Some one at nexon tripped over the power cord

: "You don't need a petition for this, and these types of petitions never work anyway. They'll either move it in the next maintenance or they won't."

At least he is expressing a concern instead of running around dismissing other's attempts to raise awareness. Geminia, if you have a better idea of what actually does work to make changes happen, do share. Moreover, get on it.

The biggest problem here is that we absolutely LOVE Maplestory the game as a concept, but absolutely can't stand the way Nexon America runs it. They do not give the game its due respect and the attention it needs to reach its full potential.

I vote that they pass forward this real gem of a game to a company that knows what the hell they are doing with an MMO.

I say kick back a little and relax about it. All I make sure do daily right now is arcane power stuff out there in the new 5th job area. That matters the most to me, personally. All else is a matter of "do i have the time/desire to do that today?"

The game is a lot more enjoyable if you just give somewhat less of a damn about being in a hurry for everything. Time-sensitive events are a different story...but it's not all that big of a deal taking a few weeks or even months to get to a goal, unless you are one of those impatient types who just have to have it and I mean yesterday. Think back to the old days (if you played that long ago) when it took months to get to 200, no matter how you sliced it or how many 2x cards you purchased. If this game has taught me one thing, it's patience.

I'm on board with this. Maplestory has one of the most wretched chat filtration systems I've ever seen in an MMO, and I've been around the block a few. They can do a better job with filtering out the heavier cuss words without tearing our conversations to shreds. It's the words from commonly used phrases that butt together to partially form a 'bad' word that get censored which becomes frustrating when trying to communicate in MS text chat.

Atop that, you can't see when you get censored in your own text feed, so it complicates things even worse, because you don't know when your words just got star'd unless some one else tells you.
