2) This was a retroactive statement following a series of autoban features they might have implemented that didn't kick in until now
They might have changed the logic of the autoban to hit more people. Before this most people spaced out their death times to avoid an autoban, some died consecutively until 0% and the autoban didn't even trigger. There is obviously some kind of condition that would've triggered it in the past but I feel like nexon changed it recently and broadened it under the pretence that it was always illegal to suicide anyway. If this is true it would mean that nexon specifically targeted the suicide kanna meta in order to bring it to an end.
This isn't new, repeated dying always had a chance to trigger an autoban ever since this game's inception. Nexon is simply re-affirming this policy due to the latest meta.
1: Genderlocked items shouldn't even be a thing +1
2: I think all (or most) badges should have pots in them. Why KMS makes non pottable is a mystery to me
3: Just up the normal spawn rate in all maps to kishin level
4: AF should be a shared mechanism to begin with, but I wouldn't mind if they make it drop more often so we could actually speed up the process
5: second pendant slot should be perm by default
6: cwkpq should be revamped as well, I miss that pq
I really hope she keeps her word when she says "provide information that can help our players to understand our direction". I really want to understand Nexon's direction in changes even if it is an unpopular/bad one. At least we know WHY they do the things they do, being kept in the dark about it is the worst thing.
