See that's what I mean
I am avoiding to act stupid from last time so I apologize
In my opinion, B4v21 is not dead. We're continuing to host the master server & website because players keep coming back to play it. It doesn't matter if it's not worth it to host these services for a handful of players anyways; we're not paying for anything. There is no loss.
Time and effort is the only loss here, never said anything about money (I figured you guys wouldn't pay since the services easily are free) - again it's a "feeling" that you guys spent tons of effort to only make people who miss the nostilgia of the maps happy for a while. There's nothing wrong with hosting on a low playerbase game it just seems like the experience created could be better. I don't want to explain "how can it be better" because it'll just be me basically saying "move to another game/community" and that's not the point here.
i dont think so?? we weren't ever really wanting to be any more popular or to the same amount of popularity of blockland. we knew that wasn't possible. our objective was to help some older users relive some of the older versions and content, while giving some newer users a little insight into the past of blockland. that was it - we were never wanting to build a community so big as to actually rival that of blocklands. i'd honestly think we completely met our objective.
I am sure the goal wasn't to steal players (my perspectives we're pretty stupid from last time), as said above my point is making a steam dll (probably finding stuff wink wink) and making a website to interact seems way too much just to make a few players happy. Again your guys' perspective is different than mine, so I'm obviously sure you don't care about how much time and effort was put into it just to make a small amount of players happy.
what do you mean by this?
Seems like you weren't involved behind the scenes of the entire effort going into this subject, harder to explain when someone didn't contribute into the subject (maybe you did and maybe I'm not paying attention). Lots of code effort involved just to make things work the way they should. As said a few awesome gains is learning a language to make this project work.
