The forum is dying...

[Shard]

If you think it scares them off, they would just leave after registering then, right?

Derp.

Maybe if they saw what the rest of the forum was like 1st, then when registered they see the bash pit they would realise it doesn't represent the forum as a whole. So, what have you come up with besides 'more interesting people'?

[DarkCrusade]

I don't see any reason to change anything. The only way to get more action into the forum is improving Soldat, and that is up to the devs. After all, this is a forum people join, because they play Soldat. No new players, no new forumers. It's not vice-versa so don't even bother.

yea the only reason i got on the forums today was to check for updates and update my comic... which isnt as popular as it used to be.

So boring.

[DarkCrusade]

I guess it gets less interesting the better your grammar gets

*cough*

Thats how we win the war, thank you for doing your part. Every person I know, knows my love for soldat . I do my part ill take non under my wing and play hour s with them not making them run in fear but letting them have fun and even teach them to play might even tell the secret of soldat.
Soldat has not failed you ,we failed soldat

So the forum is dying, it provided us with many, many fun times. Let us reminisce:

You forgot the airplane-conveyor belt question thread.

[LtKillroy]

^ I forgot about that one. That was bad. A few more I just remembered.

*Edit*
And you guys brought back karma? Interesting choice, I guess.  Also, why did you keep this smiley. It haunts my dreams to this day.

[swebonny]

This day would come sooner or later. I'm still checking this forum just because of  the great memories I had. I loved this forum when I was a kid.

Soldat is as stagnant as fuck. Sure people still play it and pay for it but it is nowhere near as popular as it used to be say.... 4 or 5 years ago.

Every time a new version comes out, a little bit of stuff gets fixed and a ton more gets fucked up... like when the back flip was added. That was pretty cool, but MM fucked with the guns so bad it was unplayable.
Take a look in the game suggestion/improvement rule thread- 99% of cool suggestions have been cast aside because boo hoo it's too hard to go back to change things. MM is skilled enough to give his fans what they want- new game modes, vehicles, environmental damage but he never does. Don't get me wrong, he's done some amazing shit that made the game interesting, such as making that doohickey that downloads maps into your library that you haven't played yet.
There's only so much anyone can play of the same game despite the various updates that do little except tweak the guns.
Soldat comes from a time where computers were shit but could handle a simple 2d game and that's what made it gold. Now that the average computer can handle shit like crysis, of course people are going to be drawn to the flashier games with nice graphics [especially when so many are free].

All of these are reasons why the forums are 'dying'. There are still a ton of people here from when I used to post back in the day but other than that there isn't alot of new blood.
Soldat needs to massively change and become relevant again or else this place is going to get worse. Seriously, you guys brought back the bash pit? You must really be desperate.

Seriously, you guys brought back the bash pit? You must really be desperate.

It is the sign of a deathbed wheeze, the last squeeze of revitalization that drains the body of its last drop of life. Look at forum stats. Fo' real...

Not desperate; I was just curious to see how much attention it'd get.

[100% not captain ben]

too little too late... i remember requesting all of this shit millions of years ago. karma's back, the bash pit is back, so when are you going to make me a mod because that was my third request

I tell you what. Would you like to be a mod of the bashpit?

[100% not captain ben]

YES

[jrgp]

YES
