Getting people to play on your server takes a little time for people to get to know it exists. A little patience, let others spread their word about it and if everything is lag free and fun, well as they say..."build it and they will come."

It might help if you do some small advertising on here. System specks, total user count, any "special" considerations, IP ADDRESS and port if you forced it. You know just the routine info for starters.

Well Dirknar. My server started up last May. But it didn't really start getting players until September. It wasn't until after Elite closed at the end of November that Boston came into it's own with a solid community of players and we haven't looked back since. Stinger knows exactly what he's talking about when he says it takes patience. He was the co-sysadmin of one of the most popular FL servers, Elite.
