you guys need to be more realistic about the state of the server
everyone is some type of donator at this point, almost everyone has 2 votes
what newcomers does this really affect?
we try to repop, we get a few people (staff, supporters, VIP)
we get a semi-boring map and rtv after like 3 rounds
get another semi-boring map and cant rtv so everyone leaves by round 5
having to completely play through 6 full rounds, where half of them get delayed, is incredibly boring and a vibe killer especially when its a map you only kinda enjoy
make it so we can rtv after round 3 or round 4
we still play the map enough that way, and makes it so we can keep the game more engaging and fresher for people to stay playing
people stay on inventory servers because of the loot crates and shit sure.. but the rounds go by pretty fast, maps change at a decent rate because of this, TTK is fast, movement is faster, and theres almost no downtime so people actually want to keep playing.
those servers actually have a retention rate
it's implementation at the time was great because we had 20+ people on the servers playing... now it's just a dumb restriction that kills the server most of the time
you guys keep thinking we have the same player base as we did a few years ago and are trying to make changes (or not make changes?) for something we just dont have anymore
it's like you guys are trying to cling onto the whole "SeriousTTT" ideals of keeping everything so simple/barebones and "not an inventory server" but idk man we're the community that's losing players.
