well the thing is that the majority of people who started playing wl back then were either teenagers or in their early 20's [rarely any 25+] and well now most of those ppl have obviously grown. Some of my friends left because they were starting college and the game was just too distracting for them, and then there's some that work. So is like most of the "original" players have outgrowned the game, and the only ones left are the ones that are just attached to the game, me personally, I really like all of my characters,mine and those given to my friends who quit. My friends could of just deleted their characters or kept them in case they came back but they gave them to me to take care of them, so I had to figure a way to pass 15r for a bunch of characters and to do instances by myself since no one would join me, I do see several people making instances sometimes there would be 3 instances at the same time but is usually friends doing them together so they have no space for other ppl. Then another problem is I cannot make clothes, it is just too confusing for me, my primary is lvl 12, my jr is lvl 10, and my superior is lvl 8 but I have tried making the clothes or weapons I like but there's too many steps and i get overwhelmed, and people these days only want IM points or trade IM stuff for it. I think that's one of the parts that contributed to the downfall, overpricing things so those who were not IM buyers would just get discouraged and felt like they could not advance. Another thing is that IGG has not promoted wonder land. almost a decade ago, some girl that was my cousin's friend online from the other side of the world, told her that she should try this game out that it was really fun! so she did join and her sisters joined and when I would see them I thought hmm the characters look pretty cute but what's the point, and one of them was like just try it..so one day I did and I made some pretty great friends in wl, so I would log in often just to talk to those friends, then slowly they started leaving, my cousins stopped playing too. One of them says she really misses the game when she sees me play, and sometimes she would help me with instances, but she says that she just has too much work and she is going to go to RU next semester so yeah need to make most money as possible. So yeah the thing is to make wonderland "great" again first you would have to take it upon yourself[because igg wont do sht
