just looking round this website and found the official numbers for each server:

CLASSIC=1775 players
http://statistics.graal.us/server/show/1216

ERA=1319 players
http://statistics.graal.us/server/show/1416

And so classic is still winning against era in player count  

iClassic reached their record in october 2010. Its been slowly declining (and flatlined) since. Iera reached that record this easter, and it is slowly rising. And actually, iclassic has less players on at any given time when it comes to active players, as when the afkers are kicked iera allways has more players.  

classic has 1200 or Something right now, and era has 800, surely 400 players can't afk :0

Take a stroll through graal city and come back to me  

There was 1400 people on Classic last night. I'd hardly consider that decreasing.  

atleast era doesn't stand there saying "Rate gp" "Have kik?" "read status" "rp anyone?" all day long

That's really irrelevant, and a lot of people on Classic don't do that either.

Like i said, it has flat lined for a while. It averaged around 1600 in the fall of 2010.  

on era there's alot of afk people at start and people saying "rate gp" and "do you have kik?"  

I remember when iEra peaked, I think it was 1-2 weeks ago, during the spring break.

I went online on my old iPod, my 4G iPod, and my iPad during that haha.

I do remember more times with iEra having more players than iClassic. Mostly in the morning / at lunchtime here in germany.

Actually I've seen a few times where iEra had more on, but that's beside the point. It shouldn't really matter which server has more players; they're both good servers and technically they're both the same game so there is no need for us all to argue over which one is better :d
