WLRB shut down because some people just don't know how to behave. Mercury and the admins were working really hard to maintain the server and some people just didn't know to appreciate this but instead they even sometimes criticized the system (first, nobody forces you to play it; second, if you have something to say at least do it in a polite manner). I can perfectly understand why Mercury decided to end the whole thing out of a sudden. He probably felt it's not worth it if people were still gonna complain about it all the time.

Shame they closed it though... I still miss it since the way the server was built reminded me of the old wlo times when everything was running smoothly. :( Would be nice if they bring it back but I highly doubt it since, like I said, it's a lot of work specifically for one person.
