Yeah Asked on chat and everybody said the limit is now 50. Have to keep clicking search and adding the 50s together until you get to a number less than 50.
Did it on union earlier and numbers are defo way up now
I was busted
Zombie Man has a method for using /search to get numbers.
Search based on AT. If that caps at 50, search based on AT and origin.
Write down numbers that you get that are less than 50.
Add them all together.
Congratulations, you now have an approximately accurate estimate of server population, except that since you were measuring a moving target over a time period, there's some inaccuracy there, and you're only seeing people who aren't hidden from searches, so there's some more inaccuracy there, too.
But it's better than 'ZOMG, there R only 50 people on!!!1! Teh Serverz R dieing!!1!'

Now you can "cycle" the list. Like click searh button many times and get result like 50/50/35 and that means 135 names. If you look carefully the names changes too. So when old list was like not showing all the player names I think this one not filter names anymore.
