Got accepted to Nexon focus group 2/21 <-- Note This Is In The Past

I believe you have 500 ms delay from looting confused with game-crippling lag. It only affects looting (solved by buying a pet, which the majority of people do in gMS and kMS do) and potting (also solved by buying a pet, but it's not so bad manually as looting is).

I have nothing confused, lag is lag, if lagging it'll cause problems with looting. That's a fact.

And being weaker is fine with me, and most other people, but we're not so weak that we can't do major bosses.

I've read about plenty of prejudice concerning american players, you can't compare your experience with your arguement, you have special circumstances. The point of this is that a regular GMS player cannot simply get a KSSN from whatever website and migrate. The challenges would make the game utterly pointless.

The pet debate is valid, because the difference between pets in kMS is that you only have to buy the water of life to restore your pet, versus having to buy meso magnet, item pouch, dragon scales, binoculars, auto-hp, auto-mp and all the other things every 90 days.

I'm sorry are we reading the same thing? I don't know, it's getting a little frustrating trying to provide points to you when your argument is pulled out of your ass. NX is not an issue, permanent or not, KMS and GMS both have to pay a hefty price for cubes/protection scrolls whatever else. Are you going to tell me that KMS gives free cubes? Ask any high level player, their NX goes primarily into cubes, not clothes, not pets. The perma pet equips were badly coded anyway as they were exploitable with the enhancement scrolls.

Culture isn't really the main factor in making the kMS community more fun, it's the language barrier. It's actually beneficial. Whenever you have people who are separated by a language barrier, the people who all speak the same language (english in this case) bond better and trust each other more. We lend each other equips, charge NX for each other whenever someone hits the buying limit, sell each other nx, etc. You could find the exact same thing being in a close-knit guild/alliance in gMS. We just have a permanent one

lolwhat. You aren't bonding with the community at all then, you're just huddling together as if you're extremely contagious diseased bunch. Sure the bonding thing, I get, you take the friends you get and appreciate them because there aren't many. But that doesn't make the Korean Maplestory community more fun. Sounds nothing more different than a private server.

I never said our community was better. I just said our servers are more stable, and we don't have the issue of duping.

Uh, then please clarify,

overall better user experience.

How is it better when you say that all they have is server stability, oh and tradeable nx which most players don't really give a shyt about unless it's cubes. Also forgot to mention that those "tradeable" cs items cannot be sold if they are used.

Your experience is based off isolation with certain people you can relate to. People do it in GMS too, it's just that you're more desperate so if they speak english they are a friend you'll appreciate.
