Dear reader,

In the 4 years that I've played I have made a lot of friends - LPQers from 2007; Islanders; Beginners; Eterna members; YourMapleStory members; OdinMS players; NexonEU forum members and players from the various guilds I've been in over the years, however there is one common thing between all of you, and that's that not many of you really know who I am outside of MapleStory.

Online, I am Tryst, and I joined MapleStory Europe 1 week after Beta. I used to collect coins - an expensive hobby that I couldn't really afford to keep up with. Shortly after I joined MapleStory Europe I found something new to collect: various items dropped on Maple Island. This was a hobby that I had kept up steadily for the past 4 years, and up until the most recent patch there were very few items I didn't have on my Islander. I'm not going to lie, I was very proud of this collection -as sad as that may be.

Yesterday (April 25th) all my accounts on MapleStory Europe (including the one my Islander was on) were banned for use of third party programs. Banned because after almost 3 years of not hacking on MapleStory Europe (after the Metronome incident), I decided I'd give it another go.
I discovered a way of crashing maps, and decided that the best thing to do was make it public - in the hope that Nexon would patch it within a few days (like they did with PG hack in 2008). I made it quite clear how the crash was caused, and even included a part aimed directly at Nexon explaining what to do to patch it. 2 months on and Nexon still haven't patched it.

I was then banned permanently from the NexonEU forum for asking if anyone sold leech, and annoyed at this (afterall, I thought Kazz was a friend) and the fact that Nexon had unanswered the last 15 or so EoIs I'd sent, I decided I'd post up a few more pretty insignificant exploits.

I never benefited from any of these exploits on my legit characters; Table, Storytime, Tryst, PermyB, Ship, Imaginary, Accessory, etc. yet they're all now permanently banned. Because of this I've lost 4 years worth of work put in to those characters, and around £600 of NX.

So annoyed by this, in quite a state of nerdrage, and after seeing a few messages in-game since the patch about successful Enhancements, today I updated the hack that was around on GMS when they first had the potential patch, allowing hackers to create 500+ attack weapons, etc.

I'm pretty sure I've now lost all the friends I made in the last 4 years. Els' reaction to me revealing that I lost 12 accounts, not 7, pretty much sums it up: 12? LOL! Even better.

The Islanders' guild and Union are now worthless, as both the guild leader (ImaMule4) and union leader (PermyB) are both permanently banned.

I never meant to hurt anyone's feelings.

 

Have a great life,
James.

PPS: I'll make the forum available again tomorrow some time.
