Truth is the admins of the server just aren't any good at pking. They like pvming and skilling so they're in the owners ear telling them that everyone wants a skilling server! Meanwhile, the "742!" that Alex was referring to had 10 players for the however many months (6+, dragged it out because all of the staff slaved it) they had it up.

People want to play BS for the namesake. The excuse that people play spawn servers instead of battlescape is rubbish. People just don't want to slave for 16k hours.

(TRIGGER WARNING FOR THE NERDY SKILLING STAFF) If Pali actually made a thread of what the old pkers wanted (triggered yet skillers?), I'm sure it would be understood that we want easy everything but hard enough that pking good items meant something. Obviously we used to have to slave for stuff because we were 14-18, but now we are adults. If it was known 3 weeks prior that the same-ish BS was coming back there would be a lot of excitement. Obviously for not, seeing as it seems Pali doesn't like pking servers anyway, but still
Interesting theory, however, I cannot validate this as I quit in 2010. But if that is the case, we are truly missing out because BS was a gem back then for pking. The community and clan activity with high level pking at MB was just top!

Although we are mostly all in adult age who played BS back then haha and it does affect the amount of time you can spend on a game to be fair, although I seen Dawntained RSPS have nailed it with Pking scene and the thrill of pking good items is there. But I feel Pali can achieve a great PK server like he has done in the past, no doubt. It would be a matter of advertising the server as a renewed RSPS which yes it was cause alot of excitement. That is if he would even consider doing this...but I am not getting into any of this because it isn't my server. Haha
