without new content bl will suffer

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

And idk, many people believe they are fit to take on the role of a staff member, but truly, we might find out otherwise. And, it's all in your actions and character. If the staff see things that you refuse to see or may not see don't be upset if they don't pick you. Heck, I wont be upset. I'll still go on living lol, they never said it was a burden for members to help, and many of us tend to take over what staff could be handling. You barely hear them complain about it though. But like, I think many of us applied, probably boatloads, and if we aren't chosen, oh well, they must know something we don't, or see something we didn't catch.

Some (sometimes most) people don’t even treat him like a human being, they’ll go nuts or won’t even explain their point of view properly, he does indeed check all the sections on the forums, although there might not be much communication he clearly listens to things people suggest - like changing the amount of chicken on farmers kit for example. There’s a lot of stuff that’ll eventually come or be worked on / added but for now you guys have to be patient and understand things take time, lots of it, especially whenever it’s a one man team.

communication is always great and of course there could always be more of it, but he definitely doesn’t just ignore what people want.

I’m not trying to be rude, but maybe he could respond so we could fix the confusion. And we can “treat him like a human”.

I think we should have some more staff members. Like there are so many inactive staff and staff that left that there are like 5 active staff members. Sometimes ally has to ban hackers, and shes a builder.

I truly don't care about staff members. I don't care how many there are and I don't care how efficient they are. in fact, the server doesn't need anymore staff members because the server doesn't have enough people for that

When you talk about BrokenLens 'dying', you have to take into consideration that perhaps Minecraft itself is dying, too. Minecraft has been around for a very long time— a whole decade of exploration, adventure, and fun. However, there is only so much you can do, and at some point people will end up losing interest. That's not to say Minecraft isn't popular; obviously there is still a lot of interest in Minecraft, but overall it simply isn't as big as it used to be. And, well, that will of course affect the number of players playing at any given time.

I don't think BrokenLens is dying just because of a lack of content. Sure, it could be a reason some people leave, but overall I think it's dying as a result of Minecraft itself dying out.

Aside from that, I don't think there's a need for any more staff. Things can be a little slow at times but things are getting done, and it will only be a very minor convenience to have more. Of course, it would be nice to have another dev— just someone to lend Vertx a helping hand in debugging, fixing issues and coding. However I doubt it's easy to find someone who will do it for free, especially considering it is a very difficult and complex job which requires a specific skill set. So for now, I think we will be fine.

Actually Minecraft is the #1 Game right now. In all 10 years of it being created it's held it's spot. You can also look this up and it will tell you.

Trust me Minecraft isn't dying, and I don't think it will for a long time.

But I do agree with everything else you've said. Like I mentioned as well, things are still getting done. So there really is no need for extra staff. And, even though you see MANY staff online ALL the time, some of them either don't have much to do, find this as their own little job, or just enjoy serving in this area.

But no, I don't think Minecraft is dying.

it may be the #1 game, but a majority of the people playing most likely are on worlds, not servers. i also think mc is losing slight popularity. during the summer it had a big hoorah but now you don’t hear much abt it anymore

ok wow that’s extremely rude. the server still has a lot of people going on, is it less than u want, yes maybe, but it’s still a lot. Staff are the ones holding this server together. Staff are the people who are working on all the games you guys whine for. Staff are the ones banning all the hackers and disgusting people on the server. Staff works extremely hard on what they do to help benefit the server. Don’t be rude to the people who
make this server what it is.

statistically look at this. idk how accurate it is, but all the other servers (i blocked out the names and all) compared to this one

then prob the most known server that’s listed automatically:

brlns has only 1k less than that. is it a lot? yea. do we only have 500 players? no brlns isn’t dying. it’s just some of the games within the server

Thank you. I agree completely. I really hate how the staff are mistreated and underrated about these things.... Like I know many of them just turn it aside and say they don't care, but still I feel like it's disrespectful and degrading. Like of course, I won't argue with anyone anymore if they do it (because like I've mentioned before, if the staff don't really worry, then it's not my place to say anything..which is why I didn't say anything). They work so hard and do so, so much. A million thank you could never express my gratitude towards them... And I know there are always going to be people who are just......themselves....so I can never really just always have a comment to say. But, some things are just out there and like, you just gotta bite your tongue and handle the situation as peacefully as possible.

Bet even still, I respect Muffins choice and decision. I may not have agreed with it, but that's their opinion. So all I can do at this point is accept, respect, and move on...

But I do believe that without new content BL could (not garunteed) have bad side effects. But I put COMPLETE faith in the staff team and I will always look forward to new content from them. Of course, things take time, and it isn't our place to rush or demand anything. You don't have to be apart of the BL community OR play their games so really you have no need to demand (or really say) anything. Your presence isn't required, it isn't necessary, and the world doesn't revolve around BL suiting your needs. Unless you can be grateful with what we already have and wait patiently for the next boatload of new content then refrain from making these threads.

People complain non-stop about things they want fixed and when Vertx fixes it you complain again, because what you complained about still doesn't please you. Let Vertx and the staff team to their thing and stop demanding things from them. It takes TIME, and LOTS of it.

And sorry if this came across as "harsh" but I'm being 100% honest with everyone. I'm not gonna sugar-coat anything to please no one. And, I didn't make this to argue or cause this thread to close.

New content including a new game is on the way, I just don't know when.

we hope so because we’ve been waiting for ages.... but not trying to rush y’all though. I know the fact that vertx & all the other staff members work hard just to make the server better
