desperate times for server names
 
when I connect to the server list at login I notice some servers love to take desperate measures of adding those little characters to the server name to keep them on top. do ya really need to do that to attract players?

Uhh. I do it so people can easily find the server.

How are they desperate measures when it's alt code.

So, why are you complaining?

Scamming the system!

I don't see his server with a population of 50, even after a migration to a new host.

Seems clear the EMU project has gotten too good. I remember the good old days when people posted about getting their servers to work and stuff.

They don't even know the struggle, not even close

Hey man, I remember helping "whatshisname" get Duckwad's running.

That was a trip. I was also like 12.

And for the record, people have always been using special characters in the standard list
