I think I dont, and anyway...I care little.

Im not asking for every server to do this. Just one that has the balls to try it. Im not saying categorically that it will go perfectly well, but there are enough good points for me to suspect that it will mean the server will have more players, for a longer, more sustained, period of time.
I dont see how that constitutes me wanting to wreck it for the "rest".

Good arguments....

1. People should stay around doing something they don't like for your benefit.
- Ok! Did you used to run a cotton field , by any chance?
2. "camp, snipe, spam grenades/prox mines..." .
- Bring up frowned upon tactics , whilst ignoring the positive tactics. Nice tactic

You cant setup a mod, or anything, hoping to keep it going by people doing things they don't want, or like, to do. Some may have a) better things to do than sit on a server for ages hopin to populate it, esp. considering the small-ish community at hand, or b) a less selfless nature than others.

I actually jumped on DSGaming last night and then minimized back to desktop to do other things, problem with DS tho is that you get booted for being idle, so hoping to getting it started without being bored out of you mind is difficult.

Well that is nice for you, but it is just wishful thinking to suggest that, a year after the mod has been released, people will suddenly learn to love space

One of the main things is they drag on too long. Jumping in a fighter and flying at a tower or gallofree can only hold the majority of people for so long (they last even too long for the "selfless ground pounders" ) .
Like I said Taloraan is a different matter due to the (potential) tactics involved.

I made this thread really for everyone but RT . I know how set in your ways you "RTer's" are

I would suggest mixing up the ground maps tho. I think it is your server that has the 2 Endor maps together. May be wrong tho.

******************************************

I knew that before I posted this thread that Id get the few hardcore community members jump in and "big up" space. Im not here to kill space maps - otherwise I would be trying to get ground only servers, initially (that is plan B ). 
Space can be fun(well atleast Taloraan) , I am not slagging space off. Just stating the facts that the majority of players like infantry more than space (player counts regularly dropping from around 18 to 6, when space rears its head, you can not escape from) and trying to figure a way to improve things, rather than just hoping it will get better.

The "problem" with space is that they require teamwork. Without teamwork, it's just spawn, fly at your target, get shot down, rinse and repeat, and of course that gets boring. Mos Espa, too, would quickly get boring if that's what everyone did - flung themselves at Slave Quarters and Junkyard one at a time, got a few shots off, died at the hands of pre-placed turrets and a squad of enemies, and did the same thing over again.

But once you've got squads formed and people actually stay together, they're fantastic. Yavin wouldn't "drag out so long" if the Rebels actually employed strategy and tactics to win.

And yes, I do indeed believe people can be taught this. If we throw Community Games and get some teamwork going on space maps with 30-60 people on, players will eventually realize that, hey, there is something to be found here, and the more people we got to realize that, the better space would be.

Good thing you have a plan b, 'cause your plan a will very likely fail .

1. Taloraan loads up, player count maybe drops to 6, as you predict.
2. EfH loads up, people have no fun since only 6 people are on, more disappear. Map votes get spammed, but you know as well as me that those are totally unpredictable.
3. You're left with an empty server for hours.
