Most many us , use adblock , i know its source income to server bills , but hello? its take up around 40% you screen
So why not remove this ads , and move to subsection if goal its people can have indirect help in paying bills , since guys cant take direct donation
its for sure can help improve influx new players
Idk exact deals you have with gamesworkshop , maybe you cant accepty direct donation , but you still can put in ads page some goal target to pay server bills and explained that each refresh in ads page generate y value , maybe can e win win , since you not going scare new players , and veteran players and supportive players like me can indirect help

2 - Overall analytics information
Many peoples come and see 500-600 player online in off times and dont even want login or try , eden daoc did something find cool way to show up activity in servers
Retribution guys did very nice tool as well
Imagine this information is delivery hour and hour in discord and website? its can help or screw for once balance between realms and make game fun to everyone?
3 - Discord integration
You can join in warbands , just clicking in discord
You can see swaps of BO in realtime to , maybe be cool idea to promote pvp you trow some estimate number
AI chat bot? ok just trow somes
And i Even go more , i true recomend also transfer alot killboard information to discord , special Scenarios pop and finish its be usefull alot
Why? most people logoff when dont see public warband , and its happen kind often , so if this people go to scenario , stay in game is create good feedback loop , same to peoples on scenarios see good figths in rvr , also its positivy feedback that help alot
4 - Realm Loyal , yep its one idea i see from again Eden Daoc and can be nice solution for xrealm problem beyond increase timers or do hardlock or hardware id lock
Spoiler:
Realm Loyalty
How it works
Building realm loyalty takes time and commitment. It favors those who consistently remain loyal to a single realm over a long period of time. It requires action. Fighting for your realm in the frontiers builds loyalty, but be careful, betraying your realm will have consequences.
0 to 100
The realm loyalty system is based on a 0 to 100 point scale. Points are accrued or lost based on daily action. There are milestone rewards such as 25 loyalty points to unlock a skin or 100 to unlock an ability; and then there are scaling rewards, for example simply having 18 loyalty points will give you 18% of the maximum reward.
Earning Points
Obtain 500 rps, within a 24 hour period, in the frontiers, to earn 1 point for that realm. This will also decrease your loyalty to each of the other realms by -4.
Capture a relic and earn an additional 1 point for that realm. You cannot earn more than 1 point per day from relic capping.
Loyalty cannot go below 0.
Example: You earn 500 RPs on Mid in the frontiers, then you switch and earn 500 RPs on Hib in the frontiers. You were not very loyal that day!
500 RPs on Mid = +1 Mid, -4 Hib, -4 Alb
500 RPs on Hib = -4 Mid, +1 Hib, -4 Alb
Total that Day = -3 Mid, -3 Hib, -8 Alb
This means that it will take roughly 100 days of continuous support before achieving the max reward. A true testament to one’s loyalty. Players can still choose to switch realms, but if you help one realm in the frontiers, it will significantly reduce your loyalty on the opposing 2 realms!
The Rewards
Milestone rewards at 25, 50, 75, 100 realm loyalty - including but not limited to
Titles
Realm cloak
Reskins including a full realm specific armor reskin called "good" armor
Scaling XP bonus - max 50% (stacks when grouped up to 200%). This means 1 realm loyalty point = 0.5% xp. For example, your group has a total of 400 realm loyalty therefore has 200% bonus xp.
Scaling crafting speed bonus - max 50%
Scaling repair bonus - max 100%
Scaling currency bonus - max 25%
Max realm loyalty characters will be denoted in the /who command

I leave in spoiler , since its direct copy and paste
5 - Herald..... and Warmap its other idea come from Daoc servers , its not exact going be heavy ifluence but know fews stats from server can be helpfull to not only balance team but to players as well , and also in debug
We can add Kill damage , DB , Healing to RVR and do with Scenario as well , goal here not flood with good rewards but little extra for good or grind players
