KMRA - Legends Status?

Though, it would be nice to have some guidelines to determine status.

IMO, here is a basic criteria we could use for determining status:

Green Status:
1. 95%+ uptime
2. 50+ players on at peak hours
3. Server has been up and open to the public for 3-6+ months straight

Legends Status:
1. 95%+ uptime
2. 150+ players on at peak hours
3. Server has been up and open to the public for 1+ years straight

That is just rough estimates of what I would recommend as requirements.

Sounds very fair and like good rules. I agree completely.

Meant to add this in an edit:

An unfortunate part of not having a green/legend server is that merely having the status invites more players. It wasn't until VTZ got green status that it became large. When I helped work on it, it had roughly around 10-20 solid players (incl. boxers). Soon after VTZ got green status, the community size tripled. (In no way am I bashing them for this! I'm just stating that this is something to keep in mind.) You know what would be cool? If there was an automated system that controlled server status. It's duty would be to watch the up-time/player population and determine itself if these servers meet the standards of a legendary/green server. For a month, the server will have this status and if it falls or degrades in up-time/player population then it will be demoted until proven worthy once more at the end of said month. This would probably be a difficult system to create but it's not worth throwing out considering everyone would have a chance.

While on the subject of KMRA; Mort, if you get a chance, would you please remove the boxes (special characters) and space from the beginning your server name? They aren't allowed in the Green Server Names. I think you had mentioned something about planning to remove them a while back, but probably just forgot about it. I also think PEQ was wanting to remove the brackets from the beginning of their name as well. I think both of those were discussed in the same thread somewhere a while back.

Thanks

Of course..

I originally just put them there because it looked cool , then everyone else started doing it..

Yeah, it definitely wasn't because it bumped your server to the top of the list right?

[KingMort]

No definitely not

Excuse me however I was already at the top of the list when I put those boxes in... lol
