Why 12-19-05 private servers will lose interest

To everybody:

If you think you know enough about computers to set-up your own server. Go for it, i help you out on the questions & awnsers sticky!!!!

Let's say that you're a fool if this thread changed your mind, you know what happens when their are many gunz servers? MAIET will give up because they can't stand against us.

Then everybody will go play private. This means that the good servers will get populated and the sucky servers will have less population but no problem with MAIET.

Where im saying "good server" in the text above im talking about a server with the following points:
- Unique weapons, models, maps and game modes
- Anti-Hack system
- 24/7 online
- Low Pings //decrease the max population number might also work for the peaple that cant afford a $2000 server. (yes spending 200 will be enough to put like 1500 peaple on your server without server lag)
- And other great add-ons like a site, forums, etc

I think you forgot what the point of a game is, to have fun. And, at least in my opinion, playing in a community with laggy hackers, at least 90% of them, isn't fun. That's why i play private server gunz and personally i find it fun to figure up new stuff to do with maps and models and such. If you want to stick with maiet then go ahead and stick your nose halfway up their ass for all i care, just ask yourself while your smelling last nights lasagna, are you having fun?

@ bep
its people, not peaple..

but he's right. if there was just 1 server (like RepublicOfAstra's) MAIET can stop u but with more they cant

but there isnt thou lol, there's lots and lots now :P

Guys, he didn't start this thread to create conflict. You guys are just too fucking idiotic to have a good conversation about something without saying "stfu n00b".

I know him personally, he's NOT against pservers. He just wanted to have a good debate about it. But I can see now that RZ isn't the place to have a decent conversation about something.

-_-;

heh who says "stfu noob" here? thats totally wrong in my oppinion

ther r ppl who collect arguments, post them and then ur friend or wotever says its wrong...and well, if he got his illusions, we wont take them,(just speaking for myself) but every1, EVERYONE! has his oppinion and there is no need to discuss a thing witch is basically wrong >.>

I'm not trying to start an argument, create conflict, or destroy hopes. I love messing with my server XD. This is my view on the situation so if you're gonna flame, please back it up.

The reason I included this text was to assure others that it's not directed as an attack. Oh, and did I ever state that I was against private servers? Please someone quote me on that. Like RepublicOfAstra said, I posted this solely for friendly debate and discussion. Unfortunately, only about three of us here know what that implies.

I'm sorry, but I rarely saw any valid points that were backed up with evidence. I took a conservative stand stating that eventually the 12-19-05 version will lose interest, and in return I get ALMOST all flames with none of it backed up. I would respectfully(most cases >_>) respond and point out why, but because I prove(to an extent, of course) a valid argument, I get flamed again. I'm not saying I'm right, this is pure opinion. This is dealing with the future, so no one can prove this 100%. I wanted to see what others thought about this and the other sides' perspective.

I guess this is my fault posting here. I should have known the RZ community wasn't ready for "debate and discussion".

Don't judge the community on 4 people.

I connected to the July '06 MatchServer with a different runnable. I'm fairly sure the only thing it validates are the XMLs within the MatchServer folder, not the client itself.

Thats right! I notice it to, the way XML coded... :)
