Maple Business People having to make new characters

Hi guys, as alot of you know alot of people have been banned recently due to obtaining Exploited mesos.
Whether you were a hacker or a victim, it didnt matter. ALOT of people got banned.
I wonder, how has this ban affected the business side of Maplestory.

Maplestory has its accidental problems and has been frustrating players, making them use the term, "nexoned."
However the bans recently is with ign's and exploits and so on is a feature of Maplestory.
Yes, it may be there to make the game better and allow fairness (it is hardly fair tho), however people are still frustrated with it.
Yes, they are aware of the banning problems and are working to fix it.
BUT; what if these problems aren't detrimental to their business? People might say they are going to quit if they are permanantly banned and even some temporary players say they are going to quit if they don't get any compensation and all that BS.
YES, I said BS cause lets be honest here, how many people made a new character out of ALL THOSE PEOPLE that got banned.
I would say quite alot.

Making a new character for temporary use is what many people do, but what they dont realise is that on paper that looks really good as MS is supposedly getting "more players" rapidly at this time. Why is what's on the books important? cause of investors...
They want to look at whats on paper, and MS obviously doesnt show the bad technical difficulties they have. They show whats good and people making new accounts is whats good for their image. Might not bring in serious money, or does it?

People start new characters and want to might want to make their main at some point, Then the NX buying happens (just like when your main was an explorer and then you decided a xenon was going to be your main). People might think, "oh no I am not going to spend NX on this" and yes that might be true but in reality people buy NX for their new character. ALOT of people buy NX for their new characters once they start to like it. Thats why Maple makes so much money. Thats also why different jobs not sharing NX will be better for business.

So maybe Maple's problems with bans will allow them to make more money in the short term?
Maybe it will look better at the end of the year when they suddenly got more registrations at this season and showed the investors?
What do you think? Thnx for reading

Well it is working for their business, unfortunately their revenue goes up every year. Not every month. Every year.
