Can the slots in RPUK be increased?

In Arma overall servers have a different number of slots KOTH servers are 90 slots most of the RP servers are 130. But can this be increased? @DCC Gordon showed us a graph of how apparently RPUK is at its most popular moment currently. my question is how easy is it to increase the servers slots overall since there is a French RP server that has 210 slots. Also due to the fact that Gordon showed us the graph of how RPUK is at its peak why don't we increase the amount of slots then?

 
Been There done that. Didnt turn out well, lagged a ton, not again plz until all creases are well and truly ironed out and then ironed again

 
Is it physically possible? Yes.

Is it likely to cause more issues than it would be worth? Also yes.

While it'd be lovely in theory, it's just not really overly viable. Arma isn't optimized to deal with that many players at once.

 
Yet why not though is it due to the lag? If that's the case then how come other RP servers that have twice the amount of players don't lag?

 
Entirely different code, different devs, different settings... different servers... different network ... different temperature in the hosting location.... different server technicians.... different food being consumed by the server technicians 

210 slots... might have edited their server.exe and discovered something other servers haven't ... doubt it will be shared! I know a german server did that and it became there biggest secret and rightly so.

Who knows.... 130 is enough though

Must be the baguettes then decreasing their ping

 
In the summer the slots were increased to 160 (i think) and that increased the amount of desync by mad amounts

@Bobby the Sock S2 & S3 are still with us... however there isn't a demand currently

When S1 is at 130... If S2 was to come online it would barely go past 10-20 players at a push, It would be farming central which isn't a good RP experience for the majority.

I don’t understand why the issue of this still. People still do what they may be planning on doing on server 1, and 10-20 people is the same number of people online from around early morning to 10-midday depending on the day & if it is a holiday etc. The server is up then still so what’s the issue with having the option of server 2 if it is still going to get traffic similar to that of in the mornings
