SA-MP server toplist instead of adverting on forums - Ivan_Pantovic - 13.02.2011
I think its stupid to have adverting on forum, because people post thousands of ads in one month and when they get caught, they just make a new account, so I'm suggesting something like xtremetop100.com, but on samp host. For example: top.sa-mp.com
PS. - Aardvark Topsites work great

What? a site that shows the top 100 servers? we already have that... http://www.game-monitor.com/search.p...=sa-mp&num=100

game-monitor can be buggy I prefer to use http://monitor.sacnr.com/

Top list is good, but I think that list can allow server owners to choose to add their servers into it or not.
Some of the servers are not willing to be global I think because of the language problems.
Re: SA-MP server toplist instead of adverting on forums - Ivan_Pantovic - 14.02.2011
This is what game-monitor is :
when i said toplist, i meant on a site where people VOTE for their favorite server, and toplist makes a list based on votes.
Votes restart each month, so all servers would have a chance.

Only rating, no advertising. Members will decide where to play based on the Top 100

the players ALREADY decide which servers rank highest; more players = higher rank...
i think it's fair to say that if lots of people are playing a server, it's got to be fun for them?

These votings are always faked and many servers tell their players to vote, to get more players - may end in vote spamming.

If you want a good sa-mp server go to Game Monitor - http://www.game-monitor.com/search.php?game=sa-mp or look on the Hosted Tab
there is no need to change how servers are advertised as its most likely no one looks there anyway.
As [HLF]Southclaw said mostly every server posted in the Server Advertisements thread. Have just downloaded a script like Raven's Roleplay and uploaded it to their server and saying its their script and offering you free cars, admin or offical faction slot to join.

They should do a big poll 1 day on the forum and whichever servers are the best, The SA-MP team should give out recommendations to those high rep. servers

There is no magic and there is no need for all of this.
If your server is good and unique people will stay on it. I had a cod server which had 70+ on everyday
Re: SA-MP server toplist instead of adverting on forums - Saurik - 03.03.2011
I had hosted list and advertised here like 1 time every 2 months ...
first 2 weeks 15-30 players
in 4 months 50-60
during summemr - 80-100

Nothing is perfect so just leave it the way it is not hating
Re: SA-MP server toplist instead of adverting on forums - Omecken - 04.03.2011
I think the advertising section is a great way for new servers to get a stable playerbase. It's hard to gain members without advertising the server, especially if you can't afford the hosted tab. We should not restrict the advertising section for only players with a certain post count to post. That's completely stupid. I might not have a high post count but that doesn't make me a retard. If you notice one server is getting adverised several times a week, it's most likely crap and you wouldn't join it.

Stupid suggestion, its fine this way!
I totaly agree with [HLF]Southclaw.
+If your server will be good enough, players will stay anyway, even if its only on Internet, Im also tired of same RP servers, bunch of kids ( usual 14-16 ), have been played on some RP server, than they decide to make own server, because thats how it MUST be, you MUST have own server, so they take one of the GF edits and think they will get up one more LS-RP, but in short time they realize that they dont know how to script and starts to spam sa-mp.com, thats how it is.
Well, only way how to get many players is to buy Hosted tab each 2nd month and to not use GF edits or any other released script.

best advertisement of all its the mouth to mouth (friend telling another friend), when u start a server u can try to advertise it in any place but if it is not a good gamemode the forget it.
there is too many things that makes influence at the moment you do the opening and the advertisement for your server and there will be always a clone, trust me if there is no other similar script a guy will code a new one with same features or even better to take your people xD

Choose Some SA:MP Players (that have a good rep here on the Forums) And they Gonna visit servers from the Server Advertise, When that server haves a Good Gamemode, Nice Members, Good Community etc. The Testers (that are chosen) can write a Good review about that server.. And they can set them in a List with 'good' Servers... So every server haves a Fair Chance to get into the Good List
PS: Sorry for bad english, I Hope you guys will understand xD
