    First and foremost, the MMR system completely ruined my enjoyment of the game. I appreciate all the dev work Spooked put into TW and every bit of effort he poured into improving the game, but I believe he should have never touched MMR. The system he introduced made matches frustrating and unenjoyable. The old MMR had a well-balanced algorithm that made matches fun every night, with top players fighting for leaderboard rankings.

    The issue with the current staff is that they don’t take constructive critism well and when you voice your opinion you’re considered a whiner lol.. we are the players, we are what keeps this game alive, its already miserable we have to play with YOGI and a bunch of dooksters, why flaw the MMR system? If the majority agrees the new MMR system is bad, why not revert to what worked? Instead, they replaced a solid system with something nobody wanted. MMR was ultimately the last straw for me. In what world does it make sense to play a point spread system where you have to win the game by 92 just to get 0 points, or drop 27 kills and still lose 30 points? The system is completely broken. It punishes good performances and makes matches feel pointless. This is exactly why so many players, including myself, lost interest.

    The second reason I quit was the time zone difference after moving to a new country, which made it difficult to play regularly.

    I truly loved this game, but the new MMR system definitely drove me away from the game, not playing til 8am to drop 25 kills and lose 42 points, shit is dreadful..

    Like I said, I’m not downplaying anything Spooked has done for the zone but he definitely plays a big part on damaging the playerbase because he is stubborn and thinks he knows what he’s doing out there.. I hope he does what’s right and listens to the people of TW or he’s gonna be logging in with YOGI and DefaultDelphin18.
    exactly

    im all for what this extremely bright and articulate young man is saying. You speak very well. Anywho, some of us old timers (played LJ 03 with Elenya--took team to Playoffs), really try to get back into the game but are pushed away by a clunky system or by actual demented human beings (trancetunes mostly) and his gay pet ChiWawa (pawner).

    Ahoy,
    Paradise

    Not SS people, some quantitative analysis people and head hunters. You will be surprised how many bored people are there, they seem to be hiding in every corner on earth.

    I started playing this game 25 years ago, pretty much around the same time when I started uni, since then I have clocked thousands of hours on this game and its forums.

    The first time when I cut down on playing hours was when I began to work full time - after 2 degrees and a postgrad degree, I no longer had any excuses to stay in uni any more. As an avid job hopper, I have changed plenty of jobs, although the longest ones were all located in the CBD. As such, I spent a lot time social during that period - it's amazing how many people can be packed in the city centre during working days, so it was not hard to bump into a familiar face or arrange a catch up with someone you know. There was also a bit work related traveling at one stage.

    Then I moved my attention from TW forums on to linkedin, and did what I did here, there. That was probably not the wisest decision that I have made - people called me in pretence of offering me professional roles, but they seemed to be more interested in trolling me.

    The time when I have finished making my own game and published it on ios was when I stopped playing this game altogether, like, I have lost appetite for all games.

    Subspace/continuum was fun, but so are many other things.

    I quit playing because the game was on the verge of death. The same whiners in league who thought they were better than everyone. A-ss was right. To many shit talkers with no respect. The population is what made this game great. I bet if I logged on right now. Free spirit would be in FR and tower would be spamming nonsense.

    Aye, had a messy divorce, moved and forgot which button to press to turn the computer on all together I guess. Few years of gray blur. These days, my kids got me back to gaming but they offer little challenge in Paw Patrol Grand Prix.

    hope they stopped harassing rab and rab can return - - it is a decent game but yea it has some issues -- i tried reinstalling and had a decent public match though just 2 going to base, The new large base and setup are fine with possible to return to classic bases even better in other arenas but yeah the zone population is lots lower lately and am not sure if bot statistics are more important than help calls as well. It works but staff might change some things to improve the game - squadrons to form or join them no clue why population levels aside from real host events get next to nothing. It might just be a smaller game than in the past and needs more time so yea then rab and others can rejoin. Missing the whiterabbits a lot though the training in them and Anti Scrub are pretty tough. only reason revisiting is the game is has its old charm and function so nothing bad there but maybe needs extra options for better times in the future of it. - new rosters and classic rosters as well have clashes am uncertain about as time spans too...am missing the base game still so hope that stays at least - incentives for classic squadrons might work too - the game expanded lots more than previous thought it might rather than wolvencreed and ensare playing rock music in public the rest is pretty impressive they may change their ways yet. The printout ... a 50 Squadron History of League Titles - massive stuff like history slab from novelty shop. I liked Cram Busters would play with those again if Rab change his mind or maybe just both rejoin whiterabbits no clue why they left the nets- if reason enough then fine but line duty with bigwig was kind of fun and funny no clue if that hurt too
