The capped Goonstation Nightshade servers demonstrated this isn't quite true. Yeah, there were some people who played on the servers below the cap, but there was also a lot of people who just waited for a slot to open up in the capped servers, in about the manner Sov described. Again, like I said earlier, while server population is the biggest deciding factor for a lot of people, for a lot of people, there are other factors that are more important.
I think you took what I said in the wrong direction Studenterhue, I was arguing that if a server has a lower population under the amount that you prefer or would deem necessary as the bare minimum for playable, you're not going to want to play on that server that has not enough people, and would rather opt to play on a different server with more people, even if the different server had a population amount that was higher than what you preferred, or you would opt to not play at all.
