Maple Story and Hiow It Ruined Society

[carmen510]

I've played Maple Story, and I thought it was cool once, but now it sucks, its repetitive. How it ruined society is that my old school had this 'cool group' of kids who played Maple Story. The rest were those who didn't. And most of these cool kids played 4 hour sessions, and most of them at one point had a 24-hour or more session. This 'cool group' shunned those who didn't play MS, they were considered uncool and nerdy. Lawl, you waster 4 hours on a crappy 2D of Ragnarok Online and you spend money (One person spent $80 for NX Cash) on the game and you call those who don't play nerds? That's just sad.

I think they're the oens being shunned and called nerdy.

They are a blight upon the name of Nerdom! Burn em all!

You are not considered a nerd until you have lived my life. Proud of it.

So the cool kids are the ones who waste their lives in front of a MMORPG? Perchance you might live in an alternate universe or a an odd numbered dimension?

For real. If you live in a place where MORPG's are cool to talk about in public, I want to move there.

No, the only 'cool' RPGs were those like Runescape and Maple Story. WoW and other RPGs like it were considered 'uncool'.\

And although I didn't live in an alternate universe, it felt like it.

You might like South Korea then, I assume they talk about them since they make so many nd play so much.

Pfft... no way in hell I'm learning Korean.

They pay good money for people to go and teach English in many, many countries.

I would still probably need to know Korean, plus, I hate oriental food.

Both extremely good reasons.And I agree, oriental food is gross (although, it's all "americanized" here, even if it's cooked by Asians).

Not all of it, fried rice is okay and Peking Duck is probably one of the best foods.
