Hello.
As you might all know Brokenlens is not exactly what it used to be. The server itself is still fine, yeah. But it's lost a form of authenticity.
Its community has become less and less like a home.
This has started to happen around the end of 2017.
In present times the server is very unpersonal. Not really like a home anymore.
Hackers everywhere.
No more making friends.
No more family like community.
I'm pretty sure the indirect cause of this was the introduction of console gamers to minecraft.
I don't believe this is brokenlens' fault, but I do believe that the continuation of this 'downfall' is and has been mostly in the hands of brokenlens.
Yet I strongly believe the server can still be saved.
Therefor I ask of you to please read my message and hear me out.
This is not ment as hateful nor rude, this is a call for help for me so many others who hold this server dear to their hearts years later.
I've done a lot of asking around and giving my strong opinions on this matter outside of the brokenlens app, but figured that maybe I can grab the attention of people that have the ability to suggest matters to the head team of the server. Even if it will not be taken into consideration, i hope to atleast be heard and understood.
We who criticize, advice and suggest these changes only do this because we love the server, not because we want to burden you. We are with you. Not against you.
Anyway,
Let's get to the point.
I believe it's never too late to start over.
I know I know. It seems rough.
But it can make everything so easy in the long run. I see the trouble the builders and mods have all gone through and I want to credit you all, but I fear that you might be pulling on.. well. Not a dead horse,
but a heavily injured one.
I believe that if we date back to the server in 2017-2018 and start implementing all the advice we have not implemented back in the day causing the server to hiccup and fall down a bit, we can catch up to modern servers but this time keeping the authenticity community.
even if in the first while the server might feel very out of trend, quality to rebuild on is better then ending up with a dead server. I guess you can compare it to hair with split ends that are slowly making its ways to the roots because they refuse to trim it.
Plus. You can catch up. I know its a hard and tough job to be done, but I believe in you guys. I'm not commanding you to do it. But you guys could do it.
Maybe my suggestion might not be one that you guys want to do, but I atleast hope this stirs up stuff and gives you all the realization that it's time for action. If I can help in any way, please ask, too.
Now if my suggestion would happen, I would advertise you to all the people I could that I know have missed that server. I would try my best to make sure I do all the advertising possible so you can make this decision happen.
I can understand how unreasonable it all sounds, but it all seems too injured.
If we keep going like this the server will not survive.
This is the only server that I want to save, the only server I care about, but I don't have much hope that it will continue much longer in the state that it's in. I know it's a leap of fate and hard work,
But I have hope that it will pay off. And I've thought of this for a long long time.
Our criticism isn't your worst enemy. Our criticism wants to be your best friend. Please take it into consideration.
Thank you for reading
