My observations are from before the Halloween event. Of course during Halloween 
it's easy to have a couple of servers filled, but our vanilla's were normally 
full (before event) every evening (Not in the middle of the night, they never 
are). During the Halloween event they remained as populated as before. However, 
as soon as the Halloween event ended, so did the activity on our servers, also 
on the servers which hadn't participated in the event and whom remained normal, 
filled, vanilla servers.

The drop from a few full servers on a daily base, to literally 0 full servers 
for the last week just seems a bit to steep.

Theres prropably nothing wrong with the system. Halloween just was great
way for some server owners to increase their playercount. People found
new servers and play on them. They just isn't yours, or mine.

I also had servers full 24/7 on halloween, now they are empty at night
just like before.
