They have to realize that these people drive NX sells, even if it is them buying NX with their mesos, someone is paying for the NX. As far as why I still play, I have adjusted the way I play the game and do find enjoyment in it still. Sure I do not play to the extent I used to, but it is still a good distraction for an hour or so a day. Honestly these players do not effect my game play anymore, so as long as they are not personally effecting me I do not care.
I've been trying to have this mentality since I started playing MS again like a month ago, but yesterday, a friend I met over a year ago, before I had quitted, was unbanned after abusing the bounty hunter event. He told me how he abused it to the point he got around 500 cubes and how his account was intact as it was before he was banned. That is when I realized, this pomegranate does indeed affect me, by making the whole pineappleing month I've invested on my chaacter into such a waste of time and making whatever I've accomplished during such time too insignificant.
It's not about comparing myself with others, its about realizing I've been struggling to grasp whatever power boost out of the game I can get without NX or being able to fight the couple bosses that drop worthy stuff, while the bastard next to me puts a few hours into some exploit and gets months if not a whole year worth of work ahead of me with no impact at all. Makes playing maplestory in any other way than a social tool into such a waste of time that is disgusting.
