I don't want to sound elitist but imo Southperry is probably the upper community of MapleStory and it is usually here that most things even get done. Extractions, damage charts, skill builds, and actual discussion of what goes on in the game: it's all happening in Southperry.
That said, I can think of no other fan site that truly loves the game their site is based on. We are definitely not a bunch of haters. Now, you could say that most users heavily criticize Nexon and some swear not to play Maple ever, but most of them still participate in Maple related discussion. The reality is that most have played Maple at some point and we loved it at some point. Southperry is a place for users of new and old, those who still care about Maple, to give ther opinion and participate in discussion usually about steps to making the game better.
Despite not playing, people are still interested in what's happening and what Nexon is up to. Idk... to me, that's pretty admirable. If I was Nexon, I would be humbled by the community here that still pays attention to them this much despite what they do and what they have done.
The thing I disliked about Basil was that the community is somewhat detached with their game and at times I find it pointless to go in the General section. Threads are usually maple related but they involve the player more so than the game. I may be overstepping a bit but that's somewhat my general feeling with basil.
In the one year I have been a member, Southperry has provided a place for me to flood my thoughts on the game and be met with meaningful discussion. What prompted me to join was the community and a few quality people I love to see posting. Quite happy with the community and I'm hoping it continues to thrive.
