EXP - Experience points, an player earns them by killing off monsters and such.

Special Events - Every online game that I can think of has them. Normally they're done for things like Christmas, Halloween, and other Holidays.

Class - All players start out a a Novice, Citizen or Newbie. They can then advance to particular "job" classes. Like, they can become a swordsman or a mage, then they can advance one more level. (It takes a lot of time to advance to any level.)

Monster Ban - In this particular game some monsters should not be killed, and if they are the player is fined for it with GP.
