"Video game addiction is a real thing with many publicised cases -- particularly in South Korea. A two-year-old boy died in 2014 after his father left him unattended for several days to play video games. In 2010, a three-month-old child starved to death while her parents played a game, which ironically involved raising a virtual child, at an internet cafe for days."

(last few sentences in the article you linked).

I don't want to be the social warrior, but laughing about this is just wrong in my opinion. You are running a server, which hosts a (possibily very addicting) game, and making a joke out of the extremes of any addiction is terrible. Of course I realise this is in no way or form something you are trying to achieve, the opposite (providing a very enjoyable experience for any player joining this server) in fact, yet it could happen in maplelegends and being ignorant about it doesn't help anyone.

I have seen addiction in my close social circle, and trust me it is not funny at all.

Have a good day Kim, sorry for the rant.

 

dude

 

I have just been informed that Kim was only talking about the first 7 words of the title of the article ("Man crashes car into MapleStory developer's office"). Because I was unaware of this and though the comment made was on the article as a whole I would like to appologize to Kim, for argueing about something I simply misunderstood.
Thank you for explaining Poofcakes !
