N/U will be downsizing its server list by a few servers and all servers will have new IP's.

the servers that will be going offline are going to be:

zombiemod
deathmatch
tf2
all cod4 servers
teamspeak

CAL teams will now have to pay for thier own servers and vent. Hlstats may not be used on the new setup due to money issues and we will have to use either the free version or find another ranking system for the servers. any extra's we do for advertising that costed N/U money will no longer be paid and closed out.

let me hear your thoughts on this as this is not the route we wanted to take, but have to.... unless someone has some ideas to be explored before the 25th of this month.

thanks

if this is what we have to do to even think about keeping the community alive then this is what we should do. not exactly my favorite idea as i'm sure others would agree, but it is probably the best decision.



oh and as for the cal teams, i have already talked to some of the other guys about it sio, so no worries.

We will keep the base of our community with these fewer servers. This is just a hitch in the road. the economy isn't doing well, some of our admins are in transition in their lives, and we're in the middle of needing more admins at the moment. The community will rise again. We have loyal regs, and we have a great group of admins and we need to expand the admin base to get more donations.

N/U will survive!

next saturday you will notice servers going offline for an hour each. that is so i can backup each server completely as it sits right now.

Nat make no more chages to any of the servers unless told other wise

Dam son I guess my 1 dollar donation didn't go that far. Do you really have to change the office IP? I remember when you changed the dust 2 IP a while ago, that shit still doesn't seem to have the same amount of people it used to have before the change. Also I don't play there that much though so everyone probably left cause they missed me kekekeke. :(

well im not exactly sure of what to say right at the moment. i do understand down sizing may be the best thing at the moment. but im not sure if i speck for just me or for alot of others as well, but i kindda would like to know the issues thats at hand other then money shortage.

well donkey, besides money issues, we have lost alot of people due to lies and cant fill the servers any more. no use wasting money on something thats not used.

i agree, why keep paying for empty servers, pointless..
i'm thinking you backign up all the server data is causign the lag on the servers yes?
its ok, im just curious if thats whats up.

siosios
08-17-2008, 02:44 PM
no the lag is being caused by someone using a non blocked sv cmd in an alias, once again the incompetance of valve strikes again.

If Zombie goes then I don't have much left here... N/U doesn't have any other servers with custom maps except GG and DM, but DM will be gone too, and I'm not a huge fan of GG. :(

how bout we make a zombie/gg hybrid mod, as you kill zombies your guns get better and better. actually although i wasnt being serious the idea sounds like it could be quite phenomenal!

Jackd
08-17-2008, 03:32 PM
I don't know much about how the servers work, but I'm going to ask anyway.

Why get rid of DM and ZM and not Office Unlimited and Dust2 Unlimited??

I never see anyone ever in Dust2 Unlimited and I know Office Unlimtied was once very popular but not these days.

I hope my question is not out of line.

Just wondering :)

Thanks.

Natalya

IMO, ditching Office Unlimited is out of the question. N/U started there. If it weren't for that server there wouldn't be a N/U!!

But no if Sios has to kill ZM, then he has to kill ZM. It's not as popular as GG or the other servers, and so it shouldn't live.

actually, DM has been packed every time i've joined. At least, it's packed at the later hours (and stays full).

That sucks that it's gotta go...

Sounds like a good idea but we have to find a good way to let everyone know what the new ips will be. I would hate for us to switch and a ton of folks not know where servers went as its gone in favorite list and we lose a ton of people. Good idea to do but we need to let everyone in NU know about new ips. The new ips really has me worried. I trust sio and pasties etc have a really good idea to make the transition work or this could have some major negative consequences to NU.

it may take just a few people joining and others seeing on their steam friends that they are in the server, but have faith in the owners.

Wow damn, this sucks big hourse balls... (i was going to say donkey balls, but then I remembered we have a donkey in this community :P )

Though I didnt play on any of the servers that much, I sometimes enjoyed owning enderless and clay in DM server... shame it has to go. But if you cant afford it you cant afford it... I learned that the hard way :(

enderless
08-17-2008, 05:53 PM
If by "owning" you mean getting clay and my gun barrels shoved up your ass (respectively).

I'm glad you enjoyed it. :)

I'm going to miss DM, but what ever keeps N/U alive I'm down with it. Just wondering, will DM admins get admin anywhere else and continue donating?

DM is way more popular than office unlimited and dust2 unlimited.

Nat, keeping a server just because of sentimental reasons is wrong, I hardly ever see people in it. and never ever see people in dust2 unlimited.

But whatever keeps n/u alive i am game for. atleast i will still have dust 2.

Natalya
08-17-2008, 09:36 PM
DM should probably stay, and Dust 2 Unlim should go. But Office Unlimited... D: Iunno.

i will help get the office_unlim server populated i just need some other bitches to help me out!!!

Natalya
08-17-2008, 11:14 PM
Well since ZM's going to hell I guess I won't have to spend time in there trying to populate it anymore. You could msg me whenever you need help loading Unlimited up. That's the server that got me into CS:S in the first place u know.

Dust2 24/7 is what got me and lots of the people I know in this community connected. I must say I'm not sad to see any of the other servers go since I never played on any of them except office once or twice.

08-18-2008, 06:48 AM
im really sad that we got to get rid of the servers & all but the admin of the other servers should b changed over 2 a nother1 of there choice & as 4 the zm/gg put 2gether would b dumb & hard as hell & no 1 would play we would lose a lot of ppl on that but once again im really sad 2 c them go. N/U got me stared N/U i end with

well this isn't great but whats necessary must be done sorry to see DM go :(
as for CAL teams paying for the servers and vent i'm down i have a pretty steady income so i'll throw in some money

Natalya

A GG/ZM mix would suck. GG should stay as just GG.

siosios
08-18-2008, 04:16 PM
cal servers (2 of them)for the css side are $40 a month and the current vent is $25. the cod4 cal teams server is $22 a month. so if you guys all want to get together and chip in as a group then i can keep them up.

I don't even have cod4 lol. get rid of dat yo. just keep the css ones lol. I'll see if maybe I can chip in 2 dollars next month

yeah d2_u gotta go, it's too bad cuz i played on sum German server once with the map up and like 50 people. damn that was fun. As for off_u it would be too bad to see it go, kinda like bowing to NA when there are a few people in off_u more always come, and if there were just a few people in there all the time i think lots would come back.

Natalya
08-18-2008, 10:33 PM
CMAC is right. It just takes 2 or 3 people to populate it... Wait a half hour or so and then it fills way up. We had over 20 people in there today.
