...Where is everybody?

I'm going to apologize on the front end for this post... Simply because I haven't posted in a while and I'm not being self-concious about "posting etiquette." It really has nothing to do with the game itself, so for that, gimme' some grace if you please... It's been a while. (lol)
Anyways... :)
Where is everyone? I'm not really asking literally where everyone is... But I've gotten online to play every night this week and created a server and played myself for 20 mins. No one has a server up (that is worth playing with) and no one ever joins mine... Is it just me, or is Mars kinda'.......dead?
All the best,
-Jay

Its definitely not you.. What's frustrating is that the ingredients are all there.... the players, for the most part, still play. But all they do now is talk.
And complain.
And talk.
And not play.

I personally was shocked by the decreasing number of players too. Mars Explorer is a great community so I don't blame the conversations. Maybe people were getting excited with the new worlds and updates that they played very frequently. Now that the version has been sitting in 2.22 and few worlds have been appearing for awhile, a lot of the players may have gotten bored. If you think about it, the game is a simple game that requires a more experienced player to use it to it's full capacity. A lot of these newer players may have been bored and just stopped playing.

P.S. Ren, good luck going to bed eating like that. Lol.

I just got a PS3 a few months ago, so I've been playing that instead. That's why I've not been on the game. And I'm too lazy to install it again... :P

If I don't see anyone online that I care about, I just don't play.

I would love to play a decent game although I'm away most f the day/night. Also if everyone wasn't always NC I could actually play a game of real mars.

Frankly, the Winter season is just better for gaming. I also wanted a break.

Tiger. :) I've missed you man. A lot.

Agreed!
Any small chance you'd be making a bit of a comeback?
As to the topic of the post:
Really, the Skype machine has contributed some to this, but it is also for the reasons I have stated above. People want a break, and they're also doing a LOT of stuff over the Summer! I dunno about most of you, but for me, Summer = Break Time. Break from all the noobs, the drama here and there, and the "moral issues" that float around here.
But trust me. People will play sooner or later. Oh, and this has about one more day to stay up... soo....

see!, thats what he's talking about! you guys use these things like your own personal chat pages and don't give a rats anus about the actual post!!

Excuse me, are you new here? I thought so.

Mmm. He has a small point, although he went about presenting it in a crappy fashion. Chatting has contributed to some of the "good" players decrease, but it certainly isn't THE cause of it.
To be perfectly blunt, most of us want a break, and we've been taking it. Summer happens to be the best time to do so, so suck it up and just play without the people you've gotten used to seeing so much. We'll be back. Most of us, anyways.

I could pretend there are no mods, but then I'd still have to deal with the complaints of having a double standard from anytime someone else gets a post hidden.
