On the wom list there has been two hawknet freebuilds for a while, but one was the current one and you could tell easily which one that was because the player count showed the number of players on however recently the player count for both says the max amount of players allowed are online even if only two people are on. This may not seem to be a big problem but it could result in a huge drop in new players. Which might be part of the reason classic is so empty all the time. I don't really know how you would fix this problem but I thoght I should bring it up.

Sincerly,

For me, it used to show 2 Hawknets. Now it only shows 1. I don't know what's the matter with it, but as Dmason is saying, that might be the reason we have small amount of players on Classic :/

One of them is WoM Direct, a property that allows you to add a flag and a description. The one with the flag and description is the one that doesn't work, because it works as a placeholder around the top of the list :3

That answers that part however two say that there always full for me even if noones on that is unless everyones sensing that I'm connecting and leaving in which case I am sad. however I doubt that is whats going on. Also today wom showed three hawknets. One had a flag and said only 5 were on.

HawkServ sends three heartbeats (For server lists) every 45 seconds. The first heartbeat goes to Minecraft.net, so it can appear in their official list. The second one goes to Hawkserv.co.uk, which is HawkServ's private website, so the server will be listed there too. The third one goes to direct.worldofminecraft.com which allows for the server to appear at the top of their server list.

If servers are appearing multiple times, that will depend on the owners of the server list. WoM pulls its own server list, and the Minecraft.net server list, and doesn't filter duplicate servers, so more than one will appear.

Unless a server is not sending heartbeats to Minecraft.net, it will always appear multiple times in the WoM server list. One at the top, with flags etc, and one more further down.
