[quote=ImSlade]@Bloo2: He's not really suicidal you fool, it was just a quick way for her to say yes on letting him play. Also, I was hardly being serious. But that clown actually tried it. [/quote]

I wasn't really pointing towards his suicidal actions but the other actions such as "gave her the silent treatment for 3 days and just called her names whenever she tried to speak to me". I mean it's your mother for freaks sake, don't treat her like a dog.

@wassiem1998, you could pay her to play. Do you work?
(Rewritten your sentence. Didn't change the meaning.)
[/quote]

I'd doubt that would work. His/her mother is already smart enough to change the subject when they were talking about this. Bribing her would make her feel that he/she is addicted.

[quote=ISmileI]
@wassiem1998, if you're doing poorly in school then your mom has a good reason as to why she wants you to quit and maybe if you bring up your grades and prove to her that you can maintain good grades, she'll let you play again.
If this is not the case then tell us a reason why she wants you to quit and maybe it will be a lot easier for people to give you helpful tips.
[/quote]

Finally someone else in Basil who could type in good English.
He/she once remarked his grades are as high as 94 marks. (Excluding Hebrew.)
So maybe encourage him to work on his Hebrew may work? Maybe also encourage him to improve his Arabic?

[quote=wassiem1998]
I like playing MapleStory because I have a lot of friends in the game.
@wanton, my grades are in the 90+ range.
My average is a 94% and my lowest subject is a B+ in Arabic.
[b]And a 55% in Hebrew, but that doesn't count because I can't speak it. I came into the school in the 8th grade and they've been learning it since 1st grade.[/b]
[b]My dad doesn't care about what I get with the Hebrew subject counted.[/b]
[b]He makes me calculate my average without it.[/b]

[quote=wassiem1998]@questlqy:
I asked her why I can't play MapleStory and she said that it's bad for me, and then changed the subject every time I asked.
And yes, I did type some of the comments on my mobile device.
I've been using Basil in the past month.
What games do you recommend me to play?[/quote]

[quote=wassiem1998]I already tried that and gave her the silent treatment for 3 days. I called her names whenever she tried to speak to me.[/quote]

For my second quote, I did not add the name of the Basiler as he/she has already broken one of the [url=http://www.basilmarket.com/show/rules]rules[/url].
Rule #4: Discussions of activities that are illegal in the United States of America are strictly forbidden. (Suicide)
So if I were to quote him, then that post would be part of my post and I will be suspended as well.

Okay, it seems that your mother have good ways to evade your question. She must be a clever person, but she might be afraid to accept the fact that MapleStory is not a harmful game. In fact, you might learn a thing or two about trading in there, as you need money for potions. So what do you do? Of course, do some trading. Looking from your current situation, you might not be able to communicate with your mother after all. So let's not pester her until she is happy, then you try talking to her again.
I would like to recommend you to play some games. However, please do note these are recommendations. To play or not to play these games, your choice.

[b]Game Recommendations (not Advertisements)[/b]

[b]I'd guess I might be in the risk of getting suspended for this, but I just hope the moderators can understand that these are recommendations and not advertisements.[/b]

[b][Computer] RuneScape[/b]
No hate comments about this please. I know some Basilers might have played this game when it was developing too fast. But sometimes I think they are developing at a right way. I enjoyed playing this game a lot.

[b][Mobile] I Love Coffee (requires LINE and Internet)[/b]
Okay, let's just say I recommend this game is because I am personally a fan of coffee. But yeah, you get to control staff and perform stuff. You do cafe stuff. That's cool.

[b]Other things to do during the holidays[/b]

[b]Do some revision on the past or future topics.[/b] Okay, I know this sounds stupid, but you have to do some studying in order to continue your good grades. If you think you have [b]exactly nothing[/b] to improve on the current subjects which are now counted to be your average, try to improve your Hebrew (you said in your previous post you only got 55 marks for Hebrew. I currently understand like three languages - English, Chinese and Malay, but I do wish to speak in Korean and Japanese in the future.

[b]Try watching anime or reading manga.[/b] Manga are comics you can read. Anime are animated shows based on some manga. [b]You can also try to improve your drawing.[/b] [b]NO SEXUALLY EXPLICIT CONTENT, PLEASE.[/b]

[b]Do something meaningful.[/b] One example is bringing your mother out for a walk in the park. [b](But please don't talk about this subject that time. Your mother might think you are "buying" her.)[/b] Another example is doing something for the charity. Yeah, that would be nice. [b]Throw a party.[/b] You can bond relationships with your friends and your family. Yeah, that would be also something meaningful.

[b]DO NOTE THAT THOSE LISTS ARE NOT LIMITED. BUT PLEASE, DO SOMETHING GOOD, NOT SOMETHING BAD.[/b]

Best of luck for you.

My grades are good. I get A and A+ on most of my subjects. My average is a 94%. (That's good for the school I'm in as it's a really hard one.)
My English is good compared to where I live and trust me, it is.
She told me I can do anything I want on the computer for as long as I want, but I can't play MapleStory.
I tried a lot of alternatives (Facebook... I tried playing some other games, but I didn't like them much.)
I want to play MapleStory because I know the concept of the game. I already have a lot on my account, a lot of friends and that I really have fun when I'm playing.[/quote]

(Did some spelling and grammar corrections here and there.)
Sorry for the late reply.
Okay, so your mother says that you can do anything you want on the computer for as long as you want... except MapleStory. You might want to ask her on what she has against the game. If you really want to solve the problem and get yourself in the game again, you have to communicate with her. And if that doesn't work, you might want to find another game which you really have fun to and has approval from your mother. Change doesn't hurt a lot. Really, it doesn't. You might have to accept the fact that your mother doesn't allow you to play MapleStory. Another thing I have to talk to you about is that you might not be comfortable with Facebook. Maybe you can try socializing using Basil? The Basil community is happy to listen to your words, as long as you abide to the [url=http://www.basilmarket.com/show/rules]rules[/url]. Don't be sad if you are forced into changing into another game.
(And you do have to improve on typing in proper English if you want to prove you're smart. Were you using your mobile device to type this? Anyways, if you do use the computer, practice typing in Microsoft Word.)
Wish you all the best.

I have a hard time believing any MMORPG, especially one made by Nexon, requires any amount of skill other than the ability to sit infront of the computer mindlessly. At most I can see timing tricks and gimicks, and at that probably limited too 1 or 2 classes.

[quote=xsupakoreanx]dude i have spent so much money on maple its really sad that i put so much time into that. i kinda regret spending so much, and i just realize its not even that fun anymore. its get to level 100, then grind on crocks and bearwolves at lhc for the rest of your lives. and spend countless amounts of cash on weapons and gear that doesn't even exist in real life. better stuff is out there in the real world. gaming is a leisure, but don't put your life into it like maple. its fun, but so time consuming and kills your wallet.[/quote]

as i said before
i never spent money on NX and i never will
and i just play maple when im bored or have nothing else to do
and i offered her a deal of just 1 hour of maple a day and she said no

@wassiem1998

Firstly, what do you mean by having good grades? Having an A in all subjects you take? If you do, yeah that's cool. No? Just study and eventually you can get there.

Secondly, I think your mother might be afraid that your spelling might be influenced. As MapleStory originated from Korea, then when translated into English there are a few spelling errors (or what people call "typos&quot. And I can see that your spelling might need a bit of practice... from your last post, the spelling errors you made were: wat = what, srsly = seriously, difrent = different, doesnt = doesn't, im = I'm... (The spelling checker I'm using right now is from Google Chrome.) Oh, and you could made some grammar mistakes.

Thirdly, you got to understand mothers. Even if you are thirty, forty, or even fifty, you are still that little baby who has been born in her eyes. They do that because they love you. Playing the computer might be harmful to those eyes. Staying up late is not a good habit either as it is harmful to your health. You could meet strangers on the Internet. (But Basil has a bit of shield over that.) You might try negotiating with her that you wish you could be treated differently. Or just understand her and accept her for who she is. If you think you have been abused, you have the right to evade her. However, do understand that in Africa there are many who don't have mothers. You should be happy and proud of yourself having one. We usually take too much for granted.

Fourthly, try a better alternative to MapleStory. Like Facebook or Twitter. You could chat with some friends you have in school. Or maybe chat with some neighbors over those social media.

Fifthly, try to tell her why you really wish to keep on playing the game. Tell her how much that was for you. (But not to an extent to make your mother think you're addicted.)

You can quote me if you want to if you could share a bit more about the situation between you and your mother. (Please don't be too explicit, it's against the [url=http://www.basilmarket.com/show/rules]rules[/url].)

Say: I quit maple already. I have a (_add a word_) project to do with my friends so I need my pc.
She say: either a : Yes... cool go or She Say: You wanna play behind my back?
If she think something is wrong you better just buy a flash drive or usb and then save maplestory into the flash drive
and play it at another person house. Then if she ask about Maplestory just show her on ur files.
