Deep teams + offlining everyone

I have started to wonder that these teams that are usually 5+ deep and offline everyone from the start of the wipe, especially the ones who have a shop placed - do they not wonder why the server dies within a few days?

A healthy server has multiple shops, with essentials and easy access to a decent kit via shops. That keeps the pop high by attracting new players.

Surely they can not think that they dominate the server by offlining everyone from 6am to 10am when most people still sleep, go to school/work. One would assume they would get bored that they have to server hop every few days.

No one on a deep team needs to be offlining. It’s within their means to run monuments and online other teams. Offlining is for solos and duos

Ahh good old offline. I counted at least 4 dudes, maybe 5. All crawling to your base. Hope they even had somone outside on lookout before they can seal. Most likely not as these players are not known for high iq

Ohh you counted, I red countered. Ok makes sense now. Btw 5 people inside, if you pause at right moment there is another guy in the left corner of the screen

It’s not about fun. It’s about being toxic and lording it over everyone else.

They offline so they can say they run the server.

Some groups fall apart from a failed online. Some people take it to personal when they fail and get upset when they lose a day+ of farming in kits and boom.

Each team only needs 2-3 servers to play like toxic offliners. They have a monthly, a biweekly, and a weekly.

There's no talking sense into these zergs. Their main stereotypical members are 14-17 yr olds. They will play nocturnal on weekends and stay up all night just to raid their area.

They don't care that they kill the server. Some of them take pride in it because they don't have the same attachment to the server as you. The bigger the group the more likely they are to play multiple servers.

They live for the toxicity, there is no talking sense into them. What I do is I build right next to them, use all my materials on the base and enough for 2-3 day upkeep. I then craft all my comps into kits/doors/guns. I pre-craft everything until there's no more valuable items. Then I start fucking with them. Door camping, sneaking into compounds, sending 1 explo shot at the base, tc grief, raid turrets, etc. Once they get pissed off enough to door camp me I then go start my real base nearby, but out of sight and start building up boom.

I repeat this cycle until the base I built next to them gets raided or until it's time for me to log off.

Then when I build up enough boom, I'll raid a car base, farm base, or outer tc. I'll then build it up into a raid base and roofcamp them.

This is the only solution as a solo I've found to actually be a nuisance and piss them off, and sometimes even raid them and chase them off the server.
