Us server isn't populated at all and a second EU server isn't a good idea when we can only fill half the current EU server at peak times.
We should close the US server and spend that money on getting us more devs. We can worry about a second server when we can at least fill the first one.
+ Support, remove the US server.

Dear all,
I am going to add to my last point in which I said no one uses it!
It is an amazing map so maybe if you get rid of the US server use the Florida map somewhere else, like in the normal server however I would imagine many would not be happy with this change as people have lots and lots of dupes that are big and changing the map might annoy some!
Thank you for reading this, have a wonderful day,

I disagree, we do not have the current numbers to split our servers in two.
Though I don't think giving up on US is necessary at this stage. As an alternative it would likely be worth exploring the possibility of reverting the US server to Rockford or similar.
The main issue is that Florida is not well known and just isn't a very popular map.

Perhaps if I say it enough it'll start to make sense to everyone.
Map =/= content
Map does not equal content.
Got it?
I have an analogy for our server:
The server is like a pallet of food for you, the player, to consume. The food in this case would be things like jobs, weed and meth system, player interaction, and more. The map, on the other hand, is the plate. You don't eat the plate, do you? The plate doesn't change how the food tastes, only may make it look a bit better based on one's opinion.
If we want our server to be better, we need to add more things for people to do (food on the plate in this anology). We need to do this because our map, our plate, is very empty.
Another map filled with the exact same stuff, or arguably less given that NOBODY plays on it, is only a waste. Use the money to pay a dev to make us something like a truck-driving minigame, a mining and crafting system, fix the meth system, nerf weed, make jobs like taxi driver not useless, and fill all the vacant buildings like Northern Steel with something fun.

Turn the US server into a general minigames server. This could include stuff like hide n seek, small combat things like ctf, some equivalent to Minecraft's TNT run etc. All of this could attract a wider playerbase, some of whom would enjoy RP too, and donations could give cosmetic perks to these people too. For example hats, inert SWEPs etc.
We can barely fill the main server?

Different audiences for mini games and rp, if we develop it right we can make a unique server which would be used more than a US server on the same mode
