Hi RageZone Community,

My name is Thomas Eklund. I've been working on this private server for quite a few weeks now, but it's going nowhere at the moment. I had a private server called NostalgicMS open from July to September. It was based on our self-made v.62 source. Unfortunately, we had stability issues so finally we had to shut the server down. I'm back to reopen NostalgicMS at v.83, but I'm going to put some work into it before opening it to the public.

Please keep in mind that you're applying because you'd like to help us growing as a server. :)

I'm interested in an old, nostalgic server with the rates of 3x Experience, 1x Mesos and 2x Drop. During the time I had NostalgicMS open, we had the rates 1x Experience, 1x Mesos and 1x Drop. People often complained about both the Experience rate and the Drop rate. Therefor, I have changed them. The mesos rate is going to stay as 1x to keep a stable economy. The server shall have a level cap of 200 and a mesos cap of 9,999,999,999 mesos.

I honestly don't know if this is possible but if it was, it'd be epic. Like mentioned already, the server is going to be based of a v.83 source. At v.83, Nexon hadn't implemented the higher resolutions yet (1024x768 or 1280x768). I'm going to strive for getting this resolution at our v.83 server. I have some WZ modifications ready, this includes the Maple Island from v.1 and Pre-BB maps generally, but with the new epic GMS style of backgrounds and objects. The server shall have the Item.wz from v.83, but including all new Chairs.

I do already have permanent hosting for the server at a good host location with 2x Xeon and 8 GB RAM.

Classes and Town Maps:

Re: MapleStory - Team Recruitment for NostalgicMS

Nope, it didn't have either Potential or Enhancement. ^^

"Enhancement scrolls and potentials scrolls is a big no no"

Why are you talking about it then? It's almost nearly impossible to implement the potential system to v83 even if you would want to implement it. Just saying.

Oh, I thought of opening the server at a higher version when I wrote this text. I will remove that part.

Updated staff positions.

Re: MapleStory - Team Recruitment for NostalgicMS

-Application withdrawn, free to offer my service to other serious servers-

Name: Fredrik S.
Age: 20
Timezone: GMT +1
Skype ID: Will add you :)

I am applying for: Forum moderator

Tell us about yourself: Well I'm a 20 year old student, located in Sweden. I have a passion for server developments and project managing. I'm a down to earth person with a kind soul, but a determined mind. I always make sure to give everything my all, and I'm not a stranger to challenges and I always set clear goals with what I'm doing to make sure I achieve the best results possible. In my spare time, computers and software research is high on my list of favourite things to spend time on. I also read a lot of articles and such about pretty much anything that's related to IT and computer software. But I also enjoy a social life and is always on the go with my friends, while I study long distance courses. I'm a reliable and mature person with lots of humour :)

Why do you want to be apart of our staff team: I think I can contribute to many aspects of the community, not only as a moderator of the forum, but as a player like annyone else. I can see things in a variety of perspectives, which is a very important skill when it comes to moderating and administrating both forums, but also anything else that comes in my way :)

Why should we pick you before someone else: To say it simple; I'm an asset. And unlike my opponents I stand for my promises and live up to the expectations! :)

For how long have you played MapleStory: Roughly 7-8 years :) I'm what they call a "Veteran".

Have you ever been staff for a MapleStory server before: Yes, including OdinMS, LocalMS, NinjaMS and countless more smaller servers.

If you have proof, please attach it here: Well I don't really have anything left, and if so it's on my PC, right now I'm writing from my iPad. But my signature is one proof I guess :)

Seeing as I'm being completely ignored on both Skype and here for 2 days straight regarding my application, I will assume that this isn't as serious as you might have thought.

I'm going to assume that this server will never get off the ground, and that if it does, it's going to be a very short period of time.

Good luck on future projects, but improve your communications skills.

@Sjogernx He is serious about this server. Maybe he has denied our application and hasn't said anything.

Maybe that is the case, but he gives the impression to not being serious by handling it like he does.

If being denied, he should at least respond with "Sorry, I don't need your services right now, you have been denied" or whatever response is suitable.

It's not a proper way to handle applications.

Ok, I am just letting you know as to what I think

Apologies about the delay, but I'm still reviewing the applications. I have currently three moderator applications but only two spots open. I will leave the final decision tonight or tomorrow.

I'm going to withdraw, so you could go ahead and give those two spots to the others :) I will try my luck somewhere else!
