Maplestory is just a game that will eventually sucker even the most respecting of people into wasting their PARENTS' hard earned money on a "Free" game. I found that the mass majority of this game is under the age of 10, which means that their not even old enough to play this game. Not to mention that the game is almost impossible to play without buying some NX for certain things like a store permit. The game may seem fun at the start, but when it gets down to it, the majority of the players in this game couldn't even pass as a 13 year old with a major case of Down-Syndrome. IF you are looking into playing this game or comming back to play it, I strongly advise you to do otherwise, and if you do play it, don't say you weren't warned to do otherwise.

Soooooo True 

Maplestory is a great game don't put down a game just because you don't like the hack'n slash...you don't need NX cash at all! If you played enough you would have learned that...Just because you can buy a market and sell stuff doesn't mean that there is no other way to sell stuff...Ever hear of Basilmarket? If you did then you would have not posted this stupid thread. Basilmarket is like an ebay but for maplestory, and probably close to the whole population use it...I know lots of people that are over the age of 10 on Maplestory My whole guild is over ten and all of my friends on my buddy list are as well...So get your facts straight before you post something like this.

10 you say? weird, i dont know anyone who is 10 or under i know ppl 13 through... 20

I know people well into their 20s that play this game. I don't think it's the greatest game but it is simple fun. Plus what game isn't over-run with kids who aren't supposed to be playing it? xD The more it's not for a certain age the more they're going to play it.

I so agree with the title of this thread.

you are very brave for spreading the truth. i hate this game the maplestory makers were pushing it when they labed maplestory as entrainment.  

so what d'you recomend? Wow?
WoW recomended for all; have a big fun; freakin ammount of $ required all time$

I like this game, bcs it's free! I don' have to buy right to play, i can quit anytime i want and come back too.
And STF with this age thing, ok? don' know, if u realise, but in web are barely any proofs of being mature, so it's behaviour, that is important. more than a half of spammers, n00bs, pks etc are mature ppl who gets bored with a game and it's funny for them to annoy averybody around them.

ed.

and it's my business what i do with my money and from where do i get it. when i was 12 i was cleaning garden paths from grass for money during holidays, than sittin whole time in my roomm with my PC.

Not really sure where the money comes in for this game or the massive amounts for wow but I played maple story and thought it was fine, played wow and thought it was ok.

Other thing is, where are we living (ed: i had to be really drowzee to write leaving in spite of living :D) - for somebody buying super-duper items in MS or just playing WoW is like goin for a pizza with friends and for someone else playing whole year is equal to upgrading computer.

#1: MapleStory is for people of all ages.

#2: The only time that you have to pay is when you need to purchase item through Nexon's online story via MS, and not a monthly fee i.e., K2 Network's Knight Online, although the latter has optional premium services (Bronze, Silver, and Gold) that you can purchase whenever you feel like it.

you can see how mature maplestory's players are just by reading some of the responses to this thread. you could tell me that all the players are above 10 years old, but i wouldn't believe it.

Quick Question To All of the Maple Story Haters:

If you REALLY hate Maple Story that much, then why would you come to the Maple Story thread, just to attract Maple Story fans who try to support the game.  Do you seriously think that people who are considering to play this game will read this particular thread?

Also, you say that all the Maple Story community is young and immature.  Well, we can't really say that you're the most mature guy around seeing as you're insulting others.  (I consider stereotyping in this case as insulting)

Also, though it is true that you do need money for stalls, and other extra interesting items, you do not NEED to pay for them.  Also, though you can pay for them, and many do, I could bet you that they don't pay as much as people do or other games such as World of Warcraft.  
  

Lol, that was alot to type~
