Nah, it does get enough views.
I think the main problem is that they don't appeal to viewers. Lots are posted by amateurs that don't contribute to the forums much, but post as soon as they hit 5 reps. Most are rushed efforts too. I often see server ads that are copied, or outdated. As well as this, there are many with poor grammar and spelling. I mean, the least you could do is to put in a bit off effort before posting an ad that people put in their own effort by clicking and reading it.
Another issue is that servers contain way too much resemblance, especially with edits etc. The server is either RP, DM, TDM, CnR or drift/Stunt/Free Roam and people just choose by what genre. The other things to go by are: The Name, Hosted tab, Paid domain, etc.
I personally am not a fan of .tk domains, hissy community names like "Amazing Gaming," "Infinity Gaming," "Superb Gaming," refunsds etc and a lot of other silly things like that.
Servers should look and feel unique, rather than generic. Then again, everyone's "unique."
