What made you want to become a Pirate? - Xephia - 2009-03-31
Simple question. What made you want to become a Pirate?
For me, when I first heard there was a new class, I decided to check it out on YouTube. I saw some low leveled Gunslinger using a gun. Didn't seem all too appealing to me. Especially since at this time my overall image of pirates were the stereotypical doofus' showed in cartoons, and I probably didn't see Pirates of the Carribean yet.
Eventually I learned of Infighters and how they worked. I was surprized they used their fists, as I remember in the old days of MS I said how fighters should use their fists and not swords as a small joke. Eventually after watching some YouTube vids I grew to like Infighters more and more, including Gunslingers too. Since I wasn't playing Maple Story at all at the time, I told myself if I ever started playing MS seriously again, I'd make a Pirate. The fact that some people were arguing that Pirates sucked made me like them even more, since I was getting more of a "unique" feel from it.
Alas I did, even though I chose to wait a few months after the release to avoid drastically overpriced items and crowded maps from the obvious to-be fad.
How about you?

I saw that awesome Float (Wings) video with that awesome (Korean?) music that prompted me to make a Gunslinger.

I wanted to quit my lolshad and make a new character (Ranged). Then saw all the hints Pirates were coming soon, so made a Gunslinger.
WHATaStory

lol @ Rusty.
Well, after quitting Global Maple and then roaming around lolp.servers for 6 months, I finally decided to return to Japanese Maple in mid-June in '08. It turned out that I rejoined JMS at the perfect time, as Nexon JP was getting ready to release Pirates one month later. So, I moved to Keyaki, where the English community was, and made a cleric to build up at least some potion funds. Then, on July 30th, Nexon JP released Pirates and I made one. Now here I am, a level 137 Viper in Keyaki, JMS.

Every character I've played up until now has been ranged. I felt like a change. I loved how I trained in my 9x with my ranger: at gobis, where you had to use all of your skills (or at least most of them) to train the most efficiently and had to keep on your toes while training. Then I got to 4th and it's just spamming hurricane at newties... and I died a little on the inside.
ALSO, PIRATES CAN GO SUPER SAIYAN AND HAVE SUPER PIRATEY EQUIPS AND GET TO SAY ARRRRRRRRR!
Yeah. Mostly the latter though.

err needed something that had higher HP than bowmasters at the smae level. 136 levels of LOLHP takes a toll on a guy. And i liked the dragon =P
Sliger was solely for float and recoil lol

This describes me.
I also wanted something to get me back into MS after quitting my BM at level 123. I was overjoyed to find a ranged class that actually required some skill to play.

hit a lvling drag with my ranger, where 10% an hour was horrific for me. So i decided to make a new char, and a new class just screamed play me @-a. And i found it fun coming up with a practical equips guide.

I saw one of Shrapnel's videos, and being the adventurous person that I am, I decided that I would try and make a Gunslinger.

Because nothing is more manly than punching monsters in the face.
Nothing.

I always hoped there would someday be a class in Maplestory that allowed us to shoot things.

I think what he means is shoot things with guns
I made a pirate because it was new I guess - and I felt like moving from my Hero.
