Nico-Nazkar Posted December 15, 2009 Posted December 15, 2009 Hello, I think it will be better to put less bots on the server (25 bots can just be killed with air strike or arty) and it's too much when you want make the objective (i think 20 is good). Second thing : the panzer is unavailable. And third : why not put the server in the FA menus ? Quote
Nitrox* Posted December 15, 2009 Posted December 15, 2009 Yeah too many bots. Not a critic, but when I was running N!tmod on my old clan main server, we had way more visits than what the actual server has... :s I had a maximum of 8 bots on it, patched ET Multiversion, plus a soundpack with more than 130 vsays (and people didn't seem to be bothered by the fact of downloading the mod + the soundpack) So I also think that reducing the number of bots would help, and also patch it multiversion. About the menu, if needed i can add a FA N!tmod button on it, all i need is for you to ask me Quote
Administrators daredevil Posted December 17, 2009 Administrators Posted December 17, 2009 We would be removing that server since we are planning to move our forums to VPS which would be costing us 25-40$/month. People don't like to donate much and we have no money left in our pockets after paying 350$/month. Quote
Nitrox* Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 So no more FA N!tmod server ? Hm... that's a bit embarassing :s Maybe I can host one in France, either way I don't know what will happen to the mod. Quote
PHANTASM Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 I went on it once, I was the only human. Quote
Administrators daredevil Posted December 18, 2009 Administrators Posted December 18, 2009 We might also close Scrim server since they are hardly used and keep this open. Nothing yet decided. I will soon have a talk with leaders and see what we can do. Quote

I only donated $5 =_=....ebay was too tempting... Quote

I only donated $5 =_=....ebay was too tempting... I don't get one point. People always say they are shopping this and that but they don't seem to understand donating 20$ is not going to hurt them much. I mean common just think you purchased something for 20$ or you watched movie lol.. just saying in general I never got the idea.. We have also our lives and I personally hardly play. So, it doesn't makes sense to me much to keep using my money and time for things I hardly use anymore? I mean if the people playing itself don't want to donate for their fun then why we have to keep paying 300$/month when people can't donate 20-30$/year for their fun? Thanks for donating it's really appreciated. Quote

Nitrox* Posted December 19, 2009 Posted December 19, 2009 300$/month ? oO HOLY SH.. Man that's a way too much! You would rather get a dedicated server somewhere in the US and host everything on it, servers on the same IP with a different port (27960 27970 27980, etc...), redirect your domain names to this server, host ventrilo on it, etc... That is imo the best way to reduce your bills, and be TOTALLY independant, using iptables for subnet bans, and a lot of things that you can't do with a GSP. You could already reduce your bills from 300 to 100/150. I think you really need that. Quote

Hm... that's a bit embarassing :s Maybe I can host one in France, either way I don't know what will happen to the mod. No, n!tmod will stay but it will change location (usa to germany) to new place, in server already used for Christmas since Christmas mod was only for holidays, at the end of this month n!tmod will move there Quote
Administrators JoeDirt Posted December 20, 2009 Administrators Posted December 20, 2009 maybe we can get a free forums someone kick this nub for me plz, do you know how much bandwidth we use each month Quote

If you select dedicated box everything will be on one box and in the end if one goes down for some reason everything goes down. Also, people will not get less pings according to their location. More or less you will run out of BW if you host all server on one machine. Quote
