It's clear that MCP traffic is currently declining and there are several reasons why, this is purely my opinion but I know some people will agree. MCP has some players (not named here) who do everything they can to piss people off and I believe that does drive some players away. Also this is supposed to be a community server but the community usually makes bad suggestions, prime example is the black market, it was suggested so many times, every time it was suggested Silas would come back and tell them it would be dead content and finally he listened but what happened? He was right nobody uses the black market, the black market would only be useful if you were not able to sell contraband items anywhere but there and MCP had many more guards and the prison was smaller so you would have a better chance of being caught while making one of these deals. Also I think that the server lacks change but I feel like it's mainly the fault of the community because no half decent suggestions are made and people complain that the server is dead but the server will not grow without an active player base who are playing for fun and helping others instead of being asshats all the time. All we need to do is get an active player base who is here for fun and make good suggestions and maybe the wardens would be motivated to do something, if we just sit here and say MCP is dead then it will only continue to die so make just please make good suggestions, be nice to people, and play here for fun so we can thrive m8s.

I'm one of those people who do everything they can to piss others off. But if we're honest, what point is there to stick around? Don't get me wrong, I wish to see MCP grow, but after being a mod three times, a guard once, and top rank multiple times, what else is there for older plays like us? Nothing. Now Silas has a plan to introduce quests possibly, which might bring in a new thing into the prison. But was was the last thing brought in? Drugs. Something players wanted for a while and now on reset nobody uses. It happens whenever the owner / network admin listen to these players. They demand something, get it, and then never use it.

It's not a beginning at all. Tonight is an ending.
Yes, that's why we the community need to think of better ideas, what will encourage new players to stay and change up the game a bit for the older players? That's what we should be asking ourselves before we post a suggestion.

It's astonishing on how most of the older players still play, mit. We should be long gone, it's not part of the cycle.
MCP needs ways to retain new players instead of driving them out

Why not break the cycle oh great master Point? But yes MCP does need ways to retain the newer players coming onto the server.

In summery it is a two way street we need to make content for you guys to give you something to do, and you need to use it. Also rivalry is good it was the main drive for players to keep playing but we have lost it and it has just become toxic now.

The problem with adding new content resulting in players not using it is simple; the new content added is an option.
You don't have to use drugs to get out of prison, infact drugs are for Free+.
If drugs were needed to get out of prison (ex. get 5 weed to get out of C Block) it would be used 100% more.

This is just from mine and a few of my friends POV but you made the prison too god damned hard, I mean, 40 levels for one proc 3 enchant? that is total bullshit if you ask most of us. Now I understand it needs to be balanced and stuff but no one wants to grind out 40 levels like 12 times over for a single set of not even full god gear, so I agree it needs to be balanced but FOR FUCKS SAKE MAKE IT LESS GRINDY
