As title states can we narrow down 6 servers that I can have up and running and have active admins on.

As much as the popular vote wants - Caspian will stay for now.

If popular servers are anything to go by, it should be high pop, high ticket 24/7 Noshahr TDM, Metro CQ (no explosives?), and a big maps with all expansions.

Yep only a handful currently on metro servers but its another hugely popular map. Multiple metro 24/7 servers get busy during peak time.

Could also include a mix mode server with voting, that way those populating it can decide what mode they would like to play, this will also cater for modes or maps not included in the other four.

Crane camping should be against server rules imo, noobs get up there via a parachute glitch (I think). Spoils the map.

It's from a spawn beacon, arguably they should spawn on the ground in a map with no air, but it's no glitch.

+1 for mixed mode server

Boys arent playing the GetSome severs cause everything is either 24/7 or TDM.

Mix it with rush,close quarters etc, and not just vanilla maps, every map.

Why? It's not unrealistic. And it's not exactly hard to deal with them.

I'd like the Caspian 24/7 to have a 2-3 map rotation like Caspian>Firestorm>something, just enough change to keep it interesting without mixed mode bollocks.

 The other big maps server hardly ever populates.  Would be interesting to see how a 24/7 Firestorm server changes the population of 24/7 Caspian

Caspian, Firestorm and Kharg are a popular combo

Plenty of people play 24/7 and TDM (not myself necessarily), there are many reasons why people don't play GetSome servers, and having 4 idle is less wasteful than 15.

^ But then it wouldn't be 24/7 Caspian :p

I have some time on the weekend to look at the server setup, so if you guys can ensure all your suggestions are in ASAP I will collate and configure based on consensus.

The 2x64p servers are gone.

Once Osiris sorts his logins again he can remove the 11 servers we have and put up the recommended 5
