That interview with defazio was pretty uninformative. "What causes lag? I have no idea unless i worked for nexon"

It was a bunch of things from my understanding

*Guild
*Group of people
*Forum
*Private server

I don't think i have heard that name before either though.

I appreciate the feedback. He did lay out several possibilities and discussed the workings of servers and code in a simple enough way for the average layman.

If any of you guys have any suggestions for potential interviews or topics please post them here. We plan to have many more articles next month.

Yeah the comment was pretty one sided. The first few question(s) he answered was pretty interesting. I don't think Nexon rents out their servers, there's no way they could have the level of control they require with an out of house set up.

Well if Nexon would return my e-mails then maybe we could get down to the bottom of it...:cool:

Thanks for participating! I was glad to get your story out there. Yeah - everyone is pretty busy - which is why Maple Monthly is great because Maple News can deliver high-quality articles on a monthly basis.

For anyone interested in possibly writing for the site and concerned about time management; most of our writers work on a freelance basis as contributors. Some people may contribute several articles for one issue, and none the next, and so on and so forth. So, if you're interested in working on a review, and interview, podcast, or anything else that's creative and involves writing - please PM me and I'll be happy to discuss the wide array of possibilities. We're really looking forward to creating a cool community-run magazine.
