Bottom post of the previous page:

Paradise to an extent as well, last I checked.
Not sure about goon, but heard something on their combat being like that. Don't have first hand experience to confirm.
It's not like these things have merely stopped existing, now, is it?
I dislike the rules and community of Paradise and Goon way too much to even consider playing there.

In my several thousand hours of SS13, all but maybe like 5 of those have been on /tg/. Simply hopping to a different codebase to play on for the rest of time is a big ask, plus I'm sure they're missing other stuff that I really like. It's kind of like telling a guy who just went through a brutal divorce to just get a new wife. Sure, he technically could, but it wouldn't be the one he loved so much. The sad fact is that my perfect flavor of SS13 no longer exists, but /tg/ is still the closest by far (and again, I'm not saying that it isn't still good! Not being perfect != bad).

What about /vg/ then? It's a refuge of old tg players unhappy with changes.

I hope you reconsider the idea of comparing participation in one community/server with marriage.

I've been through a lot of servers out there, it's part of the beauty of this game: it's so easy to host and code for that most small groups of people that have a vision have the chance to implement it.
And that yields very interesting results, including some really unique servers.
You should definitely try things if you're unsatisfied in your current community, chances are other unsatisfied people share your views and have already taken steps to cater for those needs.

And, if nothing else, it will make you appreciate what you have here and may be taking for granted.

A combination of what I, oranges and pkp said.
I keep telling myself I should give it a try, but other games keep my interest more than SS13 for the time being. Plus, I'm a sentimental old man. I "grew up" on /tg/ and just want back what /tg/ used to be, not some kind of replacement running similar code. So I just complain on the forums with my nostalgia tinted goggles.

This "love it or leave it" stuff that they trot out to distract you from criticising changes you don't like is a tactic of tyrants and I remember An0n3 acting like this as headmin and during his brief time as host because he could not handle criticism. It implies that they're infallible and any problems you could have with their actions are your fault.
