[Rant] This game's practically dead in terms of actual content.

I have PM'd with the interested. If I have to apologize for anything, it is only for sounding arrogant to anyone in my first post because that was not my intention. If you haven't understood yet, I wanted to share my opinion. It is definitely not thanks to your foul mouthed argumentation that I went back on my steps, but to another person. If you are grown enough you should however know that you can mean something without openly saying it, and one can disrespect another without saying "I disrespect you" while acting, you know, respectlessly. And yes I demand respect, whether you agree with me or not. I don't quote random people and tell them "you are crap, you must think X else you're retarded" out of the blue.

Back to this, seeing as discussing with you is useless because you are the voice of right. I go the opposite of "only the best can thrive" crap, what I proposed is actually doable by everyone, even by you. But you quit back then, so you won't... yet you claim to know better than me how maple works now, apparently. You appear to have fade memories of what you yourself played even, how do you claim to be reliable? (I think this is disrespectful towards your perception, whereas I didn't state "I disrespect you", just so you understand)
When people geared up (very heavily) to make bossing possible/faster, not only to grind more efficiently as you say (however a lukless 14x bishop with genesis30 and full int scrolled gear could really outdo a normal level 200 bishop), and when certain jobs were required to HP wash to even be able to face certain bosses (BG, pink bean, in some cases even horntail). You don't remember? And how do you make int gear, how do you get genesis30/mw20? Was HP wash free? I believe not, and it made quite the difference between who paid and who didn't. I don't see any complaint whatsoever about it, even if a nonwashed level 200 nightlord was pretty much screwed up even if they were willing to pay a million dollars. You were the n1 drk, kudos. Zero relevance. I was nothing and now without spending a single cent I am the 3rd drk in my server, where drk is abused by overpayers and where the cap damage is 50mil. As pointless as you in this thread. Now find me a level 170 who can outdamage a level 250. And find me a name of one person who leveled 1-200 before big bang in a week.

You are unable to see that making potential more available to everyone, which is what they're doing, is a viable solution too. It will take longer to fix than wiping everything, but if you are the kind of person that bombs around at the first (big) obstacle then I'm happy I'm not you. I don't even need to call you names after you openly attacked me during a discussion with someone else. We have a very different idea of respect, good for me that you don't care of my server and I don't care about you.

Nexon Korea proved to be able to listen to their playerbase. You say it's worthless to try, then what do you want to do? You are very good at steaming off, but terrible at proposing. There are 3 things you can do in this condition,
- either you throwdesk and start raging, which is what you do, but if you really loved maplestory you would try out your best to get it to work again, if you did I don't know but as I understand from the aforementioned "change of president" you tried it in the wrong moment,
- either you start taking down ideas for big changes, which you labeled as wasted effort, maybe with Nexon AM I don't know but in Korea it actually can get results, some will remain dreams but some might be considered (if delivered through the right channels, and let's not start a discussion about this),
- either you try out solutions in the present and if you find anything that works you pass it to other people so if they want they can try it out, which is what I did by expressing my (you don't understand the word) opinion. And by doing this I don't speak on behalf of anyone except me and myself only, you can go on thinking that you bring the ideals of the old-but-good maple community, but guess what, I'm a part of that community yet here I am.

The only thing I get away with is your suggestion to quit, because as it appears I'm trying to bring on a discussion which, since the moment you started handling it, is directionless. I have been warned and received an infraction, it's a sign that my posts have been considered unsuitable so better cut that off. I don't care the slightest if people give my posts a bad reputation, it means they disagree, okay. I know that what I did is right and I tried to suggest it - it didn't work. I will just go back to enjoy what I was doing and let you boil, if that's what you want.

Insightful.

Also, to the 65k > 200k range in 3-4 months, it may be seen as a poor increase if you look it with the eyes of a 2-2, but looking at it down from the 65k that's triple the damage. At the cost of time, it doesn't seem bad. Triple it twice more and you get 1.8mil range in the time span of a year. How far would you get playing 6 hours a day in the old maple? If a bishop on 43x exp required 16 hours to do 199-200, and 43x is not really your daily exp multiplicator, maths is up to you. Enjoy your visual progress of 80 level up screenshots taken during a year's (more likely 2) time in the same map, doing the same thing. I personally enjoy more progressing on my own gear, but yeah, opinions. I even liked pre-bb but now come tell me grinding years at skeles was nice and fun anyone.

edit: one thing you GMSsians might look into could be a different star force system, if it's even wanted and possible to get a change in that. I believe KMS's works as a very good meso sink and good to take away equips from the market too (due to the booming), EMS's is much affordable by poorer players whereas it offers an excellent equips trash bin (for example to empty the free market of all trash flamed cra).
