We need 2 servers, so everyone can enjoy the game to their playstyle they like most:

one for peacefuls
and one for PvP people with no nidbanes,crime debuffs, visitors debuff and all the other gay crap stuff

I just want to apply the scientific method to it and see who is right.
That is more or less the idea behind Granger's server. A few people declared interest and it would cost the devs nothing.
I'm down to it because it has a one-char policy. I still think the issue is not pvp, but alts. Meaningful pvp does sound kinda fun.
how would having a 2nd server cost the developers nothing everything has a cost and nothing is for free and how did he plan to enforce this 1 character policy anyways

that's better than playing on the same server with all these peacefuls that don't want the permadeath/pvp aspect in the game and making jorb&loftar make all the gay crap stuff like making mechanics that make crimes/raiding much harder to do.

splitting the playerbase means basically killing the game twice as fast not to mention all of the other extremely numerous problems that could arise in a haven world where there is no pvp its a trolls wet dream honestly

how is it going to kill the world? Both types of playstyle would get the best gameplay experience the game can offer according to their taste of playstyle instead of conflicting each other on one main server.

Knowing from experience from other games, those who sucks in PvP or those bored with PvP would probably swap just into second server to troll peaceful ones. And I rather see it 50/50. Some people would still play on PvP just for the sole feeling of danger and possibility of losing everything.


I would be more afraid of J&L making accidentally two different games, because content would might start to differ at some point.

cuz there would be far fewer players to kill for the pvp players which means they would quit at an accelerated pace not to mention all of the pvp players that would quit cuz they were not hardcore enough to fight against the larger more powerful factions which will also work as an even greater deterrent to new people playing that server what u would be left with is a game with 1 dead server and a server that is pretty much dead and that runs a version of the game that the devs dont like which risks potentially having the devs lose motivation to make the game and then ud have all of the trolls that can now run around for free with no consequence cuz nobody can kill them not to mention this game has no end game content other than pvp
