    Build isn't active enough to the point where we need three servers - so I think we should merge them together in order to get more of a community feel on the build server. For example, right now, there are around ~7 people on each server, which could easily be made 21 on one of them.

    Thoughts?

    Multiple servers are important if others are laggy, but maybe 3 is an overkill for our current playerbase ^

    Meh, I think it's active enough. Especially since the summer is coming

    That's at 5-6am for most EUs and 12-1am for most Americans. Don't really think that you should remove servers based on player counts at those times however perhaps there could be the removal of one. I do think there should be atleast 2 because of the lag and crashing of the build servers like @xxMineSheepxx said though.

    I believe it is good the way it is now and we don't have to change it. EU afternoons and US times are the most active ones and bring a lot of players. ~25 players on each of the two and ~10 on the remaining Build server. Reducing from 3 to 2 isn't necessary though.
    Neither is merging, in my opinion.

    having 3 servers means the lagg is spread across them. so there is less chance of a shut down to prevent data loss.

    Ok, so I thought of something, but it would most likely require dev time.
    You have one Build server running, and have the other two offline. Then have a ping bot that checks every minute or so to see if that server is online. If the server goes down, the bot would boot up another Build server.

    I honestly don't see any benefit of this, only drawbacks. The ability to toggle off global chat is one of the most requested ideas for a reason, and the community isn't Build's strong point in a lot of situations. The downside is more lag, and that's a big downside. Unless we can somehow figure out and fix the lag issue Build currently has I don't see this being viable.

    what happens when some rpers decide to use like a redstone time machine and warp the server into non existence and the server is down for eternity


    anyway i'd rather have 1.12 than this lol

    nah the servers shouldn't even be ABLE to crash, idk i'm not an expert on minecraft server running but shouldn't there be more RAM allocated to the server?
