about 33% Yes
about 33% I don't care
about 33% No

That's interesting.  I thought it was gonna be like

2% Yes
48% I don't care
50% No

Those dedicated servers are still up high, but they seem to be falling down now.

No, it's not a tie. "I don't care" is in the lead, followed by "No"

Edited it.  Yeah.  I don't care wins.

Blockland is still great.

I just hope one day people will come to their senses and chill out with the family rps and school rps.
Not that I hate them, but in all seriousness. They are getting really annoying, with so many people hosting them at once.

However, every dedicated server crashes sooner or later, and it's often half a day before the host finds out and puts it back up. There's your time to shine.

The thing people like about dedicated servers is, they can come and go as their schedule suits them, so a host who lives in Australia, for example, can still make a good server available for players in America and Europe.

Every dedicated server I have seen has needed some work. There is one server that I have seen that was capable of true epicness, and that server belonged to Tomtom (aka Gambsy). Glass's server is half-assed and I usually play it because there's nothing better to do. the other TDMs don't have enough players due to the fact that players don't join TDMs that don't have enough players. So the problem is ironically self-causing.

What it takes is getting enough people on initially. After you get the first few semi-regulars, the server will be more populated and others will start heading over. Unfortunately, unless you yourself can procure some method of 24/7-ness, your regulars won't be too regular due to fluctuating schedules.

Me, I got the ideas. I've got about ten server ideas that have never been done before. The problem is, each one is missing one crucial mod feature that it would require to function properly, and nobody will make the damn things for me, so I sit in obscurity on single-player servers doing my own little thing. It sucks, I know how you feel. The most people that have ever been on my server at once was four, and that was cause I was hosting for someone else who had bad internet. But I'm working... working and waiting.

I hosted my Space Jail Escape at 11:00 PM or something like that, it wasn't dedi, but it still got about 24 players.

I think dedicated servers are great, you don't have to have a dedicated server to get large amounts of people if you build something that's fun that people enjoy people will come. Blockland is not getting ruined its growing and with dedicated servers there is something to do at all hours if nothing else is getting hosted
