What would you rather see?

A small-type server with alot to do, or a HUGE server where everything is far and there is a lot to do? I just want an opinion here

I'd rather see a small server where theres a lot to do. Because really, do you want to spend 15 minutes running all over the server just to play an event? It's time consuming and inconsistent. I'd rather have everything near my expense, without having to run across the entire server. People get to there destination without wasting time.

For a normal server, small.

For an RP server, large.

It would probably depend on what was being planned for the server. They both work, I guess.

Small maps are nice, but you run out of room quickly and everything must be planned very carefully. Not a lot of freedom.

Large maps are nice, but the shear size of some can be overwhelming in the development aspect. However, there's a lot to fill and things can be kind of sporadic and seemingly random. Plus it gives a real sense of adventure since you're not sure what will come up next and things won't feel so cramped or crowded in.

Well, if you're talking about a RP server, then yeah, they would need as much space as possible to fit everything they need into the map and possibly more space for future developments. It's just that some people like big, open spaces and some people like everything close and easily accessable. I'm sure you can do the same with big servers if you plan it out correctly.

A larger server is also good if you plan on allowing lots of playerhouses

A large server is better in my opinion.

Finish it
?

it was going to go online as a playerworld that wasn't OMG LOOK AT MAP IT IS ALL THERE. I was going to make things to replace the trees (towns, etc) later on and introduce them through role playing events such as excavation or something of the sort.
