But these forums are definitely dying without moderation

I feel like wilds.io isn't dying. There are plenty of players, and with a few fixes to things like the kick, it'll be doing even better. But yeah, rez is probably going to become increasingly less active, due to the fact that he's now married and expecting a son. If it's wilds.io vs rezoner's family, the answer is, of course, his family. We can't change that.

Rez isn't ignoring this stuff, he's just not seeing it. He just recently got online to ban "beep beep I'm a sheep", but soon after that somebody posted that really inappropriate picture, and rez won't even see that problem until he gets on again. This forum desperately needs moderators that are active enough to be seeing this stuff.

Then, if bows in the arena are still a problem, we'll focus on that. It seems like bows are the most controversial issue in the game right now. Some want them out and some really like them.

Fixing the kick should be the first step. We need to somehow make it easier to kick back arrows, either by just increasing the size of the current kick hotbox or by changing it back to a 360.

We definitely need moderators. But yeah, jashin is right. Rez can appointment his own moderators. Voting for a moderator doesn't make much sense.

We have to remember that rez is married and starting a family. That's incredibly time intensive, and wilds.io is a pretty low priority on his list now. I think that the game will survive without much attention on his part, as long as a couple things like the kick are fixed. But these forums are definitely going to die without moderation. Rez hasn't been on in over a week, and honestly his periods of inactivity are just going to get longer. Without moderation this forum is going to continue falling apart the same way it is right now.

Have you ever used wand? Your calculations are very good aside from the fact that you didn't consider the fact that the wand takes up stamina with each shot. You said 240 projectiles per second, but it's probably closer to 60, because you are limited by the stamina. Most of those projectiles won't hit because of  blocking, kicking, etc, so very little damage will be done. There's also the fact that the wand's special is virtually useless, as opposed to the bow special, which is very good. The wand will only kill someone really quickly if they're low on health, stunned, or frozen. Because of these factors, most of the wilds community considers the wand to be the worst(or one of the worst) weapons.

I feel like directional kicking is good, we just need a bigger hitbox for the kick so that it's not as hard to land it. 

What I'd like to know is what exactly was changed. Rez, what size is the kick hitbox now?
