Future of FL/ FL Dying (18/75)

And with the DarkRP argument: Why not put it in the TTT area? Would be the same: You expect a gamemode you know and have an idea how it works. And if it is not thr case you would leave. At least I would because I want to play what I expected when I joined.

I am sorry, but this argument makes zero sense. No placing Fearless in TTT in comparison to DarkRP is not the same. First of all Dark RP is where Fearless was originally located back when. Because it is a section for ROLEPLAY servers. While TTT has zero aspects of roleplay. Roleplay is roleplay and if that is the grave you want to sit in, so be it. The only differences between CityRP and DarkRP is we maintain a more serious notion when it comes to models, rules, and in general community. Instead of being completely against the idea how about you consider the fact there are potentially players who are in DarkRP looking for something more serious than the general mess about of your basic DarkRP server and once they find our server located there they become genuinely strong players in our community? Negativity with outlandish claims leads to nothing and gets us no where. There is no negatives to moving the server into the DarkRP section.

The difference between us and DarkRP is that we don't use DarkRP as our gamemode. The server listing aren't based on whatever you feel like your server fits into, it's dependant on what gamemode you use. Yeah we can easily fake it to put us into the DarkRP section, but we're still lying and we won't be what people expect from a server in that category. It feels scummy to have people spend ages downloading all the content to join the server just to find out it isn't even the gamemode they were looking for and hope they stay because they've already put that effort in.

I don't think the name CityRP is that hard to find in a gamemode search, which is now possible due to the last update. I also don't even think the issue is that we're not gaining enough new players, it's more that we fail to retain any of those people who join and now we're also failing at keeping existing players.

Edit: I didnt even search. Those were top servers that popped up.

They're using the DarkRP base I actually think I joined one of those like a month or two ago (don't ask why aha). I can't say for certain about the rest but they likely are too.

The one I highlighted says it is 100% custom. If that is the case we should be under Applejack servers instead of CityRP because we are in the same road as that servers comparison.

I dont know why this is getting so much backlash? It makes it seem like you guys want to stay at the pace we are going at. I mean truthfully Pollux I have seen you go against every suggestion to improve the server but have yet to provide a suggestion to make things better. You say we dont need to do this because people can search for CityRP easier now because of an update. But I am going to level with you I have yet to see an increase so I am going to have to assume that the update did not affect our numbers so we still have to do something.

Moving to DarkRP does not have any negative impact. We are not false advertising. If we are so is everyone else. This is to adapt or die. I think everyone is in agreeance that this will boost numbers. It is a simple thing to do so will not take up development time and then you guys as the development team can do your job and retain these kids who will be influxing in. THIS IS NOT HARD.
