I agree with DylanCheetah - allowing a game that still gets new players daily die is not the best idea in this case. Instead of letting the game die and letting everything go down the hole, we need to bridge the gap between staff and community. Now this may seem easier said than done, but it requires that both sides (staff and community) come together at the round table and discuss a lot of things to come to an idea where both sides leave happy.
As I stated, this game is getting new players every day. This is completely normal to how a game cycle works. The new players with eventually outweigh the old and the community will be "reborn." Not all games follow this, but this game is following that trend. If you go and look at the page stats (
Source) on average we see about 66~67 new registrations every day, also, on average, we see around 272 posts in a day, and lasty we see around 164~165 online on average. While those numbers don't compare to the original numbers, it is still important to look at them. Those numbers also tell us that 66 new people join our community every day and make it stronger and larger.
Dylan really did hit it on the head. The staff do know about your desire for information - they are listening even if you don't think they are - and they are trying to come up with a solution. It is difficult right now to create a road map for you guys, but they do desperately want to show you something. This does mean that the community needs to have a bit of patience until they have that something to show - or until they perfect something for the community to see.
The staff really care about you guys and really want to please you all. That is why you haven't seen anything posted quite just yet. While people wanna see improvements, they want to show you
finished improvements that
will be implemented into the game. If they show you something and then take it out of the game both sides feel bad. I can promise you that the staff team and development team are working extremely hard for you all and that you will get something in the future. Like I said, and I can't stress this enough, the staff
love the community and want to prove to you guys that they are doing something amazing for you guys, it is just going to be a bit until they have something to show.
Edit: I'd also like to add that similar threads like this have been created in the past (when Gen was removed, the new update, etc.) and the community had thrived through that. As long as people love and support this game (which the majority of the game population do), then the game will thrive through this also.
