Before updates: Entering ladder slasher, no groups up, start soloing.. even high drops in solo at that time, and high sidedrops on the well which allowed u to well t1's u found along the way

Now: Logging into ladder slasher, no good groups, play track mania lol.

if you no longer have buyers/sellers.. the statis of the market will not change.  people will just horde or delete..

another thing .. isnt it sad that there were actually MORE players when the game was the "lame" text game than now after all the SUPER updates that are supposed to make the game into something better and more interesting??

we still have people playing the NES (original) in this country.. perhaps once you have something good.. you shouldnt mess with it much OR allow for older versions to be played still ..


people thought playing LS was the key to a trusted tag (or one of the definite purposes to get noticed by the staff) and that LS is the ticket to mass fg...

With the air being deflated its no surprise the population is diminishing... I think the updates matter little, as always people will quit games and move on, but as long as the incoming traffic remains high the games health is fine. Once that stops, its lights out

Unfortunately, the last kick in the balls to the old school players is happening right under our noses with a devaluation of items from increased drop rates and a flooding of the market. This Needs to be reversed!


K, elitist

I ve tried to be very acceptable to all the updates made. Bout the 2 years ago Ive suffered life steal nerf ( some of my items really lost value then ); I was really mad at the beginning ( 'a hurt of a donor'!!; 'cannot be') that were my first thoughts.  Well Paul said that its his game and he will make  anything what he wants with the game. OK ive accepted that and tried to be ellastic as much as i could in my age. With every update i have been able to find a shelter for me, still enjoying the simplicity and strange attract of this game. Have been very optimistic with the last update even though i was dedicated solo player. But for now theres no ability to play; i cant set catas even within guild cos I have not the large amounts of time to play; ok even if sometimes I have time I cant spend all 2-3h focused on catas cos of children...; wife... other disturbances....

OK someone say u can cata solo!; OK plz dont be funny solo in that shape do not exist.

My biggest regret is that the chance to sit;  turn on pc; enter d2jsp; enter ls; start playin; relaxing; enjoying LADDER SLASHER has been taken away



PS Sorry for some grammar takedowns


I agree, with Fading I came to love this game and stuck with it through all the updates. I was able to wake up read some news grab some coffee and do 1-20 or something like that. Then do a 20-55 and then at night do the most enjoyable part 55-mq. Then if I wanted I could hammer out a 2-3 hours cata group on top of that.

All of the items I gathered through the years, all of my profs the feel kinda in vain right now because the added bonus I had from them used to shine in Arena, now in catacombs it barely makes a big difference.

But at the end of the day, we started playing someone else's game that made a game how he wanted the game to be... Ah well all things come to an end anyway :)

Waiting for the 2nd part of this big LS overhaul, to make up my mind what to do :)

It's only going to end for you if you stop playing.  That is ultimately your choice.


Of course it is, I wasn't really thinking about anyone else then myself :)

I also have not had a big issue finding groups. People who know me know I can at least carry my own weight and contribute to the group. If no one is on in range of my main climber, I look around at fellow friends and guild mates and try to get organized. If that does not work, I switch to another character, something not everyone is comfortable doing, but for me it is still just as fun.

You should know I'm just messing around with you... :hug:


I know, but not everyone may realize that, just didn't want to start any drama. :hug:

K, elitist


I see ppl throwing the word "elitist" around and I have been finally called one. As to better have a rebuttal since it seems to have a negative connotation, I looked it up:

Quote (dictionary.com)
elitism (ɪˈliːtɪzəm, eɪ-)

— n
1. a. the belief that society should be governed by a select group of gifted and highly educated individuals
b. such government
2. pride in or awareness of being one of an elite group

e'litist
— adj , — n


Well, looks like I'm guilty as charged by the defintions provided above. I do believe the educated and intellectually gifted in terms of Ladder Slasher should help on this site and I am honored for someone to consider me as a member of that group.
Realize that from this point forward that when calling me an "Elitist", I take it as a compliment.

Quote (Stok3d @ Jun 10 2010 12:26am)

Ezekial 25:16 "The path of the LS man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of Slashing & Helping, shepherds the noobs through the valleys of Catacombs for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of godly drops. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger, those who attempt without glyph a Mirror Maze. And you will know my name is Stok3d, when I cast my Megacrit upon thee..."



@FatZero: Thnx bro for the kind remark.

I must say that I also miss the old arena, and also the old well of evil.

agree with this 100% ..

For the first time i have to admit that slowly my interest for ladder slasher is coming to an end :( would not have believed that was possible.

Really hope a new update does something to make the game more interesting or I fair my days slashing are numbered.
