You cAn chat here
Just because you don't read other threads, does not mean only Michael has said no.
Now kindly put it to rest already. We finally got one issue settled with certain people campaigning for certain things that are never going to happen, we don't need you starting that up again.
If they implement them, they implement them.
And if they decide not to, there's no point telling us so, because we'll just keep nagging. "Have you changed your mind yet?" "How about now?" "Think it over." "Now? Please?" "I just thought of a brilliant new reason why my suggestion must be implemented!"
If the community can't take a clear "No" for an answer, why even bother saying it, or anything?
You say things like it's absolutely impossible for them to reconsider. Sometimes if a community wants something enough it could change someone's mind.
Other such cases are the matter of Nexon starting up some form of a legacy server.
Off-topic about this... If we aren't following KMS schedule regarding about flame.. why should we all follow their schedule for removing Star Planet? It doesn't make a gosh-dang SENSE.
Y.K.
I didn't say everyone wants flames, but a good chunk of people who actually comment on the forums seem to want flames.
So last year sometime someone on our forums went around campaigning for Nexon to implement a preBB server. He had some support, much in the same way that Daxterbeer has some support for AO, but not enough to get anywhere. Nexon continued to ignore him, but he kept making more and more threads on the subject. Eventually it got to the point of being spam, which made people upset over seeing it so much and in so many threads (since it was sometimes interjected rather forcefully into unrelated threads). This made people mean, and it turned into a very toxic discussion topic. It kept getting worse until Nexon eventually had to make a new rule banning any discussion of legacy maplestory servers period. However threads kept getting created and tensions rose higher and higher to a breaking point, with many people being downright hostile. Ever since then he did stop spamming the threads by and large and overall its better on the forums because of it (in my opinion), but because of the extremely high tensions that occurred, people who have contributed to the GMS forums for a while have become very wary of any behavior that is similar to that, because we don't want to go through another fiasco like that again. Tensions were way too high, people were accusing and being accused all the time of completely ridiculous nonsens and overall it was not pleasant for anyone on the forums.
Now, to tie this in to AO. Daxterbeer has been campaigning for AO to be brought to GMS for a while now, and he does have some (rather a lot from what I have seen) support for bringing it over. It started out as a single thread, then a few more, but entirely manageable on the old forums. It wasn't spam. Nexon kept quiet on the issue and he eventually let it almost die. More recently, he started bringing it up again, in more and more threads where he felt it was relevant. This kept going on until the CM, @KThxBaiNao told him that NexonNA had no current plans to bring AO to GMS. For a lot of people that was good enough, and they felt that the issue should be dropped. But Daxterbeer kept bringing it up again and again, creating multiple threads about the issue and somewhat forcefully throwing it into threads that weren't really related to AO at all (like the threads on nebulites) (sound familiar?), and people started to get annoyed as they saw the issue as being over. This kept going on and some people got more and more upset at seeing his comments about AO, until one of GMS's game directors, @OneLetter stepped in with a definitive NO for AO. He clearly stated that they will not be implemented in GMS (without giving a reason). That should have been enough, but Daxterbeer kept posting more and more about AO and trying to convince GMS to bring them over. Its mirroring pretty closely what happened on our old forums with the preBB legacy server discussions.
As people got more and more upset with seeing these threads, Daxterbeer started posting less and less about anything else, until the bulk of his comments and threads are about bringing over AO to GMS. This causes some people to associate seeing his forum name with a topic that should have been laid to rest a while ago, and they automatically let their tensions and emotions rise.
I'm simplifying a bit, but the rather hostile reaction you experienced in this thread is just people who are being wary about having the forums locked down with incredibly high tension and anger about a subject that should be left to die.For some people they are so tired of seeing this come up that they don't even stop to think that the poster might be an EMS player and will have no idea of why its getting so annoying over here. We are sorry that you had a negative experience, but please try to understand that there was quite a bit of history behind these reactions.
Keep in mind that's nearly a year hence at this point.
