However, phone confirmation is maplestory mobile mesos much harder to get around. It may be as simple as responding to a text message, or receiving a telephone call and moving through an automated method (eg. "Punch in your pic to verify that you're the one who created this account.") , so that nobody is excluded if they do not have a cellphone.Afterward, NexonNA simply needs to need this on all newly created reports.

They also must connect each telephone number to a particular account. If that account receives a ban, so does the telephone number. In this manner, once a bot account is banned, it is going to require a new phone number to generate a new account. Phone numbers, while plentiful, are far far less plentiful than ip addresses are. It's trivial to get a new ip address, takes mere moments, but getting a new phone number is much more work, and also capital intensive.

This places a huge barrier which only gets more successful over the years (as an increasing number of telephone numbers are blocked) against bot accounts. However, it doesn't hamper legitimate players at all (because, honestly, in case you have a computer that can run MS you've got access to a phone of any kind).

I understand that there are https://www.mmogo.com/Maplestory-m/Mesos.html some disadvantages, but I don't believe they're large enough to justify not implementing this method. The biggest drawback I can see is a bot/meso farmer uses your contact number and gets it banned until you try to produce your account. If that's the scenario, there might be a fairly intensive way to clear a phone number (it might have to be more intensive to be an effective ban).
