Closed Why do people constantly insist that mabi is dying

While I thought me quoting them almost word for word would give no doubt it was all in jest, I shall keep what you're saying in mind~. Seriously.
You're asking the wrong people theres a good chance no one here has that info
Hahaha, thank you for the welcome HM! Can I call you HM? Hardmuscle just seems a little awkward to type out all of the time. Though, HM does sound like a fashionable line of clothing for men. Clothes For HM. Yeah, that's not a bad idea for a brand. I'd totally take my boyfriend to shop there, if this fictional entity existed.
Anyways, I won't let the negativity get me down, hahaha. It's actually weird, though. Things like "X is Dying" can become self-fulfilling prophecies because people that are new to the game will see the name of the topic and then read through and feel put off and then maybe they'd move on. Tbh, when I was investigating games, I saw this topic and was like, "lol, if you have to ask the question...." Of course, that was before I tried it. I guess I really wanted to chime in here so that people didn't get the impression that all was hopeless and lost.
Also too, you were right in your posts about the impact of cyber security. I used to be an admin on a few fansites (that will go unmentioned because I'm so embarrassed by my past!!!!!!!) and DDOS attacks are a real (and an expensive issue).
Annnd, merging servers is a real request? Sounds like a mess to me. Alexina is already sometimes laggy...
Eh, maybe I'm just a simpleton, but I don't think that stuff will matter to me. I mean, I once spent 400 hours fishing in WoW, lol. I'm not exactly hard to amuse. XD I totally admit that this may not be normal, but hey - how many weirdos does it take to keep a game from dying? :P And pouring time into Mabi is sooo much more rewarding than anything that I ever did in WoW, lol.
You buy/rent dedicated machines to run a server on. You generally don't run servers for mmos on personal computers with home internet nor should you ever use that as a benchmark.
Yes that's one of the uses of channels as well, which is why high population servers overseas have lots of them. Another use is to prevent overcrowding of game areas. What server merges accomplish is to save the vestiges of a dying server by merging it with an active ones and one reason for doing this is to prevent players from leaving the game altogether. Even if the caps on each channel remains the same players having a population to interact with is far more important.
