I suspect that the “lone survivor” will just be a machine, maintained only so far as absolutely necessary and never tinkered with because that owner will (rightly, wrongly, or otherwise) believe they have “perfected” the game, and even then mainly because THEY want to play… They really won’t care who comes, if anyone, but will leave the door open “just in case.” (Kinda like opening a restaurant because you like food, and “miraculously” having a day job that keeps the doors open, even without customers.)

No, moreso not having the know-how or the time to start active development.
Like I said in a PM to you; getting a player base for a server such as this is really quite simple. A good playerbase could easily be formed just by getting in touch with the top fallout fan pages on facebook; and asking them to make a post announcing the server and how to get in.
As some have already said, 99% of the fallout fans have no clue this even exists. I have friends who are very avid f1&2 fans, who still put hours into the games; that have no clue that the fonline engine even exists. The only way I found it was by reading a gaming blog; and I had searched endlessly for Fallout Online servers, in hopes of finding a Fallout 3 online api.
As for some other improvements we plan to do on the engine (Haven't looked into if these are already in it) is Mysql integration so that we could easily communicate with the outside world. I know your thinking we plan on getting a webstore for the server just by reading that; but that is not the case. We would stick closely to how the other communities pay for the server hosting; through donations. This is mainly because we don't want Bethesda to get upset, as I'm sure the reasoning is for the system here; however we do have servers in other games where donations come in too; so it'll be much easier for us to pay the bill. The reason we are doing mysql integration is because we want our players to easily be able to access their character information; to perhaps show off on their forum signature, on or off our site. It also makes things much more easy on our dev & administration team; our cross game system.
As I posted in the other thread in suggestions; if there are any devs that want to work on Fonline; but havent the money to host a Dedi, your more than welcome to join our team once we get started! The offer also goes out to all current GMs of 2238; if you guys aren't working on other things, and if the 2238 administration team dosent have future projects planned that having you on our team would cut into what their doing. Just send me a PM, and I'll let you know more on what were doing.

Spiritwind you are speaking the truth but I'm afraid to inform you that you are wasting your time here.

Those are called over-exaggerations.
