First off, thanks for the opportunity to get into Beta..

Secondly, Lineage II was an awful game. Its a PvE game wrapped with pretty PvP wrapping paper. Being in Closed beta and Open beta, I agree that keeping beta characters into retail is indeed an unfair advantage.

The biggest problem with L2 was in fact that they didn't care that exploits killed the item market. ALOT of very good items were dupped as well as adena. It virtually killed the market. The haves were gods and the have nots were left to struggle. The game was beautiful to look at and had NO support or substance. I really had high hopes for that game until EQII came out. Having played it for about 6 months, I must say that it still brings up bad memories. Anyways, that is ancient history. EQII is SOOOOO close to coming out that it doesn't matter any more. Hopefully I can get into beta to start trying things out.

Thanks again EQ2 Interface!!!
