Misinformation, disinformation, miscommunication... regardless of what you call it, its pretty much a lie. As we all know, nexon shocked the community in April by editting Evans to be a Pay to Play class. But also, there was another problem; the lies spread by GM Hime caused a lot of confusion and false hope regarding Evans. First Hime stated the Skill Books would be earnable in game (but never stated how obviously). Then later she apologised, and claimed the Evan skills would be earnable in game in the future. So, in response to this, I attempted to confront nexon. So far, its not working, but in the process I am learning just how incompetent Nexon can be. At first, I did try to be polite (maybe too polite): [quote] ticket : Good day sirs and madams. The GM/Moderator Hime on Nexon's Forum stated, in reference to the new class, "From what I've learned, the Mastery books are also earn-able in-game. The Cash Shop is just another method of acquiring it." However, Patch extractions prove this statement to be false. No quest has any such reward and no in game mastery book for the abilities in question exist. Was the Maple community provided disinformation, or are the patch extractions somehow incorrect? [/quote] The response: [quote] nonsense : We're very sorry, but we will not be able to give out any sensitive account information, as you have requested. It is our policy not to give this type of information to users due to security reasons. We apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused you. Sincerely, GM Maverick Nexon America, Inc. GM Fact: Summer time is approaching! GM Maverick plans to go sightseeing and visit each map at least once! Security Tip: For security reasons, please do not give your password to anyone for any reason. Nexon representatives will NEVER ask you for your password. [/quote] When did I ask for account information? And honestly I dont give a damn about his summer plans. Anyway, I replied with this: [quote] ticket : Hello, some time ago I received a response to a ticket I submitted, however, the response from GM Maverick had nothing to do with the issue stated in the ticket. GM Maverick stated something about not being able to give out sensitive account information, but I never asked for account information. I asked a question regarding something GM Hime stated regarding Evan Mastery books being earnable in game. Here is a copy of that ticket in which I would like a fair answer to, and a copy of the reply that made little to no sense: Ticket: 19000-73578 "Good day sirs and madams.

Dude, why does it matter? The skillbooks are like 4k total in nx, you can do surveys to get them if you wanted. =/

Gl getting to them, they're most likely not going to make evans a ftp character, with all the income they're racking in from DBs, they probably won't bother since evans have practically died in terms of popularity at this current moment.

You have to tell them they're wrong without mentioning extracted data, or anything of that sort. Otherwise you will continuously get "It is our policy not to give this type of information to users due to security reasons."

I get the fact that nexon wants to make money and hence the skill books require nx, but if they had no intention of eventually making them earn-able in game without nx, then they should never have said so.

But my main concern is now with DBs. They cost $37. You have to defraud the surveys to get that without paying a cent (but you still pay in time, and time is money). Just imagine what will happen to resistance if nexon goes unopposed... P2P $50 for skill books, $25 per job advance? Who knows? However, the main reason I pick on Evan skill books is because I can confront nexon about Hime's lies, and I am not aware of any lies she may have spread about DBs. I only can go off of her lies on Evans.
