can we have a maplestory private server? i mean we were already going to have one and @$^%@$% happened. i know defy and sk8ter (+others) is willing to code it and we do have testers so please consider making an official maplestory private server.

Not much point in making one with a small community and who's going to pay to host the server
There's someone to host the PS in the old plan, dunno what happened though -.-Quote:

I made a hamachi ps for logical gamers, but then LG went down and I deleted all the files :(. I am willing to help if anyone else wants to do one :)
that it was so gay because i had everything planned out, i even did a thread about applying for programming/testing and shit. then BAM lg does down -.-
ADMIN COME AND APPROVE THIS
This is going to get nowhere very quickly. Id just let this die a quick and easy death.
H20 why do you think this is going to go down? I think this would work. And with the right publicity this might even get more people on LG :/
Easy to say, but honestly, do you think it would actually happen?
I am going on christmas holidays soon. So I can help quite a lot ^^
It would have to be on a dedicated server. I know how private servers get, you open internet explorer and the server lags like a mo.
You'd have to really plan this out.
\/\/\/ H2O I think we got the dedicated server solved \/\/\/
And ofc we would plan this out, that's how we can get more people :). If it's bad all we will get is bad publicity and we don't want that.Quote:

I don't think any admins need to be involved unless they want to, maybe the programming team might like a whack at it.
The only experience i have with Maplestory private servers is (trys to remember) it's either new item design or importing redesigned items, i can't remember but it's something like that.
I coded my own server for a while, so I know a bit. I managed to change exp rate, money rate and item drop. I also made it so that nexon items would drop and changed some quest rewards and offered those GM hats and clothes. But that's about it.
I have also been a GM in about 11 PS that I've played on :)
Iv been a GM in quite a few back when i had my old PC. Now im running this amazing mac but i can't play any download games. haha.
But im getting a new mac for Christmas, might have to play this server if it comes out.
Yes I can take care of a dedicated server, depending on user activity on the server of course and even the domain if needed, but I'd have to see a considerable amount of member activity.Quote:

It would be great if you guys could get a dedicated team of coders to actually do this. It would be a great contribution to the site, and help gain popularity.
I'm sure the admins have enough to do already, lol.Quote:

Well, if you can pull it off.....Quote:

Your logic is a little flawed. You guys expect me to just provided 100% money for the dedicated server and then flow the rest of the money to LG only? I would rightfully have to take a percentage just to keep the dedicated server up 100% That's the only draw back if I'm to host, pay for a domain, and run a dedicated server all at once. So you guys need to get an admin in this thread ASAP. So we can get some of our questions answered.Quote:

Well all money made from LogicalMS would be used to pay for the bills for keep it running, and the extra would proceed to keep LG running. It should be a 100% non-profit. It's to help the community, without expecting anything in return.Quote:

Now that I seen this again I really want to start it up again.
go pm a admin or something (shane is probably a better idea then alex) and ask to start this as a project on LG. im pretty sure alex and shane both approved this before so it shouldnt be too hard.Quote:

I don't see why you'd need to hack when the ratios are all changed.
LG isn't a small community. And with something like this, the site would explode with new members. Look how fast a shitload of people came back the first 3 days. Lol.
I'd be a tester. I have a lot of free time but I have no experience in coding. xD I can icon and sprite to.
I for one suggest that we do not get involved with Maple Story private servers since they are really cracking down on them and i have seen ALOT of private servers who seemed unstoppable get crushed and sue'd and never hear from them ever again.
The last thing we need right now is more enemies and i for one believe that gaia is enough, the staff themselves dont really seem all that bad ... just a little overwhelmed with the outrageously high amount of jackass users they have.
your not fun :mad:Quote:

For now, we're not going to have any servers. When we finally release our first server, we will begin asking for help/suggestions on new servers.
Terribly sorry, and a good day to you. Thread Closed.
