The biggest difference I see from when I first started playing on these servers (October of 2012) is that the community is just rude now. Not saying everyone is like that, just saying making friends on here is much harder than before. When teaming with random people could start a long lasting friendship. People are complaining on how bad the servers are while the people themselves are degrading the server. If everyone could just be friendly again, many more people would enjoy the servers. Unless that happens, I don't see MCSG lasting as long as I thought back in 2012... In my opinion, the servers themselves are better than ever. It's the community that needs to complete it.
