well,..
based on my experience...the only way to gather many players in this server is to make this server a dedicated server....it may cost a little much, but the enjoyment that it brings is unreachable! and also, this server needs a very2x active admins, not just event GMs......(ohh btw, before you choose a GM, let them be a TGM 1st a.k.a Test Game Master, let them do some jobs in the server...not just by being online..but in any way they can lure players to this server!(remember, not in illegal ways) and 1 thing.....choose a good website theme....like websites that are cool in the players eyes..sometimes thats the very 1st thing they choose a server to play...)
well, when you see a server whose online 24/7.....and have some of the things i mentioned above...that makes a player play more with the game...
Voting for the server is a good thing in advertising and introducing a good server.......but the very very best way lure many players is advertising through the words of mouth.... what i mean about this is ..... when a player really2x likes the server hes playing....im very very sure hes going to tell his/her friends to play with them in a certain server!...even if it is not the no. 1 in Xtremetop100 or other sites....
Hope youll love what i wrote....this is just a suggestion....w/c is based from my experience....
See yah guys...
Im still waiting for the server to Online!
