RE: What happened to the server? - Hunterr - 10-05-2022 jesus its been a while. shame to see it go down like this. RE: What happened to the server? - Equinox - 10-05-2022 The entire mindset of players changed. 7 years ago, creative thinking used to be completely different and better than it is today. People used to fight over government secretary role and were willing to stand half-afk in overpolished V2D Nexus dupe waiting to either become victim in a huge raid or waiting to schedule a meeting with president. Today it's sometimes too boring and painful to even join as police sergeant to kickstart the government. It's a wonder how rival communities are even alive in Garry's mod in these days. Back in the days, Garry's mod used to be top of the art game. The Source physics engine was something innovative at a time, no games like that where you manipulate props to build your own bases and houses and later defend them while roleplaying as someone unique. Today, we don't have these kind of games anymore. Compared to today's trending games, Garry's mod feels outdated and old, building dupes can almost like a chore for most of the part. The creativity has boiled and refined down to tasteless basics. Most games today are "click and play within minutes", where playing on Fearless takes hours. Initially building your dupe/base, then roleplaying for hours on end. Doesn't go along well with today's average attention span. The number of people who play Garry's mod on daily basis might not have changed throughout the years, but people's attention span and non-existant creativity moved them from roleplaying servers onto either sandbox servers or gamemodes like TTT that require no props/building/creativity whatsoever and focus mostly on weapons and items (which describes any average 2016-2022 game). Like I mentioned before, it's a wonder that other roleplaying communities on Garry's mod even exist today. I guess it would be smart to pay them a visit and see what's so innovative there that keeps players active, be a copycat of some sorts. And don't replace, but add. That way you keep both nostalgic players and new players happy.

The staff team just did the wrong things. Thats it dont blame it on the players. Why are there 15admins when the server is dead. That just makes no sense. New players join the server and see that 9/10 players are staff. Its litterly all the staff’s fault that this happend . Divey is a smart man sold it on the right time. Unfortunately Not to the right people. Since Conn is the owner all his “friends are in the staff” RE: What happened to the server? - Transmission - 10-05-2022 It is hard to get motivated to roleplay, when you join and attempt but it's mostly people playing giant checkers, public building outside the Nexus.

They can put RPG ranks for jobs to give more interests, nothing to loose. https://fearlessrp.net/showthread.php?tid=100192&pid=884584#pid884584 RE: What happened to the server? - Awestruck - 10-05-2022 (10-05-2022, 01:37 PM)ART Wrote:(10-05-2022, 01:07 PM)Equinox Wrote: - snip -What do u mean people are nog creative anymore?
