Last week we talked about voice programs and their usefulness in the world of Lineage 2. By a HUGE margin, it was agreed that they are definately HOT!

This week it's all about... castle sieges. If you were able to jump online for a couple hours (or 20) this weekend, you noticed that there were a few scheduling errors regarding seiges on Bartz and Kain.

To further muddy the waters, HGM Spam issued the following advisory:
Important notice to all players! We have discovered that some of the locations near the castles are not considered as a siege area by the system at this time. Please note that using these locations to take advantage in the castle sieges is now considered as an exploit and a misuse of the game mechanics.

No players will be able to accidentally use this exploit; It can only be used with prior knowledge. Any castle won in this way will be forcibly removed of ownership and any account found participating will be permanently closed.

These rules are in place to keep the game play fair and are for the benefit of all players.
Consider yourself warned and spread the word.

So, what do you think about the castle siege system? Is it really working as intended? Tell us what you think. . is it HOT or NOT in the poll!
