Instead of saying how Maple ruins your life, lets take some time to see what positive things Maple has done 1. More concentration. From all that endless grinding, I have noticed I can do things longer without being bored as fast, I can actually survive homework 2. Increased Internet literacy Although my literacy isn't perfect on the net, I try to make it as best I can. 3. Improved memory Keeping up to date with prices and the latest speed quiz has sharply increased my memory How has playing Maple Story benefited Basilers?

I learned.... games can really screw you up big time. Trust me everyone will learn it sooner or later.

Just learned one thing: Trust doesnt exist in the Internet.

it's helped my typing, met some friends. gave me something to do. but on the other hand, it really didnt do anything to hurt me either. i don't get why everyone says games ruin lives. i still have a life, got a gf (2.5 years and still strong) i skateboard, chill with friends. so it's just been a time filler, for me.
