Siriusly, you guys have been doing this for years as players continue to leave, when are you going to stop?
When there are dozens of leaving threads filled with the same reasons for leaving, is it not time to change?
Or, ya know, keep ignoring the problems, keep ridiculing the players that hand us the information we need, keep relying on the indifferent, the ignorant, the "in-crowd", and most importantly the new to stop discovery from completely dying off, keep blaming the dwindling population on freelancer being an old game, on ddos and hackers, on school holidays, and on newer games.
Because why not, after all it has worked for the past decade, there are always going to be those who complain and leave, you have no reason to do anything but laugh at them and then forget about them.
If the OP was a simple goodbye--the game is not as much fun for me anymore--I'm moving on type of post, then yeah, criticism and ridicule would be frowned upon. But c'mon man, the guy bashed the Devs and Admins on the way out the door. The incident he referenced, I was directly involved in. I'm not going to rehash it other than to say the action we took was totally justified and if the player hadn't tried to circumvent his ban by posting with an alternate account, he would have probably been playing much sooner.
I would suggest that if you want to be treated with respect, then maybe you should act with respect. Otherwise, you're simply inviting the mocking and hate that comes your way.

These posts are like all of them where titles says "Im leaving/bye/taking a brake e.c.t and the funny thing is no one cares about the fella who is leaving or that we have lost another player but about his stuff or laughing at him.
Thats what I have seen in a while.

Well you have seen wrong.
it's not the fact that "no one cares" but more of its the fact that no one reasonable will post in this dump we call a forum for this type of topic.
Im pretty disappointed in what i have been reading so far here. Keep it up community! You're bound to loose a whole lot more people at this rate.
Im not surprised at all at the people that have posted here as well with rude comments and I also cannot blame Chance at all.
So all in all, shut up.
PS, this time @Garret Jax , we disagree. And it is more becasue I have talked to @"Chance" more than you have and you just assume based on the vague post he left.
Best to not assume crap you just think up and say you are right.
To @"Chance" : God speed and cheers to the good times. It was fun! Thanks for the help and the cool chats we had. Hopefully we can keep in touch.
@Chance Bummer to see you go. Thanks for all the roleplay ingame, on the forums and on Skype. Drop us a line if you find something interesting to play and need a wingman.

The thing is, compared to many other communities, the Discovery community is honestly not even that bad. Sure things get heated and people don't agree with other people but for the most part people get along when(at least when subjects they don't agree on are brought up). From what I have seen most hatreds start up when one side starts to perceive that the other side is out to get them or hate them which eventually ends up coming true since they start to act nasty. Yes this isn't always the case but seems to be more often the case from what I have seen. I also know people will disagree with this but just throwing my two cents.
As for people leaving for gameplay direction reasons, it almost seems pointless to pay attention too as people will often leave for complete opposite reasons(ex. one person leaving because the game is too pew oriented while another because they think people are trying to hard to impose RP on them) meaning there is no way to please everyone. That is not to say the devs and discovery can't use some improving in some areas just that these leaving threads are pointless which is why people act this way with them.

Scrub? Piss off little ant.

EDIT: Jokes aside, I know you do not like me, but I literally do not remember how that happened or who you are. Are you from CR?
