Me thinks you weren't around then, because the game was exceedingly active before the weekly rebirth update.
Ch 1 through to ch 7 on alexina was either busy or full all the time. After the update took place, all those who paid for their rebirths washed their hands of the game and flat out quit for good, which was approximately half the server who bothered to grind in the first place.
The same will happen with this update, people who took the time to grind their skills will feel betrayed and belittled. They will see no point in grinding anymore as you can simply gain levels, use a training seal or grind a little wee bit to make that 30% to dump like 5 ap into training the other 70% of the skill rank.
This system also makes for a bad incentive for future events. There will be no point to future events like torchlight bazaar, double rainbows, 2x skill training events, life skill based events that provide training bonuses, etc etc.
That's right, events have become utterly pointless in light of this system. This system is like taking a syringe full of sugar and corn starch and jabbing it into a diabetic. This system single-handedly made monthly events into obsolete dead content.
No, it didn't, the population actually increased after that a lot.do you remember the weekly rebirth update? Half of the population literally quit overnight.
