Attention Maplers,

With our most recent update on April 21, 2021, we flagged a number of low-level characters that have not been logged into for many years. Characters that meet all of the following criteria will be deactivated, in advance of being fully removed during our June update, tentatively scheduled for June 9, 2021:

• Lv. 61 or lower.
• Have not logged into the account since December 15, 2016.
• Are not Guild Leaders, Alliance Leaders, or have unclaimed cash items within the Auction House.

If you have a character that falls under those restrictions, it will be in a Deactivated state. If you wish to preserve them, simply log into your account once prior to the June 2021 update, and they will be unaffected by this clean-up process.

Note: This process will result in the names of the deleted characters being available for use by others.

Thank you,

- The MapleStory Team
