It once again. Is TSRP season. I remember about two years ago, waiting almost hours every single day to play. Not only will this make the wait time less, it will also increase RP. More people for more orgs. For example, our PD is huge at the moment. We usually have a 2-1 ratio of Police to Yakuzza/Mafia. Also having a lot more people will increase small RP situations and aid in bigger ones. People will be more likely to stick to their basic jobs if they have a purpose. I think it can only add good. The only issue i see is / could be the need for more admin's to control a lot more people, but I think that wouldn't be too hard to do.

Another reason is that winter is coming, so some schools may be delayed or closed. Plus you have Christmas break!

The way I see it, increasing the server slots would most likely contribute towards the server getting more unstable than it already is, But like the ones have said above, christmas break is just around the corner so im rather split on this subject to be honest.

I believe it's a good idea, and the benefits the server will gain outweigh any cons. Yes it adds the possibility for more DMers, server instability, and more people who'd mess around or screw things up, but the admins have been doing fine as it is now.

I suppose the only problem then would be wether this would cost anything extra? As it appears to be abit hard to keep the server afloat, economily, already.

it won't cost more, we rent an entire box so we can either pay for the entire thing or none of it. Resource wise the server should be able to handle it easily.

Before the server couldn't take it so we just stuck with 20 players, now we have the server that can do it so we are asking for public opinion.

Some of the reasons not to is that it could cause a lot of chaos, make the job harder on admins if alot of people are asking for help, just things like that.

Well, you can fix that by hiring more admins.

More slots = more admins. I'd hate to see one admin on with 29 players bitching at them. Please make sure we have enough admins to do this before we make the transition. :)

The only issue with this is thats its nearly impossible to tell. If every admin was on at the same time consistently every week it would be easy to say right now that we have enough admins. However I can't say that, and infact there are alot of issues with players that are going unheard by admins as it is do to various factors.

My fall break starts in a few days, so you'll have me for at least a couple of weeks.

We will be raising the limit to 30 players tonight sometime, judge how everything goes for a week, then reevaluate it and decide if we should keep it or not.

It still says 20 in the server browser. Don't know if it's just me, but I thought I'd either say something or simply ask why.

Ah I know why, it really was 30 though.... Ok I've fixed it, it will display all 30 slots correctly now.

sv_maxvisableplayers 20 was the culprit
