    How did you interpret "complaining without offering any solutions" as "complaining because you don't want to do it"?

    You want HP washing removed, yet you literally don't offer any ideas on how implementation could work. It gives off the sense that you never thought it through and are complaining for the sake of complaining. Here, I'll throw you a bone and give you some ideas that have been brought up in the past and the counter-arguments for them.

    Decrease boss damage and let HP washing be an option for comfort.

    • Changing boss mechanics defeats the purpose of a GMS-like v62 server.
    Add additional options for HP gain.
    • Implemented through rings.
    Flat increase to HP of all existing characters on the server and adjust natural HP gain curve.
    • Tampering with the entire database is difficult.
    • How would compensation work for characters that have already gone through washing to 30k HP work (i.e. some Warriors)?
    Use the hPApUsed value within the SQL database to refund resets.
    • As above, not advisable to modify entire database.
    If you have any viable ideas for implementation, it would be an interesting discussion topic. But right now you've just come into the server, guns blazing on a mechanic that is difficult to address years into the lifespan of a server, offer 0 potential solutions to it, ignore everything people say, and you're surprised that people have a negative perception of you?

    Like I said, a moderate amount of HP washing really isn't that bad and there's a freaking 1k HP item in the game that doesn't take up a key item slot now. It's not like you're aiming for 30k HP on a ranged attacker, in which case yes it would be pretty cancer. Honestly, have you maybe considered that maybe a low rate v62 server isn't right for you? It literally sounds like you want to play MapleStory but not deal with all of the issues inherent to v62 and low rates.
