Restoring Order

[Ravenblade1979]

Look it comes down to the guest account. Trials can't play after so many hours so they disappear. And then the ones with p2p start getting pwned and leave.

one of two things need to happen.

Take away guest account for zone (and make sure they can't use the damn shop)

and

Put this server down to classic for a few months, work on the guest account issue, take away the shop while its down on classic cept maybe keep the p2p accounts up for sale. Then when enough interest is back put it back on gold.

This wont work, although I do like how you are actually trying to help the game instead of complaing *cough (Kia). Players didnt leave because they got "owned", they left because the trials left. Zone's playercount used to be in the 30's (?), before V5. If you remove the trials, you're down to about 20 or so. Most people quit once the playercount reached that low.

Actually it was admitted that since they couldn't lame and could get killed now they decided to leave.

Who stated this?

If that is true, than I hate the new Zone community even more than the old one.

Yeah I'm sure every player said this.

Without trials the place is too empty to enjoy. Without trials, you're up against people who are roughly on your level of skill. That means you have long ass 1v1 fights on arctic/spar which is NOT fun. No trials = no fun.

And before you say it, this isn't the same thing as "couldn't lame and could get killed now" statement.
