I'm guessing you didn't want to follow Two's example of announcing a server way before release. ( not flaming, he's admitted that was a mistake )
But to just open a topic on ko4life the day of your BETA, then only having that run for a few days is very silly in my opinion, you will not get nearly enough support in those few days, and that's without the bad timing of the opening. This is the kind of server you could start a week, even a month late and not be HUGELY disadvantaged, but still, people are gonna see it's a farm server, see that they're late and not bother with it.
My opinion is that BETA should be up for at least 1.5 weeks, when in that time you work on advertising it. I'm sure a lot of people would gladly help with advertising it, you guys are well known so a lot of the English population would come, but without Turks and the newer players it would be dead, you need someone you trust to be able to advertise on the big Turkish forums. ( There's quite a few, and some of them get thousands of hits in a topic a day, that is where you get your numbers up )
With the hard exp and farm rates, this server is only going to truly work if you can get at least 300 people online at a time, and even though it is the first day, you have about 40. :/
Server looks great by the way, I just feel you should delay release date to gain players and support. There is nothing better then racing to the Cardinal or AK spots on a new server with like 200-300 other people, raids in paper armor and such.
