I've gone to all my Brokers but none of them give me new contacts or missions.

Not sure what I'm supposed to do or doing wrong.

A larger amount of simple missions in the tip pool would spread out the more complex missions, making them stand out more while also feeling less repetitive.

Rain on a wedding day isn't.....well it's pushing irony for the sake of pushing something to be ironic. But it's hardly ironic. It's a bummer, disappointment, etc. but calling it ironic is stretching the definition both of irony and wedding. Nowhere in the definition of wedding is the word sunny. Scheduling an outdoor wedding comes with risks of bad weather, but not irony.

Irony is if you had rain during a Clearskies Festival.

I moved to Virtue, and things were much better. Recently, a player we knew from the old days logged back in after a couple years break and said Protector was so dead, so he moved to Virtue too.

I understand having loyalty to your chosen server to a degree, I do, but honestly, many of the servers are seriously underpopulated these days, especially compared to how they used to be. To pretend the populations haven't been steadily shrinking because you have "no problems" finding a team is sticking your head in the sand.

Sooner or later, the devs are going to need to cope with the fact that some servers have populations that are drying up. As someone pointed out, it's not good for the game for a new player to log in the first time, select a server at random, and see no one else around. Eventually, something will need to be done: a server merge, a single-server solution, something.

You can stick your fingers in your ears all you want but there is a reality that while you might enjoy playing on a server where you can usually pretend successfully that it's a single player game, this is not good for a business, and a business decision is likely to be made at some point that is probably going to make you very unhappy.

It'd be alot more productive to talk about real solutions to dwindling populations on some servers and thus have at least some voice in shaping that eventual solution than to keep asserting that everything is fine and nothing needs to change, ever. Because like it or not, that's probably not true.
