voting

[Hobo]

  I'm sure this has been talked about before, but I'll bring it up again.  Every once in a while someone complains that voting for maps does nothing.  As we know that's not true, but it does take time for that map to rise to the top of the list.  And as I said, this may have been brought up before, but I'd like to see more points awarded for a vote to help speed up the process. Maybe as high as 5 votes for large maplists?  Server option for amount of points per vote?  Just a observation and possilble solution to a few peoples complaints.

Personaly, I think that if a map is  voted for, it should instantly rise above all the other maps that haven't been voted for.

Personally, I think that if a map is  voted for, it should instantly rise above all the other maps that haven't been voted for.

Then we wouldn't be able to play anything but pbcup, blitz, and indune.

Actually, it does add 5 votes now.  What I plan to do, though, is make it some kind of equation that takes into account the number of players on the server and the number of maps in the maplist.  For example, if there are 2 people on a server and 10 maps in rotation, a vote would count as 5 points.  If there were 20 maps in rotation, it would count as 10 points.

Heh. Jits, you need to hard-code something into the client that doesn't let you play pbcup, or blitz with more than 4 people. =P

loial21...if you are paying money you should DEMAND what you want...it's as simple as that.
Don't let these people push you and your money around...DEMAND THEM BIETCHES TO OBEY.

[loial21]

lol s8n watch....

 OK JITSPOE. here it is, you will obey me and do what I say when I say and more importantly how I say.

With that said, now what? The servers are barley being used, you want a test server.. fine, official server...fine .But I am wasting money here, when I could be support something I believe in. But here is the whole of it....

1. I promised on my word, last year , when I first started posting that I would kick jitspoe some money as thanks for his effort in everything from the code, to the forum, to playing against a good sport. Just as long as he does not spend it on child porn the I dont care, I keep my word. Jitspoe expect a payment at the beginning of the new year. End of statement.

2. Would I like to have the server geared to what is popular, sure.

3. Thanks s8n, its about time some one said something nice to me, you rock dude.

4. Jitspoe I have muttered aimless words in the past asking you to contact me about the server. Please do. This must be private and productive.

5. I am now working with hhr/wod clan which I a proudly a member of, we are making a q4 WOD mod. I estimated a pledge close to 200 more dollars to help with the servers / forum / ts server etc.... The result is less time and money spent here , starting next year.

6.Dont think for a second I sill stop posting my random thoughts, ever. Or stop help newbs feel welcomed and wanted. Stupid newb bashers, go smoke a bowl and be helpful or be quiet.


PLease move post to loials run and gun thread, if you deem it so.

If newbs don't grow out of their newbdom, then they really shouldn't be here. No one likes newbs!

. See s8n the kind non responsive, immature crap this forum has turned into. I told you to watch what happens when you ask Jitspoe and his IRC to do something

Thanks for your imput Jitspoe. Lame

See s8n he does not give a sheet, wtf Am I supposed to do, but keep my word, while he acts with no regard to what a payign customer wants.

To all. (EIO)
There will always be newbs, always.
What is you major malefunciton dipexcrement? 

[Eiii]

Jits has things to do apart from tend to your every whim. And you're not a 'paying customer'. You've donated, and he's given you something in return.

And yes, there will always be newbs. I can't stand them. I'm suprised anyone can. But newbs are generally bad for the game and it's community.

[loial21]

Jitspoe?

what ever dude, i payed for a server. he has restricted my maps, why not others  ..wtf be quiet/

Nice ignore of my last statement on last post.

[Eiii]

Why not others? He doesn't have control over the other servers. If you really care so much, buy your own servers. As I said, you donated, you get a server, but you're not a 'customer'. He doesn't have to do everything you say.

Getting off topic -- please direct comments about loial's server here: http://dpball.com/forums/index.php?topic=863.new#new

1.  IEO I Donated yes, but not a first, perhaps you should read previos post before posting.
 
2.  I payed Jitspoe at the promise my own server. Per his post, no where was there a mention of map limitations. Not my fault.

3.  Jitspoe then metioned it would meen alot to him to not to have certain maps added on "my" server.  I then said ok. Thus making my contributaion a donation, acording to you.

Get you facts strait. and say sorry loial.    I have done nothing but be the most active player and forum poster.  I help new players.


What are you doing?
