my personal opinion is that a server which is has same old LIVE content yet gives you lower dificulty and x4 Xp modifier- simly won't hold people attention for long. You simply pass it too quickly
I would recomend looking for slower progression custom content server.
You may want to check out Zeborux server, I been reading their boards and its far more diffirent than a typical "x4 xp easy drive" server
