The fact of the matter is this: without the development of this game, its end was inevitable. Over 15 years and nothing has changed in this game, and you're all bitching about politics and DSB and your e-penises and rules and regulations and blah blah blah. In the gaming world you either have to continue forward, or re-invent yourself. You can't stay stagnate for almost two decades and actually believe you're going to have new players. In all honesty, all the politics and everything else mentioned wasn't even apparent to regular players. When I first started I never knew any of that stuff. It wasn't apparent until I started staffing and coming to these forums, where the politics and bullshit was always posted in the open, that I knew what was going on.   When it comes down to it, you can't have a 15 year old game that doesn't progress. Who the hell would want to play a 15 year old game on a consistent basis? Even mega games like Counter Strike are taking a hit because they never developed. The exception to that though, is the fact that it DID develop into Counter Strike: Source. What has Continuum developed in to? It's the same thing with a different skin on it.   If you really want to save this game, you find a coder who's talented enough to reverse engineer what's currently here (like Pritt did in the first place) and actually gives a damn, or you find someone who's willing to do it for money, and you progress the game. Without that, no new player is going to give a shit. And why should they? No amount of advertising or article writing or site updates or domain changes will bring in new players. If anything, it will just alert people who used to play the game that the game is still alive.   "Oh look, an ad for Continuum. I remember playing that 10 years ago. I wonder what's happened since....[plays game].... absolutely nothing....[uninstall]. Back to playing something else."   And that's how it goes. Without someone to recode this game and move it forward, there's really no logical reason why it would survive. You can sit here and fight, bicker and complain about it all you want, but in the end it will get you no where. Cut your loses and move on to something else. Maybe turn the community in to a gaming community. Or, just go your separate ways. That is, unless, you can do anything about the current situation.
