MMORPGs in private servers

MMORPG private servers are basically servers that do not have any affiliations (connections) to the official server of the MMORPG. Most of today’s private servers are free-to-play and they may offer significantly higher rates of leveling.

For example: killing a monster in an MMORPG may give you one level, but in a private server, the owner may set it so that for every monster you kill, you gain twenty levels.

The usage of emulators is currently the most common method used to host private servers. The software of an emulator is written by analyzing the network traffic of how the game client connects to the host server. However using emulators may cause glitches of limited functionality as the original MMORPG may not be emulated completely.

Many of the private servers that exist violate copyright laws and some of the popular ones have been forced to shut down by the authorities. For example the private server of Lineage II: l2extreme was found guilty of using official server software and leaked server codes. l2extreme was later shut down by the FBI.

The server is up and running but we are still trying to create a nice balance in regards to the economy, this is where you guys come in. To achieve a working and steady economy within the server we need to build a strong community, with your help we may achieve this goal.
