Nexon really dropped the ball on this event

Neat chairs: Check.

Appreciation of long-time Maplers: Notably absent.

[url=http://orangemushroom.wordpress.com/2013/04/24/kms-ver-1-2-193-maplestorys-10th-anniversary/]This[/url] is what KMS' recent anniversary looked like. Where I'm pulling my point from is that Maplers were given a medal denoting their years of play and one of the central event mechanics was difficulty adjusted based on the lifetime of your account (I.E., points you gained for one aspect of the anniversary were multiplied by your years of play - and the rewards for achieving different tiers of points were pretty good).

I'm kind of surprised that GMS left that out, but they're not as keen on making players happy now as they were in previous years.

Your thoughts?

Why should you be embarrassed? The only people that will see how long you've played are other people that are playing the same game as you. And really, if you don't know them, why does it bother you? If we get a similar thing for our 10th anniversary, I'd gladly wear my 9 year thing with pride.

But the question remains....
Do we get +10 attack weapon scrolls?
I cannot wait to see what KMS cooks up for 11th cause our 10th Anniversary will be well deserving for what ever they're up [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8T6a9iQ-ig&list=UUCJsgpL8MufdRMUxjm2zKHQ]to...[/url]

Nexon dropped the ball on this game a long time ago.
I completely forgot about this years anniversary. The game is non-stop events, there's no excitement or anything, just more P2W-padding and disappointment.

This is true. Although, I really wouldn't mind if they made a point to celebrate long-time Maplers with all anniversary events. Not as the primary focus of the event, of course.

I'm happy they left some events out.
