KeymasterGo and live in Greece for six months, then meet some gulible guy who’ll off load a great pc to you for 200 quid 🙂
Apart from that, build your own mate. If you could do it before you can do it now, it’s apparently easier nowadays anyway, so much so I can maybe even do it.

KeymasterAndy expect a lot of questions about how to do stuff, as I want to make changes, but thanks for putting it back there for the time being 🙂
One thing I should know before taking it any further though, if we include php modules as we did a year ago, are they a potential security risk to our host, or just the site? And either way, how should we go about keeping backups?

Speaking of them, where the fuck is axile these days?

Keymasterthat really does seem like a stupid question since you seem to have an uptodate sig already.
Have a look in user control panel, normally top right of your screen, possibly only from the main index page but not sure. From there, click profile, and then edit sig. To have a sig, first type the password “max is an idiot” in the white box, then whatever you want.
If you can’t see that, try chanting “max is a blind idiot”, and it should appear.

KeymasterMoral of the story, don’t talk to max 😛

KeymasterHe does sadly, but I am of course well aware of the fact.
Thing is I want to do this, but beforehand I want to know what real support there is within our current ranks, and recruit accordingly.

Keymasteri threw it up when our front page was so far out of date it was a joke, and we have only been waiting a year for someone to make a new one
I know that feeling. I had our website in the stone ages for years before Magicker came along 🙂 Think I did ok for no training though! Well maybe just ok 😉

KeymasterI’d like a shout box type thing on the frontpage of the site but not sure how this particular one would fit in. There’s an issue of security as I think that’s how we were hacked last year, but I don’t really know or care a big lot (since we’re now on a neutral server). Keep looking though, php apps are what I’m on the look out for too, especially the kind that fit on a frontpage.

KeymasterHas yours always been on 5 seconds gonzo? Last week I was playing late into a drunken night on your server and we all got stuck on well, despite my team domintating 👿 . I’m not exaggerating here, we played 5 solid hours, at least, before someone won a round (full server too), after that things got better and we reached the 4 win limit after another hour (even though I sat out quite a few rounds chatting with mates, I still got over 400 score, that’s how long it was). I thought it was instant spawn times, and I’m sure that (or at least quick spawning) was the cause of the problem. If you get a half decent team you’ll always have this problem with quick spawn times, so I agree with CH, lets increase ours a bit.

Original post has reply from me saying I turned the servers off for nearly a full day.. so should show up if true.. I shall do again now though
So it’s a problem with the hosts then? 1 month left on the contract I believe so might be a good time to complain.

KeymasterI’ve tried to play on it, but first I’m not sure whether it shows up on the ingame browser and my efforts, so far, have been by myself anyway.
No matter the game, we tend to drift to other servers when we’re the first online, and this propogates. In TF2 for example, we can see when others join games or come online, and this helps fill the server, but can this be done with COD? We’re not quite there yet for fully supporting our own server in TF2, but tonight was a good example of us working well together for it (it was active from 6pm to 2am). Still that wouldn’t have happened had it not been for msn and steam. How do we work the same for COD is the question?

KeymasterAlthough the most action goes on here in the forums I’d still prefer we had a website to go along with it all. I’m prepared to help with it’s setup, and I have a few ideas now it’s off your server and we can risk a few things.
Initially I’ll need some help though.
Alzir
KeymasterLike any server it needs at least two people on it to start it up. What’s wrong with a few 1v1’s before a night’s killing starts 🙂
It’s all about where we get the first two people though, what do we use? TS, MSN, XFIRE etc etc???
🙂
Defintateley though, our severs need action and we’re doing fuck all about it at the moment!! Come on!! :inspirational smilie:Alzir
KeymasterPart of this will definately involve helping our server become more active, and great effort tonight lads. I was only on early days before the football (fuck off insane) but we filled the server really quick tonight and it was going until 2am (I saw but wasn’t involved). I know it’s still the holiday season but lets keep it up, the more of us who can help the better.
Alzir
Keymasterlets use it then.
We do need a better way of keeping track of each other though. I get the impression that even the cod server suffers from the old, “everyone’s somewhere else syndrome” 🙁
