It's simple. The server was fun when it was 'boring' when it had no weapons like it does today when it had players that had to rely on skill instead of suits. To clarify, it was fun pre paramontana having 9 accounts and printing up to 1 billion. The days when Johnny Smith and Mario used to own the best gang because they were skilful players. It just doesn't have that flare anymore. Also, most of the original players from its peak (2015-2017) have grown up and moved on with their lives.

From what I've read in this thread out of curiosity it seems fairly obvious what to do to get players

- new server not on database, with very few items, so everyone starts on zero

- say there will be wipes every 6 months, keep this regularly

- sponsor popular gmod streamers/youtubers to come play on the server

the same thing that happens on ARK servers happens here when a server isn't wiped, the people who grinded for years smush the newbies trying to build mudhuts, the people who have all the stuff get bored at the skill gap and leave the newbies stop playing because the 1-2 old people left just keep ruining the fun for any newbies that join

with the planned wipe it means players can have rivalries without the need to hoarde every single bit of money or item they make, and near the end of wipe it gets full chaos as everyone uses everything they made

to make money without people losing stuff, limit like 50 packs per person per wipe, or just install non-intrusive ads or something, or even a patreon with only 1 tier so people can support it willingly and gain a slight buff would work

just my 2c

Why doesn't OSRS, WoW and other Roleplaying games wipe if it's such a winning concept? SSRP is a long-term investment.

Other roleplaying games don't have the issues presented with zarp as seen above from everyone complaining, and If I'm honest semi-serious RP is hardly RP.

the fun part of ssrp from posts above and from my short time playing, seem to derive from player vs player action and the fact it used to be so equal, now it's not due to the monopoly the older players have over the new, making the new players feel 'whats the point?' and the older players being bored with their huge amount of items and money

things like wow aren't pvp based. They have lore, a story, quests etc. They're not a small garrys mod map thats modded with the prime goal to make more money and kill others.

Aspect wrote: SSRP is not an RPG lmao, it’s more like Rust/ARK than any of those games so try and imagine what it would be like to play a Rust server that never wiped then you’d get an idea of something kinda similar but not even close to scale because there’s no where near as big of a difference between maxed Rust players and a maxed SSRP player, if you are a new player getting raided by a Jugg+Gluon using ur shitty kriss vector or whatever there is literally nothing you can do

Well, SSRP is in a terrible shape, its even worse than 2019 when there was just a handfull of players on but now, 2022, it's just crazy, i've never seen a server from a large community be like that.
A wipe will never happen, people who have bought boosters may be able to sue zarp or some stuff like that idk, but it's one of the reasons why ssrp will not get wiped.

I think, a community q&a is necessary, but let's just hope it will be more open on both ends because i don't want to see dumb questions answered in a dumb away..

Gluon beats everything, said it for years now. Everything is around the gluon, new suit comes out? How quick does a gluon kill it? New cool weapon comes out? Gluon better. The only couple things that beat it are QED (1 time use) or the steel ninja at max power ball trap (dies in seconds to gluon)
