Whats YOUR ideal server?

How about a De-Leveling server, Start at 40 and you need to level to 0, it gets quicker and quicker but the risk of being killed gets higher and higher
Gave me an idea for a event weekend
Have to say though mir is dying, recent servers have been ****.
Theres a finite number of players, which is only decreasing not increasing over time. You cant advertise private servers, even if you do, whats someone gonna pick, a flashy game like L2 or Aion or this.
Im playing Aion, its nice to have 2k+ users online with you. Not just a server with 10 people on.

people would just stay max level inorder to kill harder bosses getting better gear and pking other people even easier.
There is enough players for mir but only for 1 server imo, you got gamepot usa, and the few that are split between private servers if everyone played on the same server it would be good. But yeh mir is dieing slowly but if everyone just played the same server like usa as i wouldn't really recommend any private mir server (they all have there issues) we could prolong the life of mir that bit longer :P won't happen though, people say usa is crap but what private server is better? i think the real excuse is your bored of mir.
The fact that USA Mir has bots running around left right and center, is the real excuse. Oh, and did I mention **** all gets done? No? Oh. Well **** all gets done.
Combine a decent server with a staff team who actually care about other people, and you have a good server who'm everyone will play.
That's just the problem though. Nobody is the same. There are different servers for this very reason... High rate, low rate, whatever. Everyone prefers their own type of "Mir", Private servers are the cause for this, and, seeing as official is far worse, we're stuck with private. Which is fine, if you enjoy a usercount of about 50 people.
Cba to list what would make an ideal server for me tbh, it's not hard to please me. To keep me interested for over a year though, now, there's a challenge.
ooo can i have a go?? :P
1. a big monster that has a big stick
2. when the big monster dies he drops his big stick on the floor?
3. when you pick up the stick, you find out it has the power of UbEr PwNaGe???
4. you can go around with your uber stick killing people for eternity gathering UbEr berries and UbEr coconuts?
that would interest you for over a year to be honest. :P would take alot less to interest me!
one thing i haven't seen any servers do is create their own mob / armours / weapons / tiles / objects, and i don't mean recoloured crap.
nothing about private servers is unique its all generic, from server to server, the same old weapons / armours / mobs etc.
Euro was fun because when they added new stuff, it was "new" (unseen before).
the problem you face with the current server files is there is no wil protection.
in some ways this is good in others this is bad. If you spent hours creating a mob for your server, some nab would come along and steal it claiming they "found it first"
thus removing the unique aspects of your server.

not many if any ppl around have the time or knowage to sit down and make its own mobs/weapon/armours.
mobs would be easy but things like making armours its not just making for std 2.3 when you got sin tigers fishing humup them things add alot of images to the wils
Ok, heres what I like.
STart at level1... or even something like 10.
Euro style in a way... Same towns, same caves, same mobs, same old euro items, and the euro bosses still mean something, wether it be killing ET to get your self a Gaxe! WT for lower kit, ZT for higher kit etc... But a slight chance of finding a decent item for your level off normal mobs... Say been level 25 and a Tong droping you a dring (Not a lot, obv) thats always nice... No paras dropping off a AxeSkeleton though... lol
Some new items for all levels, caves for all levels just to give more options to level and obv new bosses for variety.
Gold - Not hard to gain, but not stupidly easy that it means fk all. Nice to sell stuff for 1bill, rather than people just using 101 items to buy something off you.
EXP - Nice steady levelling rate, not too fast but not stupidly slow. Nice achievement when you hit 40/50... Not just hit 50 and think... Well time to go for 60 and so on.
Also no rebirth... Pointless system imo.
Commands like @town are always a good feature... Thats all I really use.
Donations: Dont mind donations, but when people donate or kit/levells it kills the server for me... And these stupid EXP Necklaces that people have...
Pet system: SHouldnt be a pet system. Taos have thier pets, Wizzies have their pets normal way... Thats how it should stay.
Thats it from me.

Wooo for you, except I'd add would need to be fast enough leveling to keep most people interested, not like 500 zombies from 19-20, perhaps 80 or 100 zombies lol and there would need to be some custom kit ;p)

This x2.... I also would like to see guild hunting being used to its full potential, Ahh the days
My ideal server:
Medium rate. Abundance of quests, leveling areas and PVP systems. Unique features. GM to player ratio of about 1:50. Donation system where players can donate towards server maintenance costs but not for gold/items/experience or any form of personal in-game benefit. If you truly like the server you can donate a few pounds and expect nothing in return. No pets. If you want a pet create a wizard/taoist. Random events. People like the unexpected. Unscheduled events => mayhem => fights => fun!
Keep it simple. Many people have attempted to create complex in-game features over the years but the simple alternatives are often more effective.
Good luck.
