The Vicious Cycle of RuneRebels

Dear RuneRebels staff and community,
It has come to my attention that our beloved RuneRebels has fallen into a relentless cycle. When new players discover this server, they usually stick around for a day or two, then decide to leave due to the lack of active players and updates. Whenever I check out a new server, the first place I visit is the "updates" section on their forums to see how frequently they update their content. The game itself is not as appealing when staff are not active in-game and the game itself has not been updated in a long time. Bottom Line: Players do not want to play a game that has no updates or active staff members in-game.

However, the staff find it hard to find motivation and time to develop and devote their precious time into a project that nobody sticks around and plays. When a developer sees that 50+ players are currently playing his game, he gets the feeling that many players are relying on him to develop new content, and is also easier for the staff to find that motivation to push on compared to a server that only has 2 active players. Bottom line: Developers have no motivation in developing a game that nobody plays.

In order to escape this vicious cycle, Both the players or the developers must go out of their comfort zone and deal with it and keep doing what they need to do. For players, this means making videos, voting, and advertising everywhere. For developers, this means start releasing updates and being active in-game and on the forums. It doesn't have to be major updates, its not the actual BIG UPDATE that lures players into the game, but its the feeling that the staff are always there improving the game. Releasing small updates like the ability to make pizzas or fixing drops mean just as much to the community as something big like a quest. As long as the staff are appealing to the community that they have not left but are still rolling out updates no matter the size, players will stick around longer.


This server needs people to step up and make the first move. The ones who do step up will be remembered as the one who brought back RuneRebels from its coma(cheesy but oh well).

This concludes my suggestion/rant/comment.
Thanks for reading it!

What the fuck did you just fucking say about RR, you little bitch? I’ll have you know RR graduated top of it's class in the duel arena, and has been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Kharid, and RR has over 300 confirmed kills. RR is trained in gorilla warfare and is the top PKer in the entire Varrock guards. You are nothing to RR but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on the lands of Guthix, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to RR over the PM's? Think again, fucker. As we speak RR is contacting its secret network of white knights across falador and your IP is being traced right now by Timmy (using Ryans hacker tools) so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your HP. You’re fucking dead, kid. Rune Rebels can be anywhere, anytime, and Rune Rebels can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with its Rune Scim. Not only is RR extensively trained in unarmed combat, but It have access to the entire arsenal of Falador Castle and it will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of Gielinor, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. Rune Rebels will shit fury amulets all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.
