What you guys think?
-
I think the ZPS (KAT) server brought some really colorful characters to CG and it would truly be a shame if a ZPS server wasn't revived. ZPS helped to make CG what it is today, so I believe another server is in order. :o
I don't want to see KAT/Slaughterhouse die.. :|
-
If we are talking about CG evolving as a community then ZPS wouldn't really add to it. Don't get me wrong, ZPS was fun and was what brought us all together to begin with (I think) but it's not completely necessary to get another one up.

We won't know until we try. :O
I already know like 3 people who would leave CG if a server doesn't come back up.

its already dead :'(
but if you want to expand the community getting a zps server isnt the right way to go
-
But what about the old****s and ZPS regulars? We can't neglect them
-
i do agree that keeping it up would be detrimental to CG's health at this point
-
every serevr doesnt have to expand the community some can be there just to play on sometimes to have fun like the KF server
-
Good ol' Server of Awesomness. Others have come and gone but you have always remained.
-
maybe we can have a small zps server with like 16 player slots or something?
-
That doesn't sound too bad. Wholegrain wanted one up anyways I thought.
-
Well I know one thing, don't risk getting a Zombie Master server unless we know we can bring people back to the game. I was floating around with ECG and when they did that, there wasn't enough people to populate it, but the assortment of people who played were farmiliars, and boy was it fun. Too bad it didn't last.
ZPS was and in some cases is still fun, but I'm used to it now. No one is working on the game. No matter what the ZPS team says, they're busy working on finishing their major project that will at least pay for their food and housing when finished. ZPS is old, the progression of modded addons and maps have slowed to a bloody half-assed crawl, and only a serious revision of the game would people return. I'm finally deciding to give up on a ZPS server. It would be smart to do it. Time to fill out an App elsewhere.
-
I def agree that we should get one up just for kicks. we need one where we can just go to have fun. so what if we have one server that has no others come in, it would just be for the community, with actual focus on other more productive games. we could have fun nights again!! thats my 2 cents parrot
-
this is to all the people that think that the zps server death wont do any harm to cg needs to rethink thier reason for believing so, because i for one wouldn't be a part of cg if it wasnt for zps and not to mention the regulars that have the same point of veiw....if the server dies, how can that possibly help cg in a good way? we would be losing players if the server dies and i know it might detour more to people to other cg servers but u got to also think that not every on has kf or css...like me for and example. the bottom line is that if the zps server is no longer active or dead it will do harm to cg in one way or another.
-
a 24 slot zps server is in the pipes
honestly please remember how important it is that we dont pay
per slot
or per server
we pay for what we use
zps = not many people on thus = not much to lose if we put up a zps server its win win (ethier was get it populated and it adds to cgs population or it doesnt populate much but we save resources)
i need a dedicated head admin to step up to the plate to manage the server though
-
I think one of our regulars from the old server would be a good candidate.
-
Suggestion to the Zps server, Wholegrain, i know u run it like u want to, but just listen i dont say u have to it this way but, yeah...
About the head admin, not sure its needed on zps, think about that its Not for expansion, server is only to have fun on, we seen the last month that zps does rlly bring new players anymore, so my suggestion is, to leave the Head Admin's job to ALL regular admins, who need to talk together about changes on the server..
2nd, i dunno if u still want hours on the admin, but if so, u should lower it, since its ahrd as an admin to start up a zps server several times aday now..
But yeah Wholegrain im only saying this cuz it would be sad if u put it up, and no one can use the hours to be an admin, or yeah u know what i mean, just wanted to say it...
And Wholegrain just ask if there's anything u want me to do around here, cuz it seems like u have Alot to see to with school and stuff
Peace m8

Yep
-
I don't think we would be that tight on admins being added there. I don't think anyone really paid attention to the whole play time thing anyways.
-
Yeah, looking at what Junk said, I agree with him
I too don't think there needs to be a Head Admin for the ZPS server because it'll just be for fun, not for expanding the community.
-
Yeah, I agree.
-
Well I will be a Regular Admin Since this is my only game. XP
And If this game is gone then im gone. Pretty much with CG we had our bad and good times.
Good times such as we becoming a part of KAT or Merging something like that.
Bad Times for me was When Wholegrain Took his Fellow members to CG with Him. (Pretty Much we Lost Alot of Old Members)
If the server isn't put up i guess i will have to find another community to bug which is really really hard.
-
i agree with junk aswell, the zps server shouldn't have a head admin,should be a group effort tin deciding whats best for the server and what to do with it.
-
@junk already kinda figured its more so a carry over of kat admins to the new cg zps server with no real playtime requirements probably more lower than anything maybe 5 hours every 2 weeks
i think that is doable even so the enforcement of it is going to be low considering it isn't a high traffic server its not on the top of my to do lists when it comes to enforcing admin hours or even standards
as you said junk spot on its more so going up to keep the ppl in cg happy more than to get new players
-
yeah.
So now we are just waiting for the server =P
-
css and zps should be up around this weekend
at the meeting last night it was unanimous among around 14 cg members that pillz be zps head admin and inject css head admin
once the servers are installed ill pass along the info to them and then its on their shoulders to get it up and going
-
(Whistles and waits...)
Piddles with the laptop to try to get it in a way to play the ZPS.
Wonders if he will ever be employed again.
Wonders if he can afford dsl on food stamps.
Nah. Prolly not. But hey.
IF he can get his system to a functional level, he will apply to be an admin again.
If not, he will bug the crap out of all of you on the forum, until his luck improves...
Sigh.
-
Cadaver has been waiting for like, two or three months now, for admin on this server.
Can we put it up already? :D
-
if i dont see it soon imma call BS on whole for saying there would be one.
-
Seems there are a bunch of CS members who would like a ZPS server.
Yet, no server...
Ok. Fine.
Seems members are getting tired of waiting. Rightfully so. Promised this how long ago?
So. IF you did not want to do a ZPS server, why not say so in the first place, instead of stringing members along, and being annoying while doing it?
IF you do want one, then why have you guys not delivered on your promise? You have the box, the space, the willing admins, and the bandwidth. What say you?
Patience is a virtue. Until it becomes unrealistic.
Yeah, so, its an old game. But its a good one, a free one, and it was still bringing people into the community.
So what if it dies, eventually? No harm to CG, as all games will die eventually.
-
chill your asses out the zps files are installed the problem is
pillz doesnt have filezilla ftp client and i dont think he knows how to use remote desktop
-
Be patient. In most aspects the mod is dead so getting a server up for it isn't quite something I would see as high priority to be honest. Should be up soon hopefully.
-
Set it up with stockmaps and all the source mod first at least, you don't need me to do that really..
-
server isnt coming up some reason
im going to troubleshoot it tommorow (10/10/10)
-
I don't want to see KAT/Slaughterhouse die.. :|
its already dead :'(
but if you want to expand the community getting a zps server isnt the right way to go
/thread
-
yes, but every server we have doesnt have to expand the community.
some should be just fun.
