Unscheduled Server maintenance 10/3

in one of the announcements for the server check it said:

- deleting characters

does that mean we might have the chance to get new names that are Original? 0-o

I guess you're referring to this one;

 Spoiler

- The MapleStory Staff -

There were problems which disallowed creating, or deleting characters (and purchasing Cash Shop items with Maple Points).

Update 1:
This server maintenance seems to be extended as well:

The server maintenance has been extended for one more hour to 6:30 pm. The extension is only for Bellocan and Scania. Yellonde and all other servers are up and running. Thank you for your understanding.

 Spoiler

I realised they said "Thank you for your understanding" instead of the usual; 'We apologize for the inconvenience.'

Update 2:
The server maintenance has been extended again:

The server maintenance has been extended to 7:00pm. The extension is only for Bellocan and Scania.

Update 3:
The server maintenance has ended 15 minutes earlier prior to the last expected time.

All servers are up and running including Bellocan and Scania. Thank you for your patience.
