While I am not part of this group you describe, the more I think about it, the more accurate this statement becomes. You're getting a lot of flak for the statements, but it's probably for the part I omitted being received as an insult or contrary to how the people you describe feel.
Let's take No-Boom AEE or 25% Boss Nebulite as an example, I'd say less than 5% of Maplestory players can actually afford them so that immediately axes those from impacting them. Duplicated mesos? This is much more impactful to the casual player but not necessarily game breaking for them, the Empress armor, etc. they are striving for probably isn't going to inflate much. Hackers aren't buying out stores just to buy them out, are they? These casual players aren't worried about getting perfect Tyrants or beating Hell Gollux or Normal Magnus, they would be happy just successfully finishing a Grosso Polpo.
However, it is terribly unfair to folks in the upper echelon of the game with Enhanced Tyrants and thriving businesses. This severely depreciates their net worth, no doubt about that. What are my Boss Nebulites and No-Boom AEE worth when there are potentially thousands floating around? My mesos?
Nexon also should have rolled back, that is undoubted in my mind. The people they should be worried about, NX heavy players, are the ones being most affected by this. The same people that downvoted YennoX will likely agree, as much as the people who upvoted will disagree with selective catering, but Nexon cannot choose now to be the arbiter of the "big tent," looking out for all Maplers when truthfully, as YennoX is probably trying to state, this devastatingly affects only a relatively few number of people. Look up the term relatively and think about it before jumping the gun on the word "few".
I think I've adequately peeved both sides this time, pomegranates from the "rich and powerful" for the first half, pomegranates from the "poor-to-middle class and casual" for the second half. I am interested in the result.
