Artemis server have 3 sub servers for character slots. My KoC, Zen, UA Captain, DB, and Mihile (6 slots, just started at enchanted forest patch) are in 1.
My BaM, phantom, WH, Evan and my cleric are in the other sub server.
So yeah :/
Edit: Artemis has 3 sub servers coz not many people play artemis :/

After reading the (layout disaster-ridden) patch notes, I sort had to revert to reading other continents' patch notes for a much nicer view. It's a pain in my eyes just trying to read those vague lines hidden with ninja edits out of nowhere when something has screwed up.
I think we can camp here way past 19:00 since there's going to be a high chance of expecting delays and hilarious mishaps. Now thinking of a way to migrate to GMS while watching MSEA crumble with money-faced horrid management and poor technical support to the extent that the Bug Report and Technical sections in PPF were some sort of graffiti walls acting as museum displays.

Well, I'll be staying at SEA because lag never agrees with me. They didn't even list out the events so it's incompetency as usual on their end.

Until you realize you kind of need to be able to play lag-free to loot the drops and thus fund yourself. I tried that before and gave up.

That's what they are professional in.
To be honest, I'd expect a standard like the one in GMS. Well formatted and good layout to list almost every single thing without fail. It shows that the folks at GMS take their job seriously to provide the quality gameplay experience as well as keeping a high level of technical support. And sort of tells us that they know what they're looking at and not blatantly distributing and cause more disaster out of the game.
To be honest, all I see in SEA patch notes is just a bunch of thrown in rubbish, improperly formatted. Doesn't even look sincere, more like passing their job to just publish those notes. Only the cash event notices were decorated "beautifully" than the others.
I understand that you had no choice but to stick to SEA. But one of my reasons for going GMS is not only because of my disgust towards AS, it's more of experiencing another new community there and observe how they operate as compared to here. I am very sure it will be a fruitful experience and different perspective of the gameplay.

I expect that too, but well, let it be said that few game companies in SEA actually have high standards too. Much as I hate the idea of staying in SEA the reality is that I as a gamer have always made my gaming choices based on the game actually working out for me; in spite of the gifts given out by GMS I couldn't hope to rely solely on that to make my way up so I'd have just as bad of an experience at GMS as I would in SEA, if not worse.
As for the experience, I just look at how different Southperry's users are from the mainstream MapleSEA player.

Considering my friend has a 15x ab and a lv 13x kaiser in 2 different servers, I think I could do that.

Actually, my first impression on Southperry upon joining was so-so (maybe warm). The people around here are much more mild and "tamed" (no idea how to put that), they don't quickly snap into defence and scream at you when they see something wrong. As you've mentioned, they actually do point out nicely to you if you're making a mistake so that you can learn from it the correct way. Unlike our counterparts in SEA, snapping and biting is the norms for majority, except the forum staff.
Recently the post count wars already sort of turned me off. I have absolute idea why I'd make that MapleSEA MAP and SP Distribution Guide despite hating at least half the community clowns in there. Couple of months ago I remembered someone raged at me because he wasn't able to get his quest properly done due to some issues and started throwing stones at me just because he thinks I'm a GM or some moderator by the way I post.  I mean, can't they see my profile carefully before throwing that stone?!?! I don't even have a staff badge on there.
Though I admit I'm also sometimes cranky and snappy in PPF like those SEA players, but I do understand at least what I expect in others as well as vice-versa. We all have our own individual standards and we can't really make a perfect comparison, just accommodate and understand each other with respect is probably the best way to maintain a community.
Shall quit the raging about PPF, I'm already out of the topic. Sorry for this wordy post if I made your eyes sleepy. (Was finding a place to scream abuse...  )

I suppose you could but if MapleSEA goes I'll go too, I'm not nearly invested enough in the game to continue on.
[MENTION=12407]DUSTMAN[/MENTION]; Oh so true. Oh well, I pretty much stopped posting there for a good reason and I expect to already see the complaints piling up tomorrow.

I've got some popcorn and few cans of Fanta for you.
Off-track: I almost clicked on a thread and replied "SHUT THE HELL UP!" in that forum.  Shall maintain and control a bit...or do I throw Aran's Final Judgement on him? 
And I regretted throwing my 100% Blade Fury 30 away, without knowing Tempest would guarantee the changes. Crap that!

I give up trying to read the quest.wz log, there's just too many things in it with the wrong dates.  I sure hope things go at least semi-smoothly so that I know what needs to be done to give my mules a good headstart.
There's stuff in there like a Season 2 Perfect Attendance Event though.

20 minutes until the start of the 12 hour downtime.
At least I have school to keep me occupied.

Doesn't say anything about Ninja Castle + Malaysia, so I'll assume so.
Ugh, Nexon.

We have no idea until the server is up.
They said nothing when they added in Neo City and removed Neo Tokyo.
We were all like: "Wth why can't I get in Neo Tokyo now?"
Anyway, I'm going to assume that Ninja Castle is going and Malaysia staying.
