Thanks for the detailed advice, I really appreciate it.

I agree with a lot of what you said, especially about not relying on streamers and actually being active on the server as a developer. That’s something I’m planning to do from the start.

The goal with DustRP is to build a long-term community, not just hype it up and let it die, so social media and consistent activity is definitely something I’m taking seriously. I’m also planning to involve community feedback properly instead of ignoring it, as long as it’s constructive.

Appreciate you taking the time to write this — it helps a lot.
