To the Community and the Administration,
To the Community and the Administration,
This will most likely be the last message from our 7-man squad.
We joined this server because we wanted to have fun. We spent countless hours grinding, building our base, helping each other, meeting new people, and becoming part of what we thought was a great community. We weren't looking for drama—we simply wanted to enjoy the game together.
Unfortunately, that's no longer possible for us.
This isn't about losing loot. Anyone who has played survival games knows that items can always be replaced. Bases can be rebuilt. Resources can be farmed again.
What can't be rebuilt so easily is trust.
The events that led us here completely changed how we view this server. We reported what happened because we believed that fairness, transparency, and equal treatment of players were values the administration stood for. We hoped our concerns would be investigated seriously and handled in a way that gave players confidence in the system.
Instead, we walked away feeling ignored and disappointed.
For us, the biggest loss wasn't our progress—it was the confidence that our time and commitment actually mattered.
A server doesn't survive because of custom maps, plugins, or events. It survives because players believe their time is respected and that everyone is treated fairly. Once players begin to lose that belief, the community slowly starts falling apart.
We also felt that criticism wasn't being welcomed. In our experience, raising concerns didn't lead to constructive discussion but left us with the impression that negative feedback was simply unwelcome.
To make things even more disappointing, after posting a respectful and neutral statement on Discord explaining why we were leaving, I was banned without any explanation. From my perspective, that only reinforced the feeling that criticism wasn't something the server leadership wanted to hear. Whether or not that was the intention, that's how the situation came across to us.
Communities become stronger when they're willing to listen to criticism—even when it's uncomfortable. Ignoring concerns or responding in ways that discourage honest feedback doesn't solve problems; it only causes more players to quietly walk away.
We're not writing this because we're angry about virtual items.
We're writing this because seven people invested a huge amount of time into this server. We believed in its potential. We wanted it to succeed. We wanted to stay.
Instead, we're leaving.
We sincerely hope that the administration and the server owners take some time to reflect on the long-term impact of their decisions. Every action sends a message to the community. When players leave feeling unheard, disappointed, or convinced that their concerns don't matter, it affects far more than just one squad.
Communities rarely disappear overnight.
They fade away one disappointed player at a time.
Maybe seven players don't seem like much today. But every community is built player by player—and it can just as easily lose them the same way.
We genuinely wish everyone who continues playing the best, and we hope the server improves in the future. We hope future players have a better experience than we did.
Unfortunately, for us, this is where the journey ends.
Good luck to everyone who stays.
