    What would you want in a good private server?

    This is just 100% curiosity, I'm just wondering what features you would want to see in a server to be able to call it good, and keep playing it, do you like high rates/mid rates/low rates, etc.

    No flaming please

    I like an owner that knows what he's doing. Somebody with years of experience, business tactics, expert coding knowledge and a total lack of bias and corruption. Someone that doesn't get overwhelmed by his/her job, or rages at his/her players. Somebody that's mature on their server and shows a good example of what a professional server owner should be.

    A server that fixed the things flyff lacks in. Quest, implent of their story, balanced equip, more things to do eaqrly lvled so it wont just be grind etc.

    And at last, somethings that makes you feel proud of being max lvled, having good equip or cs set. If everyone runs around at max lvl with the same cs set etc then it aint fun. it should be a mix of things.

    I released a system that makes the server owner able to set questing exp.
    No one used this system to make questing more popular.
    I used it on my own server they didn't do any quest just grinding since that goes faster in any private server anyway.
    The rates are too high the one that wants a low rated server are better off playing the official servers.Since low rated private server aren't Popular enough. I even implanted the old pk system no one liked too pk or bounty hunt. (Might be that the server wasn't popular anymore)

    Same as running v5 files too few people want to play it. The ones that wants to play are the ones know the good fly for fun.

    Ohh yea for the ones that keep saying that releases here are from other forums.
    Those are German forums Ragezone is one of the best English Mmorpg development forum.

    I don't want this section too be closed down -.- don't talk MentaL into doing so...

    True, I'm one of those who want a low rated server but higher than eflyff.
    I remember the good old iflyff, 65 45 125. Best rates ever. Those rates and a normal max level cap + question would be fun :3
    Well thats me, sadly barley anyone agree with me. I kinda hope the same thing that happend with maplestory servers will happend here.

    Oh and i'm glad to hear about that system, defently going to check it out. will be needed for the server idea i got. been away from developing way too long x3

    There are some things that have to be improved in some cases because global was failed.

    Personally, I like servers where the staff (GM's and such) are more active in the community, and actually enjoy helping players and hosting events.

    2 words:

    Good management.

    --

    If I see that, I'll be more then willing to play. For one simple reason, to support professional staff. Customs, balance and such is just a bonus.

    I wouldn't say that, most private servers that wind up getting lots and lots of players, don't have the nicest staff members, it's about having staff who are at a mature enough age where they can do what they need to do, resolve conflicts, all that, but also not abuse their authority, or look at it as just a game.

    That's kind of what i men't with it's a basic thing. Good Staff is something that every server MUST have. If they don't then it can't be counted as a server in my opinion. Then it's just a bunch of kids playing around and thought they could make money on it.

    Not necessarily, there are some servers who have staff members who I wouldn't consider to be "kids playing around" but at the same time, they're not the most pleasant to be around. They're professional, but they're too much about the making money part and don't care enough about the community to try to be a part of it
