HerculesWS

Today marks the day we say goodbye to Ind.      It's been a pleasure working with Ind for several years. He has been a great asset to Hercules and the Ragnarok Community over the years. For now, we bid a good farewell to an awesome developer of the ... [More] Ragnarok Community. Ind will be leaving the RO scene for personal reasons, but may come back in the future. Although Ind is leaving Hercules, Hercules will not die. Hercules will now be lead by Haru and I. Myself and the rest of the staff would like to thank Ind for all of his hard work and dedication throughout the RO emulator projects!     ​With this change in mind, there had to be a domain change (herc.ws). The old domain (hercules.ws) will still be available for the time being, but we recommend using herc.ws and changing all your bookmarks. We believe herc.ws was the best way to go for a domain change... pretty much 'cause all other domains were taken, or were too long then what we wanted (i.e. hercules-emu.org). [Less]
