The months that have been.

I've been pondering for a while on how exactly I was going to write this, with my main problem being that it just seems like 'another' sorry/what-are-we-doing thread.

We took on SWRP as we believed that we could have got somewhere with it and that we wouldn't have run into so many problems as we did. Not only was it poorly planned ultimately, but the unforeseeable problems we faced were like being pushed to the floor and trampled on, over and over. We left HL2RP behind as we believed that it wasn't getting anywhere. The numbers were low, interest in it was low and it ultimately became a burden on a lot of us to keep it going as our heart just wasn't in it.

We then headed for TTT, which I can say without a doubt was a success. Great! We got something right after all. It was a big hit, and still is a big hit and it has actually helped extensively with the growth of PubGamer as a whole. The 2Fort server I can also say without a doubt was a success, the Turbine server not so much. The point I am trying to make here is that we won't always get it right, and to keep lying to ourselves and you guys that 'everything is okay' is pointless and barbaric.

Is there anything that we have failed at doing before that we could do better at if we tried it again? Is there a problem with something that we're doing now that if rectified would make it a hell of a lot better? If there is then tell us! It's the only way we can make PG a better place to be, for everyone.

For a better 6 months! (Y)

After much fiddling and anguish, we figured out that the database for the ranks became slightly corrupted. We have fixed it up and no data (as far as we can tell) has been lost!

Get your competitive hat on and join the servers!

Server #1 - 2fort


Server #2 - Turbine

 

 

 

TF2 servers updated & new one online.

The 2Fort server has been updated and is now back online.

After reviewing the survey we did recently on the other TF2 server, we have put together a Turbine server. Also please note that the ranking system is not working at the present moment. More information on that in this thread: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=3188

Connect to our TF2 servers!

Server #1 - 2fort


Server #2 - Turbine

 

 

 

Why the TF2 ranking system is not working.

The ranking system we use was broken by the latest TF2 update by Valve (Yay updates). There should be a fix out for it shortly which we will obtain and apply as soon as possible. It doesn't seem to have affected the popularity of the server though which is absolutely great to see.

 

 

 

TTT back up

TTT server is back up as usual. Sourcemod has been disabled for the time being (It was what was causing the problem)

Sorry for the inconvenience!
