The reason I am replying in the way that I am is because I don't think that players know what they want from the server. Jobs are only there for making more money, and money is only useful for things like clothing updates. The same logic could be applied to a trading system and that is one of the most requested features. This isn't gameplay.
I've noticed that since I became a staff member I've been involved in doing updates under themes such as holidays. This isn't gameplay either. However, the majority of the playerbase expects this type of time-sensitive content to be produced. You see it in-game, you see it on the forums, and it truly goes against what I want to see as a player of the game. If nothing was released for Halloween, Christmas or those obscure 'holidays' that we're told to celebrate there would be floods of tears about that too. You can't win.
It's obvious that the staff are distracted by **** that doesn't last very long and it has been this way since the start. When I didn't have to pander to the playerbase I was able to sell my ideas to others and content was produced. Nobody has attempted to do the same. Perhaps it's laziness (I mean, it is easier to whine) or perhaps the playerbase really doesn't know what it wants. Either way, it's always vague and not helpful to anyone.
The moral of the story here is, if you feel like you truly know what you want from your server, start expressing yourselves with a bit more depth and actually sell your ideas.

Rufus I would be very happy to talk to you privately about ideas.. I got a BUNCH.. I understand your pain too... You put a lot out there and people just don't give a **** about it.. You all work on your own time and I am very grateful for it. It takes a lot of work to just put in a house! I know that personally.. So Rufus message me and I'll give you my email. I really want to contribute and talk about this further.. Thanks for your work.
