    I have been playing since 2014 also, i am not a very active player but i have been making gradual progress for my Bishop and BM. Imagine a sudden wipe to the efforts i have instilled into my Bishop and BM where i still haven't achieve the goal i aimed since 4 years ago.
    Its not that i don't wish to get active, its because i have been studying and working throughout the past 4 years and i will be getting busier at the years onward.

    A server wipe means everything and everyone starts at zero. If many old players quit because of that then its really an "ALL IN' on betting the arrival of new players to increase the number of active people and player count.

    But, in my opinion, just my humble opinion, a pre-bigbang Maplestory is a nostalgia game for many people who mostly aged 20++ now and i guess they are those who serves as the pillar for this server, i am afraid that there will be less amount of new players who will join..(considering that most of those who aged 20++ who is a fan of pre-bigbang Maplestory and really missed those good times are already in Royals)

    the reason you find it so boring as you have nothing to do on the server is prob because achieving your goal could be so easy especially with Leeching, multi-clienting, HP washing, leeching made it so easy to make a new char and leveling it and you make so much money out of it, which is also probably one of the reasons perfect weapons are so common. on the other hand multi clienting makes it easer too, u can just leech ur self, bring ur mules to boss runs etc this basically isolated the players from each other making an actual BM with SE useless to come to your party if you already have a SE mule which ruins the fun, or looking for a bishop would be useless since u can bring ur own bishop because of multi client or an SI mule cause you rarely see players that actually play a bucc, Or pally for power crash. hp washing on the other hand makes drk completely useless at parties making boss runs so easy for you. boss runs are supposed to be hard... and the whole leeching thing makes hp washing easy with all the money you make with leeching.

    a Server wipe is not going to bring players back if theres originally nothing to do on the server. its just gonna go back to where it started in a couple of months or so, then what are you gonna do just wipe the server again? what is the point of that.

    another thing to add is the server population probably went down because mapleroyals stopped supporting mac thats another thing to look at. most player with macs quit because of that

    Server population's also going down due to the number of perma bans, both intentional and unintentional.
    The amount of people I've known in the last 4 years that got banned, both from being stupid idiots and breaking the rules, and simply being at the wrong place/wrong time is alarming.
    Look at these last 3 months alone this year! People are getting "bored" or "testing the waters" so they vote abuse/hack/whatever and they're getting banned. How hard is it to not break the rules? Plus there's some edgy kids making jokes and going too far and getting perma banned for that too.

    Why's it so hard to just be a good noodle :I

    I'd argue that this server is better off without these players anyways, for every wrong ban there are 100 justified ones. Permabaning has only helped the longevity of this server, losing one person while denying that player denying the fun for others is a fair tradeoff

    I wasn’t saying it’s the servers fault for banning people though, obviously people are going to get banned. It was more of a “why are people being stupid and breaking the rules? It’s not hard to read the rules” comment, rather than defending the banned players lol

    I only know a handful of people who got banned for making jokes about rwt, yeah it was a dumb move on their end, and I can confirm those 3-4 people didn’t participate in rwt at all— they were just being absolutely stupid and trying too hard to make a joke. 3 of them I knew irl, and the 4th was good online friend who was on daily grinding for mesos.
    Does it suck? Yeah, but it’s in the rules lol it could’ve been avoided by checking the rules.

    You’re right about having less than 1% of the bans be innocent, I’m not defending people being banned at all, honestly it’s their own fault, but the number of bans has been going up which in return affects server population.
    Yes, the server is better off without these people, but it still affects the server in a both positive and negative perspective.

    If this somehow came true, we will need to wipe the server like every 2 years to stay "fresh"
    I seriously don't see any benefits in having a server wipe since all the price and items are pretty much set now

    Wiping the server would be like making Royals into a brand new private server, killing off the player base

    Note: When I got nothing to do, I on my Islander to give newbie quests etcs (and snail shells to mages)
    There's surely something to do, it's ridiculous to do server wipe just because you got bored

    Sorry but you can't be playing, killing the playerbase is impossible, almost everyone online is fucking AFK lol

    On a serious note, this thread is move active than the server, think of that.
    And for everyone trying to say it's 600 online blabla, tell me how many % of them are afk
    take the hint, and open your fucking eyes
    WE WANT WIPE

    You want a wipe, there are clearly people here who have voiced their opinions who don't as well. I wouldn't go as far as to say "we"..

    would be nice to see how many of people that says yes for wipe
    are not banned and got char with at least few prequest for boss ,other quest done
    and char 135+lvl

    i don't think it's fair for someone that done "nothing" to be able to cast vote

    Who the hell is the "we" lol
    I also don't know why you feel this thread is more active than the server

    I'm commenting cause you refused to face the reality that the majority of players do not want a wipe

    Besides opened my eyes, my client is also opened - have you actually online and walked around to see how many people are training instead of insisting that there're people afking???

    There are people online right now, this moment - to find boss runs like Zakum, Krex, CWKPQ (maybe even Horntail)

    Please online and look around, the players are still playing

    Honestly I'm not trying to sound elitist here but seriously do you even have a level 200 char? Do you even have 100bil+ in gear? If you're answer is no to both of these your opinion really doesn't hold much of any value because you clearly don't avidly play the game. Which is completely fine but if your main argument is that there's nothing to do on this server anymore and you haven't achieved either of those things it just makes you sound foolish. There's plenty of other private servers out there that you can play that are active and fresh.

    I don’t think they’re being salty, it’s more like they’re astounded by the rubbish you spew, holy shit do you even have half a brain cell?
