Best of luck on this.

The player base is fine for the most part we fluctuate between 18 during the dead hours to 60+ during events or just really busy times.
Advertising is done by word of mouth mostly, people tend not to believe add that say we have a lot of quest and working skills. People have been lied to about that kind of stuff a lot.

Tutorial island works just fine. It's 2017, how do you not know how to complete tutorial island?

Also, I think the XP rate for 'old school servers' should never just be double. I'm still grinding for potentially to lose all my progress sadly.

We get new players all the time, people flow in and out. Some people play for a bit and don't like the exp rate, others embrace it and grind. People get bored with the game after a while, it's the cycle of things.
We have been around since 2014, we are not going anywhere.
