I agree with the ideas posted here in this thread. The test server is badly in need of attention.

The main things being a lack of sufficient people playing on the test server and also the lack of dev presence on the test server, as pointed out above.

I don't know what would attract more players to test. Perhaps a one or two week period when players could flag their characters for transfer to the test server.

Or perhaps some perks on the test server such as making the rent-a-flying mounts at the riftway stations 'no rent' instead of limiting them to 5 min. Or perhaps a dev or two hanging around who had the power, and inclination, to just occasionally give (*gasp*) players things like boats and houses to play with.

Anyway, they need to do something or they might as well just pull the plug and give up the idea of having a test server.
