Uare kidding me ?

Nope, that's the truth. Forum regulars are a tiny fraction of all the people that play this mod. Note, i'm not arguing why, i'm just stating a fact.

I'd like to know where you both get your facts, for each of you to be able to substanciate your statements. I would like to see some usage figures for this mod servers/forum or either, as that is a real tool in 'ehum' creative marketing.

Doesn't take rocket science, to be honest. There are hundreds of people who just chill on random servers, most of them probably don't even know about this site, and those that do, go here very rarely. Then there are all the lurkers, who come out occasionally to post a war or write 'gg'. I don't even want to include the go-throughs which play for a short period of time and leave, or the people who register accounts and never write anything.

look at most ever online in this forum and then regularly look at no of players on servers... seems to me theres not much in it, but again thats just assumption based on solitary figures.
misinformation = missed opportunity

The number of players doesn't include the same particular players every time you look at it though. I'm not about to start writing lists or anything in the like, as that's a rather tedious task for the sake of proving a point, but consider this - most of those people i mentioned rarely go to the usually clan player occupied servers, they usually keep to ffa and the odd tdm/ctf server. It's always been like that, to my knowledge, and those people are the real numbers behind E+.

Oh, and also, most online ever on forum = 95% or so was bots. ;p

as you say, mostly it is your knowledge and not based in fact just supposition, even though you do put a fine and convincing argument over, but you are being still being subjective, which was my point.. not who was actualy right or wrong.

back to topic?
the servers with the clan player's is dominated by one two big server (beer and aim)
while all the new players are on ffa etc server.
this is a major bottle neck for gaining new players imo.

what do you suggest skull, you are saying the players are there and we gotta keep them or are you saying there is a way to entice players in...

Aye, true that. Well, i suppose anyone who is actually interested can go to the mentioned servers and see for himself, anyway.

- Kids will play any game if environment is excellent Most important thing is environment. That is good and serious organization which involve huge effort and energy. Bad is that everyone who put himself as whole in commumity was pushed out... Mullder and myself are true examples.
- Also I agree that forum is become dead one because no any serious discussions exist anymore. All we know why is like that.
- As result is that E+ community as whole slowly going down. Statistics say all.
- It is not important is it 1.04 out or not. People will enjoy in game as it is in case that all other is perfect.

So, people which leads this community can proceed as they do now and result is known, or change policy and refresh this community.

They should reconsider their attitude and pessimism and if they don't have energy, time and will give chance to someone who can and will.

Stories as game is old and it is natural coses to die in time is just showing weakness.

Community is result of people which are parts of community and if they want to be alive and growing it will be.

And at end maybe is time that some people step out and give chance to fresh blood to make something if they have energy, creativity, commitment to bring this community up...
