When it got too boring to create the entire world your character interacts with by themselves, rendering it functionally impossible to make any significant actions without skimping heavily on description or having a blatantly godbeing like Trickster, who I had to mentally block to be insensate to meta. Can you imagine how annoying the fucker would be if he knew?

"Hm. We might need to ban god-tier in general. Gods would render this entirely trivial, especially as the two gods are an nearly-omniscient god of knowledge and a fourth-wall breaking trickster archetype."

"The initial playerbase is unlike the current one, at what point did the former start leaving and what events coincided with it?"
"Hm. Well, mainly, just a load of characters came in and shit and nobody could be arsed to keep track of all of them."
"...Wasn't that immediately? Does that mean this was inevitable with the thread founded upon a volatile premise?"

Perhaps. Or make it so that they can't directly affect anything but cosmetics, say Trickster painting the sky or placing clothing on top of a character's head on occasion. Never actually confronting the players.

"Not really. In my opinion, the whole thing was ruined by a lack of defined guidelines, attempts to inject plots leading into the GMs disappearing and of course the result that players ended up waiting for a plot which didn't happen."

"Hmm... the question is, what do the remaining, silent players think is he cause? I do recall that @Kj was against structure."

"So what if it is? It would still yield data that may be considered for other threads of similar nature. Sometimes, it is prudent to accept a loss."

"Very well, then for optimism's sake, let us assume that this is salvageable, what process are we to employ in order to determine our revitalization attempts?"
