    What a fool I am. Why did I start playing private server again, and a low rate server at that. No matter how much I try to escape, the maple addiction always comes back. I blame it on my brother. I have washed characters with end game gear in different servers, but no -- he wanted to play this server SPECIFICALLY, and would not change his mind. He has the gall to force me to play a new server despite the fact that he's a casual who will probably quit soon, and I will keep playing for much longer.

    ...But who can blame him. He's a good boi. I enjoy the time I spend playing with him. In the end I chose to play. Also, this server is pretty fun. LOL

    I have so many memories with so many people in Maplestory private servers, but time makes everything so hazy. While I enjoyed myself and don't regret the time I spent playing Maplestory, this time, I wanted to record things. So that the time I spent isn't as hazy. So I can read this much later when I have quit for good and think to myself, "Oh, this was how it was. It was a good time."

    Since I'm taking the effort to write this, I figure I should set a goal for myself. My goal in this server is to make a "complete NL" and be "self sufficient".

    Everyone's definition of a "complete NL" is different. Here is my take:
    1. 30K HP / 5K MP. Able to experience all content, able to spam attacks without worrying about MP.
    2. All quests complete. Preferably, I want to be one of the top rankers in questing, but it is likely impossible, as more content may release more quests, and there are people who specialize in quests. At the very least, pressing Q should show no available quests. Helping the citizens of Maple World out as much as I can is a fun way to play this game.
    3. Monster Cards complete (Tier 11 Ring). (Edit: Rings only go up to Tier 10!)
    4. End game gear. This means at least 15,000 Prestigious coins’ worth of gear. That's a random number, but I'll set that as a goal.

    Everyone's definition of being "self sufficient" is also different. Here's my definition:
    1. Make either a BM or MM (will not call it an SE mule, SE lives matter) so that I don't have to beg for SE like a peasant. Preferably a character I will also wash to 30K HP.
    2. Make a Bishop for the same reason... to not beg for HS like a peasant. I want to wash the Bishop to 30K HP/MP if possible.
    3. Be able to clear low level bosses solo by triple clienting. This includes Zak, Krex, and Wulin (Jiaoceng).
    4. Not be reliant on a guild. I think I'll make my own guild and have no one join it... I'm sick of maple drama. From my 10+ years of private server experience, I think nothing causes maple drama more than a guild, so I refuse to join one. As an aside... I understand that sudden dev changes are frustrating. I understand that you want to get back at people who wronged you. But it is not the way. The community is small. You will meet the same people over and over again. You can agree to disagree with one another, of course. Healthy discourse is healthy discourse. But it is my humble opinion that fighting with intention to hurt other people, to prove that you are right will only lead to suffering. We all have the same goal in the end -- to enjoy this cute little mushroom game.
      ... I'll make friends though. Maple is no fun without friends to play with.

    It is very likely I will quit before being able to complete my goals. I don't recommend you read this, I think it will be boring. The updates won't be too often since it takes such a long time to hit the goals I want. But for the one or two people who may chance upon this post, and for myself, I'll try my best.

    Happy mapling, whoever you are, and wherever you are.
