Popular Post Rogue Posted December 16, 2017 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 This is the current state of Asylum. I understand that people have better things to do in their lives then work on Asylum. If this is the case then move on. Let someone else who isn't tired and is ready to step up and fix things to do so. Holding a position in a community and then complaining about being too busy to do anything in that position is happening currently. What is the point of even holding that position at that point? We need to allow new people to help fix the servers. If this isn't the case then the servers will die. Clearly what we are doing isn't working. I also understand that this post will most likely get locked, hidden and tossed into the garbage. Please hear me out. I am in no way attacking anyone. I just want the servers to improve. The first step in doing this will be to make the people holding positions uselessly to step down. We also want to know what is going on. Updates not necessarily in the terms of content but in server performance would be greatly appreciated. Even tiny updates on the forums in the means of a simple post just letting us know that something is being done. All the hiding and avoiding questions is really getting old. Give us the community answers. Without us there wouldn't be a you. Please. @Paratus @Motown @bamf @Gnashes As I stated before, I am not attacking anyone here. I just want Asylum to be fixed. If that means making some people step aside to allow others to fill the position then so be it. People sitting in a position and complaining about not having time to actually do anything for that position should be asked to step aside. They took the position to help make Asylum better in the first place so now is the time to let someone else have the position that is actually willing to do something. Please help us fix Asylum.

Steve Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Asylum being in the current state it is in is quite frankly just depressing. Space, BigPapaQ and FrankieMHC like this Link to comment
Jake Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 (edited) You do realize they have a damn near open door policy right? They are literally asking for contributors, the people you say that can "move in and fill the position" clearly aren't here as I am sure we would have heard about them. I am not here to argue, simply point out what is written on the wall in front of you and link you this thread which has been here for ages.

I can vouch for this too @<Jake>. I've seen about 6-7 people publically post they offered assistence but were denied in some way or another. There's probably reasons to why that was the case, but there's definitely people in the community that have offered help Edited December 16, 2017 by Sandwich FrankieMHC and Kev 23 like this Link to comment

"Literally asking for contributors" but also literally accepting only one contributor. It's well known that others have reached out and have been ignored. Truth of the matter is the servers in general are hosted on a fucking toaster + there is no move from developers whatsoever to establish a connection with the community, therefore effectively dwindling the active population of said community. Whole thread posted above is PR bullshit, got people excited for literally nothing. All we have is a texture artist that makes nice skins locked behind $250 donor perks. 250 dollar donor perks that the entire population of the servers couldn't care less about because who in their right mind is going to support Asylum in it's current state? Maybe if the servers were upgraded from toasters to toaster ovens, there was developer-community interaction, and there were updates both in the informative and technical form... maybe people would start to come back. As of right now literally nothing is going to happen despite any amount of bitching. The development team doesn't give a fuck and Paratus is too busy posting pictures of bicycles and hats on twitter every other year as proof of "development" of a game that won't see the light of day until I'm well into my eighties. The end of these servers is approaching quickly, even more quickly when you factor in the "developers" ignorance to these problems.

Basically what everyone has already replied to you about him not actually wanting or getting contributors. I reached out to him about becoming one and the message was looked at but ignored. Sure the only things I have implemented was the police light changes, but I could definitely do more. That's just one example of doing more. Considering I have a degree in software engineering I could basically do about anything. I've been part of APD senior staff for basically 3 years and have never received any disciplinary action or server bans. Yet I don't even get a reply about contributor.

It's worse then it was if anything. It would lag before with the BE kicks as well. Everything is fucked up and it's not getting fixed. Within a few weeks or less, Olympus will add in defibs and Asylum will lose whatever population it has left. Someone has to pull their shit together. FrankieMHC likes this Link to comment

Except what you don't realize is there is MANY members of the community good with SQF, and other sources of editing / code that have been sent away. There is multitudes of people who have designed content and been ignored and denied for reasons outside of my knowledge. I could literally log in the gaming asylum ts and point out atleast 3 people who make content for arma that haven't been used or 3 people who have offered to help code who do it for a living.

Agree With alec here, Although what is really annoying that you give a job for paratus to code something that is completely irrelevant and doesnt help asylum what so ever, if anything having paratus come up with an idea and time to code it just like STRIFE which was a huge success in terms of popularity, but this time needs to be well spent into something that will catch the community's attention in terms of the LIFE side.

BaDaBiNg_10-8 Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 I will admit after taking a 7 month break and returning a few weeks ago, I was rather disappointed to see the server(s) population so low. When the FSA has gone to the wayside, I know we are in trouble. Hopefully Asylum will return to it's previous greatness soon. #Pre6.0. Alec-I, HomeTrlx, Walt and 10 others like this Link to comment

Scott Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 I’m not sure that they understand that we complain because we love asylum and we want it to change, not just to complain. I know that most of us still would love to play a working and fun asylum. People aren’t going to Olympus because it’s a better server, they’re going there because they can play without having to make a comp request and start over on what you were doing every 15 minutes.
