1. Scared / too lazy (not their fault they don't get paid) to add new things, IMO this happened after house weed because of how significantly it effected the economy but its not that hard to see if things are going to be balanced or not. Also this is the simplest way to incite people to return to the server.
2. There is too much reluctance to do the simplest things like adding vehicles or removing money making methods that don't get used like LSD for new ones to attract old and new players. (on another note, there is too many things in the middle of the map which causes everyone to sit in cities which just isn't fun for anything (cop, civ fights, medic)
3. There is no vision or plan for the future
4. It became way too easy to rank up in the community/ there are too many admins. Admins that barely understand the rules or nitpick at the most simple situations for whatever reason. Things that would never have never been considered ban-able a few years ago are now ban-able (depending on the admin you talk to because they seem to have read different rule books).
