My experience on the 81Dojo Chu-Shogi server is that it makes a huge difference for a lowly populated server if there is an automated opponent. I have operated a bot there for some time, and at days where I put it on-line there were usually 4-5 people on the server, one playing the bot, others watching that, and still others playing each other.

When I did not put the bot on, but just logged on myself in a mode where I could not be challenged for a game, the server was practically empty. I tried this many times, just to get an impression about what happened, and during the day many dozens of people logged on, saw that there was no opponent, and immediately left again.
