Was going to change my poll vote to "5. Use PST for the North American server and Central European Time (CET) for the European server." but I was unable to.

Global and Europe should have their own time-zones. But I am also in support of AKradian's 24/7 on certain things that are restricted by portions of the day. Such as Flag Race, Kritias Invasions, Events, etc.

Although we do have "pimp stick" "pimp chalice" and "pimp chair" in the game (according to the Owl of Minerva, anyway), so it's a bit hypocritical of Nexon to suddenly decide the word is inappropriate.

I remember seeing a person who had Pimp Chalice in-game. I own a Pimp Stick that was obtained through the Maplehood Event. The Pimp Chair was in a Cash Shop Update under Gachapon.

But blacklisting the word and forcing a name-change? That's pretty hypocritical.

Next thing you know my IGN gets blacklisted for not being "child-friendly" even though it can have multiple meanings. How much deeper will the censorship go until it's deemed ridiculous? Who remembers Showa Town when it was originally released with altered mob frames?

Especially the fact of this type of censorship does more harm than good, but that's a entirely different discussion which at the moment is pretty controversial.

Fair enough, for the most part, but there is literally no defence for pulling the game down without fixing what makes important portions completely unplayable for many people. ok, the issue with the old event can probably wait till next weeks maintenance.

the fact that so many people simply CANNOT do the current event at all cant

(note: if they werent "fixing" the petty stuff like filter, maybe they would have had time to fix the crashing....)

Some people would differ, but I'll agree with you on this one.

With the minor exception of the filter. I think it's a controversial topic that should be reserved for the appropriate place. However I would like to point out that the mistake they made to "unleash the beast" has given us openings for future suggestions, an example seen here:

As a note, we did see all of your comments regarding the language filter and are looking into some potential adjustments to the system.

There's much more I would like to say, but I don't think it's the right time or place for that. At the best, I'd like to see officials engage with the community more about the possible "potential adjustments to the system" that is wanted, not just randomly guessed and assumed. We are the players that make the MapleStory community which leads me to believe that there should be at least a proper discussion on this topic.

Also willing to bet he just got his guild or something to "support" his idea.

That is still technically a community in a sense, just more centered towards a smaller group of individuals. Not everyone is a "big key figure" that can reach out in amazing lengths.

There's also nothing morally wrong with this suggestion in comparison to one I've seen in the past that has actually passed.
