You're all talking a load of crap to be honest. The purpose of the hosted tab as I understand it was to integrate your server into a "live" and "open" setting, to make sure your systems and such were well received, create a server buzz, and to ensure it works well when there's actual players online. While this may have initially stood for Ol' West, it is one of the worst servers visually and as "charming" as it may be, the ironic desolation of the server just isn't made up for. There is little to do and I know this I've logged on quite a few times and with 0 players, and such little content, you can hardly entertain yourself. I have seen Ol' Wests new tileset, and things are looking up to be quite fair, but it still shouldn't be on the Hosted tab.

Both Hosted playerworlds have kind of faded into the background for me. I never ever notice Ol' West and I never notice Aeon, and keeping them both on the Hosted list is not within their best interests, server staff or not. What exactly do you think is achieved when keeping those servers up while no one notices or plays them up? Longativity? Easier access when they are eventually updated? Well guess what guys, there's a less chance that people will notice or care you've updated the servers saying as they're kind of "always there" and always doing nothing -- it brings the server down.

If you aren't working on these servers themselves then remove them from the hosted tab as yes, they are detrimental up there with 0 players and 0 updates. Delteria is exactly the same and I've said this to Sandz a lot, you just are not going to have the same *umph* releasing content onto a dead server as you would with a "new server" release. I personally think the Hosted tab itself should be removed completely, but that's a different story altogether and as for the suckups of Tig that voted yes, why the hell aren't you on Ol' West playing if you feel so passionately about it? Grow up idiots and look at the bigger picture.
