Closed Make nostalgic server (world)
Hello GMs, FMs, Players and Maplers.
Maplestory is one of the biggest MMORPG games in the world, a game where you can play hours on hours without to even notice.
This game has a big and wide community and like any other game, some peoples like it more and some peoples like it less.
But the truth is, today`s community is only the half of the Community this game could have.
Since the Big Bang patch, a lot has changed and many peoples left the game.
Many peoples saying the game has changed too much and they all just wishing for a miracle, a miracle that let them taste again the good old feeling of a true cooperative game play.
When levelling was hard, jobs were true and not over powered, when we PQ`s spots were full of players and we had to play together to reach new highs in the game.
Some of you might understand what I'm talking about, but probably most of you won't.
To those who does understand, this is our time to make a change, support my suggestion.
And for those who doesn’t, give it a try. It won't affect you in anyway.
My suggestion is simple:
Make a server (world) that is V62 or V83 and let thousand peoples, a complete community that isn’t playing the game now days, a reason to come back, let those who doesn’t know how was Maplestory 10 years ago feel the sweet taste of the nostalgic Maplestory.
Pros:
*Adding more kind of server > reaching to more thousands of new players > making the game bigger.
*Making the Maplestory Global the real true and only Maplestory (removing the need of private servers)
*With a new community, a lot of NX will be purchased.
*It won't affect any of the current players since you don’t touch their servers.
Cons:
*None.
So how do I even know it will work just fine? Check out the amount of peoples that playing old private servers just to have that nostalgic feeling, take a look at the Steam reviews and see yourself how many peoples will RUSH back to Maplestory global if you only make a simple thing – make a server for them!

But before your thread gets locked, let me give you a suggestion for when you remake it on a platform that has no rule against it (such as r/MapleStory on reddit):
"Cons: none"?
Because the cost of publishing a completely separate game is not a con?
Because splitting the existing community of players of the current game is not a con?
Pretending there is no con and no cost associated with the suggestion shows you to either be ignorant or dishonest. It's better to put in the cons and try to counter them.

In addition, do not make reference to private servers; those servers are set up illegally and by hackers.
