It is quite sad that so many old players stopped playing on this server. I have no clue why this happened, and so far, all I can barely think of when it comes to this server, is that it is dying, fast. I know a new server is coming up, and I hope that more players will start playing on the new server, as in "come back to life" again. I just wanted to get this out of my mind, because earlier today, only 8 people where on, and I could barely believe it. I've been playing on this server for about 5 years, and there has been moments when over 500-1000 people where on, and sometimes 100-200. And I thought that 100-200 was nothing, but now, I don't even know anymore, so I hope more players will be on the new server eventually! No hate, just trying to let my thoughts out by sharing them. And also, if you are new, I promise that this game will be more fun when you have come further into the game. This is a unique skyblock server, not like a lot of others. This is a classical, more fun and more survival-ish server that you will enjoy after getting to know it!
Yep i was surprised by the amount of players after getting my laptop fixed after a few months of it being broken and was surprised. I remember back in the day where chat gets too spammy. Yep... missed those days and Im excited for the new server (I hope we get many players)
I played when we occasionally got around 500 on weekends and stuff in my time. :3 I miss when it was like that.
I started alsow, when the Server was always nearly full and the Chat got spammend to death. I'm hoping alsow that the new Server become more Live from Players.
Back when I first joined (Late 2012 or 2013, can't remember which, and f***ing Cheesy if you come at me with my forums join date, I will murder your face; I had no reason to join forums [Avid Hellblock player, Hellblock took up very little space on forums], so I didn't get an account until I started playing org frequently. Anyway, long tangent), there were common times of upwards of 600 people on Net at once, and it was.. terrible.. for matime to jny reasons, but still better than the pitiful 30 or so it gets now. Drop parties back then maxed the server, and nowadays, they bring a hundred or so at most. Rip net, time to join Org in that hole of no return.
When I first started playing on net back in late 2013, it was so hard to get onto the server because it was always full. You’d have to get on real early in the morning or real late at night, and even then it wasnty guaranteed. Chat was always busy and the economy was good.
I started playing in 2013. I really do miss the good old days. I don’t think skyblock is a problem server. The owners do their best to maintain it and try their best even though their lives are taking a different direction from being kids running a successful server. The concept of vanilla skyblock is stale. Other servers have taken their own spin and it’s that new and improved island, levelling, biomes, challenges, friends, warps and all these ideas that made other skyblock servers a lot popular when our server started losing players rapidly. This server prides itself on being unique. A uniquely vanilla take... a classic. And even the new server should be the same vanilla experiece with more to do. But the only fear I have is... Is it too late?
The base concept of skyblock is stale, however adding other modes such as hellblock (hard mode) and endblock (not confirmed but would be the nightmare/ultra hardcore mode) would bring players to the server. Adding more features like these, especially ones recommended by the community would definitely bring some more people in. The Classic server has been the same for way too long which is why a bunch of people are quitting. There's simply nothing to really do on it.
