Thank you, it'll be nice to have more NA options.

Well the unfortunate part is this server is still located in Chicago...

I know the NA servers are as well and I apologize so the coast people, I've been hosting my servers there for nearly a decade now.

But...

My servers are on an extremely fast pipeline, and when the CPU issue is sorted out that I people on the coasts should not see pings higher than 70's, but of course I cannot guarantee this, this is just from past experiences running CS and TF2 servers out of the same location.

As far as setting a ping restriction, I don't really want to make any changes to this server as we don't know why my server is working and NA servers are not, so I don't want to do anything that might create issues with the server running.

Right now it's battle, but like I said in the first post this will all be up to a vote once things calm down and go back to normal.

Just played a few rounds right now.  Pretty good.  A bit laggy at times, but otherwise is working as intended...  only stopped playing because I'm broke...   :cry:

Great server! It lagged a little a couple time, but otherwise it was fine.

There appears to be a password or something up right now. I can't join it. Perhaps it's in the process of being moved. Regardless, I should sleep  :shock:

That random guy is a goon

As saying I am a "goon" I assume you mean an LLJK member?

That I am not.....

I believe from what I have read in order to be an LLJK member you have to be a part of a web forum or something?  I am not a part of any web forum associated with the LLJK.  I have though talked to a few LLJK members who have shared their excitement for me running a server not associated with ATS.  I don't believe because you guys have a problem with them that I should not be allowed to talk to any of them...

..and because I have talked to some of them I do not think that makes me an LLJK member.  They are members of the community and from what I see will be the biggest users of my server so I will not ignore them.  Thats not to say I will cater to them either.  Rules on my server apply the same as they do on any other cRPG server.  No one but myself and chadz has admin or passwords to the server and it will remain that way for sometime until I can establish a trustworthy set of admins.

I also will not establish admins or associate myself with any groups that will cause any conflict within the community.  I am not paying for a dedicated server (which some of you know how expensive that is) just to have it run into the ground.  I am not interested in starting cross server battles and my server is not here to replace another.  Members of the community wanted another server for one reason for another, be it they don't get along with admins of another server or that the servers are constantly full and they need another server to fill demand.  I don't care what brings them to my server and they will not get any special treatment.  All I care as that everyone is having fun while playing on my server.

This is a game, so let's please not try to take it too serious, I spend my hard earned money to have fun and provide some entertainment to others free of cost.....

Also as stated in the original post the rubber-banding is because of a the server it's running on.  I did not know the M&B server was single threaded until I put some traffic to it.   This will be resolved today with the setup of the new box.  I would have preferred not to have the server up in this condition, but I figured for the better of the community it would be more advantageous to keep it up lagging than to not keep it up at all.

You have me curious now.  What hardware are you running now that is lagging, and what is the new hardware that is coming?

Post by: ScotTFO on January 06, 2011, 03:48:44 pm
You have me curious now.  What hardware are you running now that is lagging, and what is the new hardware that is coming?
The current setup is 2x 2.5GHz E5200.  Which alone would be enough to run a cRPG server.  I run a web based business though and it shares server with some pretty resource intensive SQL based sites so with the combined load and of that and M&B consuming 1 core the server just doesn't have enough resources.  The new setup that is being installed right now is 4 x 2.26GHz +HT XEON 5520.

I am confident this is WAY more power than my sql based sites and 2 cRPG servers could consume, and I only plan to run 1 server so it should be good.

Both servers are running 4 gigs but if the new one needs it I say a word and it'll be upgraded to 8.  Though neither my SQL services nor the M&B server are very memory hungry so CPU is the issue.

Thanks a lot for running this server!

Since it's in Chicago, I guess you are gonna see a lot of french prople in there since pretty much all Quebec is sitting on a direct line to Chicago.

That person is obviously confused about who I am or has me confused with someone else.  I do not nor have I ever had an account on that website.  I admit I tried to view it once when someone told me about it YEARS ago, but those forums move way too fast and are far too confusing for my simple mind.

Server limit has been increased to 120 for the time being so we can try to get more players in until NA servers are back up.  If the server has troubles with it I will have to step it back down a bit.

Back from Florida, sorry all for not being around for the last 2 1/2 weeks!

I promise to work on getting more maps and more active admins on the server in the next few days!
