Hi.I think the server should do some more advertising as nobody ever plays anymore, we used to get up to 20+ people on at night including weekdays, yesterday was saturday we didn't even get 10 on.. Please advertise some more and bring back the popularity we once had. |

Or you can vote for the server daily on the websites listed at http://webbcraft.co.uk/vote.html which will give the server a higher rank and more exposure to new players looking for a server to play on. Here is a Graph that Luigi made not too long ago:  Here is what Luigi had to say at the time: "I don't think the server has become less active, in fact activity has probably increased. I made a graph of player activity since the 16th of August 2015 with increments of 5 minutes. As you can see, it looks quite steady. The total average is 14.28933821. When I looked at just the period between now and the start of the year, the average is 16.41100798." from looking at Luigi's graph, you can clearly see the graph fluctuating, at times it was quite far down, and then It shoots up again, I think we are just on a low point at the moment and soon enough it will rise again. I do not think that the server activity has changed much since Luigi's comment. In fact, I think we have had increased amounts of players online since then. it is strongly dependant on time-zones, we have more online at times than others, realistically we will not have the same amount of players online every day and all day. 1.9 is set to release soon and when that is done and Luigi can update spigot, it is highly likely that the server will be full with 80 players at times. when I first joined and there was 40-50 player online average, it was purely down to a new large update being released. this is just a repeat of the events over a year ago. |

Thanks for that, it's made me feel a lot better. Hopefully we'll be active again soon- If not, we must take measures. |

be careful what you wish for xD when its that busy the staff are working at full capacity helping millions of people at once with more people asking for help by the second D: its good but there's a point that there is so much work to do that we practically stop functioning and cant deal with it (we just have random brain farts and get stressed out) xD but that's only of course if the current staff team stays at the same activity. 3 staff members online (armz, lerz, and I) at tops is NOT enough for 80 players. but I think we will be extending the staff board when we get very busy, so that should help things out... but yeah even the best of staff member will get stressed out with 80 impatient kids yelling for help and spamming in caps.. |

I personally find my sweet spot at about 25-30 players, always someone to help, to the point that you can practically go from player to player at a nice steady pace and, well, that's what I love doing. I swear if I was paid to be staff on a server I would have my dream job xD |

Taking a look at more recent graphs however does seem to reveal a downward trend: Looking at specific weeks from the end of January and last week also shows that player activity has dropped somewhat. Keep in mind that the server was offline for most of January 30th which isn't reflected in the graph since the server cannot record data while it's offline. This is the reason why it didn't spike as much on the weekend.  I've included the averages for each period within the images. |

Don't advertise us on other servers, it makes us look bad and is generally disrespectful. |

More players = more populair server = higher chances of gaining more players and grow.We don't have a complete staff team to do nothing about the griefers and spammers, they'll simply be put away! |

Hold up. Bring staff into this. The activity of staff. Lugi, you should make a graph of STAFF activity. Staff have been more active for the past few days. We need more staff. For example, Zac. Zac hasn't been on for a while. |
