Only 15 people have connected? or only 15 ppl max have been on at a time?

Get regulars, offer people to join your clan..Good pings help, good mapcycles count..Plugins that you run will help, but if you are planning to give people admin, I suggest not getting amx_super or UAIO..(ABUSE MAGNETS)..Put maps on your server like de_dust2 and de_rats(very popular on my server)..

Optimize your server:

If you are running your server thru steam, upgrade to HLDS.

The problem is that no one wants to join an empty server. If you can get three to four people in it, others will join because people are there. If no one joins it, they won't know that it exists.

hmm. I have added fakeclients.

@ SweatyBanana
Yes but it's an only dust2 server. Other maps are stupid on a dust2 only server.
