Crafted cubes have never been affected by miracle time

It was finally admitted by Artasi [url=http://forum2.nexon.net/showthread.php?1395971-Miracle-Time-does-not-apply-to-in-game-cubes&p=11592132&viewfull=1#post11592132]here[/url].

Thoughts?

Probably not, those people hardly ever check any kind of forum.

The fact that there are people attacking him is mindboggling.

People have to stop killing the messenger for crying out loud.

Some people never heard of the phrase "Don't shoot the messenger".

At least Artasi is trying to do something. Once a business starts scamming their customers, the truth hurts when it does come out. Nexon is just putting more pressure on their employees than they have to because lies can only take you so far. If main executives decide to be greedy, it's as good as letting this game die. I wish Artasi the best of luck because he's always been one of the main people managing the community and has been doing a good job at it. Resurrecting this game will be a hard task indeed.

Ouch.[/quote]

SixthExtinction sounds like a loser.
Blaming Artasi for something that isn't his fault and then getting mad for telling us the truth.

And this is why Artasi is really good, most other people would have done exactly that.

False comparison.

It's possible the people that put up the notices about it honestly didn't know.|
I seriously doubt that it was intentional. If they did intentionally lie about it, they'd never allow that information out.

[quote=aznsoldi3r]So to clarify: master/meister don't work, but red/black/bonus potential cubes do? Cause if they do, would reward shop cubes be affected by miracle time? Or is it strictly only the red/black/bonus potential from the cash shop and not rewards shop?[/quote]

Reward shop cubes work, only crafted cubes are excluded and have always been excluded, just they are a bit over a year late letting people know.

Who knows how much money people spent on those in all the previous miracle times since crafted cubes came out.

In other words.. Nexon doesn't know how their own game works and probably had the only employee who wasn't a monkey dig through the code to find this out...

Not even remotely surprised. This is laughable.

They should remove those cubes from [url=http://maplestory.nexon.net/guides/game-play/systems/00HfA/miracle-times]this page[/url] as well.

That's what you get for trying to follow the ToS and not buy NX. I guess NX rates will continue to climb.

Yeah people should appreciate Artasi more, if it wasn't for him I'm sure the MS team would've kept that info just to avoid a PR mess and let more people waste their cubes.

I really love that dude in the forums, apperantly he is the only Nexon emplyee who does SOME WORK.
I mean, sure, Nexon in general is kinda... eh..
But this Artasi guy, he's answering questions, he's giving us answers. he's providing useful information, and he's telling us what's going on, instead of leaving us in the dark.

Even if he bears bad news, I LOVE HIM. I think he should get more respect.
It takes a lot of courage to be the guy to check things up for the players, and then come back with the bad news, bluntly, and explain the situation.
Is there a way to recommend about him? or like, give a thank you letter? he deserves one.

The fact that past Miracle Time ad's (most recent) said they were affected is BS and got peoples hopes up. That really sucks. I don't craft in-game cubes but I know friends who have been slaving and buying lots of supplies and this is a real bummer...

For the lazy man's Basiler, who don't want to move out of Basilmarket to read something. And I quote.

Hi all,

I've been informed that these cubes are [B]not[/B] affected by Double Miracle Time. This would be indicative of why the note for Double Miracle Time specifically states Black, Red, and Potential.

I have also been informed that previously, we thought the system such that it affected Master and Meister Cubes as well as Red, Black, and Potential. However, new information indicates this is not the case and has never been the case for this event.

If I remember correctly, there have been statements made in the past that this event did affect those cubes, but the new information we have received tells us that we were incorrect in making that statement, and the rates for those cubes were never affected by Double Miracle Time.

Apologies to all those inconvenienced by this information.
