Girasol Has Withdrawn

One morning she is excitedly advertising an event in Maplestory and that day's afternoon she's asking people to "nuke" her accounts?.

If that's the case, could it maybe be possible that her accounts were compromised somehow, and whoever did it wanted her to just disappear?

Backwards. Her concern was people puppeting the corpses she was leaving behind to impersonate her.

Alright.

And I'll assume that you were able to confirm it was actually her requesting her account be "nuked", and not someone who hijacked it.

(Also, sorry if speculation like this isn't allowed, I can remove it if needed)

It's fairly improbable that someone would've known how to contact me the way she did to ask for what she asked for, other than her.

More so, even if they did, she would be more than capable of reaching me to tell me it wasn't her who did the original.

So what the heck is going on? The post in Nexon's forums says:

Then we have our friend here saying

Yet people are still like "OMG Why would she leave? I wish you the best Girasol... and you Nexon pineapple yourself."

Was it all a joke or is it serious?

She came up to me to say that it wasn't her that made the post, asked me to edit and lock the thread.
She did leave but the "official goodbye" was not written by her.

That would be why she asked me to nuke her account here. I figured she would've torched the one on the Nexon forums herself, but she might not have done it well enough.

At first I thought it was her on her home computer, but turns out it wasn't.
Just this guy trying to advertise "Wonderking" on the forums.

So did she wipe her account but forget to ban the name, so someone else remade and stole her temporarily?

Nice and tacky there. Humanity never fails to fail me

Ah, in that case, that's at least another theory shot down.

Offtopic edit: I just noticed that you're a fellow I/L.

He's on his 4th account right now, actually! Still tryin' to advertise.
I also think he's the one that has been harassing me on Tyler's website (Mapler.Me) since he knows my full name (I don't know how he did it, quite creepy), and no one has ever addressed me that way until he did.

It got me angry at first, but at this point it's making me sad and feel sorry for him haha.

Stalker alert
But wouldn't Girasol's original account have something on NexonNA forums to show that it's the real deal?

It seems like her badge was removed and you cannot access the profile, but the posts are still there.
Like I said, at first I thought she didn't have access to that account anymore and made a new account, but she later confirmed that it wasn't her.

That would be why she asked me to nuke her account here. I figured she would've torched the one on the Nexon forums herself, but she might not have done it well enough.

I don't think there was any way for her to lock it there in such a way that the very owners of the forum couldn't use the account or delete it and create another user with the same name.

Being that's it the same forum software we use, yes, she could've.
But it wasn't the admins who were the problem there according to Maryse.

That's funny. I used to be a forum mod for Wonderking NA and had to deal with people advertising Maple Story. Such fond memories. ^_^

(Why advertise it though? The NA version was shut down 1.5 years ago and the JP version filters IP addresses...)

Older people will remember NXJoe and how he left, even though it was a while before Hime and Girasol he was one of the first good employees that Nexon lost.

Definitely. NXJoe was awesome too bad he tried keeping in touch after he left Nexon with the community but then vanished again shortly after.

Apparently it's coming back? At least that's what I gathered from the spam.

Eventually. But I haven't seen any new news from WK NA. There was an update like 2-3 months ago saying "hey we hear you still like this game and we're gonna revive it," but nothing since. I don't see any purpose in advertising it when there's not even a CBT announcement or anything. I mean, I was excited for the JP re-release and jumped onto the open beta there, but not understanding a character of kanji kinda got in the way of that. XD

Anyway, reaching back towards the topic, I remember when a WK Gamemaster was released, which was quite sudden to us. And he was basically the one us moderators reported to for a while. It was quite a sad day.

Why did Hime leave too?
