Dear Maplers,

The MapleStory servers were brought back live this morning at 9:30AM Pacific after addressing a serious meso exploit that was damaging the Maple economy. The resultant exploit was of severe enough consequences, that we were forced to rollback all characters that have logged into the game from July 11 when the exploit was first discovered until the afternoon of July 13, when the servers were brought down. This means any player activities - leveling, Cash Shop purchases, etc. up to July 13th, 2010 has been returned to July 11, 2010.

We deeply apologize to players who have lost items or levels as a result of this change. While this decision protects the game in the long run by lowering the cost of items, we know it has immediate impact on many of our players over the last 2 days.

This is why we're rolling out an extensive list of compensation efforts, including close to 48 hours of 2x EXP and Drop events. We've listed all compensation efforts below for your reference.

-- Cash item extension
-- 5,000 Maple Points for users that logged in between 7/11/2010 and 7/13/2010.
-- The Golden Temple will be available for one extra week. Golden Temple ticket items will also be available with the Golden Temple Invitation on sale and all the Golden Temple packages offering double the number of invites than before.
-- Vega's Spell will remain on sale for one extra week.
-- One A Day Sale will also be extended for a week. Make sure to check out the daily item!
-- 2x EXP and Drop events on the following dates:

        a. Wednesday, July 14th  12 PM - 6PM Pacific Time (3 PM - 9 PM Eastern)
        b. Thursday, July 15th  12 PM - 6PM Pacific Time (3 PM - 9 PM Eastern)
        c. Friday, July 16th  12 PM - 6 PM Pacific Time (3 PM - 9 PM Eastern)
        d. Saturday, July 17th  10 AM - 10 PM Pacific Time (1 PM - 1 AM Eastern)
        e. Sunday, July 18th  10 AM - 10 PM Pacific Time (1 PM - 1 AM Eastern)

Once again, we thank you for your understanding and patience while we were dealing with this issue.
