    I coded this server for 2 months now and the goal was to get an

    100% 2006 PK Server Only With A Decent Eco

    Like Elvemages time.

    Yet I don't have any players

    I saw over 30 people supported me I don't understand why im not getting any of them though what am I doing wrong?

    I listen to all my player suggestions and complete them It's 24/7 Decent Combat And Even Unique PK Rewards For Each Kill, Plus Not To Mention, Holiday Events And Double PK Point Weekends What am I doing wrong?


    I advertised on youtube, Rune-Server, Mopar, RuneLocus, RSPS-Coding And Sythe

    I also encourage my players to vote every day I even have a nice community for them

    Your doing a bunch of minor updates everyday, instead of working on a big update and update weekly, you have to stand out to get a lot of players...this can be done by :

    -Minigames
    -Skills
    -Pvp combat
    -Bosses


    Also I noticed this :

    After 4 Hours Of Redoing Prices, Prices Now Nearly Match Runescape's (Did Not Use A Price Dump)

    A simply program can execute that for you in few seconds.

    100% 2006 PK Server Only With A Decent Eco

    There's your problem, do not say it's 100% when it's not really 100%.

    + Making old school servers are plain silly, Jagex has corrupted the players minds and when they look for a private server they're expecting all the crap jagex has. Why? Because they maybe cannot afford the good items that they want on RuneScape and look for a private server that has the item that is easier to get. Or they either suck at RuneScape and want to play something like it mainly because they want something easier to play.


    + Old school servers will have players asking "Is there torva" & when you say no, good bye to that player.
