alright ive been trying to write a reply but the website physically wont let me for some reason so back to the original topic i guess

[IkeTheGeneric]

The biggest issue is that people who have the will to create servers and the means to have too high standards for their own server, and end up throwing away really good concepts because they didn't think it would be good enough. I've seen 15 different people do this

You don't need flashy lights and complicated systems to have fun, you just gotta make something good yo

that's true actually but there does need to be a certain "standard" of quality, i guess

A quality standard will set itself, there's no need to judge people's servers.

If it's good, fun or generally entertaining, it will get players. The amount of players on a server can be a good scope of how much the majority enjoys that server.

If you see "stuffty" servers getting popular, it might be due to the fact that certain niche servers such as family rps or FNaF servers have a sizeable, but persistent following. If you looked a little closer at the names of the players who are on every family rp server, you'll notice it's just a handful of people who only play on family rps.

As far as the whole "Why don't you make your own server" thing goes, I've been regularly working on a western fortwars RPG roleplay thing and even though I've been regularly working on it, it still isn't remotely close to being done. These things take time, you see.

some of the best servers are something simple, fun, and extremely hard to forget up. like knife tdms and also that draw something thing, that was great

look at me look at me! I posted in this thread too :D

If you truly want to host something but don't have the technical means to, I could prolly whip up a bearbones make-your-own-rpg server kit using VCE and post the save for you people to use to make your own

this is slightly off topic but what if there was speedkart, except with horse-drawn carriages and bows
or maybe like rc cars so you just keep trying until someone wins

sounds good to me

because i was loving around on a "le funny ironic school rp server xd," a very clearly quality server that was meant to be taken seriously

i'm supposed to take the server seriously. alright.
you're gonna have to try harder to get dirt on me

everybody else was loving around, because it's a joke server. im not really sure why there would be much room to complain about people loving around on a joke server, but alright.

im not even responding to reinforcements because his server is one of my finest examples of stuffty design with stuffty hosts. just because "thats what the server is fundamentally" doesnt mean it's good. plus i saw him tell someone something along the lines of "i'm doing this to annoy you" and i really dont take those hosts seriously.

but again i dont really want to host a server

tl;dr OP sounds like is a massive over-entitled douche.

Quit while you're ahead, oh wait..

nice spongebob brown townogy there, buddy.

if you have the brain function to be creative then you should be able to host a decently fun server. it's not that hard.

[The Resonte!]

It's not that easy. It is really rare for a good server to become properly populated. Most people join a server based on playercount, so unless you have a large group already in there it's going to pretty much a random of luck against all of the other garbage servers polluting the top of the list.

this is true

Yikes, it's almost as if you didn't read the thread.

there's a big forgetin difference between joke servers and servers that are actually meant to be enjoyed and taken seriously. im not entirely sure where you're going with this post, but it's a weak as argument either way.

i mean im pretty sure i've made it clear countless times that the complications of hosting are more trouble than i want to go through. and again, this was for people who want to make servers themselves, or people with servers right now. for example if you bought a stuffty product and said "wow there arent that many good products right now, i want to see something better." it would be pretty dumb to say "make your own product." y'know i just wanna enjoy some good servers, not make one of my own the probably wouldnt get too popular anyways.
