I don't see a problem with that either

I have a suggestion.

Lets make PsA meetings on sniper once in TWO weeks, we are the only ones playing on it usually anyway, lolz.

Hi there,

I think it's very important to support the servers that are having a really hard time. After all, that is why the PSA (project server activity) was founded.
I can see that spending so much time for an apparently "empty" server can be frustrating, and I can also understand your desire to reduce the time invested into Sniper, and possibly use it at another place. However, I think settling with biweekly meetings is the wrong way to go, because it would effectively decrease activity by creating large time spans with virtually no players at all.

I certainly respect and highly appreciate the way you guys organize and advertise your meetings, so I hope you will stick with your current schedule. At the same time, I'd be glad if you could consider Master's idea. If nobody wants to join your meetings, you should probably go and do something else, possibly using the time to boost another server. This way you'd keep the regular weekly schedule, while at the same time not using your time at places it will just be "wasted".

Another way of increasing time efficiency might be working more closely with the server supremes to find the right times for your meetings. For example, at the very moment Tech is working out an event for sniper. Wouldn't it be great to "merge" it with one of your scheduled meetings? You'd have more players to join you, and the event more visitors in total. I'm rather sure this has been done in the past already, and as far as I can remember it certainly was successful.

Please think about it. Thanks!

Ligustah, the only reason I suggested that is bcs on EVERY SINGLE meeting for a long time already, it's only PsA members on the meetings +/- 2 other people.

And it was done the same with HS meetings for a while, they were active, for 3 meetings, then they stopped coming. It will be the same with Sniper I fear.

As Master (and Snacky few weeks ago) said, we should still show up on the meeting and if after 15+ minutes we see it's not going we can just go on a different server and have fun there, as we have done in the past. I don't see how showing up for at least 15 minutes would hurt you :P
Anyway, it's not about time spent there but players, if nobody shows up we can always leave even after 5 minutes.

Yes, i mentioned the exact same thing as master just a few weeks ago but for some reason it got shot down :P let's just stick to that instead

[NightFall]

All has been said; Don't think that ditching sniper is the right way to go. But if nobody shows up then I think we are free to go play on a different server that we like. (and the same goes for any of the events)

About what Mimus posted a while ago about new members for PsA.

Lets do a topic, new one about recruiting into PsA, lets leave it till the end of the week, and since next week lets add them into activity check, is someone will be active, friendly enough, let him join.

Lets do it now tho, when PsA is a hot topic currently. ;P

I'm in for this ND-event. I also think Cross is right. This is getting too much of a "hot topic" in my opinion, we might as well make "good use" of it and test new members. If it works out, we have fresh air, new tests and it might work out. As Charmy said, you guys (since i just joined i cannot take that credit obviously) have been working on this for ages and are online every time. If one falls out, it is noticed instantly.

That is why I think we should try and use the arguments stated in the other thread. If it does NOT work, we also know that there is criticism without people actually willing to help out and take action (which i hopefully doesn't happen).

I know I'm not in the position to decide such thing, I hope it's something to take into consideration. Even tho it's a bit harsh said, I think Charmoo was right at quite some points there. Again, I'm new. I'm not overlooking all the hard work that has been put into this.
