MapleStory Community Confused By The Firing Of Their Community Manager

Unexpectedly, MapleStory's community manager KThxBaiNao was let go from Nexon America without warning. Oh Nexon. What have you done?

Based on the official thread and Reddit reaction, nobody is pleased with the decision. Looks like KThxBaiNao was a solid community manager, and those are hard to find. You typically want to keep the people who interact well with your playerbase, because it takes a special kind of personality to manage a community well. We wish KThxBaiNao  the best of luck in his future endeavors.
