HEY BROS
So Lady and I have discussed and we don't think Pearl has gained or is likely to gain the traction it needs to survive the way we would need it to suit our purposes. This isn't to say the game is entirely dead, as obviously some people are at least somewhat active and others are much more active. But it isn't active enough or large enough for what we wanted to do.
We are well aware that THINGS COULD POSSIBLY BE DONE to fix this, but one major part of the game, for us, was that it be more-or-less self sustaining. We neither have the time nor the energy to cultivate a thriving team game like we know is possible, as that is very much tantamount to taking on a part-time job.
If someone else has ideas of what could be done to bring the game up to speed and would personally like to implement those ideas in their entirety, you can email the modbox at pearlmods@gmail.com to talk to us about it and we can mull that over. OR, more likely, if you think you would like to start your own game and steal a bunch of pearl ideas but adapt them to work for your own purposes (and superior survivability) by all means!
On the POSSIBILITY that anyone wants to do the above, we're gonna hold off on anything official a couple of days. One way or another you'll hear back from us soon.
