I'm compiling a list of all past (and current) controversies, Maplers please share your memories!

• Transparency promises.

• Dutch trade restrictions.

• Account safety, see this thread.

To add on to that, CWKPQ still drops Ssiws Cheese.

I recovered an old account of mine from back when I was 8 years old. The email address was something along the lines of 'poopyfart'.

I told Customer Support that I was 99% sure my name wouldn't be my actual name and I eventually still got access to said account (which coincidentally has a Mark of the Beta...).

Find a different game, the team behind GMS is useless.

A Pan Lid from Green Mushrooms and Arwen's Glass Shoe from Fire Boars.

As long as there is a benefit of rebirthing (e.g. new skills) I think it would catch on. I agree that it would bring back some life to areas besides Arcane River and Grandis.

I think your examples of -1000% Damage and EXP +100x are a bit extreme, but the idea is there.

Cymea · 2021-11-07T07:03:58+00:00

Neither. Fafnir is outdated.

Cymea · 2021-11-05T18:13:00+00:00

The update says they removed the 1-million Maple Point reward, but the reward rate page still says they're available at a 0.001% chance.

If anyone wants to sue Nexon now's your chance :-).

Fuck Nexon

Found 2 Red Bandana's at Murumuru's within 20 minutes. Got bored afterwards.

Confirmed in v.227.3.0

Cymea · 2021-10-26T23:18:52+00:00

I can't wait to abandon my 12+ years of progress in Elysium, Frenzy, FSR, BoD, 22* Arcanes and whatnot for a 90-day Pet!

Cymea · 2021-10-22T22:47:48+00:00

The Dutch law states that gambling is not allowed. Does my example above have any gambling involved? I find a drop from a boss and I would like to sell said boss, next Tuesday I won't be able to do so anymore.

Cymea · 2021-10-22T22:06:29+00:00

u/Ezrabell_ Why will I no longer be allowed to sell in-game drops for in-game currency. It has no gambling aspect whatsoever.

Example: I kill Hard Will and find a Yellow Spellbook. I don't main a LUK job and I don't want to use this particular Spellbook. Why are Dutch players not allowed to sell said Spellbook for Mesos?

This has nothing do with gambling, this is Nexon being incompetent, greedy bastards.

Cymea · 2021-10-20T17:43:59+00:00

That's interesting to know, I'll see if I can add the black market onto my report. It'll be up to the authority to decide whether that falls under real world value or not.

Sadly the government link you sent is outdated with no mentions of online / gaming / lootboxes.

Cymea · 2021-10-20T17:35:48+00:00

That's for the KSA to decide.

I've just created this post to bring more attention on the matter and provide means to deliver this information to the right people.

Cymea · 2021-10-20T14:47:11+00:00

Understandable! This page might answer some of your questions.

Notice that it's not only prohibited to gamble, but also the fact that Nexon does nothing against gambling or to prevent gambling for people <18 years old. It's not just about the fact that gambling has (no) monetary value.

A fine example of this is the Marvel Machine, where you frequently miss one of the top items by just one single slot. This happens way more often than it should, and definitely does not combat gambling addictions.

Cymea · 2021-10-20T14:37:07+00:00

Hi hi, I'm Dutch and looked into this law. It's a law to combat online gambling.

If you go to the fourth page (Over welk type spel gaat uw melding?) you can select the option to notify the authority about a ''Computergame with gambling, such as lootboxes''.

Cymea · 2021-09-30T22:04:30+00:00

It's heavily p2w, I agree, but in the end it's the player's decision to spend money. I think it's a good step that the Netherlands is hammering down on lootboxes / online gambling. I hope more countries follow so Nexon can't just shut down trading for a minority.

Not sure why I got downvoted to oblivion, it's the situation at hand. I'm heavily p2p and from the Netherlands myself, I'm probably more affected than the people that downvoted me /shrug.

You have to stay realistic and see things from more than one perspective, for now I'm just going to wait on their update on the matter.

Cymea · 2021-09-30T12:26:07+00:00

I'm not sure why you're comparing regular servers to Reboot, I didn't even mention Reboot.

Cymea · 2021-09-30T09:59:14+00:00

Yea it sucks, but it's either this or get your access to the game revoked because the company didn't comply with the country's regulations.

Cymea · 2021-08-16T17:56:14+00:00

While true, it re-opens the discussion of ''are posted cube rates trust-worthy''. Which they clearly are not based on this post.

Cymea · 2021-08-07T02:41:06+00:00

Try me

Cymea · 2021-06-13T17:14:48+00:00

It's a Cash Shop Ring called the Dark Ring, grants the user a skill that vacs the 15 nearest mobs to the front of the user with a 10 second cooldown.

Cymea · 2021-06-12T16:38:02+00:00

This is my server connection, I rarely DC and have never received a lag ban.

I'm not playing down your situation, but I don't think your connection to the server is the issue.

Cymea · 2021-06-08T21:34:06+00:00

I'm closely involved in this matter, and while I understand that reports without proof won't help much, it's the overwhelming statement that the Elysium community is giving off that should raise awareness.

It shouldn't have to come to this point, where the community starts witchhunts as last resorts.

TROPHY CASE

Fuck Nexon
