Hallo! En kort intro i historie først. Esports Media Norge og NSTalent har nå inngått et samarbeid om å bygge opp og drifte en Norsk NS1 og NS2 community. Esports Media Norge har vært en ledende bidragsyter til det norske spill samfunnet siden 1997, og har bidratt med utallige servere samt et godt miljø for norske spillere. NSTalent ble bygget opp for 2,5 år siden og har siden den gang vært de konkurrerende spillernes public server valg nummer 1. Ved å holde plugin listen lav, og innstillingene på et optimalt nivå for våre spillere, har vi toppa rankingen på de offisielle ns server listene for "classic only" i over 1,5 år i Europa. Sammen bidrar vi med tung ekspertise innenfor NS og håper at vi vil gjøre samme suksess med NS2 som vi gjorde med NS1.

For de som er interessert i å bidra til å samle norske ns spillere og å diskutere NS, <a href="http://www.nstalent.org/forum/index.php?/forum/37-ns-norge/" target="_blank">registrer dere på forumet her.</a> Vi ønsker å samle så mange som mulig før NS2, og vi vil ha NS2 servere lokalisert i Norge og klare når release av NS2 er et faktum. Dette vil sikre deg en topp ping i Norge. Vi jobber med tiden for å få opp en hjemmeside for NS Norge, men håper dere kan registrere dere allerede nå på forumet. Serverne vi vil tilby vil være public og privat, hvorav de private vil brukes til turneringer med hovedfokus på Skandinavia. Vi ønsker også andre spillere velkommen til den internasjonale delen av oss.

    Lykke til.

    Mye kan ha skjedd siden, men NS-satsingen deres (esports.no) i 2003-2004 var forferdelig useriøs. Har ikke mye tillit til en organisasjon som snur et blindt øye til en admin som behandler en server som sitt eget lille kongedømme (med vilkårlige bans og hele pakka) fordi han er broren til eieren.

    Jeg startet å spille når NS 2.0 ble utgitt, og fikk vel aldri muligheten til å spille på esports.no sine servere. Det gikk i surftown servere da ;). Nå har ikke jeg gått inn i detaljer med esports.no hvordan vi skal gjøre dette med admins osv., men vi skal nok klare sette noen klare regler. Som sagt har jeg drevet nstalent på et greit nok "profesjonelt" nivå (hvis jeg kan si det), og det er vel litt av grunnen til at nstalent har vært stedet hvor "competitive" spillere velger å spille når de først spiller public... Jeg har prøvd mitt beste å rette innstillinger etter krav fra denne type spillermasse. Hvis du også tar en titt på forumet, så ser du at det er nokså seriøse tråder, og at jeg (som drifter forumet) prøver så godt jeg kan å holde det på et slikt nivå. Jeg er alltid åpen for tips til forbedring, så hvis det er noe spesielt er det jo bare gi beskjed, og jeg kan ta opp ting med esports om det ønskes. Hvis det er som du sier, så er det jo 6 år siden, og mye har forhåpentligvis skjedd siden sist =).

    Now this obviously gives me a right to speak Finnish on ENSL forums without being moderated, does it not?! :>

    OK. Sorry. I just thought that when you make a "community" thread like this, you should be able to talk in both languages. If there was any offensive content in Norwegian, I would report it. This thread should'nt attract anyone else than Norwegians, and I personally don't see the issue, and don't see why any non-Norwegian people would hit such thread. This is not any "random Norwegian" thread, it's a thread started to build up a Norwegian community, and to help Natural-Selection grow in our country. However, I do respect the rules, and we will continue in English if this satisfy the moderators. Personally I again don't see the issue, when I clearly stated that I will report any offensive content written in Norwegian... It's sad, but OK.

    Actually, I was bout to say the same thing as Insane, but didn't (I knew a mod would eventually step in). I have a personal pet peeve with this as I spend 2+ hours a day on public transport with people yammering on in every language other than English. I'm sure none of it is offensive content, nor does it concern me; however it is very much an etiquette thing. If you are in a society, e.g. a forum, whose official communication is in a certain language then it is incumbent upon you to keep all communications in that language unless for some extenuating circumstances it is not possible.

    It just comes down to the fact that, on a forum of this size, unless everything is kept in a single language it makes it very difficult to effectively moderate. I believe that you mean what you say when you talk about reporting offensive content, but as someone who does not speak a word of Norwegian, I have no way of confirming that for myself. It's also worth bearing in mind that this has always been an English-speaking site, and you can probably expect anyone who sees this thread to at least have enough of a grasp of English to realise that there's a Norwegian NS2 community building up.

    I do however think it's cool that you're doing this. Good luck!
