So how is Maplestory? Well, its been a very long time since I've been here, I'd say a little over a year. Although I would love to say I quit and move on, I haven't really officially 'quit' per say, and though i'm not very tempted to come back, I kinda wanted to see how things are doing or if they've gotten "better" so to speak since I last played. So, here are a few questions... 1. Is it still undeniably pay to win? (I'm expecting this to be a yes, so this really won't influence me much, but hey, maybe stuff has changed) 2. Is the game still considered to be at a low point in population? The last time I played, although people were overstating saying the game is dead, it was certainly at a low point with players online which made
What are you or will you major in? Hey basilers! Just a bit of curiosity that sparked in me. As far as I know, many basilers are either in high school or college. Seeing as such, I was wondering what you guys want to or actually are majoring in in college. Maybe as a bonus, you could add why you picked that major! I'll start! I am planning on going into engineering, most likely aerospace, due to my fascination with flying, planes, space, etc, and my love for maths and sciences.
Time for some fun with Basilmarket Well, Basilmarket, i'm bored, and don't really want to finish my summer reading at the moment. So, instead, lets play a little game! Now, its no doubt that Basilers are smart (that is not even sarcasm, i'm serious. From what I've seen on this site, some of the people are extremely intelligent.) So, let's see if you can crack the code below. Now, I tried to make it not too easy, but not too hard either. I'm actually quite interested in whether it will be solved quickly or if it will be solved at all. Who knows, maybe if it does get solved i'll have to think up of a harder one! But, besides the point, if you think you have solved the code below, post what you think it is in the comments. I will tell you if y
Murgoth dungeon Is anybody else really bad/unlucky at this or is it just me? :~(
Demon Avenger rebalance Advanced desperado mastery: Attack boost increased from 30 to 50 Shield chasing now boosts exceed: moonlight slash damage by 30% Maple warrior now passively gives 15% hp Thoughts? I'm looking forward to this, it will be give us a nice boost. I'm also happy that maple warrior finally isn't useless to us anymore! We will be getting this slight rebalance in the next update. If you're curious, I got the info from orangemushroom's blog.
Share your unlucky stories So just now, I tried scrolling an empress desperado for my Demon Avenger with those 60% +5/6 attack scrolls from the event shop. I used 8 scrolls. Surely even if I was unlucky, at least some would work, right? Wrong: ABSOLUTELY NONE of the 8 60% scrolls I used work. And now, needless to say, i'm pretty pissed. So, does anyone else have some unlucky story that might make me feel better?
What do you enjoy / What made you happy today on maplestory? Well, I just recently made a comment bringing up how there is nothing really fun to do on ms anymore, and how it is quite boring. Then I realized, there's a whole lot of nostalgia threads or threads about ms is boring or stale, and I thought, lets change things up for once. Now, keeping in mind I realize this thread could fail with sarcastic commenters and whatnot, I think most of us realize maplestory is not the best of games anymore. However, let's try and all brighten up the game by sharing sincere recent experiences that made you happy on maplestory, or things you appreciate and enjoy about CURRENT maplestory =D
How many of you still actually play maplestory? Now this seems like a stupid question: everyone in the General Maplestory section plays Maplestory! Well, many people, including myself, still log in from day to day, possibly everyday, but merely afk all day, which I would not really consider actually playing the game. I wandered around today for about 20 minutes, and it took me a long time to find somebody that wasn't just sitting in a town like Leafre or Henesys, and was actually moving or talking. So that made me wonder, although there are still lots of people on Maplestory, how many of can you say you actually play the game and kill bosses and train, etc. Otherwise, how many of you log on just to afk or talk with friends and do nothing el
Thoughts on sports fans? Prologue: Well, my cousin were recently over at my house, and they are quite avid fans. I would by no means say they were crazy, but they screamed at every goal that was scored in the hockey game they were watching. Now don't get me wrong, I enjoy watching certain sports from time to time, but I never get so worked up over a certain team or anything. This made me interested, so I googled crazy sports fans later that night and saw some pretty crazy things. Part with actual questions: So this made me want to hear your opinions on sports fans and how far some go. Some people treat a team as if it is a god, and they treat the sport as if it is religion. So a few questions I wanted to ask would be: How far do you think s
Favorite unsolved mysteries/conspiracies? In the world we live in, there are a ton of conspiracies and mysteries that haven't been solved, and, I don't know about you guys, but I really enjoy reading about them and thinking about them. So, basil, I wanted to ask you guys what your favorite / weirdest mysteries you've ever heard of were, if you have any. This is probably a bad idea because its basilmarket, so ill probably get lots of troll answers, but hey, maybe ill get a few that actually turn about to be legit and interesting. As for me, my two favorites would probably be the dyatlov pass incident and the voynich manuscript. Probably the voynich manuscript more so since there are way less explanations for it, and nobody knows what the hel
