is bc dieing or wut? everyone is quitting. once all the oldies are gone ill probably quit also.
any thoughts on how to make the game fun again? (if noones thoughts work i will be leaveing bc and giving all my items away in an event).
advertising maybe would help

Change low server to 2009-2010 with the updates that allowed smoother running of the game, and patches that fixed bugs and glitches without the new additions of the items, map and keep low xp rate. Maybe you could wait to see the upcoming changes if you just quit temporary and keep your stuff? As like they said maybe membershop or maybe even a pvp channel.

Yeah i guess, i mean it makes it easier then having two seperate clients which can take up space and just have it all running on one client just different servers then least low server would have the same population as high would at times. Not sure how the money works for paying to run the server but if they was to then re-open bots into low server on bc and incorperate it in somehow and include people's items/coins to be transfered (dupped) into that server so nobody would be missing out and then close the other bots game down and have it all running of one client or if not then, i guess i admit it's a silly idea. Or just a re-vamped version of it at least.

IMO, its natural that many players, even the oldies quit the game. Not only BC but other games as well. For example, I used to play GMS but I quit as well after 3 years cause it gets bored playing the same game and same thing over and over. Yes, there might be updates and events going on and players will play back for maybe another 2-3 mths (in my opinion) and quit again.
For BC, it was crowded during the last yr's christmas event and it gets lesser and lesser after few mths. When the 258 map was introduced, many played again (leeching and so forth) for that map. And bcuz of this map was introduced, many has been able to get to 225 in jus few weeks or so, depending how long the grinding goes. AND then quit AGAIN after reaching the max level (w/o member).
For me, even I just joined BC during last yr's July or so, I started to get bored as well now. I might not quit but will not be as active as I used to be.

Don't quote me on this, but the problem with this is that this is a private server so that can lead to issues.
I think the game is dying, at times the amount of players gets down really low. A couple of days ago I saw only 7 people online.
It is dieing... proof is that today a saturday only 12 ppl online atm :/
If the old ppl quit, like it is happening, there isnt enough new ppl and then the game will have very little players.
Lack of updates, school and people grew up. The forums are dead, too and that's a poopy sign.

Some of them are that alot of oldies have quit, some staff is just unusefull and good as 20% are hackers
Only because people who used to play the game left, doesn't affect the game itself or the gaming style. You make the game fun for yourself, you don't need others to make it fun for you. If you want people there who make it fun, then make friends talk to people the "oldies" used to be people just starting of as-well they weren't just magically put there.
Just give some people and the game a chance, and staff are useful if the situation is appropriate and needs looking into. Some people are just to stubborn and need to just look on the positive, and enjoy.
Some of us have been here for so long that the game's gone stale for us.
Growing up and real life have also taken over.

when i stopped playing i did it because school and other rl matters started to get more important, also the game started to get old so i rather did other things than playing the game (believe it or not, in the past i rather play this game than hang out).
my school is going to be over in a few months, so i'd have the time and dedication to play actively again. but there isnt any reason for me to come back (new features, new players, old players) and there are even some for me to NOT come back.
lurking the forums instead is still entertaining, however its very different from past times.
now take my reasons and multiply them by 1000 and see why an older player wouldnt come back
Forgot the pass to my other account so I'll post on this.
The reason all the 'oldies' are quitting is because they're tired of BOTS in general. For gods sake the game is 8 years old, its not like Allie and Kenny can add brand new content, its all mods of old stuff. Although they can add new game modes (survival was brilliant) its still the same game as it was 8 years ago. I quit because i'm starting college now so I don't have time, but at the same time I can't bare to play for 20 minutes. It's just boring now. Unless they get the source code from T-BOTS (is that even a thing anymore?) then nothing NEW is gonna happen. Although the innovative minds of Allie and other staff and even the players, the admins can't do anything about it. So the only thing I can suggest is to erase BOTS from existence and claim this is the original as opposed to just another private server and get new players who have never been exposed to BOTS at all and get them to play, then they will become the veterans and new players will come and then they will become veterans, etc. etc.
Returning to my cave now.
Its really dying :-\
