    Well, good luck finding <b>any</b> good server when you're in Dubai.

    NSA has the best pub servers at the moment

    If only they allowed recycling in their pub, I would never go anywhere else. Games always take way too long to finish on the classic server.

They don't rip or add anything else to the maps (except on faceoff, which is just weirdified).

    If you really can't stand NSA, try lunixmonster or better yet, fr13ns. Both great servers in thier own rights. Otherwize try bry's or voogru's.

    If worst comes to worst there is also tonnes of small comunities around, most of them don't hold the highest play standard however. <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd-->
    LOL, all the places your suggesting are all the same places he is tired of...

    *NSA - Map modifications ( keep giveing 'um hell bean XD )
    *Linuxmonster - Very aggressive admins ( LB your still my nazi hero )
    *fr13ns - No cussing & petty rule enforcement (sorry Brack you know i still <3 ya )

    *Havent played on bry's much, but I remeber bots there.

    *Voogru/GFB2S - Mod Mod & More change the whole game mods.

    Hell I could run down almost every popular server in north america, but I will just go off your list. As you can see these are the things he was complaining about in the first place. So it just seems a bit odd that you would suggest them to him, after reading the first post.

    You need to play extralevels2_rework that's been balanced before you make a blanked statement like that. The majority of the server ops who run it don't have a clue how to set it up.

    yes i did answer him.

    actually about the plug-ins, i'm not bothered by many of them, in fact i prefer them. i like unlimited upgrades in combat and i like the new upgrades added like self welding armor. i think they should be made official mostly.

    the last server i used was great. it had like the highest max player count. it was not laggy, it had custom maps. the plugins were great. the problem is i found out the hard way it has some fascist nazi stalinist taliban admins.

    Dubai is in the United Arab Emirates which is near Saudi Arabia.

    I guess I should say scripts or BS not scripts and other BS. scripts aren't necessarily BS, but they can be depending on what you want them to do i guess.

    and i don't like it when tv stations put movies on their stations and they cut the widescreen ends off and they put their logo in the corner of the screen and put subtitles on and cut some footage out. <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd-->
    I think this is by the funniest thing I've read in a while. Well it doesn't beat the thread on the SA forums but this is the second funniest thing I read this week. All they have added is a sign that shows where to support them. And sometimes with there sprite add which is so evil in design shows when they hold event for people to win prizes. It is not like the sprite is following you around the entire map saying "CLICK ME DAMMIT CLICK ME." Then when you try to hide from it the sprite goes, "HAHA THINK YOU COULD HIDE FROM ME? CLICK ME, CLICK ME."

    The only one I can think of thats in the actual map where the game really plays. Is on Tanith in the red glass room by the satellite that you weld open. Horrifying? Yes, you are now entering the Twlight Zone.

    anyway i still like the game. i'd be willing to bet i've actually played it more than anybody else in the world. i've played it more than i've played any other game and basically it's the only game i play. i've played every version of it. i got it so early when it was first released that i had to wait for the next day to play it so that i had people to play against.

    my nickname in the game is not the same as i use here. i believe my game nickname got deleted by admins here when someone mentioned it, because of its hilarity, but it rhymes with Buchanan. <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd-->

    I disagree entirely. The admins on Bry's just don't tolerate stupid behaviour and rule breaking. You break the rules they might slap you around a bit instead of banning you straight off, if you keep it up they will slap you to a ban. I think it's a fair process.

    well if Flayra sees his player numbers going down then don't you think it would make him a bit happier if he heard some of them say "i'm not leaving coz i think your game sucks. it's because the servers are driving me off"

    Not really. If there were no decent servers around, then obviously, no-one wants to play NS. That's not a good reflection on the mod. Besides which, you're just one person. Someone could stop playing because they've been stabbed to death, but it wouldn't mean much.

    well anyway maybe i can turn this into a blessing in disguise by using the time to work on my programming where i'm attempting to make an awesome engine that maybe NS could really flourish on.

    i don't know if i can keep sane without playing games though. when i don't play games i tend to increase in OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder) where i continually check things over and over to make sure there are no mistakes and when i'm playing games i just don't have time to do that or else i will die in the game. the kill death ratio i get in games proves to me that i can still be good when i'm not overanalyzing everything and just taking immediate impulsive action.

    First of all: I have bin using my Logitech-3-button-crap-mouse for 3 years and it is still working fine, so double-u te ef?

    I believe I can understand him. I don't like such sprites either, whether they are in the ready room or in the map itself, this is just freaking annoying, in my opinion. But what can you do about that, nothing at all. They are the guys who pay for the server.
    The admins on Bry's are great, I just don't play there much because most of the players are warping like hell >_>

    And plays, don't turn that thread into a flame-war, yes I mean YOU NGE!

    I play NSA servers all the time. You can find their sprite outside the window near Marine start. Personally, I don't care because I don't look outside the window but I built a WoL there during endgame and noticed it.

    The main problem with NSA is that they have two CO servers and just one NS server ... that's my big beef with NSA.

    The custom server is the best, though. I play on it regularly. /menu for the great win <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Lunix monster is great too, I never had such fun at a server except that one. Community is great, only problem is I'm getting tired of default ns, a few small good plugins like /menu seem to really add to the game to me (no I dont like stupid useless plugins, they ruin the game.)

    Yes. But this is not a good reflection either. To some brainless nubs, co servers with unlimited levels are decent servers. And if these servers change the community, when people cannot torrlerate it, they leave.

    wow what a weirdo getting mad at me for having OCD. do you go beating up people for being blind or deaf or being in wheelchairs too. wierdo.

    anyway i totally forgot something else that is hugely infuriating about most servers i'll add it to my first post. one is the autoconcede number is too low so the game keeps on ending whenever someone quits or the map plays over and over until you're totally sick of it because the map change timer is set to more than 10 minutes. it's like being forced to sleep in the same position the whole night.
