Why are inactive playerworlds on classic list?

It were going down, playercount were low at certain times but we used to have a playercount up to 30-35 people at certain times,
which actually is better THEN most of the servers, also it had it times when there were 0 people on SL and 20 people on UN.

That James need to put down from management, is the dumbest thing i've heard, it doesn't get better because someone else takes over, without James SL would have been dead a long time ago, because at a certain time no one in high management had the interest to take over the responsibility. James knows what he's doing, "ir13" or whatever your nick is, perhaps you should get some experience in management skills and development skills, ideas etc etc before you even lay a comment about it,
I highly doubt that you can do anything, besides hosting event and saying warpto, no offence really.

Other then that, no problem that SL is put down at the moment, at least I didn't read all posts about the whining in here, I should consider myself lucky because most of the pathetic posts came from people who don't know how to upload levels.

30 players on a classic server isn't impressive, seeing that private servers which r gold/vip only hit... 50+?

actually with today's graal count youd be surprised to see thirty people on the same server at the same time . and dont give me no bs about how they excede that number couse yes they do , for like the four hour's kids arnt in school or their bed . and for the rest of the day , surprise hardly anyone is on . now ive noticed a few thing's looking back throu this post . for one infernix , you said something about how it looked the last time you were on sl but really how long have you held a job at sl ? a few week's to a day . the last time i hired you it wasnt even a week and you were missing . chris you said something about sl holding a player count of fifty to sixty and then dropped off , i hate to disagree with you but when i came to sl the player count was 80 to 100 . and some times over a hundred . it's easy sit back and complain all the time , but less easyer then that is to just walk away and go to another server . you people are starting to make me sick , instead of stepping up and doing something about it youd all rather just sit back , complain and publically blame the server's failure on it's staff . when in all actaullaty if it wasnt for these staff your blameing the server would be long gone with no hope of being finished , seen again or even remmber except for the few nerd's that wish to live in the past . what happened in sl's past in it's past , we need to start looking forward and not back . everyone want's to talk about what happened on sl back then , well if your that conserned build yourself's a time machine and go live in the past forever . the rest of us that are still determinded to do this will be moving forward . and it dont matter if sl does get shut down . we will buy another server and push forward . and the more you all sit here and bash the server publically just give us that extra drive . we will do this just despite you people . dont matter what you people think , or what you want , sl will be back .

You are quite the funny man that pms EVERYONE about your fun server that gives out free "guns and much more",
will you PLEASE stop pming every person on every server to come and join your server, becuase frankly if I want to join your server, I JOIN IT.

Now this didn't have anything to do with your post, this doesn't have anything to do with your post either:
I would never want to play on a modern server which got every single idea from era because they are too lazy to actually think of something themselves, same tilesetstyle, the guns etc etc etc,

so there, now please stop advertising your server.

If you wanna talk about impressive playerscounts we should perhaps go back in time, way back, when classic had 500 players?
500 people thats like 2x as much at american timezones. Then you had the ghost mode, which in fact is a BIG factor why all this happened,
I think you don't know what ghostmode was, I will explain for you what ghostmode is:
At a special playercount the graalserver couldn't take in more players, so you had to sit and wait as a ghost untill some player left, usually it said like
-300 players left untill you can logon- I mean it was pointless then ofcourse,

some people decided to whine over a FREE game and got it p2p, at least we dont have to wait in ghostmode,
but we lost about 1000 players due to this.

Who to blaim really? The players that cried all day not knowing what were going to happen, I actually remember the forumpost there Unixmad announced that you would have to pay for the game,
people said "good job" "yay! we have to pay!", I guess alot of people changed their minds.

I'm still struggling to understand the point in removing a server that is developing from the server list. If they are removed from the classic tab, people forget about the server, and when it comes back up, it gets the same sypnosis as Bomy Lands had.

If you leave Delteria up, people will see that it has a semi-low playercount at times, but then will also notice when the playercount raises due to the new overworld. If it just shows up out of nowhere again, people will assume it will be another one of those servers that will be popular for a week and then fall right back down, which could very well happen.

I just don't understand what your rush is to remove half of the servers from the classic tab. They have a lower playercount than they previously did, but they have also been around for a long enough time that they should recieve the respect from the globals to remain up during their rebuilding time.

While yes, I would understand the want to remove it from the classic tab, as it HAS been dead for a year or so now, I don't believe it will leave a positive influence in the long run. If it was constantly at 0, and people didn't even log on to visit tourneys, etc., then I'd say remove it. However I have noticed several times logging in that it does often have a playercount in the double digits, which means that enough people do care about it.

Those are my thoughts on the situation. I am in no way a Delteria representative, nor do I even work for the server. Those are just my feelings towards the matter.
