Reading the topics I had no idea which forum this should go in so I'm sticking it here in General.

This is NOT a clan recruitment. I am looking for an already established NS clan with a decent amount of active members to co-run our team's server. It's a 24/7 server I set up for my team, but we're just not big enough to have people playing on it all the time and thus it sits dormant. Server info is in my sig. Cost to the clan chosen is free. I built this server with spare parts and run it off an existing dedicated and unrestricted XO T1 line I have access to. You can check out the server info in my sig. Top members of the chosen clan will get admin priveledges as well as an optional authicon. Your clan's name will also be added to the server name (ex. .21L./-RaGE-).

Post information about your clan below, such as your website, how long it's been active, number of ACTIVE members.

This is an opportunity that won't come around again for a long time I bet. It's your chance to get your clan a FREE 24/7 NS server. Others are paying hundreds a month for similar services and here's your chance to get in on one for free. So start posting about your clan and why you believe I should choose it over the rest.

If you wanna chat with us and help us get a feel for you and your clan meet us on IRC gamesnet.net #21L.

    Our clan (Iron Fist Brigade) will be out of a server in 2 months. I'm currently hosting it, but I'll be losing access to this university T3 when I move out. We'd be honored to take you up on this offer.

    The clan has 8 or 10 active members (and looking for more), we've been around for 3 or 4 months I believe. I've set up a small webpage, the link's in my sig.

    but u can find us on irc on #natural-selection.nl @ Quakenet [edit](stupid of me, the other chan is prv)[/edit]

    We are partially hosted by ns.nl and some of us are admin on the server
    We do not abuse our right at all and play a lot (read: too much)

    Why us? We can fill the server most of the time and our allies aswell
    We do not **** up servers with stupid rules and kicks/bans.
    And we really need a server bcuz the ns.nl servers are used a lot for ns.nl clanwars.

    But if there is a clan that is in real desperate need of a server u could better choose them.

    Clan |FH| would be thrilled to co-run your server.
    www.fh-clan.us
    #fhclan on gamesnet
    jayfive@.NOSPAM.fh-clan.us

    The clan has been around for over a year. We have 18 members (We have both CS and NS divisions, 11 players play NS daily). The leaders are in their 20's (college students and software guys). We are currently on a recruiting kick and hope to expand a bit; probably to ~15 NS members. Our members are US and Canadian, mostly east coast and a few are west/central.

    Right now two of our members host small NS servers from home, but neither are on 24/7 or good enough for clan matches. We manage to keep them full and rockin' though, and my server has a few good regular players. We can offer you good admin and troubleshooting skills.

    We are on the OGL NS ladder and expect to sign up for CAL once version 1.1 comes out.

    I think we would do a great job helping to fill and admin your server. It is very generous of you to make an offer like this. Thanks.

    This looks like a great offer and one that my clan, XYY, would be very interested in. We've been looking for a server since we started up sometime last November.

    XYY has 10 active members (all on the West Coast) and we are currently recruiting more. We hope to have about 16 members eventually. Our website is <a href='http://xyy.1337krew.org' target='_blank'>xyy.1337krew.org</a>. We have an "about" section which explains the clan name and our basic attitude very well.

    We're active in CAL-NS and would love to use the server for scrimmages and matches, if that's possible.

    I think the single biggest reason our clan would make good co-hosts is that we're good at bringing a fun atmosphere to a server. XYY isn't overly serious and everyone in the clan has a great sense of humor.

    As an added bonus our gorges are VERY sexy! <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    its nice to see some one giving back to the clan community w/a free server. my clan has already have a 8 person server which is being upgraded from a p2 450 w/384 megs ram to a dual athlon mp 2000+ w/1 gig, website is www.clan2id.tk. clan 2iD has been around since september 2001. w/some on and off time mostly up though. always been a TFC clan until ns was released and we switched within that week. about 6 people on this clan but we have plans to start actively recruiting in june or so when school is over *and i graduated from highschool* but i see other clans probaly desperately need this server more then us, and that is fine to me. but its great to see someone being generous w/their own server like this.

    Well im pretty sure my clan would like to join, but since theyrs so many entrys why dont u have all the contestants have a tournament to see who gets it? Besides that noone can gripe about lag cuz surely the people you want will be the lowest pingers?

    Just for some basic info

    The server is on a t1 in San Jose, CA. I don't know what much more I can tell you. I'm lead of 21L, but the server is Kine's property - so the decision will be up to him.

    Glad to see so many people are interested.

    Lookin' good. I'll let this thread run and start contacting the people that post here directly this weekend.

    Additional Info:
    Server is in San Jose, CA, USA.
    PIII-866MHz
    512MB RAM
    Windows 2000 PRO

    The only thing it does is run NS, it's a totally dedicated machine.

    Would this server be required to remain public all the time?

    No. Being a clan server it could be used for clan practices/matches every now and then. The head member of the clan will be given a high enough level adminmod access to start up things like that on his own. All I would require is that someone in the clan tell me when it was gonna happen (post in the 21L forums or email me) and what the password is gonna be, in case I have to hop in for whatever reason. It would work a lot like the KIR server does now. Open to the public 95% of the time, but every now and then KIR closes it off for matches and practices.

    Clan |FH| has been chosen! They had members jump into our chat and talked with us, helped us get the server full a few times, and helped me trouble shoot and fix some server problems I was having. Can't really ask for much more then that. I'll be handing out admin priviledges and and setting things up during the week. Congratulations guys!
