MapleStory Evolution Discussion

1. What time period (ex. 2006-2008 or January 2008 - June 2009) do/did/will you enjoy the most of MapleStory?
   
2. Why did you choose that time period?
   
3. What, if anything, do you LIKE about the progression of the game since beta?
   
4. What, if anything, do you DISLIKE about the progression of the game since beta?
   
5. What feature of the game kept you playing the longest, during whichever period? While "friends" is an understandable answer, I'm curious what parts of the game itself people really enjoy/enjoyed/will enjoy.
   
6. In viewing GMS as a whole since its inception in the world of MapleStory, what are the lasting thoughts, memories, impressions, and emotions you will never forget?
   

1. That's a pretty hard question for me. I could pick out so many points and I've been playing since the late end of beta. I guess my main turning point would be Spring 2007.

2. I was about lvl 44 at the time in competition with one of my friends at school so pretty much it was my first major set of grinding I taken place in.(I was on and off maple the past couple years)Around the time that KFT came out I had this random guild request from a guild called SacredHeros. I've been in several failure guilds before then so I didn't think anything major at first. The guild just kept getting more and more interesting though and I learned the value of a true community. I was a solo trainer for so long I didn't know what a good group of people can do for your motivation.

3. New areas, more features such as Maker, Monster Cards, progression of jobs (Seeing the birth of 3rd and 4th)

4.The managment of a couple things. I'm not the type who can go for or anti-nexon but I would've loved some more communication when there was a problem afoot.

5. Goals and attaining power in-game and quest whoring(I can't stop that for anything)

6. Almost every moment with my guild through holidays, gpqs, ect ect. Hitting 3rd job and thinking it was something major. Hitting 4th job and knowing it was something major. The feeling of exploration was also something always important to me as well.
