Posted this recently but It went longer than I expected and I would like to make this an open letter to people who can actually do something about this.The easiest way I can express all my views in a paragraph is the following: The server has always lacked gameplay and plugins features compared to competition. Every server needs something unique to fight for a consistent player base. We had a very grown up community who experienced more than just the vanilla game and enjoyed mixing with personalities and the occasional fun drama. Yes I will concede that this came at the displeasure of some of the younger players but collateral damage I guess. Most of us had outgrown the core game but the fact that there was something in common with a lot of like minded gamers kept us logging on. The staff have constantly underperformed due to lack of resources and sometimes poor decisions. No one ever had a problem with this though as they were just part of the community like the players. Whether people will admit this or not: the community was the main and virtually only feature of the server, the staff were there to ensure its upkeep and slight control. By deciding to ban these 'toxic' yet fun players (under conventional rules even though our server was not a conventional one) you decided to take on the task of keeping the server fun and entertaining in the absence of these big community players who used to keep it lively. You have 100% failed to do this due to lack of listening to suggestions and staff not doing their jobs, this is why all the complaints are firing out even when these problems have been present for ages. I appreciate that your plugins may not suffice to be able to take this workload on but this is what you chose. You decided to move the sense of community equality away from the server by establishing a hierarchy of staff controlling players more closely. Im not saying anything the staff has done is completely wrong and I think under most servers all of our bans are fair but we wernt like most servers but you still tried to force these generic friendly guidelines onto us for 12 year olds even though we were all older. This is what annoys me that whenever people try to point this out we just get shot down for being negative and toxic. A mass unban and an admittance that you cocked this up a little is the last option you have to try stop this decline. Don't tell me about server activity because player numbers is not that same as an enjoyable community. I would rather play with 10 people all speaking in chat than 30 where only 12-13 do. This is why Luigi's server worked as he was so lazy (sorry) that the server rans its self and people found the lack of censorship unique and fun I regret a lot of my actions and criticisms of the server but they have all been in an attempt to support it as I really want this place to stay what it once was. Most of the people ive met online who I have actually managed to make good friends with (and even lucky enough to meet) was solely to the credit of what Mush managed to create which is why so many of the old players are hanging on in hope of a return. |

This belongs in the suggestions section - but I do agree with pretty much everything in it. |

I might donate 30 to unban everyoneThat's pretty cheap considering luigi's money-whoring personality. (big fan btw, as a jew I look up to people like you.) |

I'm willing to split the cost if possible. We'd both pay $15-25 USD that way.Also why is [Helper] cheaper than [Architect]? |
