<div class="IPBDescription">Forum hosting and more for ns communities/servers.</div>Introduction
Our goal is to provide -1- forum for the biggest servers, and ns communities out there. So whenever you need to complain about a ban, make suggestions on how to improve the server, or anything, you can visit -1- forum instead of having to make accounts on 1-5 forums for your 5 favorite servers. This way we “merge†server forums, and it would be easier to make a statement about the different servers, as you are just some clicks away from commenting/posting in your favorite server(s) forum.
If you want English support for your server, we can provide you this on our forum. If you for example run a server in France, you will most likely have french players, but also a lot of international players as well. We want your server to be liked by international players too, and we don’t want your server to lose regulars because of “lack of supportâ€. We handle the English if you cant.

<3 ns talent!
btw good idea, had this yeahrs ago, but we didnt find an financer :| (was planed a LIL bit bigger ^^)
Definitely a good idea. I assume aegix will put ausns2 will be in that list.
That's better than what I get at <bad> clan.
Try the magic words!
...No, not "Please"! Duh. It's /wb remove and /rc remove!...
... Although some servers don't even allow /wb remove, and RCBot NEVER seems to work in a similar fashion for some reason. :S
Any server not running this basic catchphrase-driven client app should be shot down.

It's more because you join the server expecting it to be full of players and find bots instead. That's worse than finding it empty IMO. If it's just empty it'd have a chance of being added to my favs so I could join when there are at least some people on it. If it's bots I'll never bother adding it becuase I'll never know when real players are on.
You can add a "Bot" filter to your steam server browser, but some bots apparently don't flag it. I think NSTalent's don't.
Actually I just right-click on the server list columns (Name/Players/etc.) and enable "Bots", flagging everything with 0 ping running on it (although some servers purposely work around this). It also saves my favourites from being filled with perma-empty servers, and if I wanted to, I could play solo vs. bots until that server gets populated, like I normally do looking for a small game on VH2 servers.

Dammit! Ninja'd.
And I checked, but NSTalent has three players and no bots on it based on name/time played. I have seen bot filled "botless" servers before but I don't see any on this list tonight.
In other news, wow. ABLEns.net is filled today. Weren't they lame five minutes ago?
I just hope people stick with the topic, but I'm very happy for your positive feedback don't get me wrong :). Thank you all.
so bump that ###### !@:)
Thank you, i could have said the same, but you saved my time.
To the others with issues: It's better to play against bots (to fill server) than waiting in rr for a 1 on 1 game. Also more people tend to join when they see 12 players/bots, than being "1 of the 1000" servers out there with 0 players. Also we have a very nice system which handles the bots very well. If you rather want to play 1 on 0, or choose a laggy server from another continent, be my guest.
Removed:
* Conversion service as it will mess up the database with a lot of dead code/emoticon code and so on which is not supported by our software. After all, different forum software different handling systems. If you really want a conversion service, I could always have a look at your database and see if it could be done (without messing up our database) (contact me if you want this). If you've used millions of let's say custom emoticons, I don't have the time to do query replace(field,'code to find','code to replace with'); on all of the code. I feel like I had to explain why we removed this service in general, because it was a huge benefit as you could move your community without losing any content. I again say, if this is very important to you, and if you don't want to start off "fresh" I will have a look at your database, and try clean up things (if it's not too much of a work) before I eventually do a conversion. I made this decision to keep it tidy so we don't get any bad user experience on our forums and lot of trash.
