Alright,this is mainly for the old-school Maplers,not those that started playing after the release of pirates or so. Im talking about version 3.00,and 4.50.In your honest opinion,do you think that MapleStory was running better when Wizet ruled,or is currently better with Nexon on top? And another thing....is it just me,or is Nexon greedy?Rewarding those who buy NX.I mean,if they stopped being so concerned about money and focused more the important things like hackers,gameplay,and glitches,MapleStory would be a much joyful place. ....Anyway,I don't know...it might just be me that thinks this,but i know im not the only one that misses the days that one could travel throughout a town without seeing someone advertising,or other Maplers flaming each other and talking like idiots. -sigh- Feel free to respond with whatever you believe,agreement or not,you have the right to speak. ---p.s. For those of you that are just gonna say,"but you have NX!"My cash items were not bought with real money,I obtained it through the mts,and it cost a total of 14k.--- ...And another neat fact,people can smega that they're selling cash cards and accounts without any fear at all.Interesting.

Nah, I like it like this. EDIT: But Nexon could try to get a little better.

I agree with you, wizet was a lot better at handling the game. The only reason I quit current MS was because people with NX are getting over powered >w<..2x exp and all that.....+ all of those other new items that help them.

I think buyable 2EXP from the cash shop along with vicious hammers and stupid ass Gachaphon ruined the game... There is no point to level anymore when people can literallity buy mesos from CS and buy levels... It's way too hypocritical, as they say you can't buy mesos from other sites but they sell em, talk about taking out the competition.. Now people get wayy to over-powered items and trade Z Helms which I think its bs...

What I meant was what some people refer to as,"The good 'ol days" And by before pirates,I didnt mean the version,or the class,I meant the crowd that started playing when that job came out was one of the main causes for MapleStory's downfall. o-o

Ya, but i don't understand why you said "Rewarding those who buy NX." because they don't.

Really?Lets see....if you buy NX,you can get any of the following with ease: Mesos(massive amounts)faster training than the creators intended,ability to spam your chat box with inane chatter, and the "right"to look down upon others without NX. Seems pretty clear to me....

First 2x exp is ok by me since theres 2x exp events in game, they let you purchase mesos only from them because they are more reliable than the other people so they are only trying to protect you from getting hacked. I have to agree, spamming is a problem but looking down on people is the person behind the keyboard's problem, not Nexon's since they can't really force people to be nice.

If you can't stand the advantage of nx then either quit or get some yourself. Nexon is a business, they will always be looking to make money. Its not cheap to pay programmers and translators. I don't understand why people think videogame developers have or should have a more noble cause than making money. Nexon's employees have lives and families that need money. If you truely understood how much it costs to keep a server running that uses as much bandwidth as theirs do then you would understand. They aren't running a charity for christ sakes.

Do you know when NXGames took MapleStory away from NEXON? The day of the official release. So unless you are another person who says that they were a part of those 40, 000 names of beta testers that were released by NXGames after beta, you can't claim that you were there when Wizet was in charge. I started playing during halloween of the year of release (2005, was it?) and I think that Nexon has done good work publishing the game. The only thing that I don't like is the advantages that NX users get. That's just not fair. Luckily I can get NX often. I just don't think it is fair for people who cannot get NX very often to not have the advantages as NX users.
