<a href="http://www.twitter.com">Twitter</a> needs to be classified as an addictive drug, we think.  <a href="http://twitter.com/massively">We seem to be using it</a>, and we <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/05/22/the-daily-grind-do-you-follow-us-on-twitter-or-facebook/">just can't stop ourselves</a> anymore.  We keep telling ourselves that it's just a simple RSS feed where we're limited in what we can type out to others, yet we keep going back to that internet street corner, begging for just one more tweet...<br /><br />But hey, we've gotten company recently!  <a href="http://maplestory.nexon.net"><em>MapleStory</em></a> has <a href="http://twitter.com/MapleWorld">created their own Twitter page</a> as well, joining the rest of the world in answering the question "what are you doing right now?"  If you're interested in the 2D MMO, just drop by their page and sign up for their tweets to stay atop of in-game news.  Right now, they seem to be flaunting their <a href="http://twitter.com/MapleWorld/status/1941308630">recent gold farmer bannings</a> (remind us to never get on <em>MapleStory</em>'s badside), as well as <a href="http://twitter.com/MapleWorld/status/1929351984">talking to some of their fans</a> regarding their <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/maplestory"><em>MapleStory</em></a> achievements.<br /><br />Now, if you could excuse us, we feel we need to tweet again.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/05/29/maplestory-joins-the-wild-world-of-twitter/">MapleStory joins the wild world of Twitter</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Fri, 29 May 2009 16:30:00 EST.

Old school 2-D MMO <a href="http://lom.neofun.com/"><em>Land of Magic</em></a> has just recently made the jump from Korean only to Korean and English, and they're celebrating with two awesome bonuses -- <a href="http://www.neofun.com/web/news/?lyt=news&amp;bname=notice&amp;bpage=view&amp;news_seq=232&amp;curPage_list=1">double experience and double item drop rates</a>!<br /><br />Knowing for lightning fast leveling and a never ending amount of things to do, <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/land-of-magic"><em>Land of Magic</em></a> is an older MMO that has graphics in the vein of <a href="http://www.uoherald.com"><em>Ultima Online</em></a>.  Players can level their way all the way up to level 400 and beyond by using a creative <a href="http://lom.neofun.com/web/introduction/?lyt=introduction&amp;bname=uniquesystem&amp;bpage=rebirth">"rebirth" system</a>.  This allows players to level as one profession, then switch over to a new profession and keep some of the abilities of their old one.   In addition, each time you rebirth your character back down to level 1, the maximum level you can achieve increases by 2.  Thus, if you rebirth once, your new maximum level is 402.  Rebirthing also opens up new professions, such as the Necromancer and Demon King.<br /><br />Should you truly have tons of time on your hands, characters who can rebirth all the way to level 900 get to become demi-gods.  Literally, a demi-god.<br /><br />Their celebration will be continuing <a href="http://www.neofun.com/web/news/?lyt=news&amp;bname=notice&amp;bpage=view&amp;news_seq=234&amp;curPage_list=1">until May 3rd</a> and the game is free to play, so if you should have some extra time on your hands (or lots of time on your hands) go on over and see what's up with this new Korean MMO.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/04/14/land-of-magic-opens-english-server-offers-double-drop-rates-and/">Land of Magic opens English server, offers double drop rates and double exp bonuses</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Tue, 14 Apr 2009 20:00:00 EST.
