I played SR a long time ago and went back to play again recently. I tried to start the game and it said all the servers were full, I couldn't connect to any server!?! I tried this for several times a day for almost a week, still couldn't play!!

I found out from the forums that all the servers are full of bots, constantly, making it almost impossible to connect.

So 7 million bots are enjoying the game now, what a shame.

this game would actually be enjoyable if it wasn't for those bots...or that many bots anyway ...but they don't seem to realise that

Ya this game was actually semi-interesting although I stopped after seeing tons of bots and the grind was just impossible.

Everyone pretty much said what I was going to say...it really is a shame though, I started playing like three years ago or so, and back then there weren't  too many bots, a few here and there, but they cleaned them up. Now, if you go to Jang'an the only people hunting around there are bots. So sad, and yet I still continue to try and play since it has captivated me more than any other MMORPG for one reason or another.

Seems to be a huge problem in many of the f2p games, the prevalance of bots and most of the publishers have no where near the staff to even attempt to control them. 

This is one of those, not a bad game, but AVOID THIS GAME AT ALL COSTS because the vast majority of accounts are strictly bots.

So I'm not alone!

I loved this game when I first played it, great graphics and lots of fun. I'm just sad I can't even log-in anymore.

Now i'm just endlessly roaming the internet looking for something comparable.

Such is life...
