I'm considering making a server since I think it would be an interesting experience. But I don't know what kind of server I would like to make. At one point I wanted to create an RPG server and at another point I wanted to create one based off of the anime Naruto. I'm not sure what direction I would like to go, so I was wondering if anyone had any good ideas for a type of server. I definitely don't want to make a mini-game server since that would require a lot of player slots and there are already so many out there. If anyone has any good ideas I encourage you to post them or you could elaborate on my two old ideas.
Thank you for taking the time to read this and post.

Well, I am a Dedicated Server owner myself! My server is sort of RPG, and I would recommend that, but if you arent up for that, just create a multipurpose server. possibly a plot server! but I encourage you to do what you can. my server is still getting a low playerbase at about a year so far, and its currently RPG. people dont really look for roleplay servers, so a Creative plots server would work. if you are running with Bukkit, be sure to get the latest WorldGuard so people cant grief! I really hope this helps!
So I've been looking for someone who wanted to create a new and unique RPG server for a while and i think i FINALLY found someone. As a little bit of a back story, I would spend endless hours on RPG servers but every single one had many problems that kind of ruined the experience. I've essentially learned what made the experience amazing and what ruined it. Over the past few days with a little help from my friends, I've compiled a list of all the amazing features the Roleplay servers had. I would love to see what you could come up with as far as making it into a server. So, of you are interested, I'll show you this concept we've been working on. I don't think you will be disappointed.
If you make a Creative server.. dont do plotme or plotsquared... unless you run multiverse or something else to offer other worlds.
Many players i have met that play on creative servers have said they get tired of the flat world buiilding.
Load up a custom landscape world from PMC. give peopel a reason to explore.
give the the option to go into survival if they want. for the fun of it. use GriefPrevention to allow players to protect builds.
if all else goes wrong, offer a server that showcases server based adventure maps and minigames for peoplet o enjoy.
Down a map from PMC or here., get permission from the map maker, and load it up and let peopel enjoy it without having to download.
Im currently featureing the Dropper and A PvP map by warfcat on my server. people love it!
Next month i'll be showcasing some Parkour and Mob Arena Mobs. Cant go wrong with it
Given how wanted the feature was years ago but never came to life, I'm surprised no one has made a mod where uoi can plop down a flag and it would mark off a radius around it where only you could build and no one else.
I would be FAR more inclined to partake in servers if such a mod existed.
