In KMS ver.1.2.331, Damage Skin Storage Slot maximum was increased from 35 slots to 36 slots:
The maximum number of Damage Skin Storage slots has been increased to 36.
However, when this update was merged with GMS in v.218, this change was not applied, leaving us with 35 Damage Skin Storage Slots maximum:
GMS is the only version on MapleStory that has less than 36 Damage Skin Storage Slots maximum, despite having more damage skins available than KMS. It is necessary we have at least the same maximum limit as KMS - if not more - because of this.
Summary: Increase the Damage Skin Storage Slot maximum to 36 or higher in GMS.
Note: I previously had a bug report thread on this matter, but since then the entry in v.218's Patch Notes has been redacted. As such, I have made this a Suggestion/Request to continue pursuing a change and gather support.
Brief bug summary: The custom portion of the Hashtag Chair cannot fit all possible text, due to the fact that English phrases take up more characters and width than Korean text. As seen in the below image, the emoticons are outside the visible space, with only the tops of them visible. Using 7 hashtags would likely have text off-screen - even with shorter hashtags. My personal suggestion would be to make the region scroll in some way.
More details: As the ability to compose this chair is event-limited, expediency is required. Developers should be accountable to assure the event content they advertise works properly within the given period, or otherwise extend the interact-able portion of the event to compensate for late addressing.
Judging from how some hashtags in the phone dialogue differ from how they display in the chair itself, it appears the developers hoped to circumvent a technical solution by truncating some hashtag text, disregarding that most sums of comments could still easily overflow the visible area.
Steps to reproduce:
Give yourself 700 Hashtag points to reach Level 3 in the Maple Hashtag event.
Add various Hashtag comments to the chair (up to 5 at Level 3) and observe the chair (for example, the same arrangement as my screenshot).
Notice that the latter portion of the comments gets clipped off the bottom of the chair.

I am personally heavily against the idea of Luna-esque world merging. Such an act would take away from other development, as well as resetting various areas of player data similarly to Luna (Friends, Wedding/Friendship Rings, etc.). What bothers me the most is forcing players to decide which 2+ characters they must delete just to regain a single slot. This all seems incredibly unfair to me, and I'd rather not subject any of you to it.
However, I will say that alliances aren't as prominently established toward players as I'd like, and I'd be more for more alliances that are better defined. Most simplistically would be highlighted blocks around groups of allied worlds, but anything to elaborate their grouping at-a-glance.
Updating can take a while, depending on your computer. For instance, it's been going over 2 hours for me... Mainly because I need a new computer. Having watched Windows' Resource Monitor, it is updating files, but it is just taking a long time to rebuild all the game files.
I have inquired about changing Nexon Launcher to display file progress similarly to the old Manual Patcher. I personally hope such a change is made in the future so we can know what the progress is when updating.
