It never stopped working. Nuff said. They just made it easier for people who actually train, to gain exp. The new system is extremely fair and I gain a lot more experience this way. And I honestly don't care how much experience my leechers get. They still pay me.

No... *facepalms* It has always been legal but ever since Aran came out the amount of experience you gain is halved. So leeching seems to be obsolete these days.

Go Gallos. People still leech. Nexon will never revert back. Don't believe me? Read up on Spadow.

If nexon profits from it, then they could care less. A good example would be a certain high level beginner. Openly admitting that they leech, they pay for their leech in NX and have never gotten banned for it.

Leeching wasn't ever illegal, it just became less effective with Arans. Leechers all get their exp halved now, and chances are good that things will stay that way permanently. There's always the chance that Nexon will eventually revert, but it doesn't seem very likely. KMS (or was it SEA... I forget) stated that they're not planning on removing the leech nerfing. The other of KMS or SEA implemented a second leech nerf, in which if you didn't hit the monster you wouldn't get exp. I think we can all agree that that failed. Miserably . It didn't last long before they went to same leech nerf that GMS has now and abandoned the no-hit-no-exp rule.

i meant "Illegal" in a sarcastic way, sorry. so all they did was essentially half the experience you get? so if you use a 2x card you get the same as you used to get right?
