What happened?
« on: May 16, 2015, 08:42:43 pm »
It seems most of the servers other than Deathrun are 99% empty. Was there a scandal?

Server relocation, inactivity of veterans (not regulars) causing regulars and thus new players to stop coming into the server, and low popularity is what seems to be the cause. The group members on the steam group page have been going down everyday; hopefully SH recovers.

summer sale isn't gonna make it easy

Edit: Although I guess the last two reasons are the same...

If I were to bet my entire steam account on the server thats always populated, it would be DR 1.

Yeah, no idea what you're smoking Sandy.

Deathrun 1, MVM Hell 1 (i think, the episode one), Zombie Hell and Saxton Hell are doing pretty good.

Personally suprised on how ZF picked up, myself.

Also, just because Trade hell died doesn't mean Saxton Hell is dead... doofus. =P

DR 1 is the only server that's almost always populated.

The group members on the steam group page have been going down everyday

This one has been occurring for the past couple years, it's pretty much expected to have the group member count slowly decrease.

We used to invite players that joined our servers to the Steam group automatically, but after Valve changed its stance on that (in like mid 2013 when they introduced some restrictions on group invites), we've since stopped inviting people to the group.

I wonder why people are leaving though...

Is it voluntarily?

Which is why I said "almost". It has the most activity out of any of the servers by far.

Do we have a message that automatically invites them to join the group? I dont remember
