for people who have a lot of experience on the server the player count dosen't matter as much, its more problematic for new players to start out in a server. It's gonna be harder for them to build relations, get to know stuff when theres 30 people on the server and when theres 65 or when theres 100 in peak times and when theres 200+. and not everyone is able to play when the server reaches peak numbers. I know back when i was playing and there was over 200 people on peak and over 60 in the morning, it was really easy for me to ask someone how to start out, where to go or whatever. You as a cop you log in go on duty and you have something to do, every once in a while something happens. Criminals can cook drugs and do other stuff aswell but what made the server better back then was that you didn't have to be a cop or a criminal to engage in RP with other players, there used to be a lot of people at freelance jobs, mechanics, DOC, pier etc.
