There seems to be an incessant trend where the advent of a new spawn directly correlates to the dwindling of incoming players along with those previously part of the community. I would include a graph if I had sufficient data, but unfortunately, I have not noticed such a pattern until now. Perhaps the new spawns don't appear as "noobie" friendly as those in the past years? Perhaps the new spawns are more eye-straining and lag-inducing for players? Personally, I'm not considering many factors, but simply noticing an alarming trend. Hopefully as a community, we can all agree upon the fact that this pattern is not healthy for our server in general.
