    We recently launched the new All the Mods: Volcanoblock server and it immediately filled up. Now, in the past when we have had more than one node the second node usually sits empty. Everyone wants to play on the main node where everyone else is.

    So, do you think we should put up a second VB node?

    Just my personal opinion on this but id would say yes wait about a week or two and see how player count is before like merging/shutting down one node. Summers almost over as well for some folks so player count may drop.

    Dang, well, i wanted to try it out. But Snek is probably right it should drop off a bit in a few weeks to a month. Is there a merging process for the Nodes? if there is and the process isnt messy it could be an option.

    considering how new 1.18+ servers are probably no merging stuff ATM considering it took who knows how long for 1.18/1.19 server software to be as stable as it is. But granted theres still a good amount of room on VB currently

    I definitely think launching any new server on 2 nodes is a good idea, due to how many people join at once. But that's only if it's easy to merge after, because there's definitely a sharp decline within a month or two. If it's not easy to bring character bases/inventories over, then it wouldn't be worth the extra resources long term.

    I'm a little confused as to why you mention this cause I don't recall them ever carrying bases over when a server merges or shutsdown

    I voted yes but I would wait a month or two and see how much the player base drops for the server cause new servers player count usually cuts in half after the first two months

    I vote NO. There is a reason behind the no. I have seen servers fill to capacity the first week, hell the first month. I have then seen the server drop from 30 people online in one game to maybe 3. it is unfortunate that the earlier programs (Mod Packs) like Revelation has lasted so long hat it is even included in this group. I do not think that the extra expense of a second server is warranted right now because we just got the pack and I have seen nowhere like the 30 that is the max. I think that after a month if the attendance gets high and stays that way, then pop for the second server.

    They lowered the player count to 16 and now it's pretty much always full

    That's why not everything needs to be democratic and some stuff should be left to professionals.

    I agree ,but the question WAS ask. We who re interested in the health of the MYM server community, (like all of us should be) are generally the ones that play on the server. This server is having hiccups at 16 players, Lets just see how long the extra server could hold out. I mean it is a monthly expense and just like a pet Servers must be kept happy and well fed. A neglected server, one that isn't utilized is like a neglected pet. ands it goes back to "if you cant take care of it then you font need it.
    I am not speaking as a staff member, NO WAY, but as an interested party in the welfare of MYM a a whole. My vote still remains NO.

    I suppose that I should recant my no vote. I just hope that the server remains a hot topic. I abstain.
