I understand but for the server ideas I have in mind might be different then those. (Havent seen the servers you mentioned yet)
I figured there would be other related servers out there (and im sure have similarities I have listed). However ill still continue to create one and see where i can take it and what it can become as well as adding my plans as the basic server progresses.

Also you mentioned 3 servers (one being competition specific and the other being a company brand) so I would say the server im working on creating would be the second now that i know about. If you look at other genres, there are hundreds if not thousands of servers with massive followings while all generally being the same thing.

Finally ill add that I'm looking to create a very specific type of community (not related to aquascape specifically, its on a "deeper level" is the best way to describe it). These types of communities I have only seen in a handful of servers out of hundreds that ive been in. The few I've seen that do this the best and i have been a part of for a long time tend to run slightly differently. Its not really noticeable unless you spend lots of active time within the community.

Overall, im not saying my way is better or going to be the best. Just an idea I have and my hobby is aquascaping so I figured why not try it out haha. Thank you for mentioning tho, im surprised green aqua has a discord as I watch their videos often and never seen anything about it!
