New Web-Based RPG (in Off-topic)

I have been designing and creating a web-based RPG for some time now, and it has finally reached a point where I would like to expand the game community.
I can't offer $CB2 (I'm broke) for new signups, but since I created the game I can offer bonus money in the game if you use the CB2 referral code.
Just visit
jArena and when you sign up, use the referral code 'cb2' to start with 1000 instead of 100 bucks.
Game features:
- Turn-based battle system puts you in control of every fight
- Customized magic system lets you create your own spells
- Add special effects to your weapons and armor for extra power
- Buy and sell your items with other players at the trading post
- Compare your progress with the community on the top score list
- Free to play, $8 registration eliminates banner ads and unlocks bonus features
- Quests, awards, forums and more!
Try it out, all my friends say it's a great way to regenerate BA and I agree. =)

There seems to be something wrong. Everytime I try to do something I get an error and must wait 10 min to log in again. I found a loophole, I guess, by changing my password and logging in again to not wait 10 min, but after trying to go to the bar I got the error message again.

Sometimes you do not get an option to continue, so you ahve to log out and reenter the site.

YAAAY
Thank you guys!!!! I am trying to solve this problem already and your input helps.

Thanks!!!!
Solution has been found. You will have to wait for the banners to load or timeout for the menu to appear. I am working on coding a workaround that makes the banners load seperately so that this doesn't happen anymore.

There are so many bugs I cannot begin to mention them. There isn't an option to leave the arena once you enter it. I learned a spell and it isn't used in battle. The navigation between just about everything option does not work it keeps taking me to the arena.

Yeah, no offence I know what its like to make a game online, but really wait a bit longer before showing this site to others, you only need others to play it when you run out of ideas or need play testing, the bug testing you need to do and for a while.... can be found just by you trying to play it...
Glory, i think after i went into equip all my items on my char the spell was "equipped"...lol, cuz i finally got to kill that homeless guy(Using a dagger, since i had no MP and couldnt use my cold spell)...>.<....heh. And i got "Pray" as well as my Frozen. But i cannot use my Spell cuz i have no MP, how do we get MP?

Once you enter a fight, you are locked in until you win or lose.

can you remove the ability to attack yourself

You shouldn't be able to learn a spell that requires greater MP than you have or can have for a long time in my view.

You are supposed to be able to do some really stupid things. These include attacking yourself, learning an ultra-expensive spell, healing the enemy, going to a town you can't afford to visit, and so forth.
THIS GAME IS HARD!!!! I hate easy games. If you need help I provided lots of documentation, so read it!
yea now i cant use my dagger or my spell, i have 1 MP but i cant even use my dagger when i goto attack, he just punches, and misses everytime.
Ok, so i went to remove all equipment, and it says remove what equipment? Well theres nothing there to remove but i had a cloak or whatever and a hat and dagger.

information -> inventory -> wear equipment...
yes what ^ said, you have to make sure your wearing your stuff, the inventory and money mangement system could use an overhaul.

Thank you for the input, Adrian Exodus. Any suggestions on specific interface improvements would be greatly appreciated (go ahead and post them to the Suggestions forum in jArena).
Any input is helpful! Thanks for playing my game, guys!!!
Umm, as i said before i had my stuff equipped, how else could i beat someone, since fists never hit. I had my mage hat, the robe and dagger all equipped, then i just signed on again, and it was all gone, when i attacked it went back to fists and no spell or pray.
So i "did" have it equipped until i logged back in...lol, I'm just wondering how to get it back since i have no more money.
Why does my session expire every minute, forcing me to log back in?... only to get a message that i have to wait 10 minutes.

That's because I'm downing and upping the system to fix bugs as I find them.

Sorry, I did manage to break a couple of accounts in the process.
Smallpaul, what's your jArena username? I'll credit you.

Known Bug -- but you can upload your own images. I just don't have the Gladiator picture yet.

Please send future posts to the jArena "Ask Admin" forum instead of here, no point in wasting Jon's bandwidth when you can waste mine.
