Here we are.

Hello everybody! :D

I want to surprise everybody and say before I even get started, that this thread will contain the synopsis of the other DSD/Spring_lacking_players threads.

So it all started when I made a thread about DSD/DSD hosts killing Spring blablabla and it ended to the thread that Senna made a while back, not to forget all the threads in between our threads.

When I think about it, I've heard all the lame excuses for why Spring is lacking players. From "noobs are being yelled at", "noobs get kicked if they play badly", all the way to the "I turned into a faggot and didn't want to hear any more gay jokes from keijj0". All I can say is fuck that.
Players left because the spring itself was going nowhere, and when it finally started to develop again, it was already too late. The other reasons are these big, lame, horrible, bad, retarded or however you wanna call them, DSD hosts. Or well it was a big problem, nobody cares anymore.

The lack of players is real, on #main I can see only 112 players at the moment. Remember when we had at least 200 players and possibly even more at this very same time only one year back? See that's when DSD hosts and big games started to control Spring. First all the oldies left because they felt Spring couldn't offer anything for them anymore. Then slowly the newer generation started to disappear as well and I really can't believe that noobs being yelled at or them being kicked from the hosts is the real reason for all this.

Tell me if I'm wrong, I really want to have one final conversation about this.

why is this in lobby instead of general discussion?

There will be no final conversation about this.

there are less player in main because more players are using zklobby/not joining main anymore so that is a bad metric.

ba is losing players because people are leaving to play zk. Dealwithit.jpg.

this is the song that never ends...

I left because I was sick of games with too many players for the map being played. It wasn't even DSD, anything with 10 or less players on DSD was pretty swell but all the host owners just wanted more players instead of quality games.

It would have made a lot more sense to have two 5v5 hosts instead of one 10v10 host or whatever it is now.

12v12 on DSD is what finally pushed me to leaving.
