Yesterday after work , 1:00 am... I tried to play on your server, but of course it was empty, I know you guys work too. Anyways I went to game tracker and saw a bunch of people who usually play here showing on line in another server. I went to that server which showed about 24 players online, but when I logged in there was only 2 players in there. It happens all the time in some server showing lots of player but in reality having only a few or sometimes nobody.
do you guys have any clue as why this happens?
I now it does not happens in your server, just a technical question.

There are some servers out there that false advertise "players" , maybe showing 30/48 players but when you get in there are no "real" players in there, its just some coding they did to their server to attract players.
