I really wish you elaborated on this a bit. Do you mean you want to take away people's servers?

No no.
Let me just explain what I mean,

There are too many servers for such a small population. The whole "Making your own server" is a great idea and should stay, but should there really be that many classic servers? For example, there are some useless servers such as Delteria and Atlantis who are beyond being finished development, why are they even there?
and so on...

No one even plays alantis or Delteria, so taking them off the classic list wouldnt affect anyone, which means their will be no changes in playercount on the other servers.

Delteria has a pretty awesome dev server

i wouldn't doubt it, but taking the server off of the classic list right now wouldn't change anything. Maybe once delteria dev comes current delteria and they get a playerbase things would be changed

Removing it and readding it would hardly change anything.

But if you take away people's favourite servers, they are not going to start playing on your server, they are just going to quit.

The only way I can see out of the whole having too many playerworlds thing is to give developers something to do without making them do their own server. Which is going entirely against the making people buy playerworlds business model so good luck with that.

That takes away from the idea WaDaFack is suggesting. You basically mean remove Delteria for now, until it's done with the new project?

Leaving it online is hurting nobody, and offers a chance that here and there a player will log on and offer to apply for a development position. Advertising on these forums for when you need staff is not that helpful.

To be honest, i think 'downsizing' graal would be one of the most *****ic choices to be done yet. Can you list some positive and negatives? x.x

This is just a discussion, REMEMBER THAT!
If you dislike this idea, make a post why you hate it or why you like it. Just don't flame Bell, or myself.

You don't only need to state whether you like it or dislike it, maybe you can give your own idea's ETC.

Tell that to all the developers then. Not everyone sees it like that.

It is more of an issue with the entire culture around playerworld development. Mostly playerworld files are only on the actual Graal server, so you can only ever work on anything if you are already a "staff member" with "admin rights", which is just ridiculously stupid.

I think if the population is spread too think it's a problem of quality, not quantity.
