I was going to get 5th job, but once I realized how long it would take and the amount of lag, I abandoned Maplestory once again. It doesn't have much to do with the tediousness and the amount of time it would take as much as it does my feelings of Maplestory in general. If you're playing, happy mapling! Good luck to all! #5th #job

@eternalmemory It would be reasonable for me to stay on one hour, but I did stay on for 2-3 hours to do those temple quests. But it was so laggy, that I couldn't fill the stones. With the lag, it make take like 4 hours each stone, not counting for the cooldown period between them. Without the lag, it would take like an hour or less to fill them on my Zero, and that's like 3 more hours. That's too long imo to spend on a game that I don't like because of the reasonable full-truth reasons you have listed.

Finishing the Temple-of-Time-Questline and getting to 200 is a reasonable-requirement in my opinion, as this is supposed to be an MMO! However, there are too many pieces of Equipments in this game that have additionally-more-Upgrading to be done on every-single-piece and there are no viable-way to do it but to Pay-to-Win for it or spend the whole-year to get to 1M-Range(and I got there before they nerfed this game, so you will certainly spend longer than a year!) only to beat the Bosses in this game that you couldn't beat before that drops absolutely-nothing! Given the state of this game "is" the unreasonable itself! Thus, doing these requirements are rendered so! I understand that MMOs are supposed to be grindy and a time-sink having have came from FFXI, Runescape, Ragnarok Online, and all those "traditional"-MMOs myself! I am used to the grinding! What I can't understand at all, is the unreasonabilities of this game having no meaningful-contents to do these and is bound for Pay-to-Win, gambling, and Events to slave-on to cover the flaws of this game! This game is purely-Pay-to-Win and offers nothing outside of that!The people that are left here, are the "whales" themselves! Nexon was once a company that were against Pay-to-Win! I know this because I came from pre-BB! They started to become greedy after the exploits of MTS and they could never change till today because of the people that keeps paying a very huge amount of money unreasonably everytime a Sale goes-on! Just look at all those whales in Henesys with a new-Haircut and Face every 2-weeks! The reason this game is able to survive for over a decade like Dracula, is because of all these whales! Not because the game is good when they started to went downhill after BB!

@eternalmemory I'm speaking of the 5th job advancement. I was going to do it because I didn't think it would take long, and I thought it was worth doing because it wouldn't take long, but I was wrong, and so it wasn't worth it to me.
I pray for your sisters! I like them both!

@Rtyu What free-content? As far as I know, they nerfed them to the point that nothing is farmable in a reasonable-amount of time! Free-content doesn't exist in this game(and if they do, they are almost-nil!) that the only-thing left in this game is Pay-to-Win! Rotational-Events and Sales are just another-way from them to get you to keep playing this game and keep paying for it! It is just ridiculous how everyone pays the $100 and more whenever a Marvel, Miracle-Time, Philospher-Book, and many of those Pay-to-Win-gambling-Events comes-out (and Royals!) that it is a marketing-success for Nexon! (it is almost-mandatory or your Account will suck! If you skip it, then you will wait for many months to even a year!) This rotational-strategy even works for the non-Pay-to-Win-Events(as there are nothing in this game even worth doing that are efficient!) that forces you to slave in this game and keep playing it, no matter how bad, broken, and outdated, this game is!
There are other MMOs that exists, I'll let you know that! I just feel bad for @Meiguihua for having to put up with this terrible-game! If only I can pull them out from this hell! I made some sisters in this game too(and some who already-quitted), you know! @firebolt just lives minutes-away from me! I want the best for them, so I just wish them all the best of their endeavors, whatever they decide to pursue! Seriously though, they can be playing a better-game than this!

@eternalmemory All those things are true, and trust me, I learned. I already uninstalled. I won't let the free content suck me in like some dirty hoo-ver!

@Rtyu I'm sorry to ask this, but haven't you learned enough? The problem with this game, is anything farmable, they always nerf or remove, so the game becomes more Pay-to-Win in general! I have been farming in this game and been grinding in it from the time that I have played it, does it always come to mind that it just doesn't work! Best way to make money in this game(and the only viable) is to waste a tremendous-amount of time Merching(which you need another-computer and a mule-Account to AFK and do it for you to avoid the inefficiencies) or to just simply Pay-to-Win and spend whenever a gambling-Event comes out! This game is full of gambling and full of RNGs to the point that this game is heavily-dependent in it! Not to mention that this game is very "event" and "sale" dependent that takes away progress from you if you miss to participate! The way the system works is not fair and the amount of Free-to-Play-content that are useful(such as farming, now that they nerfed the Elites) is so despicably-small that it is almost-nil! It is time that you learned and move-on! The people left that are playing it, are "whales" themselves! Tell me who get's to the top here without paying a large-sum of money? (it is not doable, hence Pay-to-Win!) People here just Henehoe(from the fact that there is nothing to do in this game if there are no Events), because they can afford to pay for this game! To add to that, the amount of uncontrolled-Mesos-selling! $3 per 1-Bil! Nobody get's banned from this, when in other MMOs, they will Mesos-sink! I have already put you in the right-direction and don't screw it up for yourself! FFXIV!
