Hello Maplers,

Seeing how our recent server upgrade has been quite successful in reducing player lag and substantially increasing our server uptime, we would like to announce a new change to our server updates. Rather than continuing to perform unscheduled restarts whenever the server performance becomes too unplayable, our new upgrade gives us the freedom to plan server updates far in advance without too much concern for a poor gameplay experience as a result of lag.

Thus, we will now attempt to give many days of advanced notice before any future server maintenance sessions, so everybody knows when an update/restart is coming. We will also most likely begin performing weekly server checks to patch minor bugs and ensure that everything still runs smoothly.

We know that most players have not been big fans of the unscheduled restarts of the past, so we hope that this change will be for the better and improves your MapleLegends' experience .

Thanks for the continuous support, and Happy Mapling!

Hello Maplers,

We will be performing a scheduled maintenance on Thursday, July 9, 2015. It will last approximately 1-4 hours. We will be upgrading our server host from a 1 GB RAM VPS to 32 GB RAM Dedicated Server. Our setup will also be getting a makeover, which means there may be some new issues appearing following our upgrade. Please report them if you run into any and we will fix these over the coming days. This upgrade should increase our uptime significantly, while reducing latency and lag, which should hopefully provide you with a much better performing and stable gaming experience.

Hello Maplers,

After some minor miscommunication issues between some players today, please note the MapleLegends Staff's stance regarding any future ambiguous deals, such as leeching. Leeching is almost entirely the responsibility of you as a player. You must be very clear and specific regarding what you ask for, whether it be where the leeching takes place, the scheduling of the leeching, or any other conditions.

Here are a few helpful tips. When making a leech deal as a buyer/seller, please do the following:

1. Always specify. If you ask for 5 hours of leeching, be sure that both the buyer and the seller understand and agree to the time frame in which this shall take place. For example, if you are a buyer and you want 5 hour leech on same day, be sure to make it clear to the seller that those are your conditions, and that he/she agrees to those conditions.
2. Always take a screenshot of your agreed upon deal in case any problems and issues appear, such as scams. While the MapleLegends Staff will not active get involved in deals, we will enforce rule 3.2 of our Terms of Service and give punishments to players for scamming if clear evidence is provided that one of the parties is guilty.
3. We highly recommend not making large deals. For example, if you 21 hours of leeching over the course of 7 days, we recommend paying on a per-session basis as opposed to all at once. For example, if the seller leeches you 3 hours a day, pay him/her for those 3 hours, over the course of the 7 days, as opposed to for 21 hours on the first or last day.

Clear communication, and evidence of an agreement is essential in these situations. Without evidence of specifics and an agreement, the MapleLegends Staff cannot do anything to help you. Thank you for understanding!
