I would like to adress the current forum changes being made. I think the Rant and Raves section is the perfect place to post about it. I've seen it got moved to the child categorie of off-topic. I would like to make a couple remarks about this, 90% of Rants were maple related and therefore it isn't off-topic. Another point I would like to highlight is that child categories doesn't work well on this forum and will decrease the forum visiblity.

If you really wanna improve the forum than there is a section where you can start, the Maple Classified section.
First of all I think its a bad name for this section, guild and market stuff is not really classified stuff at all.
Second I think guild topics need to split up from the market section, all the guild recruitment are very poorly visible.
Thirdly you could even consider splitting them up per server. So a new player who joins a server can easily find potential guilds he likes to join or an item on the market he or she would like to buy.

I could keep ranting on for hours and hours, but let's start improving the forums in the correct way, taking visibility as main factor for improvement!

Incase of Reboot equip shouldn't be handed out at all. Destroys the concept of the server.

i dont understand those time's its 17:53 here now so when can we play?

23.00 CET.

The UTC time is equal to UK wintertime. But I agree they made the time confusing, since rest of the world use a 24hr clock so 10pm UTC is 22.00, which is equal to 23.00 CET.

I hope in future they will indicate times with a 24hr clock and with CET (since Luna servers are CET)

Let's start this brand new section of with its first topic, thank you for the section @KThxBaiNao

On the old forum I had a topic where I shared my Youtube videos with my fellow maplers and I like to continue that traditiion here. Haven't figured out how to make it a nice little video box yet, where you can inmediately start watching the video so for now I just put some links.
