Hello thanks for taking the time to read my suggestion and opinion! First of all I'd like to start by saying I've been on this game since I was 10 and I'm 18 now. Thats crazy! Well recently I've noticed the HUGE drop in activity which is very sad to me. As all of us members that have been here for a while know, we lack the source code. We can only make art modifications to the game. A lot of people have been quitting Feralheart because nothing is changing.
NOW before you say "But NicNac we have the updates!", Thats not what I think is the problem here. As I've said, I joined when I was 10. I HAD NO IDEA what "literate" meant! I went around and asked all the advertisers at the cape portal because I desperately wanted to join Warriors Rps. Eventually someone answered my question. Long story short, Feralheart taught me how to write properly. I was in 4-5th grade I think! I'd spend my summers all day on the game over-dramatisizing my characters in my imagination while listening to music. We had such a huge community of people and so much passion for our characters and the RP! Wolf rps, Cat rps, Horse rps, Dragon rps, Street dogs, Humans, Lion king, Warriors, Angel, Demon, and even more!
I think the reason why people are leaving is the lack of community. The only rps I ever see are Wolf packs, occasionally lion and Warriors. People are eager to join because the idea pleases them but when they join the reality is different. Its not how it used to be. Members are saying they want the old feralheart back and I think what they are meaning is they want the community to grow again. To be large and thrive. I see about 320 people online max each day. I remember when 800 max was online! I remember seeing ALL kinds of rps everywhere, literate or illiterate but the good thing was that people were having fun!
Granted most of us were children and thats okay plus the point! How are we supposed to grow if other non-FH are interested in all these other kinds of games or they dont know what rp is because we are staying in our own little circle community. We arent that big in members and registration is mostly always closed so how are we supposed to grow if no one hears about us? What we need is free registration for everyone! For the curious kids who wander to find this game and join and LEARN how to rp, learn how to be literate and join our community! This is how we can grow. How are we expected to grow when registration is barely open? People are waiting to join and loosing interest waiting.
What makes me really sad is the fact that the only people im running into are the same exact people I met 8 years ago. No one new! Rightnow everyones preoccupied by the same kinds of rps with the same people and adding a discord to better communicate because no one comes online into the game anymore as often. They join a group to be apart of but dont get on. Im guilty of this as well. I realize server lag is a problem and young children can cause problems but isnt that what we all went through? We cant grow as a community if we dont let diversity in, if we dont let anyone in at all. I think Feralheart can still function even though we dont have the source code. We just need to give the young ones a chance. This generation of FH kids are grown up/almost all grown up and we need the others to join now and continue to let us grow as a community.
Dont get me wrong I enjoy the updates and all but this is a game who has the sole purpose of communicating with others. How are we supposed to fully enjoy the updates if there arent a lot of people the enjoy the updates with? I say open the registration and let whoever join. Let us grow again instead of keeping us halted at a stop because the longer this goes on it seems the more the community depletes.. Plus who wouldnt find it entertaining and fun to teach kids how to rp and why the red eyewhile angry cliche shouldnt be used? XD Also for all my oldies out there, "Hello general
"
