Why aren't we having as much fun as we used to?

What happened to this?
I feel like a total tool when I even mic mute someone.
I have people I've played for years with, and when I fuck with them, other people are getting pissed in server.
The fuck, do I slap them with 5 minutes? Do I try to play and just sort the bullshit?
We have maybe 6 people on GG at a time if we get that. (12am on) They don't want to stay through grenade level any more, or maybe we'll do two to three games at most. The fuck? Why even have it?
I have so many people telling me that it is not the same as it used to be, and half of them have been here for a year or less...
The fuck happened to the good times if they haven't the slightest clue as to why I even joined or how much fun we used to have? I understand Billy, Inertia, Cleric and the others are gone, but why have we let it go?
I used to have so much fun but the knife teams, snail rushes, meat towers, etc are dead. People cry now.
Sorry if this is just a drunk post, but goddamn. I'm tired of people bitching at the slightest thing, and feeling like we're just there to collect buddies, toss hackers or flay fucktards.
When I joined, I had fun. I'm not.

Any regulars on the server don't give a shit what I do, because they enjoy it none the less. Such as Duba, Bl1nky, ///M, So How U Doin, Smokey and the like.
People have started to care more about their ranks than actually having fun on the server. I'm quite happy to go several rounds just knifing or pistolling (stfu Halcomb I know you're going to bring up that USP thing the other day ¬.¬).
What is most annoying is that people know I'm admin, so as soon as they find a CT at back window when it's about 1:30, they're like; "OMG SLAY. SLAY." When usually that player has already moved.
It just feels like the community has changed to hate any sign of variety (now known as admin abuse) in the server, and there are only a few players left that still enjoy the game even if they're stacked in projector for a tower of power, or butt rushing CTs with only Glocks to save them.
Don't get me started on Gungame. I NEVER see the game full, nor to I see it ever in use unless myself, Shorty or Halcomb kick it off (which I don't mind). On rare occasions we get a large group of people playing and it's a lot of fun. I don't really know how to fix this to be honest, most people just enjoy Office more than Gungame.
Any ideas on how to fix this? :/

If you want retention, some things need to change, albeit even if its little...

People have their own thing to do. Honestly, Counter Strike:Source has gotten extremely boring.
I mean seriously, I have over 2000+ hours on it, and the only reason I played most of the time is because Chibi
or my old old friend Kingdom, if any of you guys remember him, plays.
Then there are also just weird BoSS members that pop outta no where with the tags on
and I don't even see them introduced on forums >.< . Meh. And just new admins popping out of no where.
The most fun was when GG was full of regs and admins who don't care about score. The admin using their power
and blinding, freezing, beaconing, etc. those other players :) (You know what I'm talkin about)
And when a few admins try to get the server to be fun there are obviously other players who disapprove
and say Admin Abuse! Then they would start to bitch at the admin and obviously get themselves banned
then they would have to hop onto the forums and bitch some more or so called "apologize". But I really doubt they're sincere.
But yea, It's just not as fun as it used to be. :(

I simply hate the new try-hard or cry-hard crowd we've been amassing. I remember when team stacking and bitching about rank was hitting a high and Shadow reset the server's stats. Not once but twice in a week. The server was about having fun and doing your goddamn job in game. I shouldn't have to wait to 0:30 for a CT to appear when there aren't even any fucking T's near spawn or the hostages. So I slay them, then I have to explain not only to him, but the other three fucking twats who thought he was doing a fucking good job holding up the goddamn server.
Or when we play our little games and someone mentions to me how many ranks he lost having fun with us. What the fuck is that? Don't fucking have fun with us then you fucking twats, we didn't ask you to fucking enjoy our goddamn server. We joined BoSS because we had fun here, we didn't because there was a fucking counter on our goddamn KDR.

Should we (gasp) re-set the ranking system? There, I have said the unspeakable..
I will make more of an effort to keep it fun. I hope you have your para because I have a hostage_entity with your name on it.
Here's a fun idea.. years ago there was a great boss tradition where a group of us would all change our names to something random and then go raid other peoples servers. Stoned would go all recon and find a server with votekick and voteban enabled. we would then invade the server, voteban the admins and everyone else off, all with perfect vent co-ordination. Thats a short summary of what actually happened but my god you never laughed so hard in your life.

ok someone find a server with votekick/ voteban on it.. and with people who seem douchy.. we'll meet up sunday afternoon at 4:20pm and commence to raid said server.. we need at least 10 to effectively take over someone else's server..
Ok I will be there. Sounds like fun.
