Mabinogi Celebrates New Year: Offline Indefinitely
Given the recent malicious activity that has been taking place in-game, it is with much disappointment that we announce that we will take the Mabinogi game service offline temporarily while we work to remedy these issues.
This isn’t the first time Nexon has shut down Mabinogi to combat real world trading and bots, they did it back in October for somewhere around a week. Not that hearing one of Nexon’s games having problems with real money trading and rampant botting is surprising, to say the least, but hearing that the publisher is making some tough decisions to eradicate the trouble makers is worth an ear.
Mabinogi went down yesterday before 7pm pacific with no estimated time to return. We will update with a new post when more information is available.
Please do know that we do not make this decision lightly. In light of all the tickets and forum posts (which we do read) of this malicious activity, we feel that we have no choice but to take the game down in order to prevent any further malicious action.

Nexon: $1.2 Million and All Proceeds
I’ve said it already, and I will continue saying it: The outpour of support from MMO developers and the community toward Japan has been absolutely overwhelming. Already we have seen support from Square Enix, Sony Online Entertainment, CCP, Hi-Rez, and NCsoft, and the list just keeps on growing.
Nexon today announced a two-tiered plan to send aid to Japan, via select relief agencies including the Red Cross and Doctors Without Borders. On the first tier, the company has donated $1.2 million USD in initial corporate contributions. But that’s not all. Players can have a direct effect on the second tier of contributions via the game’s cash shop:
In addition to Nexon’s donation, from March 14 through March 20, Nexon America will be donating 100 percent of the proceeds from the sale of many of our in-game items to the Red Cross for the Japan Earthquake and Pacific Tsunami disaster relief efforts.
The following games are included in the charity movement:
