Maplestory worth returning to?

Hello, I was hacked in September, and I was wondering is Maple worth coming back to? I can most likely more than easily make back what I lost, but is it worth going through the effort? Thanks in advance ~

[quote=Gazorcoop]Too many hackers. Many many many people who are "creating the same items over and over" (dooooplicating) and re-selling the items at super high prices.

Anybody with money can have lots in this game. Everything is about having unique and legendary items at first, dooooplicating them, and selling them in bulk for NX/mesos/real life cash on illegitimate websites.

.

Trust me on this. I started this game fresh with my girlfriend (she has not played it since 2006, and I have not since 2009). It was fun until we hit around level 100. By then, we realized that most of the game requires you to have a large sum of mesos and cash in order to do well. You cannot really have fun, because the conventional way to make money in the game has been destroyed. There is absolutely no way to make enough to fund your character in order to reach the areas of play meant for your level, or even 30 levels below you (if you are high leveled)[/quote]

1) you can still merch (i do it)
2) you can buy nx and sell it to friends
3) your not supposed to really have fun training (unless your playing guild wars 2)
4) socialize more
5)train in pqs
6)As you level, money comes easier and easier when you can start going on boss runs w/ guilds and stuff + doing surveys for it helps too

[quote=tips1660]jett/phantom are coming out and from your basil char, buccs are getting a revamp soon (though jett seems to have the revamped skills in advance) so you might find that interesting. Duping has gotten to a new low (and thats a good thing, not as many dupes going around) and nexon actually seems to have picked up its customer service, so for NOW i would actually say give it a shot. Don't listen to these haters f3. Most of basil hates on nexon even though they're actually doing a decent job now.[/quote]

amen brother

Entire ten-channel blocks will be filled with vachacking botters, rendering maps utterly unusable for normal people, and the GMs won't do diddly squat. Meanwhile, DCs rain down upon our connections like a gentle storm of bullets, while whether by dint of wealth or wealthless fortune, said botters still remain online.

...but if you feel like playing, you'll play, ruination or no

If you want to buy nx then I prefer you come back. But in my opinion buying is nx is obsolete so... ya.

^ That's the first compliment to Nexon I've heard in so long. Well before I quit, I had a little train-a-holic stage where I would just town, buy 4,000 pots, and train day and night lol. How's LHC? Did they ever nerf it or whatevs?

[quote=penguinslol2]Depends. Do you enjoy playing maple? If so, then yes.[/quote]

Pretty much this.
If you liked maple come back.
However if you disliked it then explain your "reasons" and we'll tell you if something has been done of those "reasons".
