Recommended Server

  1. Question: How long does a server remain the recommended server? I need to know.

    It's now SMP5's turn to be recommended server. How long before that changes to another server?

    This is important, I won't say why, because it's not a positive/constructive discussion. Just please let me know how long this will last.

    Thanks.
  2. This is a guess but it is about one to two months. No server really likes being the recommended server but everyone gets their share of the pain. Just soldier on and it will be over soon enough.
  3. I think it's really a random period of time. I do think it should go on a one week rotation or something like that, but I'm not sure.
  4. I don't think it is that long. it's moved through the servers quicker than that...

    I just wonder if there is a set period, or is it random.. I should mail Aikar.

    I'd rather have the longer periods of not being recommended server. So if we have to weather it for longer, so be it.
  5. When Aikar feels that it is time for a new server I guess.

  6. All I can say is, Good thing it isn't smp4 :)

  8. 2 will be soon =P

    But basically I put a server recommended when its numbers are lower, then once it stablizes with more activity then rotate to next lowest.

    2 and 7 are due next.

  9. so if you want it to be quicker.... Make sure the newer players are REALLLY welcomed and stay more, so the server builds up quicker :)
  10. I'm looking forward to it:) More nwe players on smp7 may change my preference from single player to EMC :)
  11. aw &#!$... Time to turn off chat :p
    Bad enough when a 700-800 day player ask how to craft a hopper... Etc.
    I could get used to it... As long as it don't last too long :) (aka more than a month :p)
  12. Arg.. So running to another server for a few weeks isn't going to help. Need to increase numbers, not decrease.

  13. Does looking forward to it changing to smp7 mean I never experienced what it is like to be recommended?
