Hackers Take the Decent Training Spots
This thread is mostly a rant.
Last summer/fall, places like Galloperas and Roids+Neo Roids were filled with people training (they were some of the best spots to train at the time). If you look at them now, nearly every single channel is filled with hackers (mostly evans).
I understand that they are outdated with Twisted Jesters and Aliens, but have they become so deserted that hackers can hack there in peace? (tried going there on my Mihile, since i got bored of Jesters and wanted something new)

It's their JOB to know EVERY map.
Professional Game Masters should know the game inside and out, better than any player.
You'd expect the cops in your town to know the town better than anyone who visits casually.
Same for paid "Game Masters".

Nexon has essentially turned the game over to the hackers.
It costs them too much money to hire sufficient people to police the game (GMs), so they programmed up a cheap "auto-ban" system that catches some of the hackers along with an acceptable (to Nexon) number of legit players. (Nexon estimates only 20% of players actually buy NX, so losing some legits here and there won't really cost them anything.)
They won't take advantage of free volunteer help trying to help the GMs find the hackers, yet they post on the Maple site asking players "where are the hackers?"
As if the "professional Game Masters" don't have any clue where to look for hackers.
It all comes down to the profits. Effective anti-hacker measures cost them money, so no.
[quote=Gallade96]Must be terrible playing in your world In mine (chaos alliance), galloperas, and c-2 lab are empty.
As for jesters and crows, they empty out after ~1 weeks of a newly released class (2-3 weeks for aliens) [/quote]
The advantage to an underpopulated world
Also, I even notice hackers at jesters
i kill hackers
rush ftw
@Pavchka: Thanks
Evan hacker not a problem? The future henesys market place and many of the maps adjacent to it have been plagued for long time, then it faded a bit, but now there seem to be even more, DS, Mihile, I/L, Jett and the other pirates... it is unhealthy along with the flying in a spot in the map hackers that do "lucky shots" to every monster in map and vac pick everything too.
I train at Leafre. Or actually I did. The maps are full of hacking Evans. It's really no fun any more.
@UAHeroV: Wow, you look amazing.
[quote=UAHeroV]well where did you train when those places were filled before?[/quote]
You used to find a map there or share with someone, both of which are impossible when people are hacking.
PS: The precautions Nexon's taking are no use. I keep getting auto DCed when I'm in Future Henesys and killing things with my teleport (OHKO ftw), just because hackers teleport around, vaccing monsters and killing them with no delay. The hackers don't DC, but the legits do.
Well, go to the next map, at least in Bera the Evan hacker problem isn't that bad, and they get banned so yeah
well where did you train when those places were filled before?
