I'm glad to announce that due to lack of high skill requirement servers, WongaNS has decided to step up and fire one up.
For a longer time now my teammates and me have been craving for some practice outside our PCWs and having some lighthearted fun without crushing games with 50/0 fades and such. This is nothing more than boring for all participants and serves no purpose. We wanted a server that when you dive into 3 marines with shotguns with a fade you die. We wanted a server where the guy next to you welds you and plants the mines to correct locations. We wanted a commander who wasn't unaware of how to make a phase gate and we wanted to be mucused and stormed if we were retreating as an onos. We wanted to have a challenge playing a public game from more than just that one guy you should avoid.
It will go under the name of "Multiplay // [WongaNS] Clanserver - NoGreens" and will kick anyone with a green name and/or under 80-100 hours played depending how they fare on the field/chair. This is to allow higher level players play in an environment that gives them challenge outside of PCWs. We wish to have anyone who thinks they're capable of taking a beating from a 1/2/3 div players to step up and play with people who knows exactly what they're supposed to be doing!
Direct IP for the wanting is: 85.236.100.63:27120 - Server is located in UK, London
PS. Keep in mind that the server was put up today on Tuesday 10.12. and will experience few extra restarts due to adding/removing mods.

Last I checked, there was a "No rookie" or "No green" player mod, that automatically kicked people who are still green/new
You cant really do anything about people who have played forever and still suck :-??
Its like in all the talent shows: "What? I cannot sing? impossible, my mom told me i can"
Another reason why you have low skill and rookies on these servers also is:
- Many rookies join these servers just to look how better players perform (maybe to learn something)
- They dont read or dont care about the servername
- You can disable the rookie tag in the options
I had so many games on "No rookies" servers with rookies as com and they had no clue what they are doing.
We have an 30 slot - no rookie server from ZM. Im sure there only DIV1 players playing there. NOT
At free weekens or steamsales i always open up a "regular only" server based on our serverranking.
So you have a "jumpserver" where you can earn the needed points to join the "high skill" server.
The word "high-skill" is a bit wrong in this case btw and should replaced with something like "basic gamesense needed"

Not really sure how that fares out in the end, but as i've seen in the more "popular" pub servers, some people do want to play with friends and this seems like one way to negate it to some extent.
No Div 1 player or higher would subject themself to a 30 player server. How disgusting lol. No wonder you were getting noobies
Just to clear this out: We=The NS2 community. I would never, NEVER running a server like this.
So you've never seen the most of the time full 40 slot server. Somehow ppl assume more slots = better
Maybe not at US times, but from afternoon to well into early hours CET there's usually plenty of competitive players playing around.
