It'll never make it. I enjoyed playing cop there trying to fix the problem and there's no way I want it to stick around in the state it was in. The problems it had at launch, combined with FPS problems experienced by some people turned it in to a farm-only server, which won't just change magically overnight.
I think at least for now, a resurgence of the server would only be met with the same stigma from half the community, they wouldn't play on it because of that predisposition, and it would end up right back in the same spot again.
