Now its full 24/7 and people are getting kicked for admins to join all the time... Maybe 25 slots? (24 if you don't count the reserved one)

Since it's full 24/7 now, there's a balance between the main and fun servers. How? Simple. Here's a typical day of TF2 Before cap reduced the slots:

Funserver full by noon.
Main Server pretty much dead.

Here's after:

Funserver full by noon.
Main Server full by... maybe 3?

Do you see the improvement?
Life is whatever.

True. But then that means funserver... dregs... going to the mainserver. Maybe put some of the more serious funserver maps on the mainserver instead? Maybe even a meleemode map, if need be. A serious one.

Get the main server full more often and we'll talk about adding more slots back to the funServer.

Serious maps that seem "funservery" should be on the funserver for a few days, then ninja'd to the mainserver, with a popup saying "Liked (mapname)? It's now on our regular server rotation! (mainserverIP)". Will attract more to mainserver.

There was a mod at one point that would push ppl to another specific server that were kicked because of reserved slots.

Well, I think with all the time the funserver is full the main is bound to get at least a few more people

this has been a horrible fail. the funserver has been constantly full and nobody feels like populating the main server. i think we need a server fill, for the mainserver. i posted a topic about it in the custom server issues and sugestions

If we closed the funserver, what would happen to the main server?
