LET’S START ANOTHER TREND GUYS? REMEMBER OUR LAST ONE WITH THE “HOW-TO” GUIDES?
My god, all this talk about MapleStory is making me smile, so I decided to share some of my experiences.
I wasn’t a Closed Beta kid, I started a little bit after. Back when Scania and Bera were the only worlds out.
Anyway I- wait I already said this…
making characters without know jack shit about the game ftw
Wish I had pics, but they were all on MMOTales :(.
After quitting on my warrior, I moved to Khaini (when it came out of course) and made another warrior. I wanted to name him “Powerstrike” after the warrior move….
Butttt I wasn’t the smartest kid around and I typed it wrong; and thus my warrior Powerstirke was born.
I had a lot of fun with him though, finally hit 2nd job and advanced to Fighter. Eventually getting to 50, this was back when the OPQ Glitch was around, so I was stoked to soar to level 70 easy.
But I didn’t have much time to play around with it, since it got patched kinda fast.
That summer there was this HUGE hacker stomp. I’m talking hundreds of people musta been banned PER DAY.
NEXON really stepped their game up.
Unfortunately, comedy was NOT their thing.
After messing around in Khaini I moved to Kradia. Where I started my (main) warrior named Crocher. It was at this point I started buying NX, also where my addiction to the game took a turn for the worst.
I had just started 7th grade and was in the Enriched program. I shoulda been focusing on my studies, but instead I was grinding day in and day out. Many days of school were skipped, and I almost failed the grade because I did nothing but sleep (late night gaming does that to you.)
After that period, once I hit 8th grade and saw I fucked up my chance at the Enriched program (they kicked me out), I slowed down on my gaming.
After a while, once I got the hang of school, I slowly started to reintroduce MapleStory into my life. And started playing again. 4hr 2x EXP cards just came out, so all my money was still being funneled into NX.
Then….I was banned.
I went insane, I tried to play MapleStory on other accounts, but I couldn’t. After you sink so much money into one account, all the others don’t matter. ( I was banned because I had LimeWire open, it was rare, but people claimed it happened to them too. And you all know I’m not smart enough to hack.)
After taking a big hiatus, Galicia came out, and this is where my Maple Story (LOL C WAT I DID DERE?) gets fun.
Anyway I made a cleric, one of my first mages ever.
I made a lot of friends that made my gaming fun again, and I slowly started to forget about Crocher (who was still banned.)
I eventually realized warriors are my passion and made a page;
Then I started to recruit VuTalers to play with me. Aaron, DnD (AKA DarkDragoon) & Jojo (AKA Joaco) starting playing first. And we started playing with the idea of making a guild.
Well first Aaron had to stop fucking dying everywhere LOL!
But we needed more people. Dussy (AKA Dustin) started playing with us and we made the guild.
After seeing our success, TarTar (aka Tarheel91) was like “omg plz lemme play!!!1”
Actually no he wasn’t, I had to beg him to play, and life was going good. It was so much fun logging on everyday to see the guild, and we had a lot of fun times <3
Then, after summer was over and all that. The guild hit rough times. We all slowly went back to our lives, and people stopped logging on. And that was the end of the guild (it’s kinda funny cuz we’re like that too, active for a period of time, then we just die. Foreshadowing?)
After that, I mailed NEXON, and got my DK unbanned. It didn’t really make a difference though, because I barely played. But it’s nice knowing I still have him around.
Can we all start playing MapleStory again?

I think most people on this site have realized that Maplestory is a complete waste of time, and frankly, it’s not even fun. My life is basically an Asian MMORPG grindfest; I don’t need to come home and grind on another.
I would only consider playing again if we had our PS
If only Private Server development isn’t as dead as it is right now. :<
Agreed, I found myself wanting to play VuMS/MMOTMS a while back.
Oh yeah, I can’t remember if you’re a rice fan who’s Asian or if you’re a fan of Asian rice. Which is it again?
In which that Nexon Corps will stomp out any people who makes any Private Server developments because they “harm” their business.
I don’t see the point in a PS tbh, it’s easy now in GMS
I dont find any MMO’s fun anymore. I played a few since i quit MS, but eventually I either get bored or I simply forget to play for a while. (LOL AIKA)
Plus, with school and work, I dont want to waste what little free time I have playing a MS, I’d rather be on black ops >D
Technically both are valid. But the original meaning was an Asian fan of rice.
That’s exactly how I feel about MMOs.
I’ve been playing RydahMS to pass the time. donated a bit because extra cash. Still the same old private server I used to love. Nostalgia is great
I really wish I could play with you guys. But I just don’t have the time. I’m always working and on the weekends I get dragged everywhere by my boyfriend’s family. So I almost never have any time to sit and play with you guys, even though I really want to. ;____; That and the game just got way too fucking big for my laptop. It got to the point where my laptop would just crash at the little intro movie thingie every time.
I need a new computer. ;>_>
Do you guys still play in Galacia?
My Aran is still sitting at 143 somewhere..
You know what I miss most of all though? The LPQ experience. The MASSIVE track list, the JMS and GMS way of doing the number stage, smuggling passes when you couldn’t complete the PQ, The leader that had A/C (auto-clicker), that thief that forgot to use dark sight at those toy golems and died & ruined the PQ.
Good times.
Good times.
GOD DAMMIT MADE ME NOSTALGIA.
;-;
I remember KMS style, JMS style, ;-;
Good times.
Wow I haven’t been in VuTales in so damn long… There was a Mr. B rant on Basil, and I thought of VuTales and Vusys. xD
Anyway, I have to say, this was my favorite part of Maple. How you’d spend 45 minutes PQing to get 9-14% at best xD. How no mage but a cleric would ever get accepted. Or how clerics would go to Basil and make threads complaining about healing at Alishar =P. And those dexless sins with Ilbi and crap who would force you to let them solo Alishar. xD
Oh god, those were the days. I started playing around the introduction of Ludibrium and Broa. I was in 6th grade I think. 😀 Good times, good times indeed.
Nass. You need to add me on FB or something so we can start playin’ a lil again. I mean, I’ll have a little free-time!
Good times.

Exactly.
I loved that feeling you got when your whole party was dispelled or whatever, and YOU were the only badass with all-cures.
@Dussy: PM wif the ur FB link bby <3
That feeling when you were the page and when someone asked you what the page can do, “I can boost everyone’s defenses and make a giant ghost pop up!”
;_;
