@Problem with the solution:
-Indies basically give the middle finger and leave because they can't get their cap. Server activity decreases, Disco is doomed.
We don't need these players, neither their "activity"
Moderation and restrictions make the gameplay competitive, thus spark an interest.
True fans of Disco and RP will remain here, and RP their characters no matter what.
Moreover - it is up to us to promote our server and lure people in.
We shall cut of the sore limb, no matter how painful it could be.
Not people, who are not interested in Roleplaying, is what we need, low gameplay quality upsets everyone less or more.
