It's really sad how people seem to not understand the simple concept of what a dead server is and how it pretty much kills a ton of effort from a lot of people.
Perhaps there's some rumor going around that I don't like being a GC, idk.
But let me set the record straight. I don't hate hosting. I sure as hell don't love it anymore (probably due to classic's decline,) but I still find some fun in it. I sure as hell have enough time when I'm not working 30 hours a week. But let's be honest. Classic is dead for over 20 hours a day on average. And when it isn't dead, we barely get into the high teens even with numerous RCs on. Do we get into the 20s and 30s from time to time? Yes. But do we stay that way for hours on end, enable GCs to host event after event after event? No.
I'd love to host events on classic when I have the chance, but the playercount is simply not good enough to warrant me sitting all day on graal. When I don't work, I'd much rather be doing other things than sitting on graal with a playercount of 6. Maybe you find some satisfaction looking at 3 RCs and 2 random people, idk.
If you want to apply for GC and try to do better, then do so. But I'm sure as hell not going to "step down." I can still host and I'd like to host from time to time, but simply put: classic sucks too much for me to sit around and host when I could be doing other things.
Edit: same applies for other people in other staff positions. |
