I disagree that vertx should listen to the majority. Not many people think of the most original and best ideas. Vertx should listen to individual ideas that are received decently or better. Individual ideas make the games more original or even better. Plus there is also bias from large groups of players that makes good change hard especially in the PVP metagame. For example, when I suggested a buff to the warrior kit, people didn't like it because they didn't want to fight another COMPLETELY BALANCED kit. On the opposite end, when I suggested the farmer kit nerf, everyone loved the idea. People were posting threads about that way before I did, and people were becoming angry with the kit, including ME!! What it led to, was an overkill nerf that made the kit only decent. This isn't the only thing that this could do, it could make some way worse things things happen, and for actually good ideas to not get added. There's loads of revolutionary ideas out there that haven't even been experimented about because people will make a terrible excuse on why it shouldn't be added because it would change the game in ways they don't know how it would happen. Because of the majority, we get unoriginal, and terrible stuff. Look at mobwars, a game I despise. It got added because people wanted a form of bedwars on BRLNS. It is terribly balanced, filled with bowspammers, and unoriginal.

I like how ur examples of suggestions were ur own suggestions lol

Something that’s always been so funny to me is how quickly people are able to jump to conclusions, Vertx does care about BrokenLens - he works morning and night all day everyday and literally never stops, like I’ll fuss at him because he’ll overwork himself SO much that he’s forcing his body to keep his eyes open and get stuff done.

You guys have to understand that Vertx does all the coding himself, I’m pretty sure edw helps with other things like the app or discord but I believe the majority of it is simply Vertx. He’s one single man doing so much for absolutely everybody and nobody ever considers it enough, I mean sure, the server is indeed quieter but I swear there’s always so many people who complain as if they’d be able to put as much hard work into the amount of things Gabriel does. If anything he cares so much to the point he puts himself second, maybe forth or fifth honestly. like just the other day he was woken up at 2 in the morning to fix something, he didn’t have to do that. He could’ve said forget it I’ll do it in the morning and go right back to bed because god knows it’s hard randomly being woken up, being so tired yet still having to do stuff. You’re groggy and your face / body feels heavy cause it’s like, literally the middle of the night. Who would want that? Nobody.

BrokenLens honestly deserves so much more popularity, the amount of hard work and dedication that goes into it all is soo unnoticed, like I’ve played on so many other servers and nothing has ever felt as welcoming as Brlns does - you’re right about other servers constantly wanting money, there’s always so much going on I normally get confused as frick (TεT)

I understand everyone’s frustration and concern, we want the new game out and the Brlns network to be just as popular as everyone else does but it’s so thoughtless to say it seems like we don’t ‘care’ sometimes. Even the staff and myself will stay up hours upon hours checking up on things yet people still complain about ‘nothing ever gets done’. new maps are new maps, it’s new content and not just a band-aid to put over the fact the new game isn’t out yet, our build team is constantly working on new maps for people and that goes really unnoticed as well, I mean if we put out the new game with 1-2 maps then you doods would complain about that too, the point is we still need maps regardless of the fact some people might be sick of simply getting that. There were new particles not too long ago even, like sure it’s not ‘much’ but it’s still something.

just because your suggestion hasn’t been taken into consideration or looked at yet doesn’t mean the server is complete trash, or because you dislike one game doesn’t mean others think the same. (My reply isn’t exactly towards you or anyone else, just a general thought.)

^^^^^^^

i’ve been on the servers that are automatically listed (i’m not tryna promote i’m just saying). i’m always honestly afraid to talk- not bc i’m shy bc i’m outgoing on games, but bc of the toxicity most of the servers have. brlns feels more like a virtual family.

i see staff that are up late and i feel bad bc like y’all need sleep (」ﾟヘﾟ)」but im 100% appreciative of the staff and everyone.

i think brlns will have major updates coming. there’s nothing wrong w/ being a small server. if it gets bigger like the ones automatically listed, it may get toxic like them. imo, i think brlns is perfectly fine as it it. would newer games be nice? yeah. am i demanding it? no. we all shld prob just lay back and let vertx and the staff do their thing, instead of being like give us new stuff now :/

They we're, but I never said anything to describe them like calling them good or anything. Just some context on how people have too much bias when looking at ideas. They weren't the best, but do show a point that ideas can be hated because of bias, instead of more logical reasons on why they should/shouldn't exist.

Adding new games tbh isn’t really gonna do much else. Some other servers have only like 4 games and they still get a lot of players. (not promoting)

i think it’s the fact that they’re not improving on what games are here already, like quake for example. And no i’m not saying staff is not working, bc i see how hard they work and it’s crazy hard. but i feel like the focus should be on improving the games we already have. If we get a new game, we all know it’s just gonna be the fun new game, then die out. Improving the games and adding different game modes would make the games possibly more interesting. like in mw, u can choose how much ppl u want on a team. just an example, and i am aware that this isn’t very easy. and let it be known that i speak for all of us when i say we are extremely thankful for everything vertx and staff do for us

like on one of the servers- uh- ima call it teddy bear server (don’t ask). they have an opinion for diff modes of a game. solos, duos, or teams of 4. if it’s possible we cld have smthn like that but maybe bigger modes- just as a suggestion ig

I think that Brokenlens HAD the potential to be #1 server with the most players if it had been added in this Minecraft partnership in this automatically list like 2 years ago. I am sure it would still have 8000-10000 players at the same time like before the Minecraft PE update from 0.16 to 1.0. ( I dont know the exactly time.)

I mean the quality of the server increased so much. Annoying Bugs, connection problems, server downtimes etc. became less and less.
I think most of the "hardcore" players still play from back then. The problem is to find new people who are interested to play for a long time. It is frustrating for new players when they see all this like 20 nice looking games but they can only play like 5 of them because the others are dead.

In general I still think the work of vertx or the other staff member and builders are the problem. Instead it is the missing attention which would be solved by advertisements ( I know they would be expensive).

hh i don’t think it’s the staff. it’s just that the server isn’t big. honestly, if it were to get as big as some of the ones listed, it’d probably become not as welcoming. brlns is a smallish server. a lot of people who have been around for a few months knows a majority of the players who have been there long. it’s not like other servers where you never see someone again. i think brlns is fine as it it but that’s me

games can be played. if you have a party going on with like 5+ any game can be played. some people just pick to not play that game. if the server is to expand people aren’t gonna go to the dead games so what’s the point of trying to make it bigger. they’ll see mm/sw/etc and join not looking at the dead games.

I think it's entirely up to vertx if he wants more staff. Honestly, I think many people applied. But he must see something we don't. Like the fact that things still get done even with the small amount of staff members we have. Even with many of them taking breaks, they're still getting stuff done.

And I'm not saying more staff members aren't needed. Because I do believe it will help to lighten the load of many of the staff members online. And, with seeing how stressful is is in-game with the few staff I could understand (=_= with annoying hackers creating 5 billion different alt accounts), I think it would help, and there is no harm in signing up. <3

But still things are still getting done..so I don't really see a huge, huge need for more staff. And many of the older staff members still come to visit so it's pretty convenient to have their help at random times. But for those that are gone and don't come back, like at all, I really (and personally) think they should be removed because it's so confusing tagging or talking to staff that no longer come online. However Pine stated that them being there causes no harm so I see no problem in any of the staff's decisions. <3
