Well, I guess we're assuming the people on the lowpop servers are actually there to play. I think Clarks is right that people use those to do whatever experiments undisturbed. If they wanted to actually play they would join the most populated or second most populated servers, not spread themselves out as they do already. We could just as easily end up with the same lowpop server with only two of them.
Besides that, I guess its a separate issue but I thought a server with more than 40 people in it is a laggy crowded chaotic clusterfuck. I assumed a lot of people put up with it because fuck trying to populate a server when 70 people are going to pile into the one server anyways. At least with a server cap those servers would fill out eventually, unlike now. And if we have no investment from stopping the playercount from getting too high, why should we care if the low population servers are being used effectively?
