Tears of Destiny for Shik's admin pick?

I would be willing.
I never ab00zed before, nor did I have any complaints.
I'm not normal and I don't pretend so, my approach is pretty much a bomb crescendo.
Death is a fun way to pass the time though, several little bullets moving in staccato.
The terror of my reign will live on in infamy, singing when they die like a dead man's symphony.

I think only So Nyuh Shi Dae members should be admins on that server as they are the most neutral faction out there.  How can you not trust singing asian girls?

That is a map of America. There are players from all over America! there are also players from Canada, most of which who live near the US border! To be nice and fair to everyone, why not have a server in or around the middle of America instead of far east or far south? is all of central America full of fail internet? are there no decent hosts there?

chadz directly saying it will be his hand picked staff, not Classical running things. How much clearer do you want it to be? If Classical did anything even remotely sketchy, the plug would be pulled instantly and fixed by chadz and his crew. Can you really not see this, or are you too busy blindly listening to Ecko?

If he is the one directly paying for the server, not just giving chadz the money, but paying the server company directly then he has full access and control.  Doesn't matter what chadz and crew do, or put as admins, the guy that actually pays the fucking company directly has full access and control of the server at all times.

Why is THIS PART so hard for you and Tears to understand.  Nowhere in the post did he say that "Hey guys, I'm just going to be sending chadz money.  IE:  Donating."  Which wouldn't even require a post btw.  He said "Hey guys, I'm buying a server but I'm going to give chadz and crew access and admin and say that they're the ones 'running' it."  There's a huge difference.
And I should be nice or polite to anyone.... why exactly?

You know, if he fucks with chadz he can just disconnect him from DB, then he can pay dollars for a server noone will play on, if he wants.

Weather forecast for hell right now must be pretty chilly, because I find myself actually agreeing with you for once, Gorath.

And this is why I am still happy-go-lucky about it all.

If this was Hellowrold then yeah I can understand an instant "GTFO" mentality, but this is Classical... He did an extremely stupid thing that was fixed in less then 12 hours... no lasting damage (unlike the hacking which delayed Strat by 60 work hours as well as still having to replace missing items to this day so-on so-forth).

Just... Relax...

It's all good...

Don't get me wrong, I'm absolutely all for having official NA servers (and strat) run by the dev team only and not a clan (any clan).  However the only way this will really happen is also the easiest way to make it happen:  Add a "Donate for NA server" button on the page like you have for the EU servers.  That way we, the NA community, can send you money to run an official NA server that is absolutely untainted by anyone elses hands (especially a goon's).

Tears:
Sure I'll accept that I'm biased because I'm not a fan of the goons, I'm vocal about it, and I'm still trying to get shit fixed from them deleting my character's and fucking up my account (it's still not even close to fixed).  Yup, I'm still a bit miffed about it.  That doesn't make my point any less logical though because I'd say the same thing about the post being made by a member of the OTHER clan that was caught hacking accounts.

Shit, 22nd abused server shit and were blacklisted for ages.  Yet the goons are getting access to the "official" server box after all the shit they've pulled both here and every other game they've ever touched?  It's just a silly decision.
And I should be nice or polite to anyone.... why exactly?

It wasn't anything as petty as that, 22nd's lead admin abused DB access to cheat at the game. That's a whole different animal, and it's also the reason nobody except chadz has been allowed any kind of DB write access since then. I don't remember all the details of the server blacklisting thing, but I think the game worked pretty differently back then, and there was some weightier reason for it. Bottom line was that since Vincenzo ran (and still runs, I think) all of 22nd's servers fully, 22nd wouldn't be given servers. Again, Zealot won't run these servers.

Sure.  He'll just own them, which gives him full access to them to do anything he pleases.  Complete security.....   :rolleyes:

This is exactly what I was saying earlier today.  Wake up people.  chadz is going to give the only NA strat server into the hands of a goon (with a poor record of behavior at that) to do whatever he wants.

How do you know he will allow that?
