Your Server Sucks (and here's why)

[heedicalking]

Why does NOBODY make anything interesting other than a standard DM scenario?
I like variation, not a better way to mimic all the other damn servers.

loving, do something different please?

all bark no bite. this post doesn't help the "cause".

[Mr.Noßody]

all bark no bite. this post doesn't help the "cause".

And yours does?

All Ive seen from you is garbage and several unpopulated servers.

[Bushido]

whoa, hey, no fighting.

we are distinctly not in drama this time. don't bite each other's balls off.

[Mr.Noßody]

Any thoughts on my original post? Or am I pitting into the wind?

[Bushido]

there's nothing wrong with the standard DM layout, are you high

dudes shooting dudes is timeless



unless they do it on the same map with the same weapons with no quirks or interesting bits. at that point it's an issue of skill, which blockland does not mesh well with. lag compensation and all.

also i just find final destination gross

it should be noted- before anyone says so, cause me saying that is pretty much asking for someone to go "HEY BUSHIDO EVERYONE USES T+T DOES THAT MEAN IT'S stuff?"- that maps are typically quirks within their own right. modern games are simply fights with guns on different maps- but the guns don't change, the maps do. different battlefields mean different tactics and different things to learn and memorize and different ways to trip up your opponent and get an edge (even if it is simply through familiarity), and that offsets the game just a little bit to make it fun

if you try that with guns, it just gets confusing. sort of like getting an SMG, jamming on the trigger and sincerely wondering why it seems to have started shooting lightning.

[Mr.Noßody]

The DM layout is always classics, but it's something Ive seen to death in Blockland.
I'd love to see more interesting objective servers that don't involve two teams and guns.

yeah i'll verbally kneecap jail RPs next

You can cry on my lap bushy.

Numbers don't lie bro.

LOL

OH GOD AAH

yeah for whatever reason nobody seems to do (or even have TRIED to do) an adventure map



that's weird as stuff; blockland's practically built for that, but noooo

by the way, you should make an adventure map. if you need inspiration, PM me.

yeah, people like you are exactly the reason why this trend is so prevalent

the reason why you're hosting isn't to be fun, it's to get people to join your server. jail RPs are always the same; oppressive-ass borderline(?)-sadistic guards, an agonizing waiting period between games, guns 'hidden' in toilets, but for some reason uber-popular. i would have to imagine that the reason is because everything is so 'difficult' and almost directly insulting due to the fact that the guards are players and there's a heavy-ass negative feedback loop because the prisoners keep getting killed by them. basically, it's one endless revenge quest. preying on basic human nature.

whoopee. you're a real go-getter, you are.

Numbers that are made up of the festering cesspool of this game, from the stupid newbies (not a generalization, specifically saying the stupid ones) to the general idiots, AKA the ones who yell "FREEKIELLER ADMIN BAN HIME!!!!"

nah my servers are pretty good, but thats your opinion. not everyone can cater to every players demands. that is why barking doesn't get you far, because each person has their own idea of whats good and whats not.

i am not trying to usher in some new cause. i'm working on some projects right now. i don't really care what other people host, I don't rely on other peoples servers and i am not currently hosting one of my own.

the last time this died off was because of extraneous and extremely contrived circumstances.

i'm not even kidding. it involved stuffty room cleaning and me getting IP banned.

people pointing out the issues of concepts are exactly what's required to spark change, cause people tend to fix the things they've been made aware are problems. saying is all i really need to do- specifically target people and tell them why they're not doing as well as they could be and how they could do even better. if they do want to do better, they just make the changes and bam, they're riding high off of what is markedly a better idea (unless there's some sort of critical flaw in my logic in which case it is my fault) and i'm happy because the overall quality of blockland's server lineup has gone up by just-that-much.

what do you want me to do, single-handedly commandeer every forgetin' server and redo every idea from the ground up?

except this has been done again and again, and the spark fails to light. if you want this done, maybe people should start actually lighting the fire instead of just talking about it. you don't personally have to go out there making a bunch of servers, but it would be nice if some people actually did.

wtf is this stuff. numbers saying that "lots of people eat hamburgers" doesn't mean "hamburgers are healthy becuase lots of people eat them". nice job fallacy fred.

yeah the problem is probably just overall laziness.

still, there's no real way to cause people to attempt to do things outside of sheer competition



yo tingalz, still wanna make that contest?

I laughed reading this, how offensive you are towards like every loving player.
   And what I kind of thought is how you're barking at everybody who does things wrong, and think you're right.
You didn't specifically say "Yeah you're server sucks because mine is better" but you really took the role of knowing exactly how things should be and in that perception people will see you as the "Right" guy and everyone is "Wrong".

 I do have to agree though, the "Blockostrike" "Modern Blockware 3" and anything that includes "Block" get's really loving annoying.

 Also, you and your emphasis on weapons. It's almost as if you're saying T+T is the only weapon pack that's should be deemed right, because it's the only weapon pack with useless skins that no one uses. Yes I get you're point, make the same weapon different eye view, but the same functionally. That and you're barking at Blockland, an half unoriginal community that either uses T+T all the time or a mash up of weapons that doesn't even remotely connect.
 
Again, see your points, but you make it quite one sided towards who's right and who's wrong.

[Bushido]

i am explicitly referring to counter strike servers in that first story

i'll probably make it less explicit tomorrow. it was originally aimed toward racerboy and skill's server and decided to post it here because i noticed i put alot of effort into it and there's actually some useful knowledge in there

of course it's one sided, i'm trying to convince people to follow a certain pattern of instead of following the pattern they have been following

that was a great sentence.

it's not even that bottlenecked, either, there's still room for variation; it's just that these particular things are stupid and should be avoided because they simply don't work

[Treti]

There have been a lot of threads lately about how stuffty servers are. Why dont you guys just stop complaining and ACTUALLY make your servers ( and others )  better.
