  That is certainly a....provoking advertisement for the grindfest that is Maplestory.

  I love the ad: Hate school? Hate work? Play Maple story.

  It's what we all think, right?

  The message will not corrupt youth and the working class, however, it's just funny.

  well if you give them both up for that game then you are desperate for a game.  Maple story is not a very good game to start with, its really shabby

  OMG, don't you know what that advertisement is about?  If you hate it then play Maple Story.  You will find something else to hate more and not hate work or school so much.

  I'm pretty sure that I saw an Ad on the back of a recent EGM for Maple Story which had "Run Away from Home" in it.
  
  I really don't know what they are trying to accomplish with such ads.

  Am I the only one that feels there is something seriously wrong with that advertisement? Yes I know if your dumb enough to actually take its advice and not work and not get a decent education just to play some online games means you probably deserve to fail at life. But to advertise like that just seems wrong, its like exciment to fail.
  Just a opinion...

  "You need to stay in school and study hard, if you don't, you get stuck in Iraq"

  Well, although I do agree the advertisement is sending the wrong messege, there are people in this world that gets totally consumed by videogames, hell I can name a few dozen that are like that in my school and they fail in many of their courses.

  In my opinion, games are a great way to relax and have a little fun (much better than watching tv or a movie, in my opinion anyway). But, if a person lets their obsessions destroy their life then they really have a problem.

  But, I'm pretty sure most people that see that ad is intelligent enough to tell what is fantasy and what is reality.

  The current owners of Maplestory are far more concern about advertising than actually improving the real game... It's turned to crap and EVERYONE hacks. If you don't hack it's extremely hard to level in the long run.

  Anybody who plays Maplestory who is NOT a hacker of the game is an idiot.
  
  Grinding IS NOT FUN. If you like grinding, learn Korean and download their games.
  
  That advertisement made me laugh as well..

  Perhaps, or perhaps not.
  
  

  Education is valuable to everyone, and some sort of schooling will gear up people for a better chance at life than if they did not.
  
  
  
  Because dumb cuntz are all over the place, and I'm friggin' tired of it.
