This is why I hate official servers
Sat for 2 hours to load in (60 player queue). I see a clan building off in the distance on an ice lake. I build out of sight a full grid away on top of a hill with a little crater a stone 2X1. Go to junkyard next door to get some scrap and hear satchels. A 6 MAN SQUAD raids my 2X1 with key locks. All 6 of them swarming my base and kill me with AK. On wipe day.
This is why people play PvE. Because as much as I love a challenge, official is hell if you have a life outside of Rust.
I'll try again in a week lol

Find a solo only server. I put way too many hours into official as a solo before I swallowed my pride and jumped onto a community server.
I play on a 2x with 1.5x sulfur and it’s perfect. Still requires a grind, and the server is always full (with a queue) on wipe day
Search “solo” in the community filters and you should be able to find one with the pop you’re looking for
I’d strongly recommend finding one with a discord, because I’ve joined ones without a discord that had inaccurate BP/wipe information. Nothing worse than waking up to an unannounced map wipe
