I am really bad with timezones and most of the time i have to use a shitty converter, so i would appreciate a "maintenence timer" so we know how many hours and minutes are left!

I'm oddly addicted to this game and i feel such a jerk for having to ask people in the general chat for answers to something so basic.

    Rather hard to make such a timer, since completion times are at best approximate. Conversion is otherwise easy.

    It'd probably be easier to just ask for your timezone to be included. as for the 24 hour clock you mentioned in another post, just add 12 to the time to get it.

    Honestly I think they should adjust time zones accordingly to each region. PST time for the north American server and AEDT time/Whatever they use for the Europe server. I'm not even sure why they would put us in that awkward ass time zone lmao.

    Honestly, I would rather they put timestamps whenever they put an update saying that maintenance will be extended until further notice OR when the update is completed, but then the game is taken down again for more maintenance.

    Example (from today's V patch):
    [Update] MapleStory is going back into maintenance until further notice, while we investigate an issue that was discovered. Please check back here for updates.

    [Complete] The maintenance has been completed as of 2:30 PM PST (5:30 PM EST / 11:30 PM CET / 9:30 AM AEDT). Cash items in your inventory have been extended to cover the amount of time the game was unavailable. Please log out of the Nexon Launcher and then back in before you play the game.

    [Update] The maintenance has been extended until further notice.

    I approve the usage of timers at least online timer would be nice, I used to use them whenever I had to mark an event for friends.
