I used to spend so much time on this game. I used to be addicted to this game; that is the unfortunate truth. I stuck through it with all the changes, as minor as they were or as big. I won't lie, it was the people that kept me around matched up with the fact that I loved forums and the game play didn't suck. However, since this relationship button has come out the community has completely split. The side that likes it and the side that doesn't. The side that doesn't is mostly the players that have been here a while or the players that understand this game isn't about hookin up -or at least it wasn't. Basically the people who have gotten the game to where it is today. There have been some pretty great mods over the time I've been here and even beforehand.. However two of the best mods I've known have quit recently (Jen and Nekkie) and even a great mod I never had the pleasure of associating with (spiny) but have heard amazing things about. Ata doesn't realize that they're going to lose the loyal members of the community with this button .. Either that or they don't care. The members they're catering for now will quit when they get bored - which will ultimately happen bc the game isn't great anymore and rp can only get you so far. Then what will your stats look like? **** that's what. I only felt the need to make this thread after logging on for the first time in days and seeing people bash on Jen for quitting without knowing the facts. I won't claim to know the whole story as to why she quit, but being ignored and made feel the way Nekkie described is a good reason to quit a job YOU VOLUNTEER FOR. It's sad to see people leave but this game is turning to crap and it doesn't surprise me in the least that many of the good people that play this game have quit or are .. Hell.. At the rate it's going, I wouldn't be surprised if Footy stepped down from modship.. Unless that happened in my absence and I'm just too dumb to know it. I miss the way this game used to be, even though I'm happy I'm no longer addicted .. ️ Disclaimer: I realize that by posting this thread I am in fact being a casual and jumping on the bandwagon. However, **** you and have a nice day.
