Was this the outcome we wanted?

I don't think I'd want to stay active if everything I worked hard for was wiped. It takes a long time to train stats or gather resources. While I've watched friends go inactive or quit, one of the only things keeping me is knowing how much time I've spent building myself up here, and how stupid it'd be to waste it all. I understand not being selfish, and I'm all for a reset if it'll help the server, but there are going to be some people who won't bother coming back to rebuild.

Those are the people who most likely only ever cared about their "status" on the server and who can't accept change. Leaves room for other qualified people though .

1 word: AGREED 


Ever since the pixelmon server came up and I couldn't get it, I was really sad. And, once it came up, pretty much everyone left. Now only new people that stay are the ones on the server. I miss everyone in the old days when there were wars at spawn and the Mods and Admins talking about random stuff. I miss journeying with my friends on there that I never see now. Yes, I may have been busy with school, horses, horses on singleplayer, but I still miss them. Sometimes when I would check to see who is on, there is either no one on or just 2 new people that are somewhere random in the map. I seriously wish we could all get back together again. Please  . I just really miss everything... because no one is on, i've been playing on a different server, but that still got a little boring. Please do something about this  . I know everyone has been mad about what people say and they say that its stupid (Example:  "Wat u guyses say is stupid! This server is fine!") Not really. So, lets just come back to the server and relive the old days  . And this will be my mood:  . But if we can't...then I will be liek:  (lol). I just wish we could have like a server reunion or something like that. Please.. PLEASE... PWEASE  .

Of course the golden days are long gone. A lot of people, including me, left a long time ago.
I don't know how much pixelmon changed the server, but it seems like another reason the population is declining. I had a very good time on here, but at the end it just became boring. I have never missed the server after leaving. This was also after the "golden" days, which imo were the days when there were 30 people online most of the time.


The people that left were great and cant be replaced, but the server is not dead. I am NOT coming back, but if you want to "save" the server, you have to increase the amount of members. Since none of the old people are coming back you will have to get new people, though this will not feel the same as before, the generation of server members I belonged to is close to gone. Advertise on forums, idc, get new people, make them feel at home, make them get new people. Create a new generation.
Wipe mcstats if you have to, to encourage new people.


I mighht be wrong though, no idea, havent been here for months.

[ArchieSalt]

He is.

I think we should have a day where all the old players gets on again to try to get everyone on the server again

[synderfin]

Well I was talking to Zombie yesterday and he agreed with me that possibly the only way to recreate our large player base would be to employ all the same advertising techniques that Rigby did at one point. During that time the server had 64 slots and it was completely filled up and you couldn't connect. We even had to bump the slots up to 80.
Even though this is advertising to new members it will bring in enough players for the older members to come back and for the community to start flowing again.


Now, the downside of this is that it was very expensive. Donations have sort of halted and I don't know how much the server had left in credit but if we start building up to it players will come and they will donate.


I think this should be considered as it did work amazingly.

[Warmonger_2]

There are also cheaper means of advertising. I mean it can be harder and it will take a lot of work but I think just going out a spreading the word to friends and such can bring in a lot of people. Also I think the build projects may have sapped the players a bit at some point. I remember when everyone just wanted to build and people were getting in trouble and causing problems just to get on the build team. So maybe halting that or just finishing up a bit of it would be good. Or we could go back to the original map

Well, one thing 1ce said, and I agree is no advertising until the map is changed over.
