I've been playing tibia for a quite a long time and what I have seen is that most servers don't have enough content or it's to high of an exp rate. Most of the servers I see you can play for like 5 days and already have done all the quests and everything so there is pretty much nothing left to do, and then there are the servers where its like 3x exp and its to slow. All the servers I see barley ever release updates and even if they do its not much, as you can see all the popular servers have constant updates and the exp isn't to high, examples, Collapser, its only 15 exp but the monsters give a lot of exp and they are constantly updating. MortalOt, 20 exp, Unline 10 exp. What I suggest for most servers is either make it low exp but monsters give a lot kinda like Collapser, or don't release the server unless you have a lot of content, otherwise people can play for like a week and then there is nothing to do so they will just quit. I'm not sure if anyone else agrees with me but this is what I have seen in most servers.

Why most server don't last long.

Don't release servers if you can do everything in just a few days, I want to find a good server that doesn't run out of stuff to do. Each server I play, its like I play for 5 days and then I just quit because I already did everything.

please note that most of server owners are just kids, so don't expect too much =/

Well, yeah, most of the good server owners are in college or adults, I guess because you have to have a certain level of patience and maturity to actually get the best out of your server.. You can't expect a 12-13 year old to run a big server, because they have other things to do..
I'm glad there's not any like that.. Your only a kid once, live with it.

Yeah exactly, also most kids won't actually "Work" like put effort into scripts and all that stuff, they just want to have fun in their own ot and maybe even make some cash out of it, people start complaining, they can't handle it.. Shuts down.
Well I did have idea's in mind, and I have been wanting to make my own server but I really have no idea how to script or anything like that, if anything all I can pretty much do its sprite weapons, map and think of idea's.

Not even trying to advertise my server just lettin everyone here know.. If you want a server thats full of quests, turns, and shit to do, and amazing pvp action check out my signature.. Plus i aint shuttin this off until it dies out. Been worken on the map on and off for years now (no joke) and running of a stable version of OTserv.. If your not interested in oldschool ignore this=p
A couple friends and I are making our own OT's, well... mine is just to learn. They might actually try to succeed. So, if you want to learn with us give me a msg. I can teach you the little that I know and hopefully you'll be able to teach us something too (we're all nubs). We also play on an OT together called Frozenhell.
I got 8.54 and 8.62 server up, going to focus on the 8.62 if I can get a good datapack for it.

Also, a lot of those failed servers are people in the learning process.

Make your own datapack, I would prefer to play a game that has their own content(even if it's a little crappy) then having to play a datapack that has been used over and over again.
@induce, I used to play Frozen-hell like half a year ago but then I quit lol, never got that high of a level, but I'm also wondering what kind of server are you guys working on? Because everyone I see just makes real map or cheaply made maps like forgotten, acid, naxed, evolution, etc... If I ever did want to make a server I would want it to be 100% custom which I guess most people don't like, but I would want to make new items, monsters, quests, spells etc.. because for me, new=fun, seeing the same old maps and the same old monsters and quests is just so boring.

U must be blind? Checkout the mapping section, and find Evora. (no offence, just sayin xd)
Well I look for severs that are finished, otherwise ill get my hopes up and then it turns out they will never release it or something like that. That has happen to much to me so I just look for servers that are open and done.
