The Future Of EM

over 10 years

EM sure has fallen these past few years, things aren't the same as they were before; the player base has dropped, winning a trophy doesn't have the same hype, the forums aren't as lively, and many former active players are now inactive...

If this continues, EM could be dead within the next decade (5-10 years) or sooner, who knows. Yes, new players will come around and old players will continue to leave but it seems like we are still seeing a downward trend on the activity level of the community instead of an upward trend.

Most of EM's general population is between the ages of 13-18 so with the school season starting, Epicmafia's community will be hit hard and things will start to get worse. We have a cold winter stirring up ahead of us fellow mafioso's and it doesn't look like things are gonna get any better.

Discuss what caused EM to go downhill and what we as a community can to do to change, reform, and help EM flourish again like in the good old days.

With your brain power, we can heal the community together, one step at a time.

step 2 remove the ban system so ban players can play again and be positive members of our society


as much as I'd hate to say this, this would indeed make a notable difference in the activity levels...

all comp lobby players are dead now, reinstating it would have no effect

mods dont understand that it is now much easier for banned users to ruin the competition. like way easier. now we wont know who are real noobs and who are banned users.


That is probably true. Back in the day, you could play with the same people but nowadays, there's no way to weed out the randoms.
