Add a rate my server section where people can post their ips and the community and go on it and rate it
That's more the job of a server list as it provides a larger targeted audience. This forum is a marketplace, a business site where trading occurs, of currencies, virtual currencies, physical, and digital goods.
Not needed. This is a marketing site not a place to show off your server. If you wanna "show off" your server do that on mcservers.org or Minecraft-more.com etc P.S you're welcome for the advertisement links.
Due to a majority of our community disagreeing with this suggestion, I've decided to go ahead and decline this suggestion. This is once again a marketplace and advertising servers should be the job of server lists. When implemented, you may use sidebar ad slots and possibly banners. You could also purchase signature slots from members or possibly even use your own.
