The main reason Korea Maplestory is more popular than Global Maplestory

Another key point is their stable economy, with no hackers varying prices and les people able to control parts of the economy makes a better economy for every player, with so many players it's a lot diferent to balance uptates, itens and things like dailyes that gives mesos compared to GMS overall, that manly depended on itens to get money since any mesos you got from monsters/etc would be almost worthless, almost removing a part of every word/server in KMS, dailyes, that goes beyong than just RP that aren't that effective alone or symbols that are a must overall.

KMS will never truly change until Korea itself change, or maybe Nexon see profit and a better game/meta in a party-play oriented game, which i prefer .
