I know tons of players who quit the normal EU server because it's so much p2w, and don't want to put up with the lagg in current reboot server. I know at least 9 players who would come back from the dead to play on an EU reboot server, and I personally would also love to see it happen

There are several games where they fixed the "dying servers" issue by letting players buy world transfers, like World of Warcraft. I think this could help players in Maplestory as well, seeing how many players are left in an empty world after the most recent world transfer events. I myself am not suffering from this problem but after seeing all the forum posts (both here and unofficial forums) I thought there must be something we can do.

To prevent people hopping servers and disrupting the market there, you can add some restrictions:
-One world transfer per year/account
-Don't let players take ALL their stuff, it might make them angry but that's how it works in World of Warcraft. At least they get to play with all their chars in a populated server again.
-If they have a name that already exists in the world they transfer to, make them do a name change first.
-Don't let them trade with anyone for the first 24 hours after world transfer.

I don't know how much hassle it is for Nexon to perform a world transfer but for $20-40 it should be profitable right?

Pig beach. Don't ask me why, but it reminds me of the days when you had to grind to get to level 30, and the game was really social.
I also kinda miss the old Mushroom Shrine, with Kinoko endlessly asking you for fox tails. But I love the revamp so it's ok

I too had difficulty completing the Dragon and Tiger quest. I've noticed that BW hackers usually kill the monsters on the edge of the map slower/not at all, and it takes them at least 1 second to kill the monsters after they spawn. If you play a character that can jump around fast you should be able to finish the race with a bit of patience (waiting for mobs to spawn).

The phone number thing wont work because maplestory has a young playerbase and not all of them will have a phone, and they can't just use their parents phones because their siblings might also want to play.

I agree with the hidden maps, used to make things a lot more fun....

It only takes a few hours with the burning to get to 150, I think 2 weeks is quite a bit of time.

Two weeks to get to 150 is ample time, even if you're starting with nothing.

If it makes you feel any better, there should be another burning event coming soon.

If the servers were working OK, there was enough room to train, there wasn't horrendous lagg sometimes, then yes, you could reach level 150 pretty fast. But we dealt with loads of maintenance, disconnecting/lagg due to poor servers, other players also wanting to train (so lots of channel changing/map switching), and false assumptions (I also assumed the burning would last the entire day). Add to that the fact that most of us have school/jobs/a life, and suddenly the burning project seems really really short.
