Everytime I look at the server list nobody is ever playing, the forums seem active though...

The player base has shrunk rapidly in the past few years, due to various reasons (mostly relating to the initial buggy build that was 193 that was later fixed with server plugins) the Game hasn't really recovered completely, but its starting to make steps, with rumors of new releases and potentially updates on the new version and what the devs are doing...

That had better not be optimism DW.

The forum community and the SourceForts-playing community are somewhat disjoint. Most people here don't actually play SourceForts but just enjoy the community because we're so nice and friendly. However recently there have been quite a lot of pugs going on recently, and it looks like the game might just be picking up momentum. I'd hate to be optimistic but things are looking good.
