It seems that lots of people have favourited our server and if we just get a few people to jump on for half an hour or so then all the usual "random" lot hop on and the server fills up.

It just takes a little reminder like this thread from time to time to remind us all to chip in when we can and try to start the server. Of course people aren't going to want to "piss their time away" as zool so eloquently put it... that's normal, but we just need to keep making sure people put in their share of effort towards getting the server started as this is our way of attracting new members, squadding up and having fun - pretty much the focal point of our community is it not? A little kick up the arse now and again is all that's needed IMO, not an argument and ridiculously strong opinions flying around.

Personally I think the VIP idea is a good one; the more you contribute, the more you get out of being a member. I know it's a bit of a bummer getting kicked for another BFB member but at the end of the day it's just a game, we're all here to have fun and you can easily just wait in line for 2 mins until another slot becomes available and jump back on again.

Understandably, the VIP thing can seem unfair but there's no need to go mental over it. If people feel that strongly about it, maybe we should take a vote on whether to remove it or not? Just a thought.

I agree totally (except the vote bit at the end!), it is what it is and i'm all for a bit of incentive to be more active on bfb's behalf.

Had i realised it was a "Random kick" before i made this thread i wouldn't of said anything.....wish i hadn't now!

Apologies again!
