Dismal stats = BIG PROBLEM

[Lord Caedus]

As much as I don't like seeing older players quit, I am glad to see PoBs die of decay. There was too many of them, lot of them without any real purpouse. Having a PoB shouldn't be the standard for anyone but factions or group of players.

Yeah I think this might be a large part of the issue. A lot of these POBs don't really have a purpose anymore, and a lot of them were simply vanity projects that just turned into credit and time sinks for the people running them. Let's be honest, running supplies to keep a POB running isn't exactly the most fun aspect of playing Disco, so when people had a holiday from having to do it when the 5.0 patch came out, they suddenly didn't have to keep a POB fed and one of two things happened. One, feeding their POB was the only reason they played, and they stopped playing entirely because of it, which I hope most people aren't here for. Two, they realized just how much time they were spending on feeding a POB that can be spent doing something else in the game, so they've gone and done that.

All that being said, seeing some of these POBs that are just there to be a glorified billboard go away isn't going to break my heart.
