I can understand that players get bored sometimes.

This happens in any game!
Even in big million $ games like WOW you reach such a point.

But KO for me was always special in that way.
the Party and pk system is unique

MaxKO always had ups/downs in population
but it doesnt look bad to me atm.
In fact I even prefer the small pk that we often have on MaxKO
with the small party pk, 5 vs 5 etc...
If you play with friendly people, its still lots of fun.

So I hope you make up your mind and play with us when you can.
