I agree with Fenix, Googi, and Tig on these points. I believe theres a lack of content, but also a lack of advertisement in the market.

I agree with tig, preserving the community is important. There are only a limited amount of certain "rare items" in this game, and MOST of them have died with old players from the past. As more people quit with their items, the less items there are on graal. Making items even rarer causing there value to rise. This process results in the rich becoming richer, and the poor becoming poorer. Making the poor eventually give up and quit, and repeating the cycle. The items that STILL ARE here should be preserved. We are already seeing the effects of this. Items used to be priced in "diamonds". But now they are being priced in "RoW's", that's how devastating the effect has been.

But I do agree with Googi. Updating new items and new content isn't the only thing that needs to be done to revive this server. There needs to be more marketing and advertisement. I'm not sure of Stefans financial situation, but it doesnt take a brainer to understand that the more money the game makes, the more advertisement he will be able to do. A good idea might be to adapt into Maple Story's idea's. Some people will dish out cash just to "look good", or whatever. Obviously the items shouldnt have stats, but just a certain look or whatever. Anyways, the more money he makes the more advertising he can do, which results in a higher player count.

But obviously there is alot of work to be done. There should be more levels, and dungeons. New monsters for higher levels. Maybe even making a greater variety of weapons and armour droppable. I dont know, I'm just saying. There's definetely a lack of content. Theres only so many Lord spots, you know? Sure everything is fine for the current playercount. But if we DO reach a higher playercount, the content is definetely too short. I don't know.. that's what I have to say.

I do feel Tig would be an excellent representetive for an Admin. But it's going to take more than one person to help revive a server. There should be numerous positions that should be given out to qualified, active players. And I feel that Tig would be a great start to a revival.
