Hmm... have you tried banging your head on the computer monitor?

No, no, don't do that, LOL.

Try posting your question on MapleStory Street. It is another forum run by Nick.

As long as you have a cable or DSL connection, it'll take one hour max. Even with a bogged down computer that has little room left on it. Few months ago I had to re-download it just cable, while basically having the entire computer space taken up, took me about 40 minutes to do so.

It is entirely someone's opinion if it is more fun than VMK or not. I would say no, because I found it boring and tedious having to grind real-time. For example: RuneScape grinding is okay with me, since it does the work for me; but MapleStory is different since you have to be paying attention 100% of the time hitting ctrl each time you attack.
Control is not the only key you use to attack. You have your entire keyboard with the exception of the num pad to change around your key settings. I agree with you that grinding is boring, but it's definately better than having something else doing the leveling for you.

Quote:
You can chat, but NOT like VMK. When I played, people were saying some inappropriate things. I don't know if there are chat filters or not, but if there are, people can get around them. And that brings me to another point; it appears to be very easy to hack. Therefore I'm sure there is a much higher chance of being hacked than in VMK.
There is a filter, as I said in my previous post. Though as you said, it's very easy to bypass. It's nothing like the VMK or Toontown filter, since it's not run by Disney. So if anyone who reads this that doesn't play, be aware that you will run into people cursing in the game. If you're lucky, you won't see it too much. In my short time this year playing, I rarely saw it. Though not everyone is as lucky as me.

Quote:
You have a friends list. It would be hard to make friends when grinding since you wouldn't have time to type, though.
Over my 3 1/2 years of playing, I've made hundreds and hundreds of friends through my training and grinding.

Quote:
Not similar at all. Almost completely different, actually. The only point of the game is fighting, from what I saw. It is grinding, grinding, and more grinding. However, unlike some other grinding games (such as RuneScape or Oblivion), you only fight. No other skills to grind, so it gets boring very fast if you have low patience. The point of view is also different. You'll see what I mean from the screen shots of MS on Nexon's site.
As is every single other MMORPG. You have to have patience, and actually want and like MMORPGs.

As said by Astro in his last post, I'd suggest going to MapleStory Street. It's a forum run by Nick for MapleStory. We gladly help anyone who needs it.
