In short, I won't go on — I'm speaking purely about }{yйmagic and its community. In light of the recent discussions on this site.
This is just a herd of defectors hopping from project to project. The server is going through tough times right now (but as Tropas said on the podcast, the main thing is for you to donate — by the way, how many times did he say that on “Developer Answers”? Anyone remember?)
Apparently, the guys really want the player count back, because the server is lying ass-up and can't even get from its belly to its knees. While people are playing on normal projects, your own administration in Telegram chats answers questions about the player count with: “We're resting.”
I've heard and seen more than once how players from }{yйmagic come into other projects, promote their server, and sling shit at other projects (proofs — well, I'll leave a couple of screenshots from }{yйmagic's official public social media).
If you want to play on a cheap, broken copy of someone else's project, where the player count is zero, where players churn out glowing reviews and shit on other projects from alt accounts — welcome!!!
