TOPIC: [JAILBREAK] Resignation

Sad that it's come to this, but I've decided to resign from my position as Jailbreak Head Admin. The love I once had for the server has died out, as I've begun to realise it's a lost cause.

However, one thing that's incredibly sad is how the server turned out in the end.

THE COMMUNITY constantly asked for a Jailbreak server and then THE COMMUNITY just let it die once they had what they wanted. Makes me wonder how deserving we all are of new servers, or if there's any success at all to be found in new servers.

Apologies to Clarky, as I feel like I'm letting you down, however I don't feel right just holding the rank and doing nothing with it.

smh now theres NO somewhat active staff on jb, rip thx for the work though

a true legend! - Chuteuk

Thanks for all your work! (thanks for that m202 u once gave me when i was warden ;^) )

you're a lad mate, thank you for your work
ticking time bomb <3

):

It's looking not very good for the future of Jailbreak, you were the last standing Lead Team. Thank you for all your hard work Mr. Sorle!

That’s all of us gone now... Myself, Blocked, Aek, Wolfie and now you...

Thanks for your work on the jailbreak server!

And with that, Jailbreak has fallen
Thanks for your work!

Thanks for all your work man!

P.S I never asked for jailbreak and even I tried to help the server at times, just proves your point even more.

At least the murder lead team stuck with the server till the very end

It really is a shame it had to die, it was actually very fun

You forgot to add that you have to run and hide from the murderer!!!!!

and shit, well, hurts to say but sorle you were the most active staff, and behind you, Clarky, and behind Clarky, well, really nobody, you tried your best, most likely harder than anyone, and im sure clarky is happy for that.

Jailbreak is a great server and has always been, it’s extremely disapointing to see the server fail like this. Clarky and DEAD put so much work into this and it still failed, even after the awesome update.

Anyways you were extremely dedicated to the server. You always asked people to get on (and staff unfortunetly) and it is very sad to see the last HA go. Thank you for your work, i respect you.

It's because the community doesn't know much about running servers; what sounds good on paper usually doesn't work when you try it out. I predicted JB would die out (Mexi could vouch for that) since it's a pretty plain gamemode even though it's got potential with alot of work. The foundations of JB are weak and rely on the same gameplay over and over again.

Gamemodes like SSRP are much more reliable with more variation on what you do. Same goes to StarwarsRP and MilitaryRP. Gamemodes are clearly getting more complex with more variation to attract different kinds of gamers. TTT is an example of a a gamemode with pretty weak foundations since all you do is to figure out who is the traitor game in and game out. However it has alot of more elements to it which makes it more interesting to play consistently without getting bored.

Zarp needs to focus on making a gamemode that allows for collecting, gameplay, solid ranks, strong foundations and so on. I'm personally a believer in MilitaryRP for multiple reasons: You don't have to be a nerd to enjoy it, easier to get a grasph of the rank system, more relatable cause it exists in real life so you'll understand it easier. So while it's smaller than Starwars, I believe it's easier to run since we have no dedicated starwars players on Zarp.
