In my opinion there are some millions of people wandering around the internet looking for a "good" game. A game such as Illy will attract several thousands of gamers who are really unsuited to it as all they wish is to join, grow very fast, fight anyone in reach, sound off, and just want to become the top dog for few weeks.  They then leave which is a good thing for those of us who prefer Illy as it is now.

Illys working fine.  Leave well alone.

well there probably alot of available room here, just need to get rid of the inactive accounts that are being babysat, but if the devs dont change this rule land is running out with every new account added, its my belief illy is losing alot of new players because of the age of the game, a new server would totally change this, it will be a fresh game, illy is a great game, adding a new server with a big advertising push would bring in plenty of new players to populate the game, the current situation is limiting new players starting the game, i am wondering or suggesting that the game take some sort of survey of why so many new people quit the game.....please stay on the subject and resist making personal comments on the writers, this trend of attacking in open topics needs to stop, its bad enough in gc

Some people may hope for a new server to create a new essence of illyriad, or a part of the community heart.  Here we have one, in a new server another, two aspects that would continue to benefit illyriad.

Other then the standard new server needs for people to catch up, the more in game political aspect may call for a new server to some.

I think a new server right now would not turn out very good. Sure there is less room and less stuff but the map is pretty big. There is alot of unusable space that might be opened up later. We have no telling what might happen with the future plans the developers might have.

There is only a couple times when I see a new server is in order. One is when there is to many players for the server to handle. And others are less important. Just recently I looked around the map and found tons of open unexplored area where you can have 7 food towns. Mind you the food sov bonus is anywhere from 50-35%.

There is room but players have been trapped in this mindset on what makes a good spot. Until players can stop listening to certain vets and see how things function they will be out of luck.

Its to hard telling how much room is open because suspended players, multi account players,and people that keep should be suspended accounts going by sitting them. Though I do think something should be done to free up some space.
Make it your ambition to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business and to work with your hands, so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders and so you will not be dependent on anybody.

Creating a new server separate from this one will be the first coffin nail for Illy.  

If you want to play a game that will make a new server every month or so, and thusly create skeleton servers or would like to play 5 servers at once; try any of the hot garbage Gameforge puts out.

I agree. If overcrowding really is a big problem (Which it may be in some regions but there are still a lot of good spots in the North) then the way to fix it is to either be more vigorous in removing inactives or to add another landmass to the game map.

I disagree. The sweet spots are running out. But there are plenty of other spots still out there. It just means you will need to compete for great spots or take second pickings. Imagine after a war everyone starts picking at the good spots that are now available.
