    people logged on to do what they needed to do then stopped playing again/stopped playing every day and at same hours

    to be fair tho the low internet speed people kept getting dc when bars were high
    and i seen someone in ely talking about how they couldn't really play as their ngs kept crashing making maple just close on them
    (they also said sometimes it wouldnt close after they closed maplestory...)

    so im probably going say.... game issues after server merge /and the 1st thing

    When the servers were empty I thought the bots site stopped working, but no, the bots site kept working.

    The thing that happened in one moment, as if it's not strange that all servers were emptied in one moment?
    Or is it like you wrote that there was some interesting event and now nothing?
    Are you saying that Glory people will come back?
    And what problem with the servers? i playing and more with no problems.

    well servers were pretty actually lively around merge and it died down
    talking full towns of active people.....

    could easily sum it down to less activity's need groups and less activity's were big groups give a edge (not to point out just on bases for daily content i wouldn't mind carrying people for bosses like chaos pink bean/chaos horntail... and few others but kinda 1 time a day bosses

    dont really have issues with the game but that doesnt mean someone with a less decked out computer/slower internet can run game perfectly
    and theirs other post here pointing that out... like people getting kicked by the automatic system due to stuff like internet being slow/de-syncing with the server (and that kinda stuff scares people away from playing until a good game patch later)

    also saying most them probably logged on just for merge
    and some still play but during time of the merge they tryed to stay in game longer
    (while now they probably do their daily's and then log out i have been doing that lately play bit then exit maple... run mushroom shrine tengu get frustrated.... quit playing maple for the day lol...)

    and not really issue with servers thinks theirs some issues with the ngs(their anti hack) as looking at it i too seem to have few crash reports from that yet none directly from maple which is odd (could just be it failing to cheek for updates again tho)

    Yes but ... you're talking about the merger. How come suddenly Bera, Scania and Reboot are empty? They were also full to the end both after the union and before the union update. They were always full so what do you think happened?
    Do you think is this becuse the events too? becuse in the Black mage, Adv its was full
    Do you think at glory its will be good bars again?

    This happens around every major patch; something new comes around, people come back to check it out, new thing runs its course in a few weeks and they leave again. If you pay attention, you'll generally see a spike in players coinciding with the major summer and winter updates.

    That's normal for games like this. It's not a matter of the game dying, and surprisingly it's not a matter of nexon's own ineptitude(though I'm sure that's contributed to many exoduses over the years). It just happens.

    non-reboot falls slowly over time dont know why (the world merge was just CPR to that fall trend )
    reboot its "ok", on survive mode as usual with all the negative changes that been and are comeing , also depends on (play"hot"time/events activity/school period....)

    people ask/say few times, they see there is no will & sign of change so they move on
    everyone that was/is following maplestory ingame and on social for atleast month know whats going on

    the "it was ban wipeout so server bars are low" looks good on first hand "yay they ban hackers"
    but then when you look at it again you see the players were gone way before and it is/was just hackers all the time,its much more worse
    (they ban them once in a while then next day twice that total banneed amount are botting again )

    btw its community fault aswell
    one example
    if there is 4 players
    1 is legit
    the other 3 are known around for hacking (smega promote with no shame and brag how much $ they made from selling hacked things)
    how thats possible?
    they sell to eachother alltho each of them hacks on its own?

    Please check the post directly above yours.
    There's no reason to spread doom in every thread.
    You are part of this community too, spreading doom around needlessly also creates that kind of result.

    https://steamcharts.com/app/216150#All
    Numbers are up compared to a few years ago. Seeing as Steam isn't as popular a method for playing the game, I would assume Nexon Launcher is either higher or about the same as well.
    This chart also explains why you're seeing less players now as well.
    September and October seem to be really slow months for MapleStory. Nothing to see here.

    Just a thought, possibly server population is lower because in most states in the U.S. people (young and college age) go back to school in September and now have less free time on their hands to log and play Maple.
