High unlikely to get people to do it but yeah.
Of course they will. Its like none buying McDonalds anymore because of how fatty it is. what do they do? They make things less fatty to get their costumers back. If we Boycott Cubes only for like 3 months , need a large time frame or else will think its just a hype boycott.
But personally this is not a glitch otherwise they would have acknowledged it by now as it deals with their number 1 seller. To me this is a "Test" to see the affects of this change. and they purposely made it say % so that people would think its good without overpowering(the already overpower) potenial system. obvouly it had little to on effect on purcheses so they will keep it as it technically is a "Nerf" to the system for items that have yet to be cubed.

In 3 months legend will be out and the problem will have fixed itself.
Pointless to boycott anything.
Not to mention that the people who use forums such as SP represent a very small percentage of the maple community.
Getting everyone to do it is impossible.

Well I cubed a PSB and got 12% str, upon equipping it my str went up by exactly 12. This was is at lvl 145 with roughly 750 base strength, so it definitely wasn't 3% or 6% or 9%. To me it was obviously +12 str.

You don't have to go on a forum to know that the bug exists/is real, much less to participate in a boycott. Everyone knew about this glitch from day one and have naturally weaned themselves off cubes regardless of anyone telling them it's stupid to continue.
If the community were smart enough they would have done the boycotting without anyone telling them so not for the sake of boycotting, but because they aren't getting what they should be out of their cube money. On the flip side, if this were the case, Nexon's sales would have dropped, and they would have fixed it by now.
If the potential glitch isn't considered a "major glitch that requires a patch" like was mentioned in the new year's article, then that means it must cut into their profits in some way, which this glitch doesn't seem to be doing on it's own.

Exactly.
The reason I'm not cubing now, and am telling all my alliance and buddies not to cube, is not as a boycott. It simply makes no sense to cube when you can't tell what you got. It's like... would you cube if magnifying glasses suddenly disappeared from shops?

I believe our alliance used to stop cubing until this problem was fixed, but a good chunk of people couldn't contain their gambling addiction and ended up continuing to cube :|

It's no surprise our alliance is full of morons anyway. It's fine to aim for unique, but otherwise they're retarded.

Morons AND terribad trolls. Too bad 95% of those people are from lolVarsity.
Only cubing I did with this glitch being present was using Premiums to 3line my Kenta Goggles. I stopped the second I got 3line on it.

Too bad both went 2 line.
At least VIP items have easy tradability (no PSoK needed), which makes em better imo.

For sure, every Katara past level 110 is tradeblock upon equip, can't PSoK them. So yea, even a below avg VIP katara like that is to be prefered.

Oh cool, everyone got a free cube in the CS. Only thing I have worth scrolling is my new gun, but it's 2 lines...Maybe the free cube will make it epic, huh?! Naw, that's too unrealistic. *reveal*

These are clearly the best potentials a dagger can get.
Sigh. I cubed away from 6% LUK/12 ATK/12 ATK for this...
Eh... this is completely unexpected, but such is cubing, I guess.
It REALLY bothers me that neither of those lines are 30% boss, but together they are better...
