I'm really happy with Nulear Fallout, but I'm having a very hard time getting my server populated. Any suggestions for popular modes and mpas to get it going? thanks for any helpful comments.
Cheers

Re: Getting a server started
The key things are...
- player resources (willing regulars/community members) and their activeness in getting servers started
- time and patience
- finding something unique to run to give to the players (has to also captivate them) map/mode/rotation-wise
- seeding computer(s) on your end (when a server is empty, I seed with the computer I game with as well as an alternative computer right beside my playing computer)
- trying to stay active while seeding a server - although putting your guys in the server as idle is better than naught, staying active will surely help get a server going more so (don't go hard on the players or they'll leave and try keeping things as balanced as possible keeping that first thing in mind)
- rinse and repeat all the above to eventually get a self filling server (could take up to a few months or just a few weeks if you're lucky)
