Its pretty hard, but there are some communities that have had thousands of players. The main problem is player retention and getting together a staff team.

Does the GMod community mainly consist of younger kids or is it a good average?

Hard to be sure, depends on gamemode. many people donthave mics, but most of those that do sound old enough though

A welcoming community,, good staff and lots of addons and things to do

non cancerous players make a great server that is what a server needs, non cancerous players.

My current ideas are to make an entire custom map (2 weeks in the making now) and hud, few addons etc this is all for a MilitaryRP designed server.

What are peoples thoughts on what makes a server good enough to stay around?

mine is the dankest, tbh. I like to play duck hunt with the players, let my admins fling 'em around, then shoot them out of the sky.

Enjoyable gameplay, friendly community, which likes to do RP things

A server that isn't pay to win, a server that isn't managed by 12 year olds, oh and a server that is actually balanced and fair

A server with custom things or new concept of gameplay. A server unique

Good development, care for player base, and a respectful staff. Including staff who understand what their doing know how to control people and especially now how to impair on people.
