GMS Server Status Discussion 2012-01

I just prefer Latale's network setup to Maplestory's. LT is almost entirely serversided, and is generally a very laggy game for people outside of California (noticeable amounts of lag for me, up to 2 seconds), but I GREATLY prefer a bit of lag to hackers. As of 2 years ago when I played, there was only ONE successful attempt to packet edit in the game recorded on video and ZERO people stating they had seen someone using hacks ingame besides that person, by anyone from any version or server, and that one single person was banned in 20 minutes; the server went down for an E-SC, and came back up with the hole patched. jLT was where that video was recorded, and it's a decent sized MMO over there.

I'll take a few lag deaths for support like that any day of the week. Hell, I would even pay a monthly subscription to MS, if it had that.
