[Tut]How to make your server succesful

Hey Guys!

I just wanted to make this guide for the newbies with pservers and try to help them

First of all Im going to give you some tips of mine:

1. If you want your server to be popular sign up on xtremtop100, and other sites like that
2. Recruite a good team, Noob GMs= Complete Failure, so dont pick noob GMs, and recruite a FULL team(forum mod, coder etc)
3. Start voting even before your server makes its opening, ask your team to vote too
4. Getting help from other server owners = Good Idea, but dont annoy them like hell, maybe two questions a day :D unless he/she is really nice
5. Making everything ready before the server opens will be helpful(like banners, rates, forum etc)
6. If you can get a dedicated server then you are in luck
7. Do not make it Hamachi, a bunch of people dont like hamachi, there are lots of guides on RageZone about making your server off hamachi
8. Take your time customizing it, it will be worth the time
9. Dont just take a repack and DONE!!
10. Dont choose a crappy repack, choose a repack that defines your server best, or just choose a clean rev

After Opening Your Server Tips:

1. Get a forum, i suggest vBulletin(it may cost some money but u could add you ads to pay it off)
2. Get A Web Hoster
3. Dont Keep a "fast growing community" when you only get max 10 acc per day, that means dont say BS
4.Change scripts for NPC, Ex Im Host The PCMaple PQ Change it to your pservers name
5.If you use someone's CMS change the banner or atleast at the name of you pserver on it :D
6. Have Fun events specially on new servers, to make them earn to event you could ask them to vote, Ex If we get 100 votes we'll have NX Event
7.Make an official guild for server, so people could contact GMs easier
8.Make Rules, Include GM Rules too
9.Make an AD when your server is fully edited, everything needed s done
10. Dont make wacky rates, like 1mil :\
11. Do something Special for mistake, like if you had an acc wipe, and not stuff like GM hats

Mention one repack that isn't 'crappy'. Right, they're all. All repackers are copy pasters nowadays.
