MTDynasty General News
Topic by: MTDUpdates

Hello all,

It's been a while since a weekly update has been posted and we apologize for that. Basically, either I (Matt) or Craig have had computer issues and in the time that both of us were functioning together, the rest of us just became accustomed to not posting updates weekly and I apologize again.

Basically I'd like to inform you all what has been going on the past few weeks and a few plans going on, that will hopefully update some people who are already members and maybe motivate some of you guys to join who aren't yet members.

When I came back after my computer issues I immediately attacked our first issue, MTD Khaini which was in a bit of a rough spot. I'm happy to say that our Khaini branch is for the most part on track again though could still use a bit of work. Also Flamechocobo our Bera MTD leader has worked diligently on also increasing the activity level of his branch as well. Scania and Windia as well are in great shape. Broa could definitely use some work, but that is basically at the top of our list of things to do.

We also are again in need of a MTD Broa branch leader. Whether permanent or temporary (though preferably permanent). If you are interested please click the appropriate link listed at the end of this update.

Also, there is two events in planning right now for MTD members. Both of their links can also be found below along. To join MTD, please click the corresponding link to the branch you would like to join.

Thank you and I hope to begin updating you guys weekly with separate branch updates. Have a great week!

Comment System Update & Event Managers
Topic by: Stephen

The commenting system has been fixed to allow comments to be entered. It seems that a recent update broke it and now that has been resolved. Also, searching quests works again, thanks to all that have reported the bugs!

Finally, we are looking for people to add to our friendly team. Essentially, you will go around MapleStory hosting events sponsored by MapleTip. You'll get a monthly budget in which you should use to spend on MapleStory related items and gain visitors to the site. (You'll even be able to keep a small portion of the money!)

To sign up, please send me a private message with the following information:

1. What is your schedule like? How much time do you have?
2. How old are you (be honest and I will find out)
3. What kind of things will you do?
4. How often do you play MapleStory

I look forward to meeting some of you!

MapleStory on the iPhone!
Topic by: Stephen

A fan has created a mockup of how the UI would look on the iPhone. It looks very interesting and it's worth a look.



Only thing that seems hard to manage would be the number of active spells you have and the fact that you need to use potions and recharge skills simultaneously (especially when you are fighting a boss!

Attention ALL MTDynasty Members!
Topic by: MTDUpdates

Hello all,

In order to have more guild-centered chats, votes, etc, we'd like to gather all Maple Tip Dynasty members names. It would be very difficult for us to find each of your MT names in game because we can't always catch everyone online, so it is much easier for us if you simply post it below.

If you are a MT Dynasty Member in ANY Maple Story server that we have a branch in, please reply below with your in game IGN.

The overall point of this is to change members titles to "MD Members" or if you would prefer not to change into an MD Member, please state that. By becoming an MD Member you can see the sub-forum in the Maple Tip Dynasty forum that can only be viewed by the MD Members.

So please help us collect your names in order to take place in all guild discussions! Many topics will soon be added to the MD Member sub-forum and it will help us strengthen the guild overall. Including the much awaited MD Member color change, which we will re-vote on once we get everyone, if not most peoples names.

BE SURE TO SPECIFY IF YOU'D LIKE TO BE AN 'MD MEMBER' OR WOULD JUST LIKE TO BE ABLE TO SEE THE SUB-FORUM!

If you are not a member of MTD and would like to join the fun, please apply in the following subforum:
Application Sub-Forum

Thank you! Change is coming to MTD, we're sure you'll be happy with the results.

Nexon Cash is now NX
Topic by: Adam~

For those of you who aren't following the updates on the NexonAM website, it looks like Nexon has made some slight adjustments to Nexon Cash.

QUOTE
In order to consolidate the terms used to describe Nexon’s virtual currency, Nexon Cash is becoming simply NX.



We are also introducing a new icon to represent NX currency. We’re also consolidating the names of different types of NX. All NX purchased through Nexon Game Cards or PayByCash will be referred to as NX Prepaid. If purchased through PayPal, NX will be referred to as NX Credit. Please keep in mind this is just a naming change; your existing NX balances will be unaffected.



Differences in NX Cash Types

Please note that NX Prepaid and NX Credit each have different uses.



NX Prepaid has no limitations on what in-game items it can purchase. Exceptions to this would be Cash Shop Items that must be unlocked in the first place (high-ranking NX Items in Combat Arms or Gachapon).



NX Credit is restricted from purchasing certain items in each of our games. Unfortunately, non-prepaid NX has been used in scamming and fraudulent activity. To combat this, we prevent NX Credit from being used when gifting. Below you will find specific restrictions in each of our games.



Combat Arms

Supply Cases, Black HiSec Keys, and Mercenaries cannot be purchased with NX Credit.



MapleStory

Character Name Change, Character Transfer, and Cash Shop Surprise cannot be purchased with NX Credit, nor can NX Credit be used in the Maple Trade System (MTS).

Gachapon and Remote Gachapon cannot be purchased with NX Credit until level 30.



Mabinogi

The following Gachapon cannot be purchased with NX Credit until level 30.
Soldier Gachapon
Fashion Gachapon
Explorer Gachapon
Production Gachapon
Fixed Dye Gachapon
Season Gachapon (i.e. Magician Gachapon)



NX Prepaid and NX Credit cannot be used together to purchase one item. For more information on NX, you can always visit our NX Guide. These changes will be rolled out to each game in the coming weeks. Please keep an eye out on our game websites for more information.


Thanks, and see you online!


To me, it only really looks like a name change. Do any of you feel it was necessary? Feel free to discuss.

...Why NexonAM? WHY?
Topic by: iamflip

"Nexon.net is going away, so we're throwing it the biggest goodbye party ever"

That quote was grabbed from a Flash animation you can see on all NexonAM sites. No, it doesn't mean what we all think it means. They're simply changing their image and name from NexonAM to... Blockheads?

Wait, what? Check out Hime's forum post: What is going on at Nexon.net you ask?? The Blockheads (the feisty little green dudes with party hats) have come to share the BlockParty gospel in their…"unique" way. We don't always understand their tactics, but they know how to have fun doing it, so what are you going to do?

So check out the BlockParty infotainment animatory thing. The Blockheads spent a lot of time on it, and we're pretty sure you will see why.
(Source: NexonAM Forums)

Yeah, remember those green guys you saw when you opened up MapleStory? Those would be Blockheads, and they'll be what would be the image of NexonAM; a mascot if you will.

Honestly... I don't like how this is gonna end up. Virtual Worlds News)

-GM Notice- 9/22/09
Topic by: Void

A Warning About Illegal (Private) Servers

As we've recently seen more problems with illegally operated, private servers, we wanted to provide information to our players regarding the dangers of these operations...

I don't know why they brought this issue up again.

I don't know. I just don't.

What baffles me is how there are actually more problems now with private servers. I always thought the private server scene died ages ago. I can see the servers still going on, but being more problematic than the "outbreak" when they were first released is a bit of a puzzling concept.

But then again, what do I know. Nexon wouldn't want competition. In their Maple Story.

In America.

Just another CS update.
Topic by: iamflip

Hello ladies and gentlemen. It's me, iamflip. GMS is going through another patch today... and it's full of NX sadly. There are some nice events going on though... and that Mecha mount...

The patch started at midnight PDT (3 AM EDT) and... wrongfully assuming that things goes well as planned, the servers will be back on and live at 10 AM PDT (1 PM EDT).

So... what do you guys think of the patch?

I apologize for the late update this week and no update last week. I just started school and I'm trying to balance everything.

MTD Scania ~ MattSnipdU, Leader of MTD Scania (MTLegacy)
  • We now have 75 spots in the guild, but are still quickly filling up. Get your spot today by applying in the following topic: [Scania] Mass Fill!
  • Unfortunately we didn't get to the planned events this summer, it was either me being busy or other people too busy. Sorry guys! I'll be trying for weekends or fridays!
  • With school now started and all, I'm not gonna be as active and may not be get on for very long daily.


MTD Windia (Consurgo) ~ Exculpation, Co-Leader of MTD Windia
  • My bet with karen was pushed back to November. Visit the topic in the MTD Section for more info.
  • I cleaned out Consurgo! If I wrongly kicked you out, be sure to PM me!
  • 65 slots! If you play in Windia be sure to sign up!
  • If you want to see the guild get bigger please please please PM me if you think you can donate! Anything is great, big or small!


MTD eMS Kradia (Axiom) ~ Sanotan, Leader of MTD eMS Kradia
  • Welcome to all new members to the guild. Hope you enjoy being here.
  • There will be a recruitment drive soon in game to find legit active members. If need be, anyone not currently active will be kicked to make room, but will be allowed to return if they wish.
  • Ariant is rumoured to be on the way to eMS soon. No one knows when this "soon" will be, or if Ariant really is the next update, so keep an eye on the Kradia (europe) forum in Maplestory cafe for a patch announcement once it has turned up on the Europe Maplestory site.
  • I encourage all members of the guild to join the Mapletip forums, so that any inactivity can be reported. Please do so, so you will not lose your place in the guild.


MTD Bera ~ FlameChocobo, Leader of MTD Bera

Wild NxJoeW found!
Topic by: iamflip

Ok... not really wild, but at least news has cropped up that he's still alive. In case you didn't know, he was former part of the NexonAM staff as part of Community Relations.

Anyway... I wouldn't call him NxJoeW anymore, at least according to this YT vid. What could he be up to? Click on the link and find out yourself. :]

MapleStory's on Facebook!
Topic by: Stephen

Looks like MapleStory has jumped on the facebook bandwagon. It's just another thing Nexon is doing to improve relations with the community. Of course, MapleStory also has their own twitter.

This is a great improvement from when MapleStory just started and we had no good means of communicating to Wizet/Nexon. Good job Nexon, keep it up!

We also have our own facebook page. Feel free to join!
