Let's talk bout MapleStory

Hmm...firstly...issit still called MapleStory? Tuiphin kept saying MapleSea...MapleSea....hmm, duno, dun care.

Hmm..Maple has been on my hate-list for years, let's trace it back to where it started...if I remember correctly...it all started from...gunbound? As in, all the cutesy cutesy avatars and backgrounds.

I played gunbound for a while, it was pretty fun, you choose different avatars which have different abilities, and you fight it out with other players in a battlefield, worms style.

It really takes skill to win, cos you have to take into consideration the terrain, the angle, and many other factors when making each shot. So only the most experienced, or the most lucky, will prevail.

But it got old quickly, partly because the focus was on making new accessories, not avatars, and they're beginning to charge fees. So Singaporeans who're extremely cheapskate began looking for an alternative.

Their prayers got answered by Asia Soft, when it produced MapleStory. It was an 'mmorpg' whereby you create a cutesy character from 4 classes and a few tweakings to some facial and hair colour contrasts leading to a rather general and similar appearance, and go around the maple world chopping creeps like......umm..mushrooms....tree logs...pigs......hold on, i need to.... .... .... .... to....sorry excuse m....*holds mouth*...*enters a chain of spasms, puking all over the place in the process*

Sorry for being rude...
*wipes mouth* "Hey Mom, can you pls ask the tenant to stop watching suria? It's irksome, thanks."

Ok, where was I...Oh, right, the creeps, ya, isn't it dumb? Using cute characters to chop other cute characters? All my games I've played, it's cute/pretty characters chopping ugly/irritating/cute-plus-ugly/irritating creeps. It's the way games are, it's just wrong for pretty characters to chop pretty characters.

CLASSES
Nothing original, base classes are warrior, thief and mage and archer. Very basic concepts, warriors are adept at close quarter combat
, mage at casting spells and archer at range combat. But it all boils down to 1 dull tactic, stay at a comfortable distance and hack at the creep.

The wizards are really archers, and are thieves as well, just that their range attacks take on a different name and animate differently.

There is no distinction between the classes except for some skill difference, it's the same play style for all four classes, despite the various upper classes they branch off to.

PLAYERS
Now here's one good thing about maple, you get to find all the retards gathered in one place. There're people who'd spend 100000hours training up their chars, juz to start new ones so they can spend another 1000000hours training up, and it goes on.

Then there're those who play juz to chat up little girls, but little do they know that most of the girls are guys....or...very fat girls.....that makes you wan to hook up with guys instead.

And there're those who spent 100000hours playing and getting their char lvl super high calling themselves pros and other noobs. But I seriously don't see any skill required to play maple, hmmm....mebbe...time management? He managed to play 25hours within a 24 hour time frame? If so, I'll give it to him, if not, he's better off chowing at a horse's penis.

Also, there're idiots, who I duno why, try to prove some points to other idiots playing together with them. Citing a very good example, the jc vs poly flaming. WTH, the jc guy's calling the poly guy idiot, dudes, this ain't a war between jc and poly, the two of you losers are on the same side, both of you are f'ugly MAPLERS for god's sake, why don't you two go outside and play hide and go fuck yourselves?

Lastly, sadly, which most of my frens can be categorised in, are those lamers who play to prove something. Jiaming plays so that he can hack and he gets a kick out of it. Tui phin plays cos Junhong plays and so that his sis can't use the comp while he's hogging it. Junhong plays cos umm...I duno, hmm, will ask him later. ( http://www.dessyway.blogspot.com ) to see how loser junhong is when it comes to maple.

Disastrous consequences
When you play maple, there is no point in playing unless you keep levelling up. And in maple, the only price to play for levelling is time, and that is what students in Singapore do not have, therefore, they trade in their studying time, for mapling time.

P.S. I'm different, I INVEST my time in WORTHWHILE games, games that I get orgasms from. The only thing I ever got from maple's spasms.

Let's cite some examples of pple getting adversely affected by maple.

JIaMing:
Period of addiction: During 'A' levels
REason for addiction: excuse for not studying
Results: CDO ? 2nd attempt btw

Tuiphin
Period of addiction: Since start of Maple till now
Reason for addiction: No money to even buy pirated games.
Results: He's the same age as me, and he'll still be studying when I ord.

Junhong
Period of addiction: As long as tuiphin, mebbe one day later
Reason for addiction: Unknown
REsults: Hasn't broken the 170cm barrier ever since he got hooked.

Therefore
Children, open your eyes, there's a beautiful world out there! Save Ugly Anderson's photo from the previous 2 posts and mail it to Asia Soft, we MUST stop this evil from spreading!

Alternatively, you can email or sms Oswald and jio him to play Maple!'

All in all, Maple is an extremely time-consuming game which induces violent intentions, yielding negative influences in the players' minds. Those who get hooked to it will be better off smoking and whoring as those activities burn off calories at least. Maple will only make you fat, ugly, retarded, crippled, stuck to you chair, and you'll never, ever, ever get laid, not in this life time, not in the next few to come. So pls, while there's time, salvage yourself, purge the evil, remove that piece of crap from you computer.
