is Hive dying?

[StoPCampinGn00b]

Soon, there will be large activity here when its summer. It's mostly that students such as me don't find time on going here because we are troubled not only in Social but also in School life.

But I don't blame school for this.

By summer, you are describing which months in your area? Me, June-Aug I would review maps everyday

if only school was Hive, I'd do my HW

 

[Daffa]

okay, I'm sorry. I will stop joking arround.

There's no big problem with jokes, as long it's not getting too far, actually, I meant the thing posted by Chobibo below :

I think Daffa meant to stop arguing, there's nothing wrong with joking. I apologize too, since I started the argument.

if only school was Hve, I'd do my HW

I will do all of my Exercises and Homework if Hive is a school.

Summer here in our country, Philippines is by month of March to May.

You know, Hive is not Dying, It's just a bit busy due to personal stuff or the activities of the users here and There is NO WAY That this website will die.

We've lowered to 6,300 active users right now from over 7,000 two months ago. It's a usual trend, but it seems to get worse year after year.

Google Trends seems to confirm an «is dying» theory. Although, the curve's average does stabilize in the last 2 years.

For me, I think Hive 2 has the potential to bring SOME activity back, at least if the site makes use of its potentialities, but the one I'm thinking of in particular gets farther from being a solution the more time passes.

Glad to see it peaked when I was around

The hive needs new moddable games to mod lol.

 

[takakenji]

the ammount of hive dying threads is beginning to become worst than the amount of warcraft 4 threads

 

[chobibo]

I hope it goes supernova.

 

[Ralle]

the ammount of hive dying threads is beginning to become worst than the amount of warcraft 4 threads

Perhaps that is what will keep the site active

 

[nhocklanhox6]

No live no die, and more more people don't know this site, i think they will found it soon.

 

[StoPCampinGn00b]

That is why when I see any modder, new friend, or anyone interested in a map on battle.net, I invite them over to Hive Workshop. Long live THW. Long live Ralle.

I put Ralle on my resume. I'm in business class.

 

[Vinz]

It slowly is, like entropy.

//Anyways on topic, no. Warcraft 3 is dying.. It's only up to Starcraft 2 or the ever-so-loyal members of the Hive to make it active once again.

 

[chobibo]

Or if they decide to make a new expansion to wc3, with engine updates and additional content, yeah that would be great. But that's not gonna happen.

 

[Vinz]

^They should have made it in 2006, and put less effort to WoW(or actually just have a fucking bigger team. You know how it enrages me that they refuse to recruit some bitches to do Warcraft 4).

 

[Deleted member 219079]

Or if they decide to make WC4... they have to, or else the saga I grew up with meant nothing... else than WoW, aka total bs.

 

[chobibo]

It's easier to milk cows with WoW's game design, unlike WCIII's. Moo.
@jondrean: I bet that's going to be an MMORPG too...

 

[BLazeKraze]

This site won't die, because there's many active users here including me too .
I always look for new post , maps etc .

 

[Rheiko]

i'm a loyal member, i'll stay here forever

 

[Vinz]

^You sure?

 

[EmoBrother]

Hive won't die so easily because it keep updating with the new things, giving the best surprise for the members

 

[RED BARON]

Perhaps that is what will keep the site active

Haha, damn thats a good one and it is true - The only Wc3 site I've seen die just went inactive and out of existence, none even discussed that if/or that it was dying.

 

[Rheiko]

^You sure?

sure.. i'll always here.. my account here

 

[chobibo]

^You sure?

 

[Rheiko]

yes, unless the site and all of its accounts are removed..
then i'm not here anymore

 

[Deleted member 219079]

So... Hive is not dying, it'll die if it keeps focusing on wc3. Why are you guys discussing on "will hive die?"

Edit: Oh my god, Rheiko, why you gave me reputation points for such a worthless post like this D

Edit2: Wait, it's kind of cool, me too...

Edit3: Feeling such a sl*t now. I like it ^^

 

[T. D. W.]

I'm here for a long time, at least till i start the real programming, like when i know it well
But for the question:
As said before, more users are coming even that some users are also going away...
So not yet, it i not dying atm
and Ralle
Is there are numbers for Hive 2? like when will it be finished or the % of completion?

 

[jonhysone]

Yes hive is dying

 

[Xonok]

Yes hive is dying

We all are. There's still plenty of time for most of us though.

 

[chobibo]

Yep, me too.

 

[Ralle]

Okay guys.This discussion is getting useless. Please only post anymore if there is any value in posting.

 

[I_am_Death]

hive's quiet, cuz now is school day, not summer dude
___
and seem like this thread should close, now

 

[T. D. W.]

Yes this is a good point

 

[KuWe]

Would be awesome to see the Hive focusing more on SC2 since lately I've been trying to learn the intricacies of the Galaxy Editor mainly through reading tutorials in SC2Mapster since there are not many (big enough) SC2 modding sites around.

 

[chobibo]

I would, if my hardware permits me to play sc2, but it doesn't.

 

[Rheiko]

i would if my laptop could handle SC2, but it couldn't

 

[Kazeon]

ralle is right, it's enough for the discussion

 

[Kyrbi0]

Yeah really; and they didn't even bother waiting for me to get back to try & save it. :<

 

[Marshmalo]

Considering theres still regularly over 200 people viewing the map developments forum I would say not.

Also someone asked this same question back in 2011... zzzz

 

[Chaosy]

I think the hive is dying. I mean it wont get more popular since wc3 gets more and more outdated. This however doesnt mean it's completely dead now, it will still take years before it can happen I think.

I will likely hand around for a long while even if I dont mod anymore.

 

[chobibo]

Unless someone writes an open source engine for warcraft III (I don't think someone would), or Blizzard releases the source (which will never happen).

 

[Chaosy]

or if a new moddable game comes out.

MindWorX is working on something special

 

[chobibo]

Okay, I'll be waiting hehe

 

[Kazeon]

guys, please, stop posting. Ralle has warned you. hive is not dying that's the conclusion, nothing else need to be discussed.

 

[chobibo]

Yeah, we know, but he also said it's okay if it's something important, and TriggerHappy's post is important. It might breathe new life to modding if the guy (MindworX) decides to share what he's doing making.

Yeah, else I would have just posted has done made.
EDIT: Damn, my English is breaking apart.

 

[RED BARON]

Could a mod just close this thread please? It can always be re-opened should the topic of discussion ever come close to happen.
