add numbers and exicement to server!

[KONG]

this is just a though:

firstly cos lr was realished too early with no work done on it, it attaraced a cetain no. of peeps and now bout 1/2 have left
i know pen been busy making sever more lr friendly and balenced and so far hes doing a standup job! unfortunatly the user count is still only round 20 or so =( the obvious solution wud be to wipe server and start fresh cos now files are suited to lr more ppl wud stay.
problem with this is 2 monthos of work wud be lost and u would loose most of lr loyals

im making this thread for ideas from peeps from mr and hr to suggest ideas that might make them want to play server more (ideas from lr player r welcome too)

heres my 1st:

increase no. of wt horns that drop, this may allow a grp of mates to create a guild and take sw within a couple of weeks of starting server and given new sw tele powers this wud be worth it!!

A wipe? Don't be silly. Sick to death of servers just randomly wiping. Lost months worth of work when HR wiped now LR aswell? No thanks. It's not as if the server is massively imbalanced, just need some advertising. Maybe even stick a thread on LOMCN (But then again i don't think they support MR cos of the donations)

yeh I dont think a wipe is a good idea people will come in time I have noticed the numbers go up a bit the past 2 weeks, maybe try put new hunting areas in (just a thought)

Events always attract people, since Penny started working on the server and Ares ran that event (which I missed () we've had the usercount on the rise.
Maybe another great day long event, on a day other than a Saturday... would be a good way of grabbing a few more people!

Well I hear from Lone that a Mir MiniOlympics may be coming soon!

Seems an event may be happening which will allow players to accumulate points with Gold, Silver and Bronze medals for individual and team event winners. A league table on the forums will show who is has accumulated most medals. I believe the medals can be traded for prizes after the event.

Personally I think the idea of a 60 second sycronised pvp event is dumbing down Mir but it seems to be the way the world is heading :s

Events may include
- relay races
- sprints
- long distance running
- football
- group mob kills against the clock where no team member must die
- treasure hunts

and that sort of stuff. More information when it becomes available but Lone is such a busy boy and is in great demand.

Not sure yet how many days it will run for or which events he will arrnage but the aim as always will be to allow the maximum numbers of existing players to participate and to encourage new players to have some fun as some events will only be open to lower levels

I think the best way to increase server population is to ronseal it. i.e do what it says on the tin, this server is advertised as being more friendly and group orientated than HR, thats its USP - Unique Selling Point, so I dont give a flying who is right or wrong, smart or dumb, it doesnt matter what the kong says, or what the blood says - we need to act like a bunch of people who enjoy playing mir, rather than petty kids who are fighting over marbles. If that makes no sense and isnt fluently punctuated its probably because I've been drinking since midday and am pissed as a fart.

People may be put off joining because there are already lvl 50's. But perhaps serveral npcs 4 different lvls, that allow certain exp boosts and free basic kit 2 get all n00bs going.

As well as someone already said, events!
