Higher Population Cap

[Jeaneh]

Yeah I was thinking a second server also if more population wasn't a choice. PB has become a very popular server of this community. Oh and I always find a way into PB I just play mini-games until another slot is open. I also might donate over the summer.

Adding slots causes the server to crash whilst playing

Well scratch the idea of the population cap just switch it to two servers. Why not two servers at 24? Maybe have the second one with some other type of prison break or something. When I first started playing here I thought I remembered two PB servers.

We used to have 2 PB servers, Mutiny and Uprising. And no matter what happened, one of them would fill up, and the other would never break 10 players, It was very rare that both were full, and we ended up trying many different things to keep them popular.

 

I miss Uprising, I would love for it to come back, but it never is going to. Look at it from the point of view of the higher ups in SG. Pb causes the most player complaints, and results in the most bans, and the most rule QQ. When we had 2 servers, we couldnt keep both full, and we were just sitting there with 2 half full servers, with double the amount of complaints and issues of just 1.

 

Darth linked the thread from a few months ago asking for Uprising to come back, and even with all the support from a lot of members, regulars, supporters, apprentices, and admins, it was still ignored, and then shot down.

 

Just be happy that we have 1 pb server that is full a fair amount of the time.

Servers don't grow on trees, yes I see your donation part.

Maybe not a regular jb, like maybe a rpg or warcraft jb and maybe make less slots? Just an idea...

You are probably right. That is the funny thing though because it seems like the server is always 24/24 and admins always have to tell specs to join a team or be kicked. I don't really see that too often in the other servers. You would think that the PB population is quite large. I think that the populations may shift a little over time too which I think PB is larger than it used to be.

 

I can see why the admins and higher-ups wouldn't want this. Their is a ton of complaints just in the server alone now trying to fight off two servers of idiots. That could be annoying.

 

Good points.
