I see a thread on balancing servers at least once a week and even more often lately. Every one of them wants UWE to put in a system to balance the servers. What if we the players and server operators did it. Lets brainstorm.
What if server operators made it common practice to put the desired skill level in the server name. I have been seeing a lot of kkg servers lately and will only use them as an example. What if they did a kkg hive 1 (low skill), a kkg hive 2 (mid skill), and a kkg hive 3 (high skill). Doesn't have to be like that. It would just need a common format between servers. There are not that many server operators right now; I believe they have a steam group even. This will only work so well of course... I do think if it became common practice at the server level, and by word of mouth with the player base being so small, it could work reasonable well.
It doesn't even have to be that. The general idea remains the same. It would be a social experiment. If it did not work nothing would change. If it did work it would be great.
