Profil3

What is Profil3?


Profil3is a social-networking website for Maplestory created by MrBasil. It opened in early 2007. Many people from MrBasil's most popular website, BasilMarket, a site for auctions and trading in MapleStory, joined the site when it opened. In late 2008, multiple other MMORPGs were added to Profil3 to accommodate users from its sister site, MMOTales. Few MMOTales users actually migrated to Profil3, though. Even though it is technically based around MMOs, Profil3 is a place for blogging and posting almost anything. It is exempt from the rules of its "brother" site, Basilmarket. For example, memes are common place, as is flaming, and swearing. One even asked Mindstormer, before he resigned as a moderator for Basilmarket whether there is a rule for swearing. He replied "There is no rule for that."

Profil3 is dead
Profil3 began dying less than a year after its release, probably due to the end of summer vacation. The site never fully recovered; Profil3 traffic hasn't reached its pre-2008 levels since.
