SD ET(main) Server Dead


(SwordOfDamocles) #1

I’m pretty sure that the SD server is dead now. By dead, I mean no one frequents it anymore.

I guess I’m just posting this cos I personally feel it is a shame that it had to die out due to unwillingness to move it over from etmain to etpro - and i guess the downtime at one period didn’t help.

Admins plz don’t take this as a rant at yourselves, more my opinion that if it doesn’t change to ETPro now, it will remain dead.

Saying that I guess you could always use the server for something else :slight_smile:

Unless it changed IP and/or port it is actually dead (as in down) right now. I haven’t played there for ages, but I still have it in my favourites for some reason…

evil :o
it seems to be down :o :o

Yep shame it doesn’t get frequented anymore … there were a good bunch of regs on … some very good games were had.

Some of the regs now visit the Nightwatch clan server … :slight_smile:

Still it would be good to get etpro on the SD server to keep the home ground alive …

they have said why they don’t want to put etpro on before :confused: their loss tbh :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

I think they said something about quiche and cats …

The cats ate all the quiche.

:moo:

There homeground IS etmain. You think Activision would be happy that a partners not even running there own code on there servers… :wink: (and remind them why there paying them to create such…)

Just a presumption. I know I wouldn’t be…

It’s there again.

Hmm, what about if some of the forum regulars “date” to play on this server.
I think it would be fun to meet there regularly.

I haven’t played on an ETMain server for a good while - I can’t go without the hitsounds anymore :wink:

No offense to anyone, but who in their right mind would play etmain instead of etpro? The answer is obviously a noob (in the word’s true meaning). I haven’t played etmain since… I can’t even remember.


(eq-Shrike) #13

Please lay off the noob accusations - there are plenty of reasons why etmain is still fun. I too have gotten used to playing on etpro serves but I still don’t like the unholy amount of damage required to send a body into limbo in etpro for example. It’s not just noobs who still like to play etmain every now and then …


(nUllSkillZ) #14

I don’t look if it’s a stock / etpro / shrub server.
I only look for the maps (I love playing custom maps).
And for the No. of players on a server.


(Cerebrate) #15

So you admit that they mostly consist of noobs? :wink: Actually, as I said, I didn’t mean to offend anyone by saying that. “Noob”, to me, means “beginner”, and I think they are more inclined to go for etmain. At least it was that way; I suppose most servers run etpro now.

I don’t understand the notion about “unholy amout of damage” though. I find it much easier to frag people in etpro due to hitsounds. Elaborate, please.


(BondyBoy007) #16

he’s refering to the amount of damage required to put ppl into limbo, not fragging them in the 1st place


(Salteh) #17

pgh - if you use “there” instead of “their” one more time… I’ll have to eat you!


(BondyBoy007) #18

I was letting those go :wink:


(Fusen) #19

well for the more advanced players, they will most likely only play on etpro servers and seeing as most of the forum members have been playing for a good amount of time and are more than likely advanced players


(Sauron|EFG) #20

The thing that made the SD server great fun to play on wasn’t the name, it was the regular players. Like Shrike said a lot of them have found their way to the Night Watch server, so it’s pretty much like in the good old days (but with etpro). :slight_smile:

GGs all NW, ABS, lsr and eQ guys (and everyone else) that were on there tonight.
