I like the pokemon style, like the old games ruby, emerald and sapphire. I used to play them growing up. Of course I've seen the maplestory, and I do think the style and quality is very good. But I didn't copy anything -.-

rip or not the quality on this is pretty bad, I'm going to send back for that reason alone.

the fact that it's obviously at least influenced by the maple story sprites, and you've acted oblivious rather than admit this similarity, is grounds for suspicison though.

 haha, no I meant, why did he think it was deformed

 "deformed"?

Looks like a deformed maplestory template to me. 

it's not from maplestory

 This is of Maple Story, isn't is?

If no, it's very similar, and, I think, you have to give the credits.
