The root of all Maple evil So, I realized something recently. The root of all Maple evil isn't DB's. It isn't from damaged-crazed maniacs or KSers. It's lack of KPQ and LPQ. Am I crazy? Definitely not. For most of us, the best Maple friends we've ever made were in KPQ and LPQ; back when leveling through PQ was a long and arduous process, we would have great friends to help us along. Remember sitting in some random LPQ channel and getting excited when you recognized someone from a former PQ? Remember goofing around during the portal stage and laughing when someone touched the "invincible" golems? Heck, remember when an HP fighter could defeat the "invincible" golems? Since we no longer have great friends, we no longer enj

You do NOT need funds to make a Beginner. There's been a lot of threads lately about spending hundreds of millions or even billions of mesos to fund a Beginner. So, I'd like to get a few things straight here. You do NOT need funds to make a Beginner. I'm unfunded and so are several of my Beginner friends. Most of us are over level 70 and haven't even gotten a zhelm yet. Your equips will come with time as you make friends and mesos, and let me just say right now that leeching will earn you no respect in the Beginner community. If you want to leech to level 150 or something that's fine, but seriously, wait until you're over level 80 or else you won't get any respect. Many Beginners choose to grind, PQ, or quest for their levels. Why spend lud

Nexon should delete old IGNs. [b]Final edit:[/b] It feels like nobody is reading this fully. Most people are just skimming it and jumping to conclusions. I would clear most of them up, but seeing as this is just a suggestion, it's not really worth the time. Besides, this thread has gotten out-of-hand anyway. Note to self: never expect people to read something in full. Don't you hate it when you come up with a fantastic IGN for a new character and you try it out only to find it's taken? Then, out of curiosity, you look up the name on the rankings to find that it belongs to a level 17 warrior with equips that show they haven't played in years? I think that after two months of inactivity and if the character hasn't hit 30 within those two mont

For explorers: would you play an all-Explorer world? Let's say Nexon decided to throw us Explorers a bone and give us a world specifically reserved for our own kind. That means no legends (including DB,) CK's, or Resistance. No UA's either, but that's a given. I personally would join the world without hesitation. I'm still sick of all the new classes, even though they've been around since Aran came out. I would love to get a taste of the old MS while still keeping up with current game content. What do you think? Good idea? Bad? Why or why not? [b]Edit:[/b] Apparently some of y'all can't read. I said an explorer-only server, not a pre-BB or pre-Pirate server. And yes, hypothetically you could switch back and forth between the servers.

A Quick quotThank Youquot to Nexon No, this isn't a sarcastic thread. Nexon, I'd just like to thank you for this great event. A lot of us, including me, have been frustrated about the cost of AP resets in the Cash Shop. Not only have you made it [i]much[/i] easier to reset AP now (although it does take some time to get the coins,) but you've also given us the freedom of doing quests which take us away from our typical grinding spots, adding variety to the gameplay. Nexon, you rock. I don't care what other people say; odds are people will keep complaining even though you've done something nice for us (people just love to complain about you, as you already know,) but I'm grateful for your generosity here. Thanks! Edit: What on earth happened

We need an Israeli server. I'm not racist, really. I'm a fluent English speaker that's currently in Spanish 3 (an [i]elective[/i] course for Juniors at my school) and I try to converse with Spanish-speaking people regularly. However, I am unable to learn Hebrew in the area I live as it isn't provided as an elective at school. If I'm in CPQ and I want to let my party mates know we shouldn't get ahead because it isn't our win, I'd like them to understand. I know not everyone is able to learn English and Spanish, and I'm fine with speaking Spanish in GMS, but encountering Israeli Maplers can lead to some very awkward situations when trying to communicate. I'm in Galicia right now, but my former server was Broa. A few years back when I was in B

Hacked--no, super hacked. So yeah, my account has most definitely been hacked. Judging by the rankings it looks like none of my equips were taken, but whoever this was really went over the top. Not only was my password changed, but my email passwords were changed as well. Honestly, I'm impressed; I never gave out any of my account info to anyone. Whoever this was is really talented. Anyway, I have no idea what to do. Any ideas? Logging a ticket wouldn't yield a response for a long time.

Confusion regarding 3-lined items Okay, so I recently found a 3-lined Mithril Brist while farming for maple weapons at Dark Drakes. A Mithril Brist is a level 50 item, and honestly, I know nothing about potential stats. If anyone could answer a few questions, I would greatly appreciate it. 1. Can level 50 items become unique or epic when cubing? 2. What's the highest stat range you can get from a level 50 item? 3. Is it worth anything? Forget the current stats; it's worthless as is. The only decent thing it has is 6 luk, and that's still pretty bad. 4. At what level do items begin to have worth? Thanks! :3 Edit: Questions answered. Thanks, guys!

The Hunt for the Hidden Forum Hello, Beginner army! As you all know, our dear forum subsection has been cast into obscurity. Now, normally this would be a bad thing, but as a result we are now members of a select group of Maplers that have access to a secret forum. This can only mean one thing: the existence of [i]another[/i] secret forum, removed from the site in the thousands of years since its birth. I'm sure we are all thinking the same thing here. Who will lead this expedition? Psh, not me. I'm the ideas guy--the one who comes up with sloppy plans for missions, like searching for some secret subforum on a Maplestory site. Still, we need a leader! I can bring flashlights. I got like a warehouse full of 'em thanks to this back-alley deal

Just another peacemaking thread I know that this will probably just be another failed attempt to throw in some logic here, but guys, why are we fighting? We don't need to. Regardless of who has a feud with someone or who did what to whom, one thing will always ring true: this is the internet, and at the end of the day, your fights with people here don't matter. I hate being frank like this, but you're really just wasting your time getting upset with people. If someone makes a personal attack on you, sure, defend yourself; but there's no reason to get personal. Please be the bigger person and walk away. Yes, it [i]sucks[/i] doing it, but in the end you'll end up a lot less upset. I'm not pointing fingers here, because honestly, Maplestory ch
