You don't see change cause you guys are just crying about bs that doesn't need to be changed. What I see here is the standard, "I can't just do what I do and mind my own damn business, and play the game the way I choose to play, and let others do the same, cause I'm far too immature for such a thing." attitude.
Frankly, if some jerk wants to join the game, and leech the hell out of their levels and learn absolutely nothing about the game, and eventually quit due to that, then good riddance. Adds more to the upper level count, and at the same time insures there is one less player. It's win/win in my book.
I personally started a Fire Mage when the game first went official because I love mages, period. I trained and trained and trained, having to take frequent breaks, cause let's face it, the game is slow, it was slower back then. Funny how my first break was AFTER 2x came out. Zakum comes out, and I lost a lot of my interest, why? It's because everywhere you went, all you read was how mages would be useless, the biggest thing in maple at the time, and I had to level knowing that I'd likely never be able to go. For the most part I still trained anyway, but slowed down greatly. Now I wasn't in the top levels at any point, but I was always in the "standard" level range. I still greatly enjoyed the game, but I wanted to play it from a different character, and I had made many other characters >_>.
When I saw what I'd get in 4th job on my mage, I focused on him, before even knowing the leech value, but thinking my training would be faster then, even knowing I'd still not really be all that great at bosses. Point is, I went through all that, only moderate leveling speed, very little bossing, to acquire top tier leveling speed and ease. I happen to have 2 computers, so I can leech my own characters, and this is why I don't want leeching taken away. I do not sell leech myself, but I enjoy being able to leech my own characters, and I've earned the right.
As for the people that sell leech, or buy leech, w/e, it doesn't matter to me. Those people will quit, so be it. Some won't, even with those that do quit, they wouldn't even make it that far if they couldn't have leeched to begin with, so it's no loss to the community, which some people seem to be making it out to be a loss. As for any rankings argument, hacking. That's all I have to say. You either get or you don't
So I say, we all just mind our own business. It really doesn't affect you if someone leeches, and quits. If you don't want to buy or sell leech, or leech at all, then don't. If you run into some lvl 15x, that knows nothing about the game, laugh to yourself and move on. It's not that big of a deal, and it'll never be changed. Be happy they are even fixing boss leeching.
