Popular Post Majima Goro Posted December 28, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted December 28, 2019 Orbis needs a way to disagree and show their dissent of posts. We need a tool to show we don't support an announcement or a new judgement or something of that sort. The game becomes stagnant if the admins don't understand what the game wants and what it does not. While all current reactions are ""Yes, I agree" or "That is funny" or "I support this", we lack a reaction which says "Frick off" or "No one likes you dummy". The proposal: Add a new reaction called "Downvote". It can look like this: It's effect will be lowering the reputation of the post(and in general of the poster overall). This will give politics a whole new dynamic where you might wage wars because people down-voted you. It will also have an effect where communities can mass-downvote people to make them look dumb. It will give Orbis a rebellious voice as well as can be used for targeted Dumb Person Attacks. 2 1 3 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Etat Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 A dichotomous approach to ideas represented by the upvote/downvote function stifles debate and thus improvement/refinement of said ideas. It is a tool favoured by those who struggle with nuance and depth of understanding, by those prone to herd mentality, and generally promotes division amongst communities.

Clarke Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 If there was one reason to bring back the downvote it is "Blutarch Mann". I don't know how to express my rage. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is words are more toxic than a downvote though, which is the opposite of the goal Alex is trying to achieve. How dare you encourage subversive behavior against our overlord Alex!

Alex is the developer and owner of a game with 14,814 players(or less) No offense, just didn't see how that makes someone an overlord And also, I would have just down voted your reply but.......

I see the joke went over your head. I'd be surprised but expecting anything more from a leader of Pantheon would be absurd. Realistically the active playerbase is hovering around 4000 and has been steadily declining for months, even inspite of GPWC and GOONS 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or did you forget about Thanksgiving, Octoberfest, American Thanksgiving, Halloween, Christmas AND New Years? That's still discluding jobs and final's for those in college/Uni.

Nice try I guess, except for that the population had already been dropping before that and their introduction spiked it by around 1200 or so before continuing back down after the GPWC flood in particular was slowing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think your missing the point goons / GPWC account for almost the entire spike, even with the surge of new players the game is still tanking in players. Yes im sure finals and the holidays accounted for a portion, however this has been a on going trend since late may. Actually its even more concerning because Goons has retained a decent active base, GPWC has retained 300 and its still dropping.

No I didn't miss it at all, people come and go in online games and all games have a lifespan. Even World of Warcraft has been on a downward trend for years, it's just a thousands vs millions. Hell Destiny was bragged and bragged about as a 10 year game, that lasted all of 4 weeks before that game basically died out after the initial release. Destiny 2 suffered the exact same fate. No man's Sky also comes to mind as a big fail. Anyway I was just commenting on how the graph you posted looks, which is currently on an upward trend in January.
