Nobody is really activate and Starbound isn't really that great at the moment. When the time is right it'll be back, but the game just doesn't live up to expectations yet. Looking back to it all I think I was a shitty admin. It's not quite dead yet, just on life support.
'Tis a shame that most of us ain't here as well, probably getting on with life and such. Also these new forum rules are weird. I can't change my signature because of this - "Signature Rules: Before you can modify your signature, you must have passed the following conditions: The number of posts you have created must exceed: 2 (Yours: 0) The number of Likes you've received must exceed: 1 (Yours: 181) The Likeost Ratio must exceed: 0% (Yours: 0%) The number of days you have been registered must exceed: 1 (Yours: 709)"
That is an odd rule... so you need to spam 2 posts? Well, guess that is what the introduction subforum is for.
