Elmoreden is a new project we build into the Lineage II private server world. Our goal is to provide a nice and relaxing place for having fun. The team behind is experienced with various succesful servers currently active. We do not target to make a money making machine neither collapse after a couple of months. We are here to stay and we know how. Server started open beta testing today, August 1st 2011 and will go live by September. We know that one month is a lot of time, but there are many things to do, and most of all, listen to our players. Our forums are open for you to join anytime and speak your opinion and be sure, we will listen carefuly and consider your wills. Even if you have nothing to add for now, just register so we can anytime update you for the progress of our server.

I can't post link, please a mod contact me.

how come ? i heard its impossible on L2OFF servers

It is possible on GF OFF files..

Auto learn skills is possible since ever. There is an option in the skill learn list script, which is like auto_learn = true. With notepad and replace function you can just make those who have 0 requirements (other than SP), auto-learn.

Auto pick up was not possible since recently when the development team, implemented it. Still, both are for beta only.

Server has been updated:
[*]Implemented New Item Protection System (Anti Steal System). It is disabled for now and will be enabled in Live. This system protects your character by a secondary password, to trade, drop or destroy items. Very useful when you have to manage shared accounts.
[*]Implemented Player Command: .delevel which will remain disabled for now and will be enabled by a player poll since some players may abuse it on shared account. As an alternative we have .expon .expoff which is safer.
[*]Fixed Private Store Exploting that Allowed Players to Input Fake Items Leading to Scamming.
[*]Included new Territory Wars Chat Type ‘^’.

Introducing soulshots and spiritshots for sale (beta only):
NPC: Helvetia
Place: Grocery Store
Town: Giran

Now our forum is supporting TapaTalk!

But nobody has an idea about this forum or your website, all we see is needless lines of text showing nothing at all which can guide you to this actual server....

Any unique features to show that you are not just another weekend server?

And who said that the features you mentioned there were created by Elmoreden ? For sure not him. As for the last question, the "unique" features that a server has have no connection with server's longevity, seriously, just in case we raise the rates up to x1000 and add custom npc buffer / shop, in this case yes, bunch of low players will ensure server's survival. Time will say, be patient.

Look at gensofdestruction, that is a server that shows that it has an experienced and ambitious staff. This server atm, only shows that it is a weekend plug & play server.

I dont care what other servers have, we could also add bunch of custom features but guess what, we will not. We would like our server to be as close to retail as possible (although we are always up for suggestions). In my opinion, staff members should not be characterized by their power of imagination but the ability to cope with extreme problems, the ability to solve the bugs in shortest time possible and so on. I ensure you that we got a very experienced staff who knows what this game stands for and how does it work (mechanically speaking) and this server will not be "a weekend plug & play server" as you say. Actually, this would be one of the reasons we are working on this project, we are sick of seeing all these servers that have good files but bad administration and thanks to that, they fail in short time.

P.S. Please avoid advertising other servers in this topic in the near future.

So a server team proves its experience by runing the player's game experience?

And what would be the point of advertising these servers in our topic ? As I said, there are many servers with good files but bad administration that died or eventually, will die because of that. We can prove and we will prove that good files in good hands make miracles.
