The bots have completely messed up interactive server’s balance, but there is still a way to save the game:

1. Set a daily mesos farming cap – this will limit the insane inflation caused by bots and multi-client accounts.
2. Increase the value of boss crystals – this compensates for the reduced income from the daily gold cap.
3. Make event cubes untradeable for 30 days after use – this would drastically reduce the impact gold-farming studios have on the interactive server.

I know you guys don’t currently have the ability to fully handle VMs and multi-account botting, but this approach works. KMS did the same thing, and the market feedback proves it was the right call.

It’s frustrating to watch MapleStory get ruined by gold-farming studios while simple, proven solutions are ignored. Please take action before the game’s economy collapses completely.

Note: this can only applies to interactive servers, Heroic servers can remain unchanged.
