I could go on and post picture after picture I've recently taken, (This probably goes for Aki as well) but I can't be bothered as uploading them takes too much time. Yes, JKA is dying, but at a slow rate. It is not dead yet. When I browse through my favorites, there's always at least 7-8 servers with more than 15-16 people on. Back in the time when the KR server was very popular, I remember its popularity died just like a fly that decides to rest on my monitor. Just like that. And I didn't see any people on the server for months. (Pure exaggeration, yes. Naturally, there were KR peeps and random guys on from time to time.) And if I remember correctly, KR never changed host/IP back then. This game we all love so much is filled with mysteries. Another example is one of my favorite servers, |JP|, used to have a lot of people all the time. And this were just approximately 2 months ago. Suddenly, nobody visited the server anymore. Only 2-3 |JP| guys from time to time. However, the server has become a bit active again lately.
Also on the topic of the Lugormod effects, I've noticed that JSU haven't played their modified ffa3 for a while now. |JP| as I recently mentioned, HypnoServer (EU server) and JoH were quite popular servers, but they all modified ffa3 (|JP| had also modified ffa4) and now I barely see any people on JoH. Where am I going with this? As said, Lugormod effects equals lag. Many people and Lugormod effects equals impossible to play and the players goes bye-bye to another server that doesn't have these effects.


and when those were taken...we werent so strict on admin and stuff...we had so much more fun then when we didnt have all this crap to try and make it fair....lol

I will have to agree with you here. People today are so obsessed and manipulted by new and "shizzcool" admin commands that Mr. Goofus Slider creates in his new versions of the JA+ mod, that they create completely ridiculous rules. No, I'm not referring to the laming rule this time. On most servers with the 'no laming' rule, it is normal procedure to sleep the guilty one, but clans like JSU (and I have seen this on the KR server as well) has the rule 'stay away from the sleeper or pay the consequences' which really means 'come closer and I swear to God I will abuse you.' The whole purpose of admin has completely gotten out of hand. It is taken way too seriously, and it is destroying the community.
K-1 as much as I agree with some of your statements I feel we are drawing away from the meaning of this post. Aki created this post so we can do something about improving activity. Telling me about other servers activity or what KR used to be like doesnt change anything, and to be honest with you, im sick of hearing about it. In the sense that JKA is a dying game, no-one with a right-mind can disagree with you there, but currently if you add up the amount of people online you can easily get over 200 JKA players on average playing. Now thats alot of players, we need to be working on how to get these players to play on our server not dwindling about what servers there playing on.

Im not going to be harsh and say anything like 'I'll delete any non-related posts' because to be honest im fed up with it. Use your own judgement guys, if your post is straying from the topic purpose, dont post it. Its spam and 70% of the time, people dont want to listen to it.

Hopefully you can understand what im trying to say,

Let's not forget i made this topic also to discuss how to 'improve the server', and good statements and feedback --> how to run a good server.


Well, personally, Escaped Turkey = Shit. It's for cheapcakes.
Personally, i would suggest that people split the payment (the more people paying the "cheaper" it will become.)
Also finding good server hosterz..

Personally, what i think KR needs is a US and EU server. Not US and TFFA server. I know about a good EU hoster- (JFTR: gives EU people -good ping-) --BUT then again, i am -sure- there are people not wanting to do so. There always is.

-and how did you quote him if he posted after you??

EDIT:

nvm, there seem to be a bug with K-1's post... its going backwards! And it wont sit still. WTF.

Um, its not really a 'bug' as such, somehow the time K-1 has posted is around 5 hours ahead of everyone else. Just look at the times - I dont know why this has happened but its not that much of a problem because its only happened on this thread.

--

Back on topic, Escaped Turkey are not shit - they have provided us with a server for all the time KR has been alive. Not once have we had any un-sheduled downtime, now as far as server hosts are concerned thats a good thing. Secondly if I look at the web-stats of this website, more people are posting from america and we have more american members, so it makes sense to have an american server. Sure, a euro server would be great - but whos paying? Feel free Aki, for an estimate price they cost around €45 for a 16 slot server and thats alot of money in my eyes.

I dont think the server host is the problem, I think at the moment its activity.

I was just answering Stealth.

Aki created this post so we can do something about improving activity.

I did include something relevant to the topic.

Its spam and 70% of the time, people dont want to listen to it.

No one ever forced you to read it.

somehow the time K-1 has posted is around 5 hours ahead of everyone else.

I'm from the future!
