Refrain from adding Admin Abuse to DR

Why not?: Games with admin abuse are almost always associated with oversaturated slop games made to get clicks and money without putting in any real effort. This would hurt Dead Rail's reputation to becoming a game that solely seeks money over player enjoyment.

What would it do?: Admin abuse would negatively affect both Dead Rail's player progression and how they view the game over time. Weekly admin abuses, such as giving out many bonds or free classes would make actual grinding near obsolete and strays away from the fun of grinding for classes/trains. Holding many admin abuses would only fuel the player base to wanting more, eventually getting tired if the setup doesn't change or give them more.

And many possible players would be driven away from the game since they'd think it tries to copy the trend from other highly popular games such as 99 nights, who also hold admin abuse events. Making them think Dead Rails is a cheap knockoff "slop" game made for money and money only.

What to do instead?: Add occasional developer meet-ups with players, or live competitions that involve players competing for a specific prize. That way, it can still gain player attention without giving them too much for them to ask for more.
