PlayBNS.com ?

I just had an email on my GMail account with information about PlayBNS.com. This redirects me to a site that's not really giving any information and is in Russian/English (choice). I'm wondering if anyone knows this site and it it's possibly from 4game/Innova?

If this is a pirated server site, my apologies up front since I don't support these kind of servers...

    I just got similar email and I'm looking for information on this too. Not comfortable on unknown sites that claim to have a game, when the games own site says nothing about open beta yet.

    Also didn't find any connection to PlayBnS on the games site.

    Judging by the wording on their website it is a copy of the official chinese servers. Possibly early beta ones, since the level cap is 45.

     

    So, yes, in simple terms it is a pirated server. On the flipside, it looks like a very well managed one! :P

    How about this little nugget about half way down the page....

     

    Fully implemented game world

    Game content is fully implemented for our current update. All quests, dungeons, skills, traits, bosses, fractions, guild etc are fully functional.

     

    It is a good thing they are thinking about continuing our education in mathematics as we play! :P

    I have played it, it is indeed a private/copy/pirated or whatever you want to call it, server.  I believe it is a CN beta client, or perhaps late Alpha version, however it is very well done and managed. 

    I had played the CN open beta a ways back but the ping was just too bad, even using a booster; just felt too far behind the Chinese players.  I think this particular server is in Germany or something like that, so the ping is much, much better; I know I had no, or very little, delay when doing anything, whereas the CN server would lag my skill activation, blocks, etc.

    So yeah it's not quite the real deal, no idea if they will really update, but it works very well.

    This is a private server. It is not authorized, run or approved of by NCSoft. If it were then NCSoft's name would be all over the website. It isn't.

    The website even says in small print at the bottom of their page that it is an emulator.

    Need I remind you that posting private servers on this website is not permitted?
