Just a suggestion that we could do a gamemode of the week type thing for the server. This could revive dead gamemodes such as Archerpvp, towny, infection, exc... This could also bring in new players to stick with some of these gamemodes and make them more enjoyable by exposing them to players who are afraid to give them a try. This could possibly increase Mineverse's playerbase in general as new players will come on and try these gamemodes. I'm suggesting this as I play some of these dead gamemodes, and loved to play them while they still had a solid playerbase. Just a thought that could work maybe.
Merkz might not be comfortable with this, as it would show the lack of players on each server. :I... But hey, good suggestion nonetheless.
What is going to possibly increase Mineverse's player base is to fix the current game modes, if anything.
