In short:
- Glitch -> An error that incidently happens (not all the time)
- Bug -> An error that keeps happening all the time
For example, the whole BigFoot thing, was in fact a bug, since the "error" was hardcoded in the maplestory sourcecode and could be repeated time after time.
Nexon uses the term glitch for playing in a way not intended by the creators by abusing flaws in the game, which is not intended by the creators. [1] Nexon mix around on these sometimes though...
A bug is rather a flaw in the game, but it does not give anyone advantages if abused.[1]
