    Well I'll throw in my worthless opinion on that: The server was crashing a lot during peak times when small maps would rotate in so something had to be done. Weather or not it needed a stamp of approval I couldn't say, but seems like it really wasn't a matter of choice, it seemed to crash often.

    I agree that 32 is a great number, it's the principle, and the fact that the solution wasn't posted in the admin section.

    I think we need to keep a log in the admin section of any changes that are made. No matter how small. For both site and server. That way the people that need to know, know. I'm not questioning your judgement butz. we also need to post the heirarchy there as well.

    yeah I noticed the server is getting more crowded, which is good, it's also lagging as hell. perhaps 32 is still too much.

    Btw you should post the server ip's too at our homepage. the domain is great and all that, but not everyone knows how to use them and not everyone will take effort to find out.

    by the simple fact that the server is full, I think they know. There isn't room for both on the main page. The reason behind the domain names was that we could switch IPs at anytime. I can't see a reason to go back to using an IP, or we'll run into the same problems we had before.

    I know what the domain names are for. All i'm saying is that people are lazy.
    and I bet you can make it fit in there.

    I'm sure I could make it fit, but I can't make that decision. it would defeat the purpose all together by sticking us with one IP for a single server. Now, if something goes down, we can quickly and easily back up our asses with a 2ndary server.

    i'm not sure if your getting the point of the hostnames. How many players do we get a month? 1000+? Try telling them all the new IP when the server goes down and we have to switch.

    There are instructions on how to connect to the hostname (same as an IP) on the servers page. I think you can even click the name and it loads the game for you. I understand what you guys are talking about, but in all honesty it creates more headaches to have the IP listed. And it's not like we're hurting for players right now.

    ok ok Kr0me you won. That time we had 2 or 3 ip's in three months wasnt really a succes. Anyway, that wasnt my point. What I meant to say was, it's difficult to find instructions on how to join our servers using the domain name. I imagine there are a lot of people who dont know how to use them. There are some instructions posted at the forums, but there is no real subforum on how to connect.
    sigh
    i'm tired
