The server's future...

(1/8) > >>

thethermoflux22:
After the concealment of the classic option on minecraft.net's website, the number and intensity of players coming onto the server is dropping with every passing day.

This is making me worried, as to me it looks like the server is already into it's long and slow death :-[.

Fewer people are going online now, there are like ten people online at a time, the chat line is emptier and there is generally less going on.

If it continues like this, in my opinion, a year down the line there might be only one person online at a time, with almost nothing going on (ops and admins rarely going online and mostly afk if they do) at all. Maybe people will think that they are the only person in the server!

This may sound mad and weird, but I think it is already happening, and it is making me go for Builder and no higher, as there is not much of a real point in furthering my existence on the server.

Please reply!

Classic link is back on the front page. We are down on players though.....

All good things must come to an end. Let's just make the best of what we have while it's still here.

Agreed with that1gie. I know the server is dying and eventually (I don't know when), it will die and go completely inactive.

For whenever that day may come, I must say the Opticraft classic has been one of the most enjoyable experiences on the internet.

We have to bare in mind that Minecraft classic is the oldest verson of Minecraft, and Mojang is slowly losing support of it.

UnknownHedgehog:
Here's my take on the whole thing. I've told you this already Thermo, but I'll put it on this thread.

The moment when the Classic server started to be "dead" was when they started to reset the list of servers weekly at mc.net. There were moments where the server would be busy, but then the server list would reset and we'd be back at the bottom. And honestly, the server doesn't feel anymore "dead" than it was before the they made the link to Classic more concealed at mc.net. I mean, yes the number of players plummeted when they removed Classic from the front page all together. But then when they put it back on there, they came back.

I don't know if I'm right about this, but don't usually the newer players play on the servers that are free-for-all with no rules or any of that? Because, right now, there are about 90 people on a free-for-all server. And unfortunately, T9K have 60+.

So people do still play Classic, but the server list resetting keeps refreshing us to the lower spots.
And T9K somehow knows how to keep the players coming back to Classic somehow. -_-
