What is the best Rust server?

There is no single answer, so the page does not pick one. Ranked by players held over the last seven days, the top of this list shows the servers that stayed busy. If you know your style, start from a shorter list such as vanilla or 2x .

How do the charts rank servers?

Each server's player count is read every five minutes and averaged hour by hour. Rank compares those hours over the last seven days, so a server that fills for one evening after a wipe sits below one that stays busy all week. Sorting by players now gives a different order, and both are listed here.

How often does this list change?

Every five minutes. Servers come online, fill, empty and wipe, and the list follows that as it happens. A server's own page keeps the longer history, so you can see its line across past days before you join.

Why do some servers show resets rather than a last wipe?

Those servers make a fresh world every few hours, which counts as a reset, not a wipe. Aim-train, build and battlefield servers often work this way, because their map is not meant to last for days.

The line beside the players is each server's last 24 hours, hour by hour. Next wipe is an estimate (~) unless it is the force wipe (FW); hover a time for the reason.
