Why not trying to figure out how to turn the trend around instead of only pointing towards the negative all the time?


Don't you think some good suggestions have been brought up during the last few years to turn around the negative trend?

I guess we will have to wait until the game bottoms out.

So why do you ask for suggestions, if there are many good ones waiting to be introduced?

Start from there.

I definitely think as a community we should be all about trying to create an environment that people sign up and want to play in- which definitely means positivity!

Although its obviously a bit concerning that people are leaving the game (we all want to see it be successful) it would be better to do something about it rather than spend too much time talking about the game 'dying'.

I for one would love to do some offsite stuff maybe blogs/podcasts/videos with anyone else that would interested. Don't want to take traffic away from the site but it could be another way to engage people who might quit BB or get more people to sign up.

The rate of decline is declining faster than the actual user numbers. This would suggest that sooner or later we will stop losing users and reach a balance, probably pretty soon, especially if we find a way to genuinely start attracting people and/or brining people back.


How would that be a surprise? the problem is that the game wont grow again.

I agree with you. I think a good mark that we will never see BB drop below is 18-19k. As to if it drops to that point, my hope is no, but it could. The decline of the decline is clearly taking place and at some point it will level out and then stay around there or start growing again in my opinion. Once again, I feel like a well worked on app for BB is what will lead to more income and users to BB personally, so I expect a gradual decline to 18-19k until BB creates that app and it flips in reverse hopefully. If the user number drops below 20k is when people will really start flipping s*** though, so that may be interesting if it gets to that point. I will be optimistic though, and hope it does not drop much more from the 23kish users we have now.

The game don't need to grow, it needs to have enough users/income that BBs don't quit and find a different job.



The second team feature made enough money to get the App done - where is it?
