General

Please jump onto this proposal

Recently some very nice people in Scania were banned for possession of arcane weapons and I do sinseriously feel bad for them so if you guys could possibly support and ask Nexon to just kindly remove the items it would be greatly appreciated. Down below I will put the link... I don't really know whats its for but yeah here. http://forums.maplestory.nexon.net/discussion/11034/a-proposal-that-needs-your-support/p1

I just think full on perma ban for everyone who possessed the weapon even for 3 mins was way too harsh... the deletion of all arcane weapons would been a just punishment cuz all of them would've got GOT for their money and taught a nice lesson.

@gekkegerrit: It's not disallowed, it just hasn't been out long enough to kill for the coins to afford a weapon, so to have one shows you exploited it or something which leaded to that guy being banned. (except according to him he had bought it)

Why is it not allowed to sell Arcane weapons ? (i dont have a player that can levelwise train there but i am just curious). How much mesos did they go for on fm ? Also, just out of curiousity.

Lucid hasn't been out long enough to get a weapon. Why would anyone buy an obviously exploited item?... and then proceed to scroll, cube, and use the item... People who were banned deserved it.

Yes, they are nice people, and of course you want to help out your friends. But portraying them as completely innocent is the main problem here; it is difficult to gain supporters when the victims probably have thorough knowledge about the game, seeing that they can afford endgame equipment. AKA they are not oblivious to the consequences of their actions.

"Can people get so powerful and rich in-game, legitimately, and still remain so willfully ignorant of the mechanics of the new boss that they didn't know Lucid hadn't been out long enough for anyone to get her equipment legitimately?
Can anyone play this game for so many years and still be unaware that hackers always beat bosses first?
Can people be major merchants in their server and not know who the legit boss runners are and who are hackers?" -Akradian

This thread is a nice read.

I don't think solely buying the weapons should be a bannable offense. Suspension, yes, deletion, yes. Did they participate in the exploit? How did the exploit work in the first place?

Well, I don't really know. Good luck to the good people.

And @tariq , they kept trying to lowball you. Isn't it annoying and perhaps some kind of karmic justice for their greed?

Oh well, I don't really know what to think of it.

@beefly: They had some unique, creative writing styles. ashleyattacked practiced and eternalmemory I think it is just her natural writing.

I don't know if it would be worth it to try hard and mimic it. You could draw more, though.

So you acting like they are innocent and didn't know these are exploited/hacked item. They knew it, they did it, and yes- it against the ToS.

@hualicious: Oh yeah I got banned... I wasn't really any of their friends lol one of the people is actually trying to CB me on Paypal... HA good luck to them with that... I shouldn't have said people because I genuinely only feel bad for Water. You'd be amazed how many of those people were low-balling me and trying to get the cheapest price possible when I was already selling them super duper cheap.

The problem is that you started this with the phrase very nice people. They don't exist in maple and certainly don't exist on the internet.

It's locked the thread. I guess @tariq you weren't just a seller but their friends, right?

I also heard you got banned.

I think it's also hard for any random players to give any support in this issue. It can be lies, and or incomplete which I cannot support.

However if more details are revealed we can review it and discuss about this matter.

@tariq:

I don't care if you think I'm cool or not.
I don't change my opinions to please other people.

I think there's more to this. Even if we can take at face-value that what they're saying is true, as someone who had played the game for a while and who has been well aware of many various exploits and what looks legitimate and what doesn't, I feel like the responsibility also lies with the player to also do their research and to understand what looks and what doesn't look suspicious. This is especially the case if you're at that level where you can buy and use Arcane Weapons, especially if Arcane Weapons themselves have not been legitimately acquired as of yet.

@littletlk: I used to think you were pretty cool with the whole perma beginner niche... yikes was I wrong. Everytime I see you post its on some negative vibe and its gross tbh.
As the person who sold those weapons I feel bad for all of the people who got banned and would love to see them get unbanned ^_^

Got what they deserved. Don't act innocent.
And that thread is locked and for good reason.
