Question for people who use hired merchants How often do you get that one visitor who talks to your merchant and then gets genuinely upset that he/she is being ignored? I got that once where the guy said he was so insulted he wasn't going to buy the item... then he bought it... I wasn't online for it... some of the things left in hired merchant "hi" "yo" "hey there" "you there?" "Hey You there? Respond please" It's funny... 1) you're not even talking directly to a real person 2) you assumed that you were talking directly to a real person who is sitting there to respond to you LF> other hired merchant owner stories

Why is 2x such a big deal? I don't get why people make such a big deal out of 2x events, you could always just play twice as long. Same desired effect! It's not even that great. The game lags like crazy. The botters earn twice the mesos and spell traces. It encourages people to be up at midnight playing MapleStory when they should be getting wasted... Edit : There seems to be some confusion. And a lot of people thinking "Well it's twice as efficient" or something like that People sit around for more than the duration of 2x waiting for 2x, if you just do whatever you were going to do during 2x in that time frame then you'd have no need for 2x! Like when I would wait 8 hours for 2x to grind a link skill mule for 2 hours but I was on

A Guide to Elite Monster and Bosses Elite Monsters spawn after you kill a bunch of the regular mobs in that map. (You must be within the level range of that map's mobs as the attacker to spawn the elite monster/boss) Elite Monsters are bigger versions of the mobs in that map with more HP. Elite Bosses are a shadowy adventurer monster. Doesn't drop anything, just initiates bonus stage once killed. *Elite Monsters will disappear if you do not kill it fast enough The important part of Elite Monsters is that every attacker will get his/her own drops. If you attack an elite monster and someone else attacks an elite monster you will both get drops once it dies. You cannot see/loot the other person's drops and he/she cannot see/loot yours. Multipl

Cruelest hacker ever got me Today I got hacked on my main and the hacker stayed on my account for like 5 or so hours. This hacker, in addition to stealing most of my equips that were tradeable went one step further. He deleted all my link skill mules (heads up, item lock stuff on your link skill mules so they can't be deleted) then he took my tradeable equips on my main (dual blader). My links were lvl 3 for kanna(sorry i meant AB... it was like 3 a.m...), DA, DS, merc. And the absolute worst part is he stopped me from being able to even use my dual blader anymore... This is what my inventory looks like after he got through with it... I got the 500Mil from my shop which wasn't touched but I can't retrieve the equips from my shop... Now Fred

Anyone else miss Duey? He couldve saved me 2b The other day I needed to xfer but I have no friends so that was out of the question, So I moved my character to this one map and dropped the items and logged off into my other character. And.... It took so long (20 seconds) to relog that in those 20 seconds I forgot why I was relogging in the first place and I tabbed out of Maple to read Basil threads then about 5 minutes later I'm like "OMG MAH ITEMS" and I lost my 15% str reinforced gollux pendant(+3)... So my advice to you all is to stay focused :] Seriously I can't believe it's not implied - Separate accounts... - Scrolling my pendant - Forgot what I was doing So no storage. Yes I had some reason to be xferring. I just have a very

Random Prize Items in Cash Shop Are Unfair It's nice of Nexon to give us a method to get rare stuff but some people really shouldn't be blowing their money on NX not knowing what they're doing... Sometimes when these event items are around like mirrors, gold boxes, marvel, philosopher book, etc, I can see tons of stores in FM that sell things for a low price because the owner just spends their money (something they are capable of) to get items they don't know the price of... [I'd put a ss link here but basil blocks it...] Check Ch1FM16 of Bera to see someone who sold fafnir gun for 111,111,111 and spec goggles for 5,555,555.... Nowadays you can spend thousands of dollars to personally get equips and cubes for it and be as godly as anyone el
