Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about ASA Server List
Q:What is ASA Server List?
ASA Server List is a comprehensive directory and ranking platform for ARK: Survival Ascended servers. We help players discover new servers and server owners grow their communities through our voting and ranking system.
Q:How do I add my server to the list?
Simply create an account, navigate to the "Add Server" page, and fill out the form with your server details including IP address, port, and description. Once submitted, your server will appear on the list and start receiving votes.
Q:How does the voting system work?
Players can vote for their favorite servers once every 24 hours. Each vote increases the server's ranking and helps it appear higher in search results. Server owners can configure in-game rewards that players receive when they vote.
Q:How do voting rewards work?
Server owners can set up automatic reward delivery through RCON integration. When a player votes, they can receive in-game items, currency, or other rewards directly on the server. The rewards are configured by each server owner individually.
Q:What information is displayed for each server?
Each server listing shows real-time information including player count, server status (online/offline), map, rates, mods, description, and voting statistics. We also display server rules, connection information, and Discord links if provided.
Q:How often is server information updated?
Server status and player counts are updated in real-time using the GameDig query system. This ensures you always see accurate, up-to-date information about each server before you join.
Q:Can I search for specific types of servers?
Yes! You can search and filter servers by name, map, game mode (PvP/PvE), mods, player count, and other criteria. Use the search bar and filters on the homepage to find exactly what you're looking for.
Q:Is ASA Server List free to use?
Yes, ASA Server List is completely free for both players and server owners. We believe in supporting the ARK: Survival Ascended community without barriers.
Q:How can I edit my server information?
Log into your account and visit your dashboard. From there, you can access all your listed servers and edit their information, including description, rates, mods, and other details. Changes take effect immediately.
Q:What is RCON and do I need it?
RCON (Remote Console) is a protocol that allows ASA Server List to communicate with your game server to deliver voting rewards automatically. While not required to list your server, it is needed if you want to provide in-game rewards for voters.
Q:How do I set up RCON for my server?
Enable RCON in your server configuration files, set a secure password, and then enter your RCON credentials in your server dashboard on ASA Server List. Make sure to use a strong password and keep it secure.
Q:Can I have multiple servers listed?
Yes! You can list as many servers as you want under a single account. Each server will have its own page, voting statistics, and configuration options.
Q:What should I do if my server shows as offline?
First, verify your server is actually online and accessible. Check that the IP address and query port are correct in your server settings. The query port is usually your game port + 1. If everything is correct and it still shows offline, contact support.
Q:How are servers ranked?
Servers are ranked based on multiple factors including total votes, recent vote activity, player count, uptime, and community engagement. The algorithm is designed to promote active, popular servers while giving newer servers a fair chance.
Q:Can I delete my server listing?
Yes, you can delete your server listing at any time from your dashboard. This action is permanent and will remove all associated data including vote history.
Q:How do I report inappropriate content or servers?
If you encounter a server with inappropriate content, misleading information, or violations of our terms of service, please contact us immediately. We take reports seriously and will investigate promptly.
Q:Can I advertise my server elsewhere?
Absolutely! We encourage server owners to share their server listing page on social media, Discord, forums, and other platforms. Each server has a unique URL you can share.
Q:What happens if I forget my password?
Use the password reset option on the login page. Enter your email address and we will send you instructions to reset your password securely.
Q:Do you have an API for developers?
Yes! We provide a public API that developers can use to access server data programmatically. Visit our API documentation page for detailed information on endpoints and usage.
