A perfect solution to mesos seller sites

Mesos selling website are successful because there's a large enough demand for mesos for people (like myself) that have far more $ than time. I personally don't use them, but I understand the allure. So, why not simply allow people to put mesos in the MTS? That way Nexon makes money from mesos sales, not the mesos sellers. The free market determined ratio of mesos to NX ($) is maintained. Also, there is no inflation (because no mesos are added to the economy- they just exchange hands). I honestly can't see a single flaw with this logic of allowing mesos to be bought/sold in the MTS. People will need to buy NX to buy their mesos, so Nexon makes their profit (instead of some annoying mesos selling site), no inflation, no more 'selling NX scams'. It's perfect. Someone correct my logic- it seems too good to be true.

That would totally kill Nexon's meso bags from CS. They were top sellers, I think, and mostly because of noobs with NX, but don't know how to use it. I think its a good idea. No more scamming, get mesos to NX easier.

I think it would make the game a bit too easy. Any in-experienced mapler with $$ could just buy mesos, get the most godly equips available, making all our achievement kinda worthless. Though I know Nexon would do alot for money..lol

There should be some Tax. There are just too many mesos in our economy. If we just "exchange them" all the time, there would be much more mesos in our system. And this doesn't really solve the meso selling site issue, they will just keep doing it, offering better deals than Nexon.

This was a reality when MTS was released, which only decreased income from companies like the TS mentions, which were already around, meaning it was already a reality. Nexon has even added to this by implementing the Potential system, and you're still this clueless? Do you not realize how many high leveled people have quit because their goals and achievements can be surpassed by people 50+ levels lower than them, provided they're willing to pay Nexon more money? OT: This is a good solution, but I think it's already too late.

azimuth457 Sure, I'm clueless.. I don't care about the high levels that quit lol, it shouldn't be a reason to quit. And I'd just put a level limit on the meso buying thing in MTS.

Just because someone doesn't waste their entire weeks salary on gacha doesn't mean they don't know how to use it. If you, "know how to use it" as you are stating, you either have an addiction to spending money on a weekly basis to feed your alter ego on an online game.

ThiefCerenit I don't see how it shouldn't be a reason to quit, to be completely frank with you. Nexon said themselves years ago that they'd never make NX something that gives a player an unfair advantage in the game. Even 2x cards were pushing it for some people. I shouldn't have to explain that many people played this game in a competitive manner, where time and effort put you ahead, only to one day have the competition change on them. That right there should be enough reason to quit. Do I need to add that some people aren't so addicted to this game as to spend hundreds of dollars obtaining virtual wealth, fame, and power? If they have to pay money to get the things they want out of a game once completely free, well then of course they should quit.

azimuth457 I'm addicted enough to stay. I meant that lower level people outdmging you because of their funding, shouldn't be a reason to quit. I just play for myself, I'm not competitive. The fact that Nexon lied to us while they still have millions of people who play, shows that a lot of people probably don't care.

Although Wizet is still the producer, Nexon is their publisher, which means they make those decisions.
