Ahoy! We appreciate your concern with the content we're sharing on our social platforms, but do understand that acquiring permission from artists takes time. Currently, we've only been able to receive confirmation from a select few artists so our selection has been very limited.
When it comes to featuring MapleStory fan creations, it's a great feeling to know that MapleStory goes beyond GMS. We'd like to feature artwork from all over the world. I am fully aware that Pixiv comprises mostly of foreign artists.
I'd love to meet more creative peeps from within our community!
Additionally, our Tumblr is also a great resource that appears to have been neglected for many years. I am currently working to revive our official Tumblr for the very purpose of reaching out to artist and write engaging blogs! I will be adding a submit button very soon so artists can reach out to us on Tumblr in the near future.
Again, this was all in our initial plans to feature Maple content from all over the world. When it comes to community, it's the players that make it and our joy in spreading it.

As a lover of pixel fashion, I'm going to make sure we pull a lot from this thread!
While it probably won't make it into the next rotation, we'll be sure to look through the ones posted here for rotations in the near future.
Sadly, we can't go by whatever is written here without looking into things further.
The best we can do is to have our CS team look into these cases, but I've been informed by them that no legitimate player who purchased the weapons were banned.
However, players who acquired the weapons through illegitimate means were indeed banned.
Ahoy! I've forwarded this concern to our CS team, but here's what I've gathered.
Players who purchased the weapons were not permabanned. Accounts that had a hand in creating the weapons were banned.
Our team made sure to only delete the weapon from those who purchased the weapons and not ban their account.
has caused them to lose their account permanently.
The reason for their permanent ban was due to "participation of exploits".
Our valued players were accused of terminating ToS, although they had no idea that they had made purchased of an item that was made illegally.
However, a permanent ban was not the proper protocol for dealing with players who purchased the weapons.
Please have the players submit a ticket to our Customer Support team for further investigation.
