I think we should try a fast respawn Turbine, maybe cut the respawn time in half 
This will probably get me in trouble for suggesting it lol

Your fired, just wait until the Turbine regulars figure out it was your idea in the first place.

I think I fall into that PM category (Sorry Garden
)Although I am happy it is changed back I am not against changing a server around to get a better ranking / perform better. This was a learning experience for me to say the least!

I'm happy with it either way, really. I do prefer a respawn penalty, though. Either way, it's still an eGO server, which makes it a cut above the rest. I'd also like to say: yay to no rotating maps!
I think it's a good choice, if the server rating went down then there's no reason to keep it in place in the vain hope that it will re-fill. i know many members posted about their concerns about insta-spawning on a small map, so I'm perfectly content to say it was a good choice!

Thank you! The numbers have spoken... I'm a regular visitor of Turbine again! I know tweaking must be done to get the best numbers to show eGO's impact, but this does make me happy for the fun of the game (must not just be only my opinion).

Thank you Garden! You've reset the balance haha. It'll be great for my stats too since I'm really good at it
ahhh sweet!
I can play my favorite server again! I had been waiting for baited breath waiting for the switch back.
As duck mentioned, if there were some changes to be made i would vote for a shorter 10 sec(ish) respawn time. But for such a small map that plays so fast anyway, keeping the stock 18 ish sec spawn is fine with me also.
Although i do want to ask whats the word on the map time. I had really liked the change to shorter map time, 70 or so min instead of the 500 min maps.
Again the map plays so quickly its not like other CP maps that often stalemate for hrs on end. The 500 min maps often have scores of 30v40 or similar. The shorter map lengths helped scramble teams more often and keep game play fresh. while fun to steam roll a team 4 or 5 games in a row, the loosing team probably doesn't think so. All that means is the loosing team leaves.

Maybe we should give fast respawn a try.

Yes I agree Drunken. Instant-Respawn seemed too quick but maybe a shorter respawn, lets say 10 seconds might be better. I'm still happy it's back to normal tho

I would love to see this. IR was too much; 18 seconds is too much. 10? 9? That would be a better fit, I think.
A lot of ppl I know complained about respawn time being wayyy too long. Maybe we can get respawn times to be similar to DoD or be around 5 seconds. I know every non-eGO server I went on has fast respawn (around 3 seconds). But I rarely leave eGO servers so I can't tell about servers, but all the ones I went on are fast respawn
