Id just like to put my two pence forward for some suggestions, not for a particular server but for the community.
I have been monitoring the player population over the past few weeks on EU survival and EU scourge. Survival has had around 20-30 players on an evening and Scourge around 50-60.
There are some features on both that certain people like; however, you are hosting 4 servers per region for Scourge and Survival.
My suggestion would be to merge Survival and Scourge into one server; this would
Save server running costs, making it so there are more funds available for better servers.
Bring more people together as a community.
Features would include: Decay, same as Scourge (as everything is easier on Survival, upkeep wouldn't be a problem)) Pipes addon, Zombies
If this suggestion is thought upon, people could vote on the features they want or don't want.
If this isn't the way forward, I do believe there is an opportunity for players to transfer some net worth (at the staff's discretion) to either Scourge or Survival. The one rule would be that it could only be done once, and not all of your net worth, as with Survival it's easier to get net worth.
The reason I'm suggesting this is because I started on Scourge with my friend and I absolutely love it; however, some of the features on Survival are very interesting and could make the gameplay much better for certain individuals.
If anyone else has any other suggestions, please post and discuss.
