Gaming: Ragnarok Stat Reset Announcement

I was surprised when a couple of players buzzed me through YM and asked me about a Stat Reset promotion. Apparently there’s an in-game announcement running saying that you can get a stat reset by going to the official Ragnarok website. I checked with the GM Team and it turns out that they weren’t able to fully put the complete announcement on the system. There’s actually 1 way to get a Stat Reset, and that’s through the Level-up HONOR ROLL PROGRAM. This is definitely a good move because I’ve always believed that in order to grow the business, we need to change the perception that online gaming is all addiction and negative. This is one of the reasons why I’m going to show more interviews with successful gamers like Cohen. People tend to forget the social relationships and values that gamers learn while they are online. In other words - gaming, in moderation, is actually good for you. Anything in excess, is definitely bad.

This is taken directly from the Level-up Honor Roll announcement:

CATEGORIES

LU Academic Achievers

1. Applicants must choose only one (1) subject.
2. For elementary/high school students the following subjects will be considered:
- Math
- Science
- English
- Filipino
- Social Studies
3. For college students only subjects that are closely related to their course will be considered. Example:
Course: BS Computer Application
4. Subjects qualified: System Analysis and Design, Data Communications etc.
5. Only one (1) major subject per quarter, trimester or semester can be applied for the promo.
6. Qualified applicants who got at least a grade point average (GPA) of 86-88% for elementary/high school students and 2.00 for college students will be given an award.
7. One (1) week after the release of grades the applicant must send a copy of their report card/class card for that grading period, showing the grade in the subject they applied for. This should also include the name, email address and phone number of the teacher/professor of the subject.

LU Honor Guard

1. The Honor Guard is an elite group of gamers who reached an over-all GPA or general average of at least 86% for elementary/high school students and 2.00 for college students for all their subjects at the end of the school year.
2. For college students to qualify, a copy of their course curriculum is required. Only students with five (5) or more subjects for the term may apply.
3. A copy of the final report card/class cards/transcript showing the GPA or general average should be emailed or faxed one (1) week after its release. Applicants for the Honor Guard category are also required to include the contact name, email and phone number of their class advisor. If the applicant does not have a class advisor, kindly provide the contact details of your school or university registrar’s office.

LU MVP (Most Valuable Pupils)

1. The LU Most Valuable Pupils are the very best among all Level Up! student gamers who practice responsible gaming.
2. The LU Honor Guard student with the highest general average or GPA in his/her educational category (elementary, high school or college) will be recognized as the MVP and will receive special in game items.

The LU MVP will get the following Ragnarok prizes:
- STAT RESET
- +10 Chinese Crown
- 100,000 Rok Points

Don’t worry guys I’ll have the announcement fixed. Sorry about the confusion on that one.

  1. yah.. i was shocked when my guildmate asked me “kelan ung stat reset?”..


  2. Wee, mag aral kayong Mabuti ha gg


  3. Does an MBA degree count? I could start going back to school. gg


  4. pano naman ung mga hndi na estudyante? wala bang ibang game?


  5. Nice promo, pero pano naman yung mga nakatapos na or already working?


  6. Sir Wauks pwede po b report card ko last skul yr? pasukan plng kc e..


  7. anu nga pla prize ng LU academic whatever?


  8. omg omg omg


  9. waaa lugi tapos na ako sa school waaaaaa T_T pwede ba umulit mag school na lang hehehe


  10. ^^ ehehehe, mukhang imposible ma reset ung stats ko ahh… galingan nyu ah…


  11. DUUUUUUUUUUH? anu po yun? @@

    nahihilo pa ako sa dating grades ku sa AMA, CKS, sob

    swerte na sobra kung mka 82 sa network heh heh


  12. ang hirap nmn ng stat reset… waaaaah sob2

    mdyo mhirap i-maintain grades e, lalo na kng pamatay course mo. swt

    paps wauks, ds is a bit OT but…

    There’s sumthing wrong with the servers…or is it freya only? not sure.

    I can’t seem to be able to connect. The error msg ‘Can’t connect to file server’ appears. Any ideas what’s wrong?

    We’ll be waiting for a reply. Thanks dude.


  13. But another problem arises…. Our professors only think that it is useless and won’t cooperate. They might even say that if they will agree what would be profitable in the trade (since we’re Accounting students).

    Kung copy lang ng grade per semester at yung course curriculum, ok na sana kaya lang with teachers consent medyo mahihirapan kumuha.


  14. ^
    yup, at hindi rin lahat ng profs ay approachable. maybe they think it will waste their time.

    OT:
    @WAUKS
    boss, 1st RB now pati in-game sira na. aw aw aw, what’s happening??? i can’t even connect in-game.


  15. how about those who are already graduates and working? We think we also deserve to have a chance in that stat reset. I have a suggestion to make. What about our Transcript of Records (ToR) validated by our school registrar? It could be a good alternative for those who are already college degree holder like me.


  16. pano nmn ung hindi na student tpos lagi 2months load ng account??? omg omg omg


  17. Yeah it was one of those what the f*** moments I got when I saw that announcement…

    [IMG]http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h223/yralyn/Screenshots/screenThor015.jpg[/IMG]

    If there was anything I’d hit on in the Honor Roll program, it would be the Chinese Crown (I hardly use the RoK points and I don’t need a stat reset).


  18. Oops, wrong format on the link.


  19. 1.00 ung highest nklgay sa website.. e panu yan 4 ung highest sa lasalle hahaha pabagsak nlng ako pra maka1? gg


  20. @@2 @@2 @@2 hm…. ^^ maging mabuting magaaral.. :D


  21. Lol @ Joel, I think ibig sabihin ng LU eh top notcher ka dapat ng school mo… di naman siguro sila ganun ka n00b na mag papa-top ng bagsak diba? heh

    Anyway, this is actually OLD news, I’ve read this over a dozen times in ragnarok.ph (when I’m bored or have to check something in the site). It actually is kinda wierd that only a few people even knew about this…

    It was just a wtf moment when that incomplete announcement was given out. Not the Honor Roll thing.


  22. sana nabibili nlng prng Neuralizer
    go go go


  23. Too bad, if this was actually implemented earlier… muha


  24. sob kailangan pa ba ng grades ek ek, is there any other way, kahit PHP na lng… kahit around 1K papatusin namin yan…
    sana PHP na lng.. huwaaaa…
    dapat beginning move nio na toh para maging FREE2PLAY na din po ragna… sa ROSE free2play na po, kailan kaya sa ragnarok… dapat isa sa mga itemz niyo na lng ang stat reset,

    Tpos tignan mo imbis na gumawa ka nang bagong character irereset mo nlng ung old busted char build mo and you have a new one…… my point in here edi lugi sila jan kc bago ka mag ka lvl 99 job 70 na 3rd job it will cost you almost 3+months load using 3rd party programs sa PK server plng yan ha………. ehhh panu pa pag sa other servers like tyr baldur freya en thor????? bad for marketing dba ^^, mas kokonti customers nila

    yan naman ehhh comment ko lng

    any corrections, suggestions and ofcourse violent reactions are welcome

    heh


  26. ANO BA NAMAN ITO WALA MAN LANG BANG NPC NA GAGAWIN PARA SA RESET STATS..EH MATAGAL NKO GRADUATE SA COLLEGE NAMAN PANO NAMAN KAMI…KAHIT SANA SAME NUNG SA RESET SKILLS NPC MAY BAYAD OK NA YUN…MAG 2 YEARS KO NA WAIT YUNG RESET STATS NA YUN WALA MANLANG KAHIT MINSAN..HAYSSS..


  27. sob2 sana pwd p sumali ung mga grad n heheh khit isubmit ko transcript ko wauks hehehe sayang ung price hehehe


  28. @WAUKS

    Dude sira na naman maps ng Freya. Sira na naman comodo, etc…
    Bakit ba tuwing siege nalang nasisira? Wala na ba talaga magagawa about this?

    Di naman ganyan nung bago mag merge. Di nyo nalang sana merge kung di ninyo kaya i-maintain. Anong silbi ng merge kung mas naging basura pa ang servers?

    pif


  29. Tapos sabay down din ang ragnaboards?

    Bakit? Ayaw nyo na makarinig ng complaints mula sa mga players nyo?

    Expected nyo na masisiraan na naman ng mga mapa at down na naman mga zones kaya down nyo narin muna yung outlet ng mga players na sobrang frustrated na sa serbisyong bigay nyo?!?

    WTF!


  30. nakakahiya naman sumali jan kasi malamng d expected ng dean namin n naglalaro ako ng PRO sayang naman ang GPA kong 1.53 sob


  31. OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH TAE OH SHEEEET magaaral ako mabuti waaa 100k amp rok POints ROK on


  32. @Chardy

    We’ve isolated the problem already with Freya, it should be fixed during the next maintenance. As for the ragnaboards it’s down because of technical reasons. The IT team is fixing it right now so it can go up at the soonest time possible. gawi


  33. @ Wauks:

    I have a suggestion, Bakit hindi lagyan ng stat reset katulad nung skill reset dati? mga 1 week lang din (same price as the skill reset). with that pwedeng tumaas economy ng fenrir dahil mababawasan yung mga zenny ng mga mayayaman na duper.


  34. Erratum #30

    TYR pala not fenrir. and also the other server. Sorry.


  35. Sana may baguhin ng kaunti sa rules na hindi naman talaga kailangan ng full participation ng professors and maybe deans ng college. SA mga kapatid ko, ok sa kanila kasi pag start ng klase kakakusapin rin nila yung mga teachers nila..

    Buti pa sila medyo ok na, yung isa kong kapatid kakayanin nya yung Chinese Crown and etc. na prize… sob


  36. nice move po good work maganda to magkaka laman utak mo at hindi lang puro trashtalk heh


  37. @ People requesting a pRO-wide stat reset:

    Kung i-allow ng LUG ang stat reset for all, tayo na ang pinakamababang official server sa buong mundo. Most other RO’s don’t have an iota of respect for us. Ang tawag nga sa atin private server RO (pRO). We have everything EXP bonus, Hypermart, allowed botting. Kung yung iRO nga twice a year lang sila mag EXP mod, tayo kailangan ata buwan buwan. Masyado tayong spoiled ng LUG.

    Sana unique lang itong stat reset to this event.

    @people expecting Free RO:

    Check nyo ang free-to-play Server ng TwRO (Taiwan). See if you like what a free-to-play RO is like.


  38. wauks may x2 ba bukas?


  39. I’d love to join. But i’m sure a lot of people will think it’s lame/waste of time/totoy to still play RO. I can honestly say that I get at least 96-99 in Math. This is high school math, though. 99 is the ceiling grade, btw. Sayang.


  40. /gg int typ pa nmn ako irl


  41. Mukhang mga high school at elementary students mkakapaghapit jan.hehehe. Mga college students like me eh mukhang mahihirapan pa na mag-MVP. Lalu na im from UPLB at chem eng ang kors.wehehe… Eh wala pa nga ever sa history ng kors namin ang naging suma cum laude sa hirap.hehehe. Galingan mga bata! Aral mabuti! no1


  42. clarification lang po…

    corect me if i am wrong, but the way i understand the pomo yong MVP malaman after the school year pa? that means 1 year after pa ang stat reset if ever maging MVP ung bata?

    if ganon gawa na lang me bago character, hindi naman siguro aabot 1 year level 99 na. gg


  43. Hindi kasali MA? sob2


  44. Yay good job level up… Makapagaral na nga ng mabuti hehehe… Nakakabwisit dn naman kc pag sa school kunwari sabihin mu gamer ka ampanget ng tingin sau ng mga tao (lalo na mga teachers!!)… It’s time to show them that gaming isn’t just about addiction!!!!!


  45. continuation….

    Mas maganda pag pinaghihirapan hindi yung lahat dinadaan sa PHP… Isipin nyo ang pera hindi pinupulot lang… Agree ako sa event na to at least maraming sisipaging mag-aral….


  46. go go go ok dn un, pero mgnda kng php eh ung nde ganun kamahalan, actually i prefer p ung dati 1m per level eh no1 no1 ung hypnotist?


  47. sana lagyan din ng award un mga nagtatrabaho na… :D gawi


  48. aus yan ah.. hehe


  49. akala ko maibabalik ko na sa pagiging magnus type ang support priest ko heh


  50. hehe baka pde ung grades last 4 years ago and 6 years ago haha

    para fair sa graduates and working na.

    @ Wauks

    hope the dupped problem would be resolved as soon as possible.


  51. They offered Sunnies [1] before…


  52. e pno po mga mhina utak 2lad ko,,? sob2


  53. panu ung graduate na? wla na kami chance? pag ng-anak ba tapos honor ung anak valid ba un? hmm


  54. ehhh paano naman po ako? License Engineer? hahah sana meron din ako nyan!


  55. @WAUKS

    Ok. Nice to hear you already isolated the problems. Sorry at highblood ako kahapon. Hehehe. Kasi parang walang improvement e. Nagwo-worsen pa.

    gawi


  56. kailangan ko mag-aral at mapunta sa dean’s list wahahah go go


  57. aw, mahirap maka kuwa ng dos ah :lol: 1 subject lang ba yan? basta dos yung grade ayus na /?


  58. Flat 1.0 was my grade for a major subject last 3 years ago.. gg Meaning graduate na po ako. SO panu naman kame na out of school na?? WALA NA BA KAMENG CHANCE FOR THAT STAT RESET?? Pro Players din naman po kame.. gawi


  59. What about events like, how Ragnarok Online affected you as an individual? or something like that, para lahat pwede.

    muha

    oh bloody heck.

    i wish i was a student. i shall respectuflly register my whining along with kiko matsing.

    heh


  61. At least that’s the bonus us students can have for not having an income yet being able to play online games. Buti nga may ganyan para sa students eh. Other gaming companies would NEVER DARE such a thing.


  62. daya naman. pano naman kami mga graduate na at medyo gumagawa ng maganda sa mga field na pinili namin? and student mag aaral lang. kami may responsibility na sa company at sa family at the same time active pa din sa RO. tinatakam lang kami sob


  63. Di ako mananalo dito kahit ano pa man mangyari! sob2


  64. “fatman

    Does an MBA degree count? I could start going back to school”

    yep yep sana po kasama MBA at doctorate gawi

    sana lang po! aheheh napaghahalata mga adiktuz ahahahaha mba na e gusto pa prizes. sabagay mahirap MBA e4

    thanks for this program it might the way na magaral lalo mga kiddies and teenagers … feeling o tuloy tumatanda na ako ha heh

    @wauks

    paresign na ako wala ba malilipatan dyan sa lvlup hahahaha heh

    IT po ako… deans lister and certified ragnarok adik. e4 tapos no interview sabi ko

    I am a 99 hunter in Freya server,,, I love to tambay in prontera and drink apple juices while fighting baphomet hahaha… antok an siguro ako …. :…:


  65. What if kung may trabaho ka, tapus lets say you’re a sales rep. Di ba pwede na eligible ka sa prize kung consistently ka nakaka-hit ng sales quota mo? Or athlete ka tapus nanalo ka ng medal sa mga national tournaments. Siguro mas maganda if you reward the people excell in, not only in studies.

    Also, what if you are a student and you are studying in a top 10 school sa Pinas? I think you can agree that an equivalent of 88% from those schools is harder to achieve than an 88% from other less renowned schools.


  66. I’m seriously thinking of having a program for working peeps but I don’t know what the measure will be. Are you guys okay with asking your HR dep to endorse your good performance to LU for free in-game items? heh

    I’ll set a meeting with the people in charge of this program so we can think of something for the yuppies.


  67. waaaaaaa… wala para sa mga working… iwan ko kung paanu na naman nila gagawin yan… ggrrr… frustrated na ako sa LUG… load ko nga na 350 na niload ko before merge kahit simpleng game time transfer di magawa… na ubos nalang…. gggggggggggrrrr!!!!


  68. Bro waukeen ung MVP lang po ba may prize q

    hmm


  69. ask ko lang po kung pwede pa sumali sa honor roll… ^^


  70. Sir Wauks, di naman po nagrereply sa mail ung honor roll committee e. Malay ba namin kung nakuha nila ung mga required documents. Walang kahit anung confirmation email, parang katulad lng ng dating honor roll. Tagal tagal nakapost ung link sa ragna site, e stagnant naman ung system. Tapos ngeun papalitan nga nila pero d man lang makareply. -.-
