If you read the post by HT with a clear mind, he does not say he will do nothing more, in fact, while not disturbing the core of design, tweaks will be made.
Aside from older, yet still highly acceptable graphics, I myself don’t want to see the core disrupted.
Maps and skins help sustain a freshness.
While the, and every, community will have inner conflicts, its more like family than most. Its irreplaceable as some have been like family for over 35 yrs. Thats not something that can be created, it naturally evolves over time.
No one should ever be ridiculed or shamed for trying to give it reason to continue. Too bring numbers up, to show others what they might be missing, to throw ideas at the wall to see what sticks/works. No one should be discouraged even if you disagree with an approach.
Since my return, 2022, this community has made great strides in making bbs and ch.200 a more acceptable environment. Even at times it IS bad, its not as bad as it was, its not as bsd as nothing.
As much as it sucks, I’d rather be the center point of heat than see 5-10 going after 5-10 others, within reason. Anyone who knows me, I’m a decent human swallowed whole in
morals, so if I treat someone poorly they should ask themselves why. I do not do it across the board. I cannot be broken more than I already have been.
Nothing is perfect, everything is temporary. No matter how the world changes, AH will always feel like home to many, despite the pros, cons and disagreements. For some, as hard as life can get, its a happy place to break from it. Allow it. Even former players find it hard to leave, that is rare in any game. Like any home and family, when someone kicks the trash cans over, make it as uncomfortable as possible to do so. Its not unacceptable to protect your happy place from vexations to the spirit.
No matter what some thinks, AW is the forefather of AH, many of us will still make comparisons. This is what we always wished AW would have become. But like most kids who grow up, they take on a life of its own, the DNA is still there. Thank god for Kesmai and HTC for making a home we refuse to leave.
There is no other game like it and like our scenarios its irreplaceable. Ya can’t build a community like this.
All that glitters is not gold, but antiques are always cherished, as is. A lot of memories in that “junk”.
You can always buy and drive a new car, there’s nothing like getting in a 1968 Camaro with a 350, 4 on the floor and Micky Thompson tires on the back and crushing the gas pedal.
