haha. alright… better games. yea thats it.
i rarely remember the server not being full 2 years ago… in fact, i remember having to wait to get in it even at noon. ask kuros… dave thomas, goat, brian… some of the older members even raine might have been around.
speak of what you know. when do you play source anways?
forums are for suggestions, i merely suggested changes… i didnt say the ban was silly. i said “this” is getting silly meaning banning chantz 3 times then having such disagreement over the ban from the admins, and the community (btw, if the community thinks he’s legit, isnt that the important thing…). if there is disagreement, then it shouldnt stand (but wait, thats logical).
this is getting silly. i’ve played here longer than most of the admins on the server… and it seems that good people get banned for doing good things. i havent seen the demo… i dont need to see the demo. i watch him play all the time after he kills me haha. headphones are a wonderful thing. put a nice set of headphones on and the game becomes soo much easier. ive watched a few people and thought they were suspicious, i remember watching sushi and being like what the hell, howd he know? even though i dont think sushi should have been banned, at least he was an erratic player. chantz is ALWAYS good. i know hes got a 3-1 chance of killing me and ive accepted that.
maybe you guys should to.
personally, i think the server needs to go back to how it was run 2 years ago or 8 months ago. either go with the rotation, take off some maps and keep it simple… or go back to voting and provide a lot of maps to choose from. the community is leaving… new people are coming, but i dont know if you’ve noticed… they are ALL under the age of 16. this is a server run by a college, when you push college kids away, it reflects on the server. its just not the same.
the team balancer is fine now. thanks liam, much appreciated
what percentage of people are we talking?
im just worried about it turning into dust2 everytime people dont like a map… i mean its only 20 minutes for most of the maps… and 10 for a few.
also, for maps like italy, everyone whose a ct is just going to vote to change the map. may not be a bad thing, but id rather just take the maps off the rotation that people dont like and try to replace them with more even/fun maps.
i dont think we need an rtv. thats my opinion… i feel that wed end up playing the same maps frequently… if were going to do that. then we might as well go back to map voting and not have a rotation.
i wasnt impressed.
check this map out its much better…
de_Paris_Opt
http://www.fpsbanana.com/maps/55725
and its a pretty popular map… you can probably find a server running it or de_paris
im not big on zombie. but as long as it doesnt interfere with the performance of the servers you already have, i dont see why not to add it. the more people in the community, the more recognition wcu gets, and thats good for the club.
buttt if it causes the other servers to have problems, than no.
personally i like the map. but everyone else seems to hate it. there are a lot of better custom maps out there though… if another custom map is going to be added we should go more into them.
check these out

those are two fun maps. i dont know if wcu is big enough for de_knight, but it would be fun to try… and the second one is an optimized version of an already very popular map on some servers.. could be cool to give these a go
in all honesty, i think the max should be around 20… i dont think it has anything to do with people catching up, but the point system should reflect a persons ability in the game not how long they play. this would give people like chantz and bloodlust a distinct advantage over people with kdr’s way below theirs.
also, i think it would be cool if you added a new way of getting points for successive kills. kind of like getting a bounty, but if you get 3 kills-1 point 5 kills-2 point 7 kills – 3 points and so on… of course without dying. im not sure if this could be done, but it would definately help the point systems ability to judge who is the best player.
take out deagleknivez, and i like it. personally id like to see inferno on there twice like dust2, but i dont know how thatd fly with everyone else…
also if you add nightfever, i feel like you should make the bomb timer longer (i dont know if you can do that for specific maps) but its a pretty big map and takes a while to rotate. it seems a little too easy for the T’s to plant and win.
a better map to add would be strata in my opinion. its a great custom map, and very well balanced.
strata was my favorite map when it was up for vote… i would LOVE to see it back in
russka is great too, a very fun map thats great for all kinds of strategies
port just isnt fun most of the time… havana clears servers because people hate that it changes from round to round. those two i would be against returning to the server.
but nuke was always a popular map, frankly i dont know why it came off…
train is fun, but it does clear the server, a lot of people just dont like how dark it is
i never liked strike. haha
i DEFINATELY think we need a different rotation though, im getting tired of dust2, and i dont see enough of other good maps like inferno. also, there are too many “fun” maps bunched close together…. having deagle5 and deagleknivez so close together with blitz, just tends to make a lot of people complain and ask for a map vote. i would suggest spreading all these maps out. i like them, dont take them out, but just spread them around in the rotation…
its not just this server, i lag on really any server over 24 people… 24 is pushing it for me haha. to be honest i wouldve liked to see the server go down to 22 or 20 not because of lag issues just because i think the maps are better designed for less players anyways (except for dust2, it can handle a lot of people). i tried reducing my settings (they are pretty much reduced all the way anyways) and i still get a steady choke in the 10-15 region (rates were fine)… that never happened to me before with only 24. if more people like it better with 28, then by all means keep it up, whatever makes the majority happy.. i just dont know if i can play on the server anymore with this lag issue
i got an idea, to keep people in, why not make the deagle point multiplier like .5 or .4… i think most people leave because of losing points… i stuck it out for a whole round and lost 9 positions and like 200 points haha
it would effect other maps though, the scout was reduced to a 1 for that reason a while back, and who likes to be one deaged from across the map anyways haha
played a whole round of d2 without it balancing and cts won almost every time. just thought id let you know, i dont know if maybe it was off at the time it was only a few minutes ago
was playing with yahoo and raine… the rotation played chateau for 40 minutes. i like chateau haha but 40 minutes is a long time. it reset the scores halfway through so i guess it just played chateau twice in a row.
contra was a popular map even when the server was thriving i think it should be added back to the rotation.
i wish people took the time to learn strata… its a great map. but i realize it kills the server
a suggestion… instead of having d2 rotate so many times, why dont you make it like d2 and inferno, or even chateau too… those maps always fill the server. and then people wont get tired of dust 2 as easily, just a thought.
