To some extent you can measure a server's player growth by the amount of Graal###### accounts online, both Era and Zodiac have a fairly healthy amount of them. While UN has very little which leads me to believe that they aren't attracting any new players (and have a **** load of staff).

The amount of decent (uninterrupted) trial play time you can actually have on Zodiac and Era have increased dramatically with the removal of Observer Mode, and to some extent can be credited to the recent jump in the global PC playercount. Classic iPhone players do find their way on to the PC, so suggesting that they need to advertise more on the iPhone is rather pointless.

Community names in them self are not bad at all, the continued lack of support for them however is. The flaws of community names that players describe can easily be hidden and support added for it so it feels seamless.

Lifetime subscription also doesn't need to be re-added back either, Graal would be better off with a trial experience that doesn't completely castrate you like Observer Mode does and lower Gold subscription costs would also help as well.

Nothing can be done to return the community back to what it was years ago though, which is more so an adapt or move on decision that needs to be made individually.
