1. earthstats dying in between sets making it hard to contact a lot of people who didnt have emails listed on site that we were able to save from ES, or a boxcar login

2. not having access to our inactive userlist of 1200 NA vets i emailed every set and some would come back every set which perfectly balanced those vets that took a set off. that list is stored on ES

3. no new players in the game, between 20-40 members in our tag in 2025 rotated every set (when we were 160 members it was around 40, when around 100 it was around 20), as they were all n00bs trying the game for the first time. since EE started, we have 2-3 recruits per set


i've done almost all recruiting and maintenance/emailing of our inactives for NA the past 5 years... so the above is directly what has caused our tag to shrink last couple sets

ideally the game needs new players. i've messaged untags every set for years, and i've kept track of how many countries are on the server the 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th days of every set for a few years now. of course all that was on earthstats which i dont have access to now... but its been a gradual decline for a long time, and every set is a new low unfortunately. theres 603 players on the alliance server right now... and like 8 years ago that was pretty much the size of just the rage clan

put those marketing gears in action mods, as we're mostly down to the hardcore vets that dont want to ever leave ;) i've always enjoyed meeting lots of new players every set, and its been a while now since i've been able to do that

if you went to another clan you were set as guest, and then inactivated. guests didn't receive emails

your prob the single reason NA has more members than other clans in similar position.

Rage had a similar sized inactive list on estats, but we had no-one who was prepared to contact them every set to get some to come back and play so we slowly dwindled...

I'm not too worried about members - llaar is by far the best recruiter I've ever seen. We may be small now, but I have faith...
