What fucking alternate universe do you live in? Save for using Skype, I had this exact experience when I was in middle school and I'm 24.

>tfw I stole a guy's maplestory gf
Felt good but then I broke up with her because she was like 13.

>>315609356
skype is what makes it underage. I'm 23 and we still used aim and vent back then

>tfw never played Runescape, Maplestory, or Ragnarok Online
>I had fun roleplaying as an iksar on Everquest 2.

I've recently gotten back into the game as I wait for Next and it's depressing how empty it's gotten. Maybe I'll just stick with WoW.

I used x-fire.

Anyone remember stealing peoples' items by telling them to drop their items very far away from you, and then holding the top of your game's bar so that they couldn't see you move, then walk up to them and nab their shit?

Be honest /v/, what'd your profile look like?

>>315609489
Just because you didn't use it didn't mean it wasn't used at all. I know plenty of people back then who used skype. It just wasn't as common as it is now.

>>315610440

>>315609765
I only made a Facebook.

>>315607507
gotta go way farther back than 5 years to when maplestory was good haha

>>315609765

Default because the scripting would never fucking work for me for some reason.

>>315607953
Skype has been around since 2003.

>>315609747
runescape prime time was a few years before maplestory prime time fag

>>315610737
Doesn't mean people were using it. People were using vent. Skype didn't get really popular until what, 2008?

I'm pretty sure skype wasn't around back when I actually did that.

Maplestory was always shit only nostalgiafags like to pretend the original was good

>>315610946
Ain't nobody give a hoot nigga nobody used that shit back then

>>315610887
Nice assumptions. It started getting major attention in 2005. I personally was using it often around 2006

Do you guys want to play again ?

I got them nostalgia feelins

>>315611205
As someone who has played it recently, it is not at all the same. Kind of disgusting actually. You can get to level 100 in like 10 hours of play time. Also they lowered the 3rd job advancement level to 60 and the 4th job advancement to 100.

>tfw you'll never experience the 00'' again with your 3rd grade friends

>>315608713
I never did this but always wanted to. That and high level stuff were the only things I didn't do in MS.

I recently started play again, the whole experience felt weird. Everything was so familiar but so different. I ended up getting to around level 40, rather quickly, and I swear I haven't said a single thing to anyone, nor has anyone said anything to me. The game feels like it's all cluttered with useless shit on the screen, and the community feels so reserved and cold. Also, you need to level 50 to do the Ludi PQ, fuck that.

>>315611548
Maplestory is a prime example of the casualization process.

>Game starts out as a grindy korean MMO that people love for the charm, community, and sense of accomplishment that hard grinding brings.
>people begin trying to get their more casual friends to play
>"Wow this game is cool... but It's a little grindy"
>EXP curve change
>"Awesome! Let me tell my friends to come play"
>"Wow this game is cool... but it's a little grindy"
>Big Bang
>"Awesome! Let me tell my friends..."

>>315612089
I heard no one even does PQs anymore since it's so easy to grind to high levels now.

I heard that too. I just wanted to relive some memories. I loved doing PQs with my friends, even that shitty moonbunny one.

When's Maple Story 2 releasing outside of Korea?

My friends and I are keen to play it again, just purely out of nostalgia. It's probably gonna suck massive ass

>>315612207

It took literally 10+ hours of grinding to level up one time post 3rd job.

It's true. Now there are storyline quests that give a fuckload of EXP like any other themepark MMO and you don't have to cooperate with anyone to do them.

I loved Ludi PQ and I remember being so fucking hyped for Orbis PQ. That PQ totally lived up to the hype and was shit tons of fun with guildies.

>>315613045
Meso explosion doesn't work with dropped mesos anymore. Only pickpocketed and unlooted mesos

>>315612814
Past level 100 maybe. 70-100 were cake.

>>315613540
>70-100 were cake
Fuck no, at least not when I played.

71 was when you couldn't do Orbis PQ anymore and everything stopped being fun and you had to agonizingly grind on mobs in maps with shitty layouts. I was an Ice Wizard and had to go where the fire dogs were in either El Nath or Korean Town and those maps both had lava everywhere which made it annoying to traverse the map and kill things at a decent pace.

I also remember getting like .02% experience per kill or something ridiculous. When I finally quit, I was only Level 88.

>>315613821
Trying to remember what level people could start doing Himes

>>315613540
Sure if you were rich as fuck and could clear gobies quickly

>>315606993
I found out recently that my best friend since middle school has a statue of him as one of the first 10 players to hit level 200 on one of the servers. I think he was on Khadia.

>>315614016
Probably where a lot of people started actually spending money on the game to get them sweet sweet gachapon items.

Ludi PQ

Kerning PQ

Amoria PQ (would be higher but you needed to get married to participate)

>Low Tier
Pirate PQ

Moonbunny PQ
Whatever other PQs came out after Moonbunny and Pirate, they were probably shit too.

I played on Bera and the sense of satisfaction from sweet sweet Scania's tears when Fangblade was first to 200 was second to none.
