Empty Aus Rookie Servers

[hiraeth]

Do any of the Aus rookie friendly servers ever get players? I really want to get into this game but the ping on any server that actually has players is huuuuuuuge for me as I live in New Zealand and the good ping (for me) rookie friendly servers are all empty :(. Is it just bad timing or is it always like this?
I'm pretty new to the whole online multiplayer thing in general so any help is much appreciated :).

I think the primary problem lays in something relating to skill levels. What I am referring to is a radical skill discrepency.
When a 'rookie friendly' server has a few really excellent players in it, usually on the same team, the game is more of a steamroll and a lot of players lose interest in that sort of thing. The biggest source of uninstalling this game, I think, is likely a lack of ranked matchmaking, or at least some kind of time or skill based division.
If there were an abundance of rookie -ONLY- servers, say 50 hours and below, things would have probably been radically different right from the start of the game. Time based division may not be perfect.

Honestly, I can't think of many games that are this difficult and when a player gets fairly skilled in it, they are wildly better at it then newbies.

In other words, the learning curve is the steepest I have ever seen.
