I love the Scrap TF2 servers, and I also love the regular TF2 gameplay loop. But there's no denying that Scrap Server 1 is completely, undeniably dead. The only time it gets activity is when somebody makes a raffle on the site trying to have people join it, and maybe a private raffle for those who participate. But those are very far and few between.
Server 2, on the other hand, has been going strong. It gets 12+ players almost every day, and frequently its completely full during the evenings/nights.
To make more use of Server 1, I think it might be a good idea to change it so that it's just another hangout/chill server, or to make it custom game modes like the Scrap server a few years ago. The custom modes were always popular, and when it existed, it was the most active server of the TF2 servers.
As it stands, Server 1 is just always sitting at 0/24. People who want classic gameplay will just go to somewhere like Valve servers, Uncletopia, Skial, etc. What are your thoughts on changing Scrap's Server 1?
