I'm showing you how butthurt people always are because someone was crafty and ingenious enough to steal the cookie from the cookie jar before they did, aka got to some unrealistic goal before they could such as FangBlade getting to 200 before anyone else. Seriously, learn to read the whole damn post before you reply.
As I said Level 200 was about time and money. Read the post again and see where I said it, not as directly, but I said it. Here's a hint:
What I am getting at in saying is that people have used excuse after excuse for their own shortcomings, ignorance, and jealousies for this game and not being where the next person in line got to before they did. People get so bent out of shape because someone killed a super strong boss before they did, got to Level X faster than they did, got some rare and valued item before they did, and whatever else they can think of as an excuse to trash talk the next person.
As for the BB accomplishment issue. For those of us who spent a lot of time working for what we have gotten, that now anyone can do without the same effort and minimal investment of anything.
Think of this:
You go take a driving test and the instructor tells you to parallel park. You can't do it and you fail the test and have to come back the following week for a retry.
You're friend goes for the same test the following day and the same instructor doesn't have him parallel park. He passes the test on the first try, while you now must come back for a retest that may or may not include parallel parking.
Does anyone understand that? Anyone at all?
Basically your friend did only half the test and got what he wanted while you did the full test but failed.
Show me the logic in that and relate that to what now players will be faced with.
Now answer this... even though you're friend didn't have to parallel park in his driving test, does he know how to do the task at all?
The instructor could have focused on some other parameter that really tested the friend. It is unknown about the ability to parallel park, but he could have made up for that by excelling in something else (such as better turning). Eventually he'll have to face parallel park situations.
In MS, everyone will still feel the hit of the grind.
Please don't put that much attachment to hitting a high level in an MMO. Just because you feel hitting 190 or 200 is an 'achievement' doesn't really make it so. Let's be practical. When you apply for a job and it asks you to put down what you considered some of your greatest achievements, you probably won't put "Lv 200 MS on 1x no potential equips". That's just sad.
Making friends and enjoying the experiences with friends is just about the only thing worth semantics in Maplestory.

Anecdotes and made up statistics are as helpful for 'proving' points as using the Bible to prove when the world was made.
