On, Change.org I made a petion requesting the prevention of Free Realms shutting down. It was one of the major games of my childhood. Even if I couldn't spend money on it, that still didn't stop me from playing it. There was so much to do from fighting monsters to training pets. I heard on the news that a PSN hacker by the name of Lizard Squad sent a bomb threat to the SOE president, John Smedley, saying there were explosives on the plane that he was riding in. This caused the company to drop three of it's major games, one of which I guess was Free Realms due to it's high popularity. Some people have been telling me that it was because of the massive decline in players. According to a link I found, Free Realms has been temporarily shut down before due a security breach. If that's the case, I bet people quit because they were afraid of getting their information stolen. The problem is only getting
worse and worse over the years, and even much as I want it, we can't get Free Realms back unless this problem is eliminated.
The answer isn't by improving security. The answer is getting people to stop. If we keep making it stronger, we will end up to the point of not even being able do anything because it's too secure. Not only was this game fun, but the people there actually pretty nice, I rarely ever saw a fight. The biggest argument I saw was whether the Sunset was a prank or not (I could've swore I saw that boat house before). I might not have even saw any for all I know. That doesn't mean that there weren't any mean people on there. There will always be at least few mean people where ever you go. That just means the majority of the community was more focused on having a good time instead of trolling others for attention, unlike most people today. If someone was rude, people took care and reported it like they should. Before the game returns, we need to change people. We need to teach them how to have fun and make money without ruining the lives of others. To show them to be kind and things will get better. If your with me, I say lets return the world to the way it was and to restore our beloved game in the process.
