FYI - White Scrolls

The Maple Story community was always crap. Let's not be in denial here. If you were one of the few who reached level 200 then you were envied, not respected. People didn't know you beyond a number. And to be quite honest, the main sell of Maple Story was never the social networking aspect or the opportunity to meet other players who wanted to know more about you.

Ey, I can't fully agree to that. What I liked about it when I originally played was the colorful enviroment, the easy to use chat system, and frankly because it was a game that offered teamwork as well as solo playability.

The truth of the matter is the game evolved but never kept in check while doing so. The patches are becoming oppurtunities to further crash the market, events trying to fix the damage the previous one did, and equip revamps to attempt to give the poor an oppurtunity to become of the rich. It's about trying to keep the game alive through the constant gun shots everytime it offers something.

The community was never perfect but it was never this bad, and the players who were obnoxious were extremely limited to the level of harrassment they could do to you. Now they can shut down the game because you called them an ass. You could say it brought "The personality behind the character" out of the person. Really, the community would be an infinity times better if there was consequence towards actions. There isn't, theres a sense of "I can do whatever I want with limited to no punishment". Why should I respect you when all it does is leave me vulnerable to a potential begger, or someone who's going to have the confidence to shun my opinion because they don't agree with it.

The game died not entirely, but majority on negligence of the company, you can't blame the garden for weeds growing if the owner of the garden doesn't clear them.
