Kiting stuff, keep it here!

Well problem was cause people were arguing for the servers when guys "bombed" their kiting runs. Tho most of the time people just joins as they are new and seeks to play with more skilled players and gets insulted or annoyed if they dont feel welcome and they argue back. Totaly understand that, and why it got annoying to devs to listen to that behaviour from both sides, guys that were kiting wanting server for themselfs and guys that joined being pissed cause they got pushed away. But seriously both sides should just suck it up, and be understanding to each other. Kiters imo should have the right to ask "can I play alone" as it's not really rude and you're not really telling a player to go away and piss off, but just asking politely, if he leaves then fine, if not, so be it, no-one broke any rule (that's my personal opinion). There's no need of arguing, sure sometimes people feel "why would a low tier join when he'll just be dying constantly" which is indeed silly, but you can't blame them, some are new and seeking to play. I always tell them, sure you can join but I can't always protect you and you'll most likely die alot. So they either leave or they join, see it for themselfs and then quit . Or sometimes people are even usfull and then more people joins and kite with you and sometimes you have a successful full team game. A lot of runs got hold together like that, now what's going on is, no-one even joins the server to kite cause they feel like it's not worth playing alone as they'll mostly just die a lot as maps are totaly unfriendly to kiting, so less runs gets started and people play less as well. I can say for myself, I used to join teams and kite. Mostly was starting with kite and when I got bored I joined the team, now sometimes I dont even feel like starting my game up so I'm less around, apart from life taking my time this days. So mostly doing organised event runs and sometimes help on servers after the event for a run or 2 since I'm just in-game. Or if someone calls me to kick a guy he reported I end up staying for that game since I'm there already.

There's a lot of people that literally quit just cause they can't fully enjoy the mod the way they want, involving kiting. There's so many players that told me »tell me if kiting comes back or else I'm not coming back«, so that clearly tells a lot and many people said it in-here already how they feel about it and what are their wishes. Of course devs wishes for the mod are also important, but it's very important to talk to the community and both find a common ground to suit the wishes of both sides for the mod to function properly and grow highly.

Regarding loots... I dont really care about loots that much personaly as long as there IS a chance even if it's a bit lower it's fine by me. So that nerf was totaly fine after the new update of NI, but now map nerfs just for destorying it further is a poison for the mod cause it's driving people away and for some of the players it's even an insult.
Hopefuly this coming from me can open some eyes bit further even tho this stuff were told already many times so I feel like I'm even repeating it. But ye, stuff are still the same and more and more players are leaving so that should clearly tell something.
