Server communities?

Purist?
Relaxed?
Hard Core?
Roleplaying?
Experimental?

Are these going to be different server types with different rule sets? Purist for the core Conan Exiles experience? Relaxed for PvE and reduced death penalties? Hard Core for the masochists who don't mind starting over when their character dies? What about Roleplaying and Experimental? Will Roleplaying be PvE or PvP or will there be versions of both? Experimental being a weird mishmash of different server settings from the other types?

Would say that would be up to the players and not the creators, they most likley make a pvp & pve option but that would be the basic at best, maybe roleplaying. Else you haft to find the player who has a server or make your own with rules applied to your liking.

Just going by the blog post on servers

http://blog.conanexiles.com/en/dev-blog-8-servers-mods/

It seems like the official servers will be created under these catagories however I am just wondering what it all means?

Well honestly it dose not mean much, by branding them like so you are only making new questions as above.

You only need 3 types that being PvP, PvE and Roleplay as roleplay is pretty much as hardcore you can get, as in pvp being hardcore is really just playing every waking hour you got to make someone else life miserable. People decide on PvE mainly as they don't want to be hardcore and this pretty much are the "relaxing" players and with roleplay you got the purist as well coming the same wagon.

And test servers are what you got the "Experimental" bit for. So why? If you want to try things on your servers do so, if people starts leaving you most likley did a bad call.

The settings will still be made by the players and the mentioned above are just words used to describe the 3 above in a questionable way to add confusion I guess. Rules will tell you what to do and not to do if you can't follow them you will be kicked anyways so the branding is just pointless. Three diffrent types, add rules you want for your server and the end, avoid adding more confusion with words to a thing that really should be simple as one two three.

Did you not read the dev blog? Unless I am mistaken these are the catagories for the official servers, not catagories I made up. I will probably not be making my own server and nor will I be telling others how to make their own server let alone which branding to fall under.

I did not create those labels, those are the server or community types listed in the dev blog for official servers, I am just wondering what they mean for players?
