BasilMarket Chat Consensus 2017
Henlo, friends. I'm noticing a TON of activity on BasilMarket across its many different sections, and I'm curious to know who is still active and for how long you've been on the website for (i.e. when you created your account).
Here, I'll go first.
Hi, my name is Schokoshake and I have been on BasilMarket for 2,706 days, or about 7.4 years.
Don't be shy! Let us all know and own it, baby.

riiight....
@xylyls: Oh dang totally forgot that your ign is different on here. Sorry bout that XD
@helpingly: that account has been banned for years
OT : I've been around here since late 2008 but I've gotten probably 10-11 accounts banned so..... yeah.
2795 days... Dang, its been over 7 years...
I'm feeling nostalgic.
I made my account here around the time Sleepywood.net died, but rarely posted.
3938 days and i dont know why im here i never read or post anything where am i
@ktempo: Here ya go.
Help. I have Basilmarket as the first link in my favorites bar, but I haven't clicked on it in years.
Anyways, I have an email on an old Yahoo account for my original account to reset the password dated December 12, 2005, but I believe I signed up around mid-October.
So... about 4367 days (assuming mid-month).
I started playing in early September, 2005. Not that I have logged in for about two years, or seriously played in about eight.
Link- Is this how you post a link now? This is all different.
@powerguy121: You need some sort of medal or something. Bravo
Days: 4355
yep.
About 4045 days or 11 years. Lurked Basil for a year before I created an account.
The fact that you said basilmarket has a "ton" of activity makes me believe without a doubt that you are completely sarcastic.
Don't remember how long I've been here because acc got deleted, but I've been in accounts since 2012.
My bro used to use basil for auctions, I ended up using his account rarely (never really had anything of value back then), but once he quit I forgot his pw, so I just lurked for like 5 years.
I'm ZombieOverlord and I've been maplestory-sober for over 7 years.
2197 days so about 6 years BUT I had several accounts for about a year beforehand so yeah about 7 years. I joined basil cuz I started playing MS again with my friend in high school and she told me about basil.
i was here since the yeti. +1 if u know wat im talkin about
@readers: Truthfully, since coming back to Maple a week ago, that subreddit has actually been the most helpful for finding out up-to-date information LOL.
And it's not "ton" but "TON" to capture the massive understatement I'm making!
Given you've got an All-Beginner Zakum run from 2009, I can gather the age from that alone!
@schokoshake: Given the age of this website, and the age of the game, there are mostly veterans here. Many of the newer players of MS are more likely going to be in the subreddit for MapleStory in Reddit.
Also, this "ton" of activity on BasilMarket you speak of is barely anything compared to the website's heyday, although you probably know that at this point - so that alone should give you an idea of who is left, given that the website hasn't been able to attract in new members to replace those who have decided to leave.
On a side-note: my account's age isn't really representative of how long I've been on this site, ever since Basil did that account wipe a while back.
@ecarina: WHAT?! You made an account here to overrule some identity theft?! Now that's wild.
Also, it seems like it's just veterans left here according to this short census
1955 days old, so about 5.3 years.
I made the account originally because some guy added my characters to his profile and I didn't want anyone impersonating me.
This account is only 1000 days old or so, but I remember having an account prior to this one that I lost the password for. I think that one was about twice as old as this one.
