As Terran said a big part of our player base comes from NTG vets and those who seek out a better server after experiencing the other wannabees, I touched base on this in my admin app and still stick by it, we push our rules to the max with the general vibe from the regular daily players who are grinding quests, weapon upgrades and etc who take it way to seriously when something doesnt go their way and takes it out on new players who could have been potential regs in the future. I see so many players join the server and they have one issue with an accidental kill and get a toxic response via a report like why are you a dumbass you rdmed and they dont want to deal with it. These players tend to leave after they are slain or just straight up leave when the report comes in. Instead of reacting out of salt we really need to calm down and talk things out to keep new players around. Another thing I see asked for all the time by new players is a tdm or something to do when they are not active in a round after death or waiting to spawn. TDM may not be the best fix but most new players cannot do things like spin 2 win at this point and get bored and leave. Just my 2 cents on the matter and when I am less tired I may have more to add but that is all for now.
