A decade ago we had an average of 200 players of which most were traders and miners printing money and none of these issues were a big deal because there was always someone out there more than willing to replace whiny powertraders, or maybe there were so many of them it wasn't a big deal because you found plenty of victims anyway even if a bunch avoided you. The point is we didn't need to fix this back then, it wasn't a problem and still isn't, the low player count is the elephant in the room, the player retention sucks and there's many factors to blame, but mostly it narrows down to the fact the game is ancient and a chore to install on Winblows 11, the culture of this community is comically toxic and minors which are the ones that could fill this gap the best because they have plenty of free time would rather play gameslop like Fortnite, Rocket League, Minecraft, Helldivers, CoD... You get the point.
Do you guys think Alex will keep this server alive in the next ten years?
