Leadership is in turmoil, playerbase is declining (40 avg a year ago to 23 now). ... It's still fun if you want a text based single player game with light multiplayer.

This is what has held be back from rolling up a new char in the past. I remember the days of 100+ players. It feels like builds unable to solo-rank are becoming untenable in the current environment, and what's the point of bothering with RP if you don't have people to RP with?
