Hi I was wondering how would I go about having this ribbon I made be places on the server that are almost full? like if a server has 5 slots left then this banner would show on top of the map image. here is what it would look like

Also how would i add this banner for the new server?

I was thinking about just asking them to the map image but this would change if the server had no one in it.. and it would stay on forever.

Wow a twist of an idea I must say this is original... I am curious how it would help populate the servers... Would it make popular servers more popular and un popular servers less popular?

Would it make regulars feel guilty if they do not make the un popular servers popular?

Either way having some type of control to show popularity other then player slots used sounds interesting it's nothing more then a gimmick but I am sure people will see it as something they should be interested in!

Same as when someone says there is a sale and there s always someone to randomly by something just because it's on sale!

You could edit the class and change the transparent gif image depending on players numbers.

But the rest you will have to work out, because I agree with cozmic and think its a waste of time having a graphic stating the obvious.
