This is why i think Doomsday is pretty successful, most people like it and rate it as one of their favorite playerworlds, and has one of the higher playercounts (our peak at 7-10 pm eastern american time is about 45 give or take 10)....its all our staff.

Seriously I love the staff who work at DD. Sure we have our problems with staff, but its never serious, and most times we can work it out rather quickly and without anyone quitting or getting fired. Our high staff is amazing. Tifa is a GREAT manager, she works hard, loves the server, is extremely dedicated, and is one of the kindest and gentlest people you'll ever meat. Roscket, our new co-manager, is extremely dedicated and hard working. I'm the admin, sort of the GM (3rd in command type) and I like to think im very dedicated. Our department admins are great at their skill, and also very dedicated to keeping their staff in line and active, and our low level staff guys are just stupendous and very talented.

I think the key to having a great PW is having great staff. If you can find a good staff, you can succeed in the PW world.

I'm just using DD as an example, but I know of other servers with good staff systems, and those are almost always the successful ones. Having too many PW's can cause this to degrade, causing the good staff to spread out and disallowing servers to succeed.
