If only it were that easy to just "suggest" things and have Nexon actually care. They are well aware of hackers being very common in many different places. Many awesome and efficient suggestions have been made in the past, such as making the process of creating new accounts MUCH harder than it already is so that hackers can't always come back so easily when they get banned. Sadly, it just seems like Nexon likes having hackers around to stimulate the economy. If you haven't noticed, a lot of the items that many players use on a daily basis( epic potential, clean slate, innocence, protection scrolls, golden hammers, etc) are amassed in HUGE quantities by hackers and sold at a somewhat cheap price in the FM. Can you imagine how expensive those items will be if there were even 50% less hackers? Casual players will be even more discouraged to want to upgrade their items since Maplestory has become a "pay2win" kind of game. And Nexon will lose many players/potential customers.

Anyways, that's just my theory on it all. Even though it makes sense, Idk what Nexon knows.

I do not disagree with you, to a point.

As a casual player for nearly 10 years... I've not bought anything from the Free Market since the Big Bang update. .

There is no 'win' endgame.... I just like being able to explore. If I can't complete a quest or, hackers are crashing the game...aside from me, NO ONE trying to do the same gets to enjoy the game, despite how they decide to play.

If you don't get to enjoy the game because it crashes on loadup, rooms you visit are occupied by hackers or, the hackers make the game unplayable via lag/crashing... guess what... as a new player. (or even seasoned,,,.)..you quit!

I've been wanting to hunt for a Reindeer familiar from Reindeer at Mu Lung, but every single map and channel with this mob has a damn hacker in it. Xmas was ruined, dood.

I made a post about this (hacking) in the 'Rant and Raves' forum. Only to have the images of the hackers removed (to protect them?) by the poor moderator, bound to uphold Nexon and rules that don't exist (at least not shown or revealed after asking) ...

I'm not reporting anyone, specifically... I'm *suggesting* the problem be dealt with by Nexon. It would be nice if other members of the community could speak up, instead of cowering and just living with the problem.

Believe me,. I've reported frequently. Being a solo voice gets nothing done...

I'm not complaining about a beef I have with some frivolous change to my player, traits or UI... hacking is systemic to all of Maple and needs to be dealt with.

If you wish to excuse it (hacking) as Nexon does, so be it. I refuse and will keep posting about it. It is BS and a slap in the face to those who play the game honestly.

Can picking up items be done instantly, cause my god if you don't have a pet, i feel like you have to be a riven main and bash the keyboard like a possessed man.

Many moons ago, you could pick up drops as fast as a pet could. As Akradian stated... player pick up has been reduced, over time, to assure you get so frustrated, you purchase a pet. The tot's sheep pet is like a drug dealer giving out free samples...

Why can there not be a close window 'x' when you start maple using gamelauncher ?
