even made a thread about it on SRF

Prices are relatively normal in my opinion, never had problems with gaining gold.

One thing what hits me hard is, and what is a big big negative thing about this server... maybe about other servers too, i have no info on that : finding lower lvl (5-6-7degree) equipment is HARD as hell. I remember when i was earching for 7-8d pimped gear for my very first warrior character, i could even be picky about it! I had 2-3 pages of Stall Network filled with heavy and light armor pimped and unpimped gear... Now... uhh I hardly find what i need.

I love this server anyways, and i got to meet some very nice legits in the last few months, and it keeps me going .

Sorry for the wall of text.

Lol Bump
Haven't as yet played Poseidon but and planning on it.
Right now i'd give Poseidon a grade of like, 1
Have been trying to connect for like 3days now its just not working, But ill keep at it and post my full grade once i've played a little

Siiiiiiiiiigh... Would be lie if i said traffic is better on other servers coz nowadays it is not better anywhere. Without premium i'd probably quit the game already.

Been waiting your message ingame since you pm-d here, so i kinda figured that you did not manage to connect

I keep my fingers crossed anyways, and hope you won't give up.

Good that´there are "oldies" still left!
BTW I lol``d at the bump... This section is so dead it does not require a bump in 5 years

But my opinion is all of iSRO is dead..... Too hard to login and all over it are the bots.
Poseidon is pretty average on that aspect, dead but no more dead than the other servers.
AND - there are absolutely no events and even less interest by the players for an event.
Nobody wants to do shit - just bot their way up.
Anbody who is not AFK, just thinks nobody will attend and prefers to not waste the 10K gold to teleport to Jangan.
Took a break because of those things. Maybe coming back by the L4+ Update.
Poseidon is still a 8 for me, when compared to other iSRO servers.

But nice to see your replys, thanks for them!

Poseidon was my first server, it was fun until suns came in 9d >_>

what was your IGN name in Poseidon when you played?

It was Gloryguard.
I liked playing until login became too hard.
I sometimes pop by and check how is it, checked out the new autologin too.

Poseidon > every server
I was in the guild Weiwuer before everyone went inactive or left.
We were with DarkDivision, Envy, and lots of others.
ign: DivineEvil and Demon_Seraph

Edit: Now that it's easier to login I might reinstall isro and see how everyone's doing.

Hope to see you all players ingame, and nice this topic got so much attention, I thought I was the only Poseidon player in SRF..
At least some people have tried Poseidon, I am glad Also nice reading your experiences there.
And I think of coming back, the new autologin lowers the login stress by alot.
I mean it might take long, but at least you do not have to type codes and ids etc. all the time.

The autologin was great, I got in like thrice. (is that how you say 3x?)

i am back from my vacation
so you can all PM me again
