Waitwaitwait. Not sure if I'm reading that email wrong.
1) Players who own a work glove are banned? Or only if they bought/traded/found one within "24 hours"? I know a few friends who own a WG =x
2) Hopefrikin'ly this ban means only White Work Gloves. I currently own a pair of Blue ones.

If that WG banning is true there will probably only be 7 people left in the game.
On the plus side, I dont think any of my chars have an attack WG as I havent been able to afford one. lol

That is one ridiculous trollsome shoop. That's practically EVERYONE in the entire game who gets banned. It's not even correct: buying WGs to GAIN NX?

Yes it is, thats what they do, buy atk wgs and MTS them for NX. I saw a lot of people using smegs to buy 10+atk wgs for 500+mill and other MTSable items before Maple went down.

Having a work glove to me was never very enticing since theyre so plain of a color. At least Stormcaster Gloves were shiny. Not sure how I feel about this if it is true...

im going to join with the realists and call this a shop. he has the email in full view yet blocked out his own email twice and doesn't even show the inbox on the sidebar?
plus there's usually a "content blocked" yellow-ish bar that'd appear near the top of the image since it's missing nexon's image sh'it. fake.

While banning every account with just one WG isn't very likely, it might be possible they're going to ban account that have more than one WG's.

I cropped the image because one of the tabs was a pornographic site and I didn't want to get warned for it. But yeah, the image seems to be very fake.

Well alright I somewhat see it now (still doesn't say WHERE they are getting the extra mesos from). In reply to the fact people were buying 10 atk WGs for 500m, it seems insanely counterproductive by paying such a ludicrous amount of mesos. The NX ratio is already IDon'tKnowHowHighItIsNow (how high was it before the meso exploit arrived?). That's just destroying the game right there.

Also says "within the last 24 hours," so even if it was true, only those who had gotten WGs in the last 24 hours would be banned. o.o
... doesn't mean I believe it, though. Lol.

Looks like yet another rollback.
Quote:Dear Maplers,
Today at 2:30 PM Pacific we reopened the game after a long maintenance to remedy a meso exploit threatening the Maple economy. Unfortunately, soon after the game reopened another exploit was discovered that introduced unhealthy amount of mesos into the economy through Free Market, forcing us to bring down the game servers again at 5:45 PM, Pacific Time.
As you already may know, introduction of such mesos have damaging effects on the game economy such as raising the cost of your in-game items, which is why we have made the difficult decision to restore the MapleStory servers to an earlier state: Monday, November 8, 3 AM Pacific (6 AM Eastern). This is 12 hours prior to the first restore point. Please understand that this measure is our best solution against the exploited mesos to minimize its crippling effects. We know you will not be pleased about this decision and we understand those of you who logged in during the time will be greatly disappointed to lose your efforts.
We will do our best to ease the change by performing the following:
* 5,000 Maple Points to players who logged in between 3 AM – 3 PM Pacific (6 AM – 6 PM Eastern) on Monday, November 8.
* 5,000 Maple Points to those who logged in between 2:30 PM - 5:45 PM Pacific (5:30 PM – 8:45 PM Eastern) on Wednesday, November 10.
* NX spent during mentioned times above will be refunded in the type originally spent.
* All Cash items will be extended by 72 hours.
* Compensation events will be posted within the next 24 hours.
The game will reopen at approximately 7 AM Pacific (10 AM Eastern) on Thursday, November 11.
Please accept our sincerest apology and know that we will work through the night to ensure safe and timely reopening of MapleStory.
-The Maple Team-
Note: Please know efforts of today’s compensation will be affected by the new restore point and this notice is the official compensation policy. Thank you!
Also we ask of you to keep all discussions regarding this issue to this thread only to minimize the amount of threads and potential spam on the forums. It also allows us to read comments and concerns better. Thank you!
