It was like that in Bouguereau's painting http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:William-Adolphe_Bouguereau_%281825-1905%29_-_The_Wave_%281896%29.jpg , so I thought I would try it out.

I thought gate of the World was very cute... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=haxhWJ3gYZ8 oO but for some reason RO2 didn't think so, or didn't want it, or something.. The old GotW team is supposedly working on another MMORPG called Lime Odyssey.
