Quote:We have hundreds of accounts that have fully GMd chars on them but they don't play. We had over 100 players online at the same time with fully GMd chars, but they don't play here now
but how many of them even play games anymore? I mean like silverwolf said A LOT of people have moved on, you cant just focus on getting old players back but you have to please and help NEW players that are still playing this game, which a lot have said the skillgain is a problem. I personally have never seen 100 online for my time at IN:X, I've seen 30-40 but not 100.
From 40 to where we are now is because and i'll be honest
#1 - Not many staff were active, you had Shade, Muto, Jackal, Eru running things for awhile with tours n stuff like promting ganks. After at some point only Muto was on and not many people were doing anything. I'm not saying u guys don't devote time to IN:X but that was a problem when there is not a lot of interactivity between players.
#2 - Some people realized how long it would take to GM some of those skills and gave up
#3 - Even when we had a lot of people online, the majority of them were AFK MACROING, hence no shard interactivity and thus players who were active got bored and left.
