Why did you quit haven in w11? [Strawpoll]

I have created a strawpoll asking why people decided to move on from haven in w11, or why they have become less active.
Please fill out the poll-- multiple answers are allowed.

Edit: I missed bots as an option, rip

What if I re-joined in w11?

I suppose I could just list the reasons I quit in w9, since all of them still applied.

Died to an exploit by an enemy player, base raided, wasn't going to catch up to ql grind again, and frankly I got pretty pissed at the response about the bug and general demeanor of the devs at the time, and that took a year and some time to cool off.
the proliferation of automation is the rot of this game, with the next worst thing being the filth that plays it (you, probably.)

W7 - Hermit
W8 - Co-LS of R'lyeh, Owner of the Hermitarium Knowledge Group
W9 - LS of Niflheim
W11 - Hermitage (named Niflheim)
W12 - Hermit -> some rando ass village i forgot the name of that i joined
W10,13-15 - N/A

If your reason isn't on the poll or if you are still happily playing with no complaints please post in this thread instead

I'd rather it focus on problems with the game itself rather than outside factors like that

is disliking the devs an inside factor?

Had a HDD glitch that ate all my map data. I probably spent as much time prospecting and researching all those markers for quality and specific information. I tried to get back to what I was doing, but recreating all of that has just been something I haven't wanted to tackle.

I haven't completely quit, but the log ins are pretty infrequent.
Opinions expressed in this statement are the authors alone and in no way reflect on the game development values of the actual developers.

I've heard of people leaving because of design decisions they've made and in Salem some quit over world views .. but I view it more as disliking their roadmap and ways of developing the game

Also, I realized I didn't make a "bots" option

Bots is a big one.

Spies too, although no harsh feelings with you.
