Maplestory is not dying, it is already deceased

Pre-Big Bang private servers (I played one called DestinyMS for years... About 3 or 4 years) have given me the same experience as I've gotten in Reboot. It's most likely just what you make of it.

Oh you mean including the trade function completely broken almost immediately? I mean I'll be honest, I haven't touched anything MS related probably since 2012, 2014 if you include me logging onto just Omok and smega spam the "COME BACK TO US, HERE FREE NX" emails. Things haven't changed at all, the very architecture is broken, no matter what system, content, or whatever is provided, hackers run the game, point blank. You will not find a single problem like that in a private server, yet they regulate the same population pretty much. Funny how that works lmao.

I'm not sure the point you're trying to make. That you complain, but you're also social, so what I said is automatically wrong because of that? Or that you try socializing and you aren't getting the social experience you want out of MapleStory?

It's pretty clear he's complaining that the type of socialization he experiences is not organic with the content like it was when preparing goby/zakum/horntail. I mean honestly, you're saying "9/10 TIMES IT WAS THEIR FAULT", when someone contradicts your assertion it's suddenly "WHY AM I WRONG???". He's adding to the conversation as an example who actively tried to socialize, they're both opinions, it's not right or wrong.

I've always wondered why this entire forum is so fixated on arguing pre-big bang to post big bang... This game was "ruined" before big bang patch was even hit.

It died once the damage cap was increased to like 50m or whatever, that was post big bang believe it or not. The potential we had was at least manageable, although I don't agree with it. I mean I know you're probably confusing yourself by the retardation from basil and reddit but the criticisms/suggestions are fairly consistent. Rest assured none of them are "ROLL BACK TO BIG BANG".
