Please save the small servers!!! (goblin)

What are you trying to queue up for in DF? Because I'm also from Goblin and I have zero issues. I see plenty of people running around, but yes, I will admit, PF is a bit empty. But that's simply because most already have groups they flock with. Duty finder on the other hand isn't exclusive to our server. The only reason a DF should be empty is if you are running content that no one in the game really like's to run anymore as it doesn't provide anything that people really want anymore.

But posts like these do nothing to help us. In fact, it makes people LESS likely to want to join Goblin. It's not actually dead. But every time you say it is, people are more likely to avoid it because, who wants to join a dead server? Yes, it's lower population. For me, that's great. It means my market prices sell higher (not as frequently though, but the difference in price usually makes up for that). Look at the upsides to our server instead of the down. I've known multiple people to recently transfer over to Goblin because of word of mouth in my FC.

If a player wants to join a server because of its population, then they'd make sure to ask around for the most populated servers. No one would (again, specifically looking for server population) join your server unless someone lies and says your server has high population, even if there wasn't any thread on forums about your low pop server. Just saying. I personally joined a high populated server to join a friend because he said it was one of the highest populated in Primal data (Hyperion) and it was true, people everywhere, PF filled with lots of stuff, active boards, active fates farming and queues weren't so bad, except for PvP as always. If otherwise I wouldn't have asked for the high pop one, I'd have joined a server with a name I liked.
