NX Spender: How much have YOU spent on NX?

Can't wait for [MENTION=10062]Question[/MENTION];!

I am honestly surprised at this but my very first purchase was Dec 25, 2005, been with the same account since BETA.

Purchases: 14,176,228
Credits: 14,207,030

I honestly would rather not. I want to be able to live with myself.

You have a problem with spending extra money you have on a game you enjoy and have fun with?

This man understands.

I spent at least 1000+ though... -sob-

[MENTION=2462]MetaSeraphim[/MENTION];

Yes i'd give all my playtime and memories back for the money.
MapleStory is just a big void that swallows people up and I can't get out of it.

Please someone hack me...

I just realized that I have only used this one account for Maplestory, but I have played several Nexon games over the years, with several different accounts (some were hacked, banned for billing, other stupid things).

*checks ALL the accounts*

Prepaid-NX Card 10000 NX 10,000 3 30,000
Prepaid-NX Card 25000 NX 25,000 15 375,000
Prepaid-NX Card 50000 NX 50,000 1 50,000

Grand Total 563,458

So about $455, i thought i had spent more.... aw well


(I never had access to MTS because i would always play on new servers that did not have it, the 108,458 credits are from offers only)

I REGRET NOTHING!

Dungeon Fighter Online: 79,600 Total NX Spent
MapleStory: 2,528,563 Total NX Spent
Vindictus: 12,200 Total NX Spent

I didn't expect that much. at all. Only 100 over 4 years so $25 a year isn't too bad.

And I apparently have money to spend in Dec-Feb o_O That's where i spend all my money lol

Still looking to spend my 8k maple points somewhere on a decent sale that will net me some cubes or something >.O Don't feel like investing more money yet even though I have to job to pay for it.

Y'all are scrubs.

edit: roughly 2 grand charged across the accounts, unsure about prepaid cards and then iTCG stuff isn't even counted

earliest purchases are '06

My first purchase was conveniently within this week, in 2010.

1,257,505

Wow.. That's a lot more than I expected.. And I expected a lot. .-. Now I feel bad.


921,000 out of pocket, 921 bucks, ages 12-17.

Given that I've made back a fair amount of that, dang.. This is an eye-opener. I want to say this is another good reason to quit, but sadly I can't convince myself.
I knew I was addicted, but this makes me feel all sad inside. I'm a nasty person.

oh god

says I bought 700 + bind cubes n DFO


makes sense cuz it was literally THE BEST THING EVER!!

Just try it out for the heck of it. I was a bit nervous as well on how much I spent. It's way higher than I thought it would be, but I understand what's spent is spent.

Well, I did just for your sake. It came out to approx. $520 and change, with the first purchase dating back to 2006 and most of my out of pocket stuff coming from 2010 and onward. Assuming that about $450 of that was out of pocket since October 2010, I've spent almost exactly $15 a month on Maplestory. Time to not buy anything again for several years so I don't have to rationalize to myself that I could have afforded to pay a monthly fee on a traditional MMO this entire time.

About 5.5 grand. Not that suprising given how much extra cash i had when i spent all that. Oh well, Mistakes were made.

Too much over the past 3 years. Shows how f'ucking aweful the return from cubing is. I don't really feel bad because it was spare cash at the time (from working) and I had some fun.

Lf> [MENTION=618]Takebacker[/MENTION]; to reveal his secrets.

And I've never cubed before.

Kill me.

You have a problem with spending extra money you have on a game you enjoy and have fun with?

Honestly I don't know about him at all but I do have a problem with my spending and I completely relate to his sentiments. I don't really have fun on this game anymore. At the very least not in the same way that I used to. Every time I get back into playing I end up getting addicted again. I really hate myself for it. I'm really disgusted. Even in the past 5 days alone I spent over $150 on a character I just made and probably won't continue to play. I'm unemployed and out of school in therapy for other things. I guess I'm being way too candid right now and I don't know if I'm the only one like this or not. I guess one part of my bipolar disordered behavior includes impulsive over spending. I really want to quit but I don't know how to quit for good. I keep relying on Maple for the escape from reality it used to provide for me.

OT: 7,570,690 in purchases on 5 accounts from April 2007 to present. This doesn't include NX I've bought for friends and exes or NX I've traded for equips. One of the biggest reasons why I'm so disappointed is because I know my mom struggled and worked really hard to get to where she is now. Both she and my step-dad make over 100k each per year but they grew up in the Caribbean pretty poor. They put themselves through school on their own and had to sacrifice a lot to do so. I can't justify my spending knowing that my own mother was working 2 jobs and putting herself through pharmacy school all while having to share a one bedroom apartment with 4 other family members when she was my age. Three of them shared a mattress. I feel like such a spoiled peach and wasting so much money on this game is embarrassing to me.

But yeah. I'm probably an exception.

Fuuu-, I just did this and now I really regret it.

I'm not going into values, but it's more than Bryan's total; I guess it's more of a reality check for me honestly. However, most of the purchases I don't really regret; it's just a rather large chunk of it was purely wasted. >_>
