Title: A plee to server owners.
Post by: SkateR on March 14, 2007, 08:54:46 PM
Well, I for one am sick and tired of being temp banned by the the one we call Snipen. I'm sure a majority of the community has been either kicked/banned/temp banned/view gibbed and force joined by this worthless sack of excrement. I am asking all server providers if they would be willing to put up some extra servers with NORMAL settings.

Basically, this is to jitspoe. Why do you keep your crappy server up with horrible maps and terrible settings. Please make some pub servers with normal settings and good pub maps, they are sure to be played. I know I for one would play there more than GT. The reason I am making this is because snipen changed the map from carpathian to fort20, with more than ten people in the server. Several people asked him to change map to which he said "no you whine to much jekekeekek" He also kicked me several times before the map change.

Please, Jitspoe, or anyone who can provide servers do this. Thx.

When will it get through to you that name calling isn't tolerated here?  You're up to a 16 day ban.

The last two times a decent map has come on GT someone has changed it. pbcup_renoir came on the other day and crazylady immediately changed it to propaint1. Today the Carpathian incident occurred.

However, snipen did change it to crimethink last night when i asked him too.

I just realized that Jitspoe has a classic settings server. I guarantee if you were to re-name it or make it stand out more or something it would be used more. We need to get rid of GT, seriously.

Agreed, but this post will probably get deleted like my other one.

Nah, this'll just get locked when the discussion gets too heated.

Also, what's wrong with the EV1 settings? I like them more than the settings most servers use.

There's nothing wrong with GT servers as long as you're not a complete excretory opening to them. I have been tbanned for using aliases and not saying who i was, but there is NOTHING you can do to change it. Just lay low, trash their scores, and make it enjoyable for yourself.

*also, the map list needs better maps, or some more pub maps like when i first started, i still love em'

just played a full pub with sharon and snipen, no admining was done, so i don't see why you all complain they do it all the time
Title: Re: A plee to server owners.
Post by: DaRkNeSS on March 14, 2007, 11:14:55 PM
I fully agree.  I have seen countless times when Snipen, Sharon, or Picasso have viewgibbed, kicked, tbanned, forcejoined people, or changed the map in the middle of a game. 

I think the most recent time I have seen it was on castle1 on GT Classic 1.  I had killed Snipen about 6 rounds in a row and as I was grabbing the BD flag I was viewgibbed, followed by Snipen spamming OWNED! in mm1.

You always have a choice.

And if you don't like the servers that are up, go buy and run your own server.

If you don't want to do that, don't play the game.

Period.
/me goes and orders yet another case of cheese....
Title: Re: A plee to server owners.
Post by: Reed on March 15, 2007, 09:13:06 AM
You can't please everyone all of the time, especially with things like map changes etc.

To single out GT is unfair, this happens on other servers as well, I've been kicked from OTB numerous times for no reason but you just get on with it. The force joining isn't always a bad thing either, and often its just a case of Picasso and Snipen wanting to play on the same team without unbalancing them, personally i don't see a problem with that. I know if i paid a few hundred dollars a year I'd want to play with my mates.

Why don't you pay for your own server? Or dig into your pocket and donate something to other servers?

I play on GT Servers daily. And there are countless times where I have played with Snipen and Sharon and the game has went along just fine. Without map changes or viewgibbing or any other admin commands. So I guess those of you who get the admin privileges used against you are doing something that violates the rules of the servers.

Or really tick off the admin.

Post by: lekky on March 15, 2007, 06:08:01 PM
Usually theres no problem. But occasionally people do get kicked for no reason whatsoever. e.g. not having said a word in the server.
Title: Re: A plee to server owners.
Post by: Gremlin on March 15, 2007, 09:52:51 PM
I have played in GT servers for a while now, well over a year. In all the time I have played there I have never had any problems with any of the admins. Honestly, I can't say I have even seen any of the admins there doing anything that would be called abuse. As far as map changes, at the beginning of the map or even in the middle, it's mostly because there have been complaints about the map or requests to change the map. I for one, enjoy GT's servers. They are always up, I get a very good connection, and most of the time the maps are decent maps or if you ask Snipen, Sharon or Picasso, they will change it to a map that people enjoy. Personally, I appreciate the GT server owners for dishing out their own money to give us ALL a place to play this game. Just my 2 cents, don't spend it all in one place.

Answer to your problem, Get a job. Buy a server.

Post by: Fyre on March 16, 2007, 05:58:07 PM
There's like 45 DP servers. Do we honestly need all of them? I think not. I get sick of looking through the serverlist looking for a server with a decent amount of people in it. All those OTB servers need to be taken down. They're destroying DP with there 5 second elim times. It's coming to the point where people think 5 seconds is the default elim time. One newbie came into a server the other day and said "what's with the 60 second elim?" Disgraceful.
Title: Re: A plee to server owners.
Post by: KiLo on March 16, 2007, 06:16:04 PM
One or maybe two servers with a 5 second elim time would be ok but I see servers today that ruin good maps with short spawn times.
Myself I prefer a 30 second elim time. With 30 seconds you have a good chance to respawn and at the same time you're not respawning and killing the person who just killed you.

Fyre,

There was a time when we only had 2 or 3 servers. Be VERY careful what you wish for...

Post by: JiGSaW on March 17, 2007, 10:37:14 AM
I kinda agree with Fyrestorm.  It's pretty stupid how theres like 6 servers dedicated to ub_cliff that have 1-5 second elim time.  There's no need for 5-6 servers doing the exact same thing.
Title: Re: A plee to server owners.
Post by: Sharp on March 17, 2007, 11:06:27 AM
Its OTB that keep European players glued tp this game, i cant stand playing 140ping. But yes Ub_Cliff needs to be rid off.

Really simple solution:

Go get your own server.

It's only 1 server. Our pubs are with 30 second elim time and our matchservers are with 60.
New players love ub_cliff, but with the new rotation i see there are some other great maps for such a 5-sec-server.

ewww, well i would name a site that would host servers (not for free) for paintball if someone asked for one.

Its their servers, they can do whatever they want with them as long as they dont break any rules set by jits. Remember its a privilege to play on their servers.

yeah im thinking of getting a server from jitspoe.. but $25 seems like alot for a server that im not even allowed to upload my own maps and setup login.... it should be more like $15 and a pound a rice =]


BTW: with that $1 i got a refill on my 64oz cup at a 711........ and a hindu guy was working. mmmmmm  Dr. Pepper
Title: Re: A plee to server owners.
Post by: jitspoe on March 21, 2007, 03:17:53 AM
The reason for the high charge is:

a) It costs me personally about $100/mo to lease the server.  If that were split 4 ways, it would be $25 a person.  Unfortunately, the only people who have taken up the offer so far have been loial and superman (for a while), so I'm still paying most of it.
b) I don't want too many servers running on the machine or they will degrade the performance.  If I charged less, I'd need to have more people involved to make up the difference.
c) It's a pain in the butt dealing with people when money is involved.  I'd almost rather pay for the whole server myself than deal with getting people to send me payments.  Charging a higher amount keeps the less serious (and more troublesome) people away.

You aren't required to get a server from me, of course.  If you find a better deal elsewhere, go for it -- it's probably better to have servers running at different locations anyway.

There was no need to post that load of garbage since it only made you look like a pompous excretory opening.

I just want people to follow the rules of the server. If you don't do that then I warn you. And if you continue then I will do whatever punishment is listed in the rules.

I guess I'm just a strict person.
