Advertisements in the right place will surve a great purpose. Moderation is always good.
The seperation of irc servers doesn’t seem to be working very well. Besides 1/2 of us just are not going to change irc servers. I dont want to be connect to 2 servers. Shouldn’t bother you that much you. Either way you look at it. They know where you are “support” if they can get to it. They also know where to idle for community, where the rest of us are. If they need help, ill send them to the website. If they get frustrated, because they only know how to connect to gamesurge because their friend helped them like 80% of irc clients then ill send them to the forums. The gamesurge network is community for now unless you guys decide to come back.
Dont waste too much money in advertisements on one highschool. Your really looking for gamers, they will be online all night and sleep walking in school. They put the “One Of Ours” flyers of Ashley at Triton, but my brothers didn’t see it. I mean those are huge! I would attempt on spending time in gamesurge and spaming some chan’s. Or website advertisements. Talk to the people who make the schools website and work out something so that they will advertise your servers. Local NC highschools will work with you. They did it for the Nexus. Just advertise in the right place and where they are going to look is all I am suggesting.
The Rcon to my knowledge is known by, Raven, Gxti, Split, Tyler, David, and now yourself. It has never been hacked and .. you really dont have to have one. just use the consoles of the games. People who have rcon will have access to that anyway, other then the Council Leaders.
I dont mind some of the changes that you guys made in the past, like the front page change from the theme Raven and I created to the faster loading one. I think it is missing some things, but thats my opinion and i can live with it. But things like the IRC server, arguing about permissions on the forums(telling me i have no right to put them back bla bla bla) and taking down the COD2 server. Which was the second most popular server we have had. Even if our current students didn’t play on it (they are the ones who asked for it) I still think that it would be a great advertisement for the Gaming Club. I remember it was ranked 10 -18 or so .. the cs server only got to 300 or so, on the most popular played gaming server on the entire gaming network. I never dreamed of having 3 counter strike servers. Tyler went crazy when I told him we wanted to run CSS and CS1.6 on the same network. He just thought it was crazy being the same game and all. Now we have 4 counter strike servers. Jez…. (Not saying that it is bad)
All of this is just MY way of thinking of things.
i did not do spell check .. dont see the point
