Patch extraction info was posted by haha for v.70 on his forums, soon afterwards his site went down. leaving only word from the few people who got to see the data.
CWKPQ goggles upgraded (might be gacha only) Item description: "Description: Strange eyewear that allows vision in multiple dimensions.
A short inscription states: "Who says the goggles do nothing?"
Hsalf's hat: (CWKPQ - might be gacha only) Cake boss is back (in some type of mini dungeon/event dungeon) there are 23 new quests large cash shop sale coming Quest UI changes (more info in game for quest help, possible tie to monster book) MW30 from HT (though may not be "released" in this patch, may mean were getting JMS update? mw20 = zakum, mw30 = ht/PB)
quest to get PQ boss cards info: "You can "buy" Special cards once a day with Maple Leaves. the first
boss is Mano, and it took (in KMS) 500 leaves. Then Stumpy was 1,000,
Deo was 1,500, etc. The amount needed for each boss went up by 500.
You
do this via the guy Tienk in Lith Harbor. You can get King Slime and
the other PQ boss cards in this way (Every special card except those
two event mobs I believe.) The only catch is that you must be at least
within 10 levels of the boss to buy it. So, to get King Slime you'd
have to be at least 30."

While I’m returning to the game in some capacity, I’m returning for a pure fun factor. I will not devote the amount of time I once did to the game/guild but I will put enough time and effort in to once again grow the guild and increase activity. Given that I returned to only play when I have the time or feel like devoting time to the game I no longer plan to micromanage people or issues, if I have a shorter fuse it’s because of this.
I wrestled with the idea of leaving the guild and joining up with others to avoid having maple eat up any large amount of my time but I’ve found many of the guilds existing members too complicated to part with. Given how many of you stayed I feel it’s important to try and reorganize the guild. Many have also been concerned over how inactive the server has become, not knowing what they would do if the guild continued to deteriorate.
The following is what I feel is important to get the guild going, I ask members participate however possible! Suggestions and comments are of course always welcomed.
Guild morale:
Trash the guild, you're out. I’m not going to deal with drama and past issues. History is just that, history. I ask that current members support the guild by advertising our site/helms on shops, forums and in game. If you have a friend you would like to recommend joining the guild, pleasing wait and few days before doing so. Be active with the guild and site (to stay on top of news/planned events) and be more communicative! The site is here for a reason, if you can’t find me online message or post here.
Zakum:
Beginning this week (May 4th - 10th) OR next week (May 18th - 24th), I will begin re-hosting zakum runs. I plan to host three days a week until activity in the guild and or server picks up. The three days will be Monday, Wednesday and Friday. DD or another JR may decide to host on other days or weekends.
Due to the overall inactivity level of the server/guild I plan to look for a more broad based squad for zakum runs (that I will be hosting). First priority will always be given to guild members, followed by C'est la vie members and finally, friends of the guild who would like to join the run/squad.
A post will be put up later if you have a friend who would to zakum periodically with us. (4th job only please). Sign up for the weeks run (that i will be hosting) will be posted every weekend here and on BBS for early sign up.
CWKPQ:
Any run will be scheduled before hand and most likely in tandem with C'est la vie.
Horntail:
look into joining bello squad or wait for the activity level to pick up. If things become more lively DD will attempt a run. We currently have the funds to pay for run(s). I plan to MTS some old items to raise nx for the guild.
Guild bank:
I plan to assess the bank and handle past splits/old item sales over summer with also expediting the splits process for future boss runs to avoid issues.
Member assessment:
We will assess the current members in the guild to determine if they should remain or be kicked for the sake of; downsizing, shedding inactive members. This will fully depend on the activity level of a member, prospects of their return.
Recruitment:
Open recruitment, changed application process with focus on new members who are looking for a community guild to enjoy the game with. Applicants looking to benefit with items/meso will be weeded out; there will be no more Mr. nice moto. I will no longer be involved in "maple drama" and sort out your issues. I will kick new members freely if they cause trouble. I want team players who are friendly, active and will accept some level of responsibility in the guild and will work towards its betterment.
No more storing recruits in other guilds.
I plan to reopen recruitment myself in a few days.
Lastly I want to thank the members who stayed with the guild (and supported each other) during its downtime. For me, it has disproved the fodder about the guild not having any true ties with each other. Personally I find the guild refreshing with fewer members and focused around members who truly enjoy the guild. I look forward to working, playing and seeing you guys in game, again! (BBS/forum will be cleaned, scrubbed and updated. out with the old, in with the new D:)
Note: some users may not be able to login to the site; i plan to fix user accounts over the next day or two. if you are having issues please comment this news post with your IGN.
• C'est la vie members are welcome on the site and may have full access.
Message or contact me (IGN: motomage) and I'll be happy to upgrade your
account.
• A skype group buddy list has been added to the left. The list has been put up to better communication. If you would like to participate please tell me and i will add you to the list.
It will show only forsaken members and friends of forsaken your skype name and status, protectinbg your overall privacy on skype and the website. Clicking the skype bar next to the name will let you message that user.
Aside from giving me the OK to add you to the list you must change your privacy settings in skype to let people view your status online.
The guild website will be relaunched as part of a guild reorganization. Site will be down randomly over the next few days. Most pages will be a mess and need updating!
The Brazilian IP ban seems to be an error and nexon is working on it. (given that viet/brazil ip's were already banned in 2008 to bar new players/accounts)
posted on nexon forums:
Hey guys,
We're currently looking into it so hang tight guys. We'll post more information once available.
Hi everyone, its moto (motomage). Tristan will now have access to the site as an admin to update. we appreciate everyone being so understanding while many of the JR's are inactive currently.
while i don't know of everything that's occurred in the guild over the past few months i know their has been some drama and a few people have left, hopefully once some JR's are active again we can handle these situations.
if you are a member who left please contact me via here or private message/forums as to why. i give we have had a lack of communication about the guild from me and other JR's and i do apologize for that. hopefully in the coming months we can reorganize the guild leaders to get the guild in working order again.
that said, i know for me personally that i will never be able to devote the time i once put into maplestory, again. i will however be able to come on enough to operate some bossing and guild operation.
i have also heard the game has become hacker infested again and in turn has made boss running difficult, stick it out guys!
i hope everyone is doing great and that life is treating you well!
~ moto edit: old items from zakum and ht runs are still being held and have NOT been sold. selling these items and distributing the mesos for these items at the present time would be difficult given; JR's going inactive for the past few months, current inactivity of the main leaders due to school/life, contacting people who have quit; people who are inactive for split pick up, finding and gathering lists for everyone who attended and what items belong to what run due to some people being MIA.
hopefully sometype of resolution will araise in the coming months to see the disturbution of these items. (this only effects a small portion of zakum drops from november 08 and ht runs from september to november 08, or five ht runs in total, all other meso, old and current was and has been given to dd or handed out)
if you have an issue regarding forsaken and meso/items, please contact me by emailing forsakenguild@gmail.com
