We need at least two players in the server, idling and help server get populating for gaming time.
I am concern about the server, it's empty most of the time. The RANKED server required minmum 6 players to start the game.
it make it difficult to start the game.
Maybe we can set a coordianate for the BF2 players to meet on the server to help it get populate..
Such as for example... When I might dont have much of time but I will get on server to get it started and till it get more populate, I can left later when there's more than 6 players..
any suggestion to help populate the server, We dont want to waste the money invested in the server.

Thanks guys and any feedback on how to pull players in our server.. pls do share...
I was thinking about maybe we should change the server name to just "Zero Tolerance" the name itself show a lot.
I also hope that once we got the website fixed, we will look as professional long term clan that may help with recuiting on the server too.
Feedbacks on what maps to use, rules, vechicles, etc.. shoot away.

I think having 'Zero Tolerance' in the title is a good idea. Also, I think having infantry only would work to get people on the server.

Maybe run popular maps. mashutar,wake 2007, karkand, sharqui, maybe run some of them as inf only. Maybe have some people advertise on thier myspace page, craigslist, listed as your info on xfire, on your servers 42,18, and any other servers you may have running. forum.game-monitor.com/archive/index.php?t-1103.htmlRat

Thank you for making this post Wild!
We have had trouble with populating it but it doesn't seem to hard to get people to join when we have at least 3 people there.
We need to figure out what maps we would like to play! Infantry Only all Maps etc. So the existing members (and good Clan friends..Rat, Snyper) that play Battlefield 2 please express your opinions on what you would like as map choices. Things won't change until members & others start expressing their ideas! I want a server where are members love to play in. So this means, discuss maps, vehicles, rules, server name..etc.
As of now rules are simple enough. NO swearing, keep it clean. Commanders do not fly.

I wouldn't mind doing infantry only. We did have better population too.
I don't want to make any settings so quick because before I know there were a couple of people that prefer vehicles.

I have been playing BF2 since it came out, not everyone likes infantry only. In fact myself and the few players I hang with avoid infantry only.
What I have seen that populates servers is mature players & rules must be put in place, so the non-cheaters/hackers have a safe haven to enjoy the game. As long as the admins are honest and treat newcomers with respect and do not break they're own rules people will come back I see this more than anything. Aserver has rules in place but the admins do not follow them and kick the people who follow they're example. when I see this I leave imediately whether my score is good or not. One of the best rules is to not attack non capturable flags. This gives the non experianced players a chance to actualy get somewhere before they die again. it takes time but once the word gets out that your server is worthy then it will always be populated.

US_Snyper does have a good point.
Also, I know we allow base camping in 1942 but should we do the same in BF2? We could just allow just Spec Ops to enter the mains.
