Mmm this is not necessarily good news. First of all the server has been suffering from lags recently, and I fear that increasing the number of players may make it worse. The other issue is that games with such a large amount of players on each side tend to reward chance/luck more than skill, and force players to play very cautiously (sniping, camping, etc.) which is not all that fun IMHO. Already 15 a side would get very messy sometimes, so with up to 19 players on each side this will probably get even messier.

But hey it's your server :)

Yeah I don't even like to play on it much when it's full at 30, so 36 is definitely not going to be for me.

just so u all know , the uppage of server slots is not a permanent fixture
and judging by the ammount of choke points created by the extra players over the last few days it is likely to be put back to 32 , in a few more days i will run a poll on it

why not just make those 6 extra slots into private slots?
I rode a tank and held a generals rank,
When the blitzkrieg raged and the bodies stank.
I shouted out 'Who killed the Kennedys?'
When after all it was you and me.
Let me please introduce myself, Im a man of wealth and taste.
And I laid traps for troubadours who get killed before they reached bombay.
Pleased to meet you hope you guessed my name.
But whats puzzling you is the nature of my game.
