To be honest we shouldn't be talking about populated servers here, they are populated because of how crappy you think they are and how cancerous you find them to be at times , don't try to change that, otherwise you'll end up with a pretty dead server, vsh is the concrete exemple of that, the server was populated 24/7, some good choices were made to improve the server and it turns out they were bad for the population, and killed the server, also, we all have to admit that some servers were alive because of some specific regulars, members or staff, vsh was populated thanks to Bone and Hina, jb1 was populated too, I even remember there was a time when I couldn't join the server because it was full, and jb1 was alive thanks to some people, and died because of some others, (not gonna mention names, to avoid creating tension, but we all know what happened there), also one other thing; Staff should learn to be friendly, help others, share knowledge and communicate more, especially with other staff member.

I don't think this would be realistically possible. xG doesn't have a lot of map makers, and I don't think the ones we do have would want to do something as difficult as this. This would take a lot more coding, mapping, and scripting than you think. You'd also have to find a way for each of those "game modes" to have their own restrictions and not overlap with another game modes restrictions. There's nothing stopping you from attempting something like this on your own time, though, I'd do more research to see if other servers have done this type of idea. Unfortunately I don't think a completely new and unique server would be the best idea anyway, keeping core community game-modes will generally keep population as they're already established and often-played.

I have an idea that could potentially help, and would make the majority of players happy, though it would take more work than slapping a .smx file and a map rotation onto a server. We could always code an xG specific gamemode. This way we could have 100% control of what happens in the server. Or if that seems like too much work, we could make a special xG map. If it were to act like our trade servers, just give the map a ton of things to keep players occupied other than spawn camping and trading. I mean, we've recycled a TON of different maps and gamemodes but people will find a way to find exploits, or annoying glitches in 'em, or just generally get bored and stop playing. If we had something that's 100% custom, it could even replace multiple servers at once. Think about it: a map built with a mini Deathrun game built in (can even be 100% automated if done correctly), a large area for people to dick around in like the trade servers, special areas for events to take place, hell you could even use it as an excuse to test new scripts and plugins. This way if we give players enough choices with a single map, then it should practically populate itself. Now I may not have too much map making/coding experience, but this is a good excuse for me to learn. Plus, it could always be a team project. It would get done faster and incorporate more ideas into the map. I just think it'd be a neat experience to have the community come together to make something that could be pretty good. TL;DR: Let's make an xG custom, multi-purpose map, ya dinguses!

As far as actual non meme suggestions, I think we should revert some of the anti rebel changes on jailbreak. Unban the skullcutter for starts. People have a weird emotional connection to it and it's not like it's actually OP despite it being a direct upgrade. I would also suggest thinking about removing or changing lct. I know that rebelling can kill the server at times but in the past a large part of the active regulars consisted of people who almost exclusively rebelled and jb is undoubtedly less popular now. I don't know if this would actually help or harm and jb isn't totally dead but I feel like we should try it.

Bring back jb2. Replace tgh or poketrade idc, we need it back.

I honestly have to agree with @Vector here, don't talk down about the server and then call another server that's got literally the same amount of cancer on it "better." Mainly the most staff I see on Poketrade is @Parasect, @Floppy, sometimes @Bagel and I. Even with us on the server it can get pretty cancerous. I wouldn't go so far to saying it's better than TGH though. @Vexx and @Vixen do really well at keeping that place clean so it's pretty nice there. But, here are my thoughts on the servers- TGH large population and has a normal amount of staff on at all times to keep it clean- keep Pokemon Trading Center has a normal and stable population starting at around 10-11 AM, my time that is ;]. And has staff on mostly going to @Parasect.- keep Deathrun is easy to populate with a group of friends, just our plugin is complete shiet.- I am honestly in between on this one Jailbreak #1 is stable with people like @BreadNubic, Spoopy, @Floppy, @AlmostAllTheStaffThatPlaysTF2.- Keep. Jailbreak #2 has unique maps to almost every other jailbreak server. All the good ones that is ;]. But, has almost no one on at all times. Probably able to be populated over the summer time- Remove until summer?? Zombie Fortress is a really, really fun gamemode that is populated over the summer.- remove until summer? VSH has been getting bursts of population every now and then and is kinda fun for me and all the people I've seen on there.-keep Scripts testing just remove this please it is never used by anyone. Events can have people on there at random times.- in the middle here again TF2ware can be populated over the summer-remove until summer

i just saw this post, hold the fucking phone. You call TGH cancerous but you think pokemon is better? Get the fuck outta here. - Someone who has played on both for a long time.

Well we could always go with the ever-popular Randomizer or x10. As for a personal suggestion, an old community game-mode I played was Huntsman Hell. Here's a video that explains Huntsman Hell pretty well: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTu23_QKvwg

Since as of late I've been playing a bit of Minecraft with a small group of friends of mine, I do quite enjoy Towny as it does have a nice co-op feel to it. I don't really enjoy PvP myself though, I can see why others would like it.

We've waited long enough. Its time for Cops theme. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FPp4qb-phrA
