Fr31ns Alien Infest Server Of The Month

<a href='http://www.commchair.com/' target='_blank'>Comm Chair</a> Named FR31NS Server of the month for their site. I know that nobody here will care, we all have our favorite servers, but I thought I would post it to show what a great bunch of people are in that community.

<a href='http://www.commchair.com/serverofmonth.htm' target='_blank'>Here</a> for the blurb. Not much, so I will quote it:

"COFR - IP: 207.44.180.88:27015

I loved the response of team work when I joined the server. I did not hear moaning once! for damn shotguns and there forth. No one gave up we battled to the last man with no f4'ing. Sadly I was on losing marine team but first time happy as we communicated well I was listened too as comm (even though made mistakes^_^). I also think the policy on swearing was great also though saw no admin on there at the time people warned me of swearing once so looks like a good community there.

    yeah, couldn't care less if I wanted to.

    Well, mebbe a little less if I really really tried. But that would involve going back in time and not posting at all

    maybe if they could get their grammar correct i may consider it:

    <!--QuoteBegin--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->I did not hear moaning once<b>!</b> for damn shotguns and there forth<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    I don't even think thereforth is a word...

    Looks like anyone can make an award and hand it out. Kind of reminds me of awards that people get for webpages....

    Didn't say it was a big thing, just thought it would be nice to mention it for the people that play there and got the attention.

    And you are offended because? I never said it was a stellar accomplishment or anything. A long time ago this was a rather nice community and mentioning how something about a community wouldn't get you flamed.

    That is no longer the case. Please delete this post, because I wouldn't want to offend people like the **** that are on here now.

    Well lets start at the beginning. Most people find that awards have to be earned somehow.

    I don't know about other people, but an award that's been handed out without any evaluation of 90% of other eligible candidates just makes me mad. But that's ok as long as they keep it on their site. But now you come in here and tout it like your part of the best community on the net.

    Don't even try to pretend you weren't trying to say "I'm leeter than all you fools". Cuz that's a bunch of bullhonkey.

    I also seem to remember you and Nikoli used to be at the top of my list for posters that put the least thought into what they say.
  • BrutusBrutus Join Date: 2002-10-20 Member: 1555Members
    OMG you don't like my posts? I seem to remember that you are still the same jerkoff as always.

    And no I wasn't saying that my server is this or that. And it is a monthly thing so if you go next month you will see another server I am sure. Now go back to trolling and being upset, for whatever reason.

    I think it's time for you to get back on the bus.

    I'm really very curious about why people are so up in arms about someone saying a server is good. I would think that in a community this size, people trying to promote a good server would not be so ardently attacked.

    What am I missing here?
    Promoting a friendly server where good teamwork is featured. WOW that's cause for flame.

    Come on people, look at what you're criticizing.

    Support the community, don't arbitrarily flame it.
  • [WHO]Them[WHO]Them You can call me Dave Join Date: 2002-12-11 Member: 10593Members, Constellation
    I'm not flaming about the server. Servers can be good and all that, people can promote them all they want. I'm flaming the award because I can't stand things that have no reasoning behind them. That and I hate brutus
  • BogglesteinskyBogglesteinsky Join Date: 2002-12-24 Member: 11488Members
    Now now ladies, lets just calm down shall we?

    Brutus found that is server was rated "best of the month" by some webpage.

    thats nice for him.

    He wanted to share his success with everybody in the community, but nobody felt the same way.

    thats not nice for him.

    can we please just let this thread drop??

    I'm curious myself. Well, we were happy about it anyway. Sharing our joy here was obviously a mistake. Despite the criticisms in this thread, it was an achievement. Recognition of the hard work put in by all the admins and the quality of the regular players that frequent the server. We don't go around pimping our server on the forums. All the recommendations I have seen have come from players who genuinely enjoyed playing on the CoFR server and felt it was worth recommending.

    I think we can safely go back to 'quietly achieving'.

    flaming is bad mmmkay

    Now why would he need to survey 90% of the other game servers? the title of the column isnt "best server evar" its server of the month, implying that many possible good servers exist and they can be judged on their own merits. Also from the context of the article, it is apparent that the author has played on enough public servers to judge some of the more common problems that we all complain about in bad games. And he specifically noted what aspects he enjoyed about the server.

    And since apparently nobody took the time to look, there is a news post in the news section of that site, asking for ips of good servers to try out, so it seems he did get people's opinions.

    OK, folks, this topic is officially in decontamination.

    Some of you really showed your worst side in here. Wise up or face the consequences.
