Maplestory should be Pay-To-Play

Title says all. Think about it, they would be able to hire more developers and GMs to ACTUALLY do a sufficient job of running the game and keeping it a fun environment. How many of you have played World of Warcraft? The Game Master response on that game is almost INSTANT. I was amazed when I received a PM from a GM in seconds of logging an IN GAME ticket, let alone an out of game ticket would probably have a PERSON responding to your question or problem rather than a 'Windows 98' bot in the storage closet. This was because people PAY to log onto World of Warcraft. And look what they get back? A game that WORKS. A game they get to PLAY, rather than DEAL with for free. I would gladly pay 15.99$ a month (or whatever WoW is) for that. Everyone that's ever played maplestory has had to deal with Nexon, one time or another. No one has had a walk in the park. False bans, False PERMANENT bans, Roll backs, Extended server patches, hacks that effect our hard work and even hacks that steal our belongings. I think Maplestory would have a way better community as well, if paying was a neccessity. No one would be able to make multiple accounts to MESS with the rest of the community, such as ALL the random names (everything that looks like a baby slammed it's fists on the keyboard to make a name) on this page. This is just my point of view. If you think otherwise, you must like to deal with people wasting your time. Thanks for reading :] If you did. Edit: Well I'm completely convinsed that 45% of the maple community is full of poor idiots or 9 year old children; 5% of the population is full of basil trolls; and the other 50% is full of open minded people, possibly unable to pay to play, but still can consider such a drastic change in gameplay.

No it wouldn't work on a 2d side scroller.

If you make a free service a pay service all of a sudden, membership often dwindles and sometimes even dies completely. Maplestory is the largest non-browser free MMORPG on the net. It's supported enough by the people, and yes there are a lot of them, that buy NX.

i dun think its a good idea cause what if not much ppl pays to play then nexon won't get profits and stuff. and after maybe ppl in MS might get bored of being alone and quit and least ppl play
