Hi guys,
I've recently come back to ET and I'm sad that you and the [!!!] crew are the only ones keeping the great public etpro fun spirit alive. I've played ET for many years and I've played pretty much in every map that ever existed.
I really like your main server with the old style campaign with the default ET maps, however I find it a little boring to played oasis and goldrush and fueldump twice every time. Just a small complaint here
Now, the other server is always empty and it makes me sad because it has as much potential to be full as the other ones. I've entered once and the map was a supply depot with snow. Right there I realised that I'd hate to play that map and I guess every one else agrees.
I'm don't know what the map rotation is on that server, so I can't fully comment or understand why it is empty, but I'd like to make a map suggestion.
How about setting up a 10 or 8 map campaign starting with oasis, ending with goldrush and with radar somewhere in the middle. People in pubs like panzas, airstrikes and mortars so there you go with perfect maps for that. Then, you want to continue with that trend with maps that were always public favourites, so you put caen_4, supply, et_beach and venice. You can also throw some competitive maps like tc_base, sp_delivery_te, adlernest and bremen_final. And then somewhere in the middle you throw some less known, but good old ones that have all the qualities to be in a public server (room for 24 people, open spaces, cool objectives) like sos_secret_weapon or password2.
This way you're not just overlapping with the official maps campaign servers and the Hirnlos competition maps. It's a mix!
So, just for exercise sake, let's give it an example:
CAMPAIGN:
- Official map.
- Great open map.
- Competition map.
- Official map.
- Less known map.
- Fun map.
- Competition map.
- Official map.
So in practice:
Campaign 1:
- Oasis
- caen_4
- bremen_final
- Radar
- sos_secret_weapon
- et_beach
- sp_delivery_te
- Goldrush
Campaign 2:
- Oasis
- supply
- adlernest
- Radar
- password2
- venice
- tc_base
- Goldrush
I'm just giving my personal opinion and my view as to what could be a really fun public server. What do you guys think?
my 2 cents,

I'd rather get spammed by arty and panzer at dc2
could be worth a try.
