this game is hostile to casual players and newcomers:
- a single mistake (crashing a fleet or running into a fleetcatch) can ruin your entire round
- if you don't spend xxx h per day in irc, you will be regarded as inactive and exiled around, until you end up in a dead galaxy
- newcomers who try out the game will soon find themselves on the receiving end of incomings, they get bashed and then quit.
- all new suggestions which favor the lower end of the playerbase will be rejected by the expert players who fear running out of targets and/or easy roid "farms"

if this does not change, PA will continue to get less players every round.
