@fmonglobal: Lol...Back then nobody did things just because of the "value" it might bring in merching everything.
There were no cubes or potentials or pink scrolls or white scrolls or 20% scrolls or gimmicky stufffs like now, it was just find stuff, scroll it the best you could and play the game with it.
I scrolled my pan lids with 100% scrolls because I needed to use them to actually play the game, not to sell them.
(I'm talking about like 2008 here, when Maplestory was an MMORPG and people actually played it like that.)

Didn't 100% scrolls devalue equips?

This thread is something everybody forgot about...
So things like:
-Monster carnival
-Ludi maze
-Ludi pq codes
-HHG1
-Apple costume
-Kpq
-KS wars
-Statless chars
-Jesters
-Smuggling items out of pqs (still exists...)
-And a ton more answers here
Are bad answers since most older people would probably remember them

OT:
-Cake vs pie event
-One of the earliest attends (lunchbox one)
-Anything involving cody
-Agent event
-When warriors used to use their first job skills until 70
-Thieves using lucky seven until 70
-Maple Island colored WG quest
-When dojo could be done with multiple people
-Hunting redwhips and chaos scrolls at the drummer bunnies in ludi
-Buying chaos scrolls/other scrolls on MTS to sell
-Tracking for kpq

Trading wins is CPQ and the awkward moment when you reached level 51 and don't want to train/play anymore.

[quote=GameAddict209]The beauty of getting 1% / min at level 60.[/quote]

Speaking for me and others that play, ahem, oldschool pizza slices, this is something that I can guarantee is not even close to beautiful. Nexon may have made many mistakes, but making it easier to level is not one of them. People simply don't remember how painful it was back then, being as wistfully nostalgic as they are.

OT: A cordon is better if scrolled.

[quote=Omniscient1]Nah he's right. These threads pop up every single game and this is the only game where people cry so much about nostalgia. I don't even see this much talk about Vanilla WoW on there forums. It's cool to discuss it from time to time, but every single day a new thread pops up. Tha's kinda of silly. At least locate an old thread and post in there for spam sakes.[/quote]
You joy killers help make the community toxic. People have the right to talk about something they value a lot, esp if it played an important part in their childhood. This is a General Discussion of Maplestory, don't like it? Then buzz off.
