The Great Desertion

The Great Desertion is an event in the ChillCraft4 universe that began not too long after its inception. Over the course of real-life months, players like Wobsy, tbtom25 and the Muart couple began to slowly stop visiting the server. Upon being questioned as to why, the most popular responses were:

"There's nothing to do"

"It's boring"

"The plugins ruin it"

"The Americans ruin it"

"Derek and his friends ruins it"

"Can't be bothered"

"I'm waiting for ChillCraft5"

Perhaps in a sixth-sense kind of way, Mowntankik has only visited ChillCraft4 once or twice, maybe in anticipation of the death of the server. Player counts reached 10+ at the Reign of the Americans time period but soon the Americans themselves stopped playing and player counts recessed to 4 on a busy day. The Opening of the End was anticipated to bring upwards of 7 players back but this only revived Phosphor and Play dO's interest in playing, if only by a little bit. The Friends of Friends of Friends time period, technically still going on, basically dug this universe its grave.

The Great Desertion is theorized to be a natural phenomenon that occurs every cycle of chillcraft. It is believed similar events occurred in chillcraft 3, where eventually the player base diminished. This phenomenon is being researched in order to understand and prevent it.
