I'll bite. 'Tis a rare occasion that someone is able to actually stay on for an hour.

It would be a lot worse for Nexon to let the game continue as is if they fix the issue versus them rolling back a few days.

I wish.

Amount of people playing has no bearing on the necessity for a rollback.

Rule of thumb: If massive amounts of meso have not been generated and you call for a rollback, chances are you're a redneck.

Nexon has the power of a database on their side! Why the f'uck would they rollback when they can put as little effort as they want to "eliminate" duped items and still get profit through MTSing them? It just doesn't make sense, son.

That's what they said about the cake vs pie crashes.
Game goes on.
Not that I'm saying that a rollback isnt the best option for the them, just that they won't. Because according to them, duping items is "impossible" and I highly doubt most of the higher up employees even know what channel crashing's real purpose is

Yes because this has worked so well in the past Rolleyes

I'm assuming that was the joke, albeit a bad one.

If they choose not to rollback then whatever. Less effort I have to put into making money.

RayGun Wrote:its probably the work of one person, since they are taking regular 9 hour breaks to sleep lol. even as a hacker they still have good healthy sleeping patterns lolololol

if it were more than one person they would be able to take shifts and crash all 24 hours, boosting their profits from duping. Also the person is likely to in East Asia/ West Pacific Ocean area given the times it has been crashing


the crashes are probably going for a long time. Nexon probably will never find out how,

This is probably how the crashes will stop.
A) the duper will probably eventually find that he/she has had enough and wants to stop him/herself duping. However he/she cannot resist the thrill of it. He/She releases the method on a h@cking website and it is patched by nexon
B) the duper shares it with a few friends. the friends annoy him/her with excessive duping and/or take too much of the profit or they deflate the goods too much. the friends will probably not be as patient as the creator of the server crash, and will dump the duped goods on the market. Creator of the crash is annoyed and releases hack to preserve the value of his/her own duped goods.

My profile of the server crasher so far.
probably very patient and neat. short and skinny person, probably a male. played maplestory at some point. probably in a course at university doing computer science. Likely at a second tier university - not the top ranked ones but not a crap one.
Person is calm and neat and enjoys good regular sleeping breaks. Therefore probably looks neatly dressed, albeit a bit nerdily in appearance; probably wears glasses. In good health due to regular sleep. Face also probably free of acne due to regular sleep, probably has a small head if a male.

ok you can all go and citizen's arrest this person

Idk, judging by what I know about Takebacker and from what I read in that post, I'm thinking he might have been serious. Nexon does potentially have the power to remove those items... sadly they just suck at life.

EITHER WAY, not always super easy to tell sarcasm and jokes from serious posts Tongue

Yup.
And the setting up was all they did.

That is exactly what they did. They never did anything wrong. Only the hackers did something wrong and ruined the game.

Am i the only one that would love more than anything right now to sit in the room with "The Maple Team" as their "great" minds try to work out this shitstorm.

I'm right there with you. I wish I could shadow some employees or higher-ups to see what they do all day.

3 RULES OF ROBOTICS
THE FIRST LAW
A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
THROUGH INACTION, YOU SEE THAT?
SINCE NEXON IS OBVIOUSLY JUST AN AUTOMATED SYSTEM LIKE CLEVERBOT, THEY'RE VIOLATING THE 1ST LAW OF ROBOTICS
THE 1ST LAW IS SACROSANCT

"BILLIONS OF DUPED ITEMS EVERYWHERE AND WE DON'T KNOW WHAT'S CAUSING THE CRASHES!"
"Whatever, just take the game down for a few hours and hit the weekly "compensation 2x" button. Then, when the hackers get bored, we can pretend we fixed it and take action by banning account names we pull out of a hat. Biggrin"

I'm totally cereal. Anyway we should all show interst in speculating on who the crasher is. It will give him/her a thrill which he/she will seek more. Eventually he/she would want to correct the rumors or talk to us to revel in his/her fame. Its totally true - just look at the random dramas about serial killers which are on tv.

Nexon hasn't caused a single harm to a living human being yet.

I'm sure some little kid has broken his arm hitting the table when the servers crashed while he was on a boss run. Either that or broken a toe from kicking the computer after said scenario or something like it.

Foolish humans causing harm to themselves out of rage doesn't mean Nexon has harmed any single living human being.
