[QUOTE=edxot;473460]admins ruined it

dont think you can find a server with the original config:

  • villa has extra speed (worse for snipers and amazing for lemmings). only advantage is that some very hard trick jumps are easier now.
  • jesus has some bug that shows wrong kill count in the end. just today i seen one guy kill 60 in 2 min
  • stupidoz server has no shuffle vote (you will see why when you meet them)
  • taw server has no vote at all. cant kick afks or cheaters, and no balancing teams via shuffle either.
  • bba server is xp save and the whole game becomes very diferent.

and many others created a new mod because they were too pro for vanilla (rofl)[/QUOTE]

Even though I cant disagree with each point you brought up about the remaining servers you forget to mention that its due to the admins/server owner´s efforts that we can still play QW AT ALL after the ranked servers disappeared and authentications werent possible anymore. So dont go blaming admins for “ruining” it.

BTW the new mods he mentions are not new, its just pro mod which has been around for years and atm is a little more active again every other day, which is great news and a lot of fun, you should try it out.

Digital version please :o :frowning:

(Fluffy_gIMp) #31

Not a game we own to be able to control this I’m afraid, I think it now sits with Zeni Max after the id Software acquisition.

I did a quick search of ebay and found it though…

(acekiller345) #32

Anyone still need the game? I have a link I could give you where you could get the digital copy.

i was not going to answer this, but since nobody is playing right now …

what i was trying to point out, is the fact that nowadays everybody seems to be playing a diferent game. and who can we blame for it ? admins ! the game is awesome, but some think that it would be better if … (whatever). and just because they cant be bothered to learn something about it (either using vehicles, trickjumping, xp related stuff, etc …) we end up with all these new mods and server rules.

just as example, check out villa server rules:

  1. Respect other players. Provide a fun, competitive, and fair atmosphere for everyone.
  2. Spawnkilling at the main base are strictly prohibited*, why waste your time at a fixed spawn? Fight for the forward spawns and objectives!
  • Taking out turrets in main base is allowed, but limited to weapons & vehicles. No violators or airstrikes.
  1. Spamming in game chat(voip/text)/votes will result in a warn/mute/kick.
  2. You may not deliberately hinder your own team by team killing/wounding, destroying friendly vehicles or assets.
  3. Players with offensive and/or vulgar names will be removed.
  4. Switching team/join spectator/respawn in fight to defeat lose are unsportive behaviors, and will result in a warn/kick.
  5. Game cheats and exploits will not be tolerated and will result in a kick/ban. This includes sniper/reload glitch.
  6. We don’t accept players using inappropriate language. We have joined the server to have a good time, don’t ruin that.
  7. Don’t stay too long in spectator mode when the server slots are filled up. Spectators or idle players will be kicked to make room. Unless reasons for being spectator are provided.
  8. Abuse the server for statspadding will result in a ban.
  9. Stacked up teams will be rebalanced by a vote or our admins. Don’t switch back!
  10. Don’t file a complaint for accidental team kills.
  11. Other clans are not allowed to recruit/advertise on our server.
  12. Admins can decide to disallow diving on Quarry for a better balance and/or playing experience.

they have been used for long. so far they seem to work (since the server has been the most populated for last years). so, why am i bringing them here ? because everyone has the right to have an opinion. and i am about to present you with mine (i could have done it when i was villa member, but didnt because my presence there was controversial).

  1. lacks objectivity. i could give a few examples of the respect i get there, not to mention the “fair atmosphere”. but lets leave it this way.

  2. any rule with the word spawn on it is not objective because where does the spawn end ? in another server i got kicked once for killing an admin right after spawn protection ended. it was ark map and he was defending 1st objective. so, was this a fair decision ? how do you define that the spawn ended and that you can kill an enemy ? btw what is main base ? considering last example, he was in main base ? or the main base is the other one with the anansi ?

  3. how do you preceed when someone goes afk ? i still remember the 1st time i didnt call a kick vote for someone afk. a long time ago, when the splatterladder was still on, i was playing ark map on strogg side. after 10 min without 1st objective acomplished, people started to leave from strogg team and it got even more unbalanced. to add to that, i notice someone afk, and decide i cant lose more time (calling the vote). so, thanks to that, things got even worse because next respawn there were 2 afks. if i didnt want to lose time previously, now i had to lose the double amount.

  4. many of the times i called a vote kick for intentional teamkilling, the admin came after me, not after the teamkiller. go figure.

  5. so why did they bother to get a ranked server ? and what about those players that have their own mental rank, where kills are everything (except in vehicles, or not), using strategies that they know will mostly cause their team to lose game, and at the same time, giving them an huge number of kills ?

  6. and if someone leaves after the shuffle ? i know i got kicked for that: shuffle, someone leaves, i went to his slot, and got kicked.

  7. complains work better than any rule. example: after losing a map because a well known rocket launcher kept spamming rockets everywhere, i decide to complain every tk. next map, he got 3 complains from the 3 times he teamkilled me. we played a few more maps, and he didnt tk me any more, not one single time !

  8. this one is hilarious. not only you can get kicked or banned from simply playing the game (due to all the other rules) this one allows referees to change rules in the middle of the game.

i really miss OMS server

ahhhh the boy who cried wolf… You neglect to mention how you call vote kicks on someone “for completing objective with lag”.
Also the many times you go to spec, then call shuffle votes. So you can choose which team to join if it passes?

So yes, as admins we cant see everything, but we also need to stop the abuse of vote kicks too.

Red star race to become the biggest dickhead, who will win? Dirtybomber or edxot?

(acekiller345) #36

Is there a max redstar number? And based on my experience with his posts in other places, dirtybomber will win.

(edxot) #37

@rex . i saw your movie of sverige. your attempt to show that he cheats, just proves the other way around. in fact, he’s just someone who can lean and shoot at the same time. so, you better stay in your “red star game”, acting as administrator. its better than showing up in the game, faking other nicks and gliching to make them look bad.

@d3v1ous1

  • still the same story from ages ago. i talked to you about that already, dont see the need to do it again.

Also the many times you go to spec, then call shuffle votes. So you can choose which team to join if it passes?

  • no, to be able to stay spec.

So yes, as admins we cant see everything

  • really ? i thought you would only see what you wanted to. at least, one thing you have failed to see: as long as you stay admin, you will live in a bubble of protection, protecting you from those who can own you. meaning that you will improve the same way as others eventually, but it will take you much more time.

, but we also need to stop the abuse of vote kicks too.

  • its not abuse when half team is afk, and the other half is running around trying to teamkill me (lol). btw, i noticed that whenever i am in villa server (where you are admin) i am always in the limited group (meaning that i cant call votes). so far it seems to be the way to prevent “the abuse of vote kick”. but i noticed that i am not the only one in this situation. a player called “tabu.name” is also set for the limited group. care to explain why ? did he abuse votes too ?
(d3v1ous1) #38

All you ever told me was you don’t want to speak with me in game, you never explained why it’s appropriate to vote kick someone “for completing an objective with lag”. And I have seen you claim to be tked by someone “intentionally 3 times”, but when I checked console I saw only 1 tk with a rocket launcher while he also killed 2 enemies. How do you know it’s always intentional?

(Rex) #39

You brought up a two years old (!) movie only to defend a cheater. LOL! facepalm

Why don’t you just go to the forum of the specific clan and whine there? Oh wait, you want the attention here although no one cares.

Btw have you read the title of the thread yet? You know this strange thing in a forum which defines the content of posts.

I lol’d! :smiley:

(edxot) #40

i didnt explain ? i thought i did

sewer 1st obj. defending. and objective was 80% complete
while i was making an spawn host, one guy comes running (faster then tormentor can fly) and builds obj (the remaining 20%) before i can swith to lacerator and kill him (all this in less than 1 second). i have seen many strange things in this game, but like that, i only saw once. so i assumed he was somehow cheating.
