I agree to some extent, just look at all the player events we have on, they are really good.  But at the same time we are paying subscribers and want to get the best out of our money, which includes decent progression of the story and as much content as we can that isn't just recolourd, restamped and resent out to us.

Oh please, let them continue their recoloring, it's not that bad as most of you make it out to be.

Actually, making new items, recycled or not, should be far from the priority right now, what's needed is new means to connect to the ongoing canon story that Rarebit is trying to produce here. He wiped the primary way of doing that by removing the live(scripted) events completely. The new approach blows and he knows it, but giving players access to spawn tools is not the way out of this.

I'd really like it if people stopped using terms like 'dying community' and 'massive hemorrhaging of players'.  They're not true and they only reinforce the feeling of negativity that makes people think they're true.  If you know what I mean.

Syntax might not be dying but I know Recursion is.

Denial aint just a river in Egypt!

Recursion is dead, and Vector is the deadest I've ever seen it.  What comes after Recursion and Vector?  I'll give you three guesses, and the first two don't count.

Cause and Effect, as someone once said.

We've been through hard times before.  We might not be 'thriving' just now but we've survived far worse. 

Keeping our spirits up will help us recover but moping around as if we're already dead will only make things worse.

I can't help agreeing and it's one reason I've been staying distant from MxO the past few days.

Are too.

But if you want the Thoughtless Positivity achievement (lol, I'm already using WoW terms), there shouldn't be much competition left!

Recursion's a dead zone. Nothing even happens when I show up flagged at Mara C.

Due to the new changes, more subscriptions are going to drop well before more subscriptions are added. Especially when you consider the fact that all of the new story is pretty much non-game based when you can just read nine mission summaries and watch a cinematic, you don't even really need to play the game anymore.

Truth of the matter is, we are already dead. We were dead after CR2. Now... We're a molested corpse.

I actually would like to make a compromise of sorts, I think we should wait until after the winter event before catastrophising.  Last year there was a slight uptick, maybe we can pull together one last time a little.  Come January though, unless something major is done, all bets are completely off.

I agree.  It's silly to be preaching doom when everyone's busy with their holiday arrangements.

Where have you been since CR2.0? Everything has been rehashed. It won't be changing any time soon, I'll assure you.

While ultimately I agree with Shinryu and think this sort of idea shouldn't be at the top of our wishlist, I think the idea does have merits as a secondary form of content and I'd like to express my doubts that favouritism and general poor performance of the chosen LESIG member would be as big an issue in this situation.

With LESIG overall there were a lot of members to keep track of and Rarebit pretty much had his hands full with everything that was going on. Since the dawn of this New Approach, however, Rarebit doesn't (appear to) have quite as much to worry about. And with the smaller number of people to keep an eye on with these spawning powers and such, it should be much easier for him to keep them in line. The slightest hint of favouritism or, well, stupidity/laziness/any other problems we've seen from certain LESIG members in the past, and they'd have their powers removed and the job passed on to someone else.

Obviously such an arrangement will never be perfect, but I don't think we'd have another LESIG/liaison scandal on our hands.
