i feel bad

poor mabinogi staff bin trying to fix the game for hrs i know the friend list was down but i didnt know it was this bad... i feel sorry and wish that we could do something

I agree. I mean people mostly hate nexon for poor servicing, mostly tickets...but overall I think they've been good to mabi in the beginning. but the only problem is the recent stuff with hacks and what not. At least they are taking their time until they get the job done. It's hard to keep a game running as it is in its current state. Course...there's always haters over this type of long maintenance period.

Also it wasn't just the friend list chat thing, but also Housing channels have been experiencing problems for the past month or so...@@.

And the bugs they don't fix (ie. G13's Bolt Cancel).

Honestly I'm pissed, and trying to vanquish my boredum won't work.

Do you think it may have something to do with Mabinogi Korea being shut down for over a few days?

'It had banned about 1,000 faulty accounts then.'

Reminds me of the Gold Dupe Glitch that banned over 2k players...

i know about the house and they knew about it but they can work on think one at a time like one thing a day so then they can think about and then fx it so then mabinogi player are happy and they dont have much to do everyday...:/

They might be trying to do the same thing (but more simplified) for NA.

I wonder how they plan to compensate if that happens...

Why would they need to compensate?

To make everyone happy?

Atleast this isnt Korea.... theyre down for 72 hrs. no questions asked. lol

I for one, am glad that this maint is taking so long. Sure I want to hit my level 70 before I RB n' all, but at least this time around the maint is going to be thoroughly done, as to relinquish all problems once and for all(Hopefully). On a side note, based on the KR article above, if it is in fact a/also a security update, I'll still be happy because that would imply less maintenance's of this scale. Oh and @Infrodude575 Why does NA need to compensate? They gave enough warning, in my opinion, and it's also f2p. Whenever they do compensate I find it quite generous.

Mabinogi Korea has been suspended for quite a while, as hackings and gold farming got pretty bad...

Something tells me both NA and KR incidents are quite related...

EDIT: NVM the site's back up...

Also, google mabinogi on the news section, you can tell that Nexon North America WANTS security specialists...

Like they aren't just undermanned in the first place, this also shows they are not specialized or professional enough in security management?
