Not sure why people claim the game is dying - it isn't. Far from it, actually, it's still peaking in fact...

If you care about becoming pro, then go play WoW instead of a single button game. Nobody thinks it is a "PRO" or gives a slight respect to you for having higher numbers in this p2w game.

This game is all about money or spending no life

I agree 100%.
Maple is about FUN, not range, or numbers.
And yet however.... I still need someone to remind me that once in a few months. Because lets be honest here, who wouldn't want to be Godly if the oppurtunity was given to him?

Each time I get reminded that Maple is about fun I have the best time on it, because I just stop caring about other stuff. Sometimes being strong is fun, but if you can't do that, have fun in other ways =3

Anyways this thread went completely off topic

@microcras: Thank you. I'm planning on taking my big pharm test next month!

Yes, we all come from different walks of life but I enjoy how the game puts us all together so we can all have fun.

[quote=CherryTigers]This is correct. People always seem [b]amazed[/b] that we didn't spend a single dollar in the game but the reality of it is we both paid a price that was even bigger; time. If we spent that same amount of time working a minimum wage job to fund our game, we would be volumes stronger (although itay is already.... beyond godly) That being said, we both are playing a game and we had lots of fun building ourselves up so I have no regrets with the amount of time I spent. It wasn't that much tbh actually...

I don't consider it an accomplishment for myself to spend $0 on the game. Other people only see the numbers, but I personally see it as more of a way to make the game more interesting for myself. I find this to be similar to people who play Pokemon vs playing a Nuzlocke. They lose and have to lose their pokemon. I lose and miss opportunities such as the permanent hyper teleport rock or the most recent: I missed the opportunity to horde lots of prime scrolls from the 9th anniversary event.

I didn't spend money on the game because I didn't want to push extra resources to myself. I picture myself as a scavenger in that sense that I have to earn the money in order to spend it. If I miss an opportunity, I just got to make due with what I have and find a different way to achieve my goal. [/quote]

Oh and btw gl on ur pharmacy stuff , what he says is correct, but there are ppl who can't get a job yet either becuz they don't have time, too young, or can't find one, and some ppl would use their free time in maple and save their money instead of using their free time to work and get money and using it on maplestory becuz lets get real, most jobs are not as fun, even if you enjoy what you're doing mostly, as something you really like such as maybe maple

[quote=Biccy15754]@JasonMan bear in mind, strong players like CherryTigers and itay have spent years and dedicated vast amounts of time to playing this game. Time is their resource, and for other players, having a job and spending money is their resource. As long as you're enjoying the game though, it shouldn't matter how you play, only how you enjoy playing it.[/quote]

You don't have to pay any NX to be a pro -_-
Hell the strongest player in GMS (I think @itay07734 is the strongest...) never paid a single dime[/quote]

he paid in time=money

Then prob he played this game like no life since it was released. That's another possibility

[quote=Thespiderexe]Lol who cares about range if you want to be pro in a dieing game give nexon some $$$$ or give your soul.
OT:get to lvl 200 then worry about range[/quote]

That's what I am going to do.

Good point xP

Range doesn't matter all that matters is:

((L*D)+(W/G))/(A^2)
Length times Diameter plus Weight over Girth divided by Angle of the tip squared

You're a xenon.
