Duh.
They're asleep now.
It's not like there's any way anyone can actually alert them that something is going on.

I feel like what you're referencing is too old to be the enhancement hack or the Deep Purple Witch Belt drop rate hilarity, what are you referring to?

Unless they had a night person or two in order to keep watch for... this. MMO companies know their games don't die at night and stuff goes down, some even act on that. GMS, being the Global version, should really have some 24/7 staffing. Hire a minimum wage guy, have him watch for hackers and roll out some reports/in-game events during the night. He gets a job, you pay relatively next to nothing for how useful a service he's providing.

This isnt the first time people were able to get 255 stats on every item, it was either in KMS or JMS a similar problem came up and I'm sure they will handle it the same way.

My friend, who used to hack, said that he only played on Khaini because it (was) underpopulated. Now Khaini is like Broa circa-2008. Looks to me like we got the hackers.
So guys, it looks like MapleStory had 2012 before the rest of us. -RIP-

Ontopic: Ugh, I thought you play games for fun, what is the fun of obtaining items with stats that break the game?

Not sure how legitimate this claim is but:

Since the date of the video is Dec 21, nexon would have to rollback at least 2 weeks in order to try and get
rid of the items that are being shown.
They need to manually search and remove each hacked item from the game or there's a chance these newly smegaed
ones will enter the economy despite a two/three day rollback.
But given their track record with the previous cravens, 301 bows, and STs...
:/

I dunno why you guys are saying Maplestory died now. It died a long time ago.

I'm pretty sure the game wouldn't be able to recover after this point unless you look like at a massive clensing. If nexon thinks they can just ban a few people and brush their shoulders off..oh man are they suddenly going to get a wake up call.
And what people are overlooking is that the ST/Cravens were class specific, these are common gear, anyone can use them, everyone but mages.
Edit:
...Wait didn't Eos post a thread about adjusting the website to branch out in case maplestory failed?
...THE F`UCK EOS DID YOU DO THIS TO PROVE A POINT?! LOL

Where was I to shut these fools up with my legit item  Oh well aha Now does the attack actually increase your range or is it a typo?
Prob best to not smega it too much with all these hack accounts going around though.

Why?
Unless these items flood the market to the point where you can't obtain a legit one at all, i don't really see the issue.
