I joined at the end of October, and I'm level 181 -- But I have been on hiatus for the past 2 months to focus on GM duties.
^There was a wipe?? Oh dear, I hope there won't be another any time soon... I joined about 3 days ago and I'm level 53 right now. Leveling really slow now that there's no more CPQ and I'll be studying for my finals...lol
I joined late February, now I have a 131 bish and a 68 sin, although i'm basically done with my bish and am now focusing on funding and leveling my sin :3 (Bishop is now a farm-leech slave xD)
Sins, hirudotherapy and slavery, and yet people wonder why I choose to stay well away from that wretched continent of yours? I certainly agree, it must have been one inordinate bish to leave Maple Island.
I joined in June last year, but that doesn't count, because of the server wipe at the beginning of October! =) I started over immediately after the wipe, and although I was the first person on the server to have a F/P wizard, my progress since then has been very slow! I got my F/P Mage to level 100 on 16th Nov last year before finally giving in to my irritation at not having Door and starting a Priest-to-be on another account to rectify the situation. I now have a lvl 101 F/P Mage, a lvl 98 Priest, a lvl 50 Spearman/shop mule and a lvl 29 Islander, but like Amy, I've been pretty much on hiatus since joining the staff in late January and focussing on staff duties.
Made my I/L Mage around mid February 2014. Currently level 137. Short breaks here and there for various reasons.
Well the first time I started playing royals, I was quickly reminded of the struggle and how hard it actually was to level back in the old days. I created a cleric that I gave up on [Lv 41] and decided to take a break from royals. It was only until I made a sin that I decided I wanted to come back to royals. I was able to reach level 50 in roughly 2 days. Mostly thanks to all the NX I accrued while I was away from royals. I kept voting and when I started playing my sin, I had a little over 225k NX, so thanks to the funding i got from gachapon, leveling my sin was very easy. Much easier than if I had just straight grinded with no form of funding. He's a hermit now, and he's lv 108. I also have a lv 58 xbow. I think I like playing characters until their 3rd job and hell ensues =[
Well I joined in June, I had a level 151 bowmaster prewipe. After the wipe, I have a level 70 chief bandit.
