The cussing was *horrible* while i was playing today X_X.
Not only were there people with NAMES I don't want to say. But these people followed up their names with quite a harsh vocabulary. It got so bad I actually left. Thats hard to make me do (So far only one person who T-Bagged me while I was PO'ed and my Router can make me quit a game of Halo xD)

During Maw gatherings, this should not be happening. There is usually at least one person with admin powers there at those times. Look for Iggwilv, McKeeganWRX, Zen, or me (Frnksnbns). If no admin is there, write down the name of the TKer or problem maker and send one of us a PM with the details. We can keep track of these names and keep our eyes open for them and for any further lame stuff they do.

Why dont you come to our server instead? There's almost an admin on all the time it's like a 24/7 maw gathering. Except no one ever comes now.

Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.

That could be because the TUI server is on CE now. ;)

Yeah, I'm going to have to go with that one. It was fun playing No Remorse with you dudes for a while and all, but you need to set your server back up on HPC.

Ya I agree with Master Kim, you guys should move back to Halo PC, if you have an admin then I see why not.

  • 05.31.2006 7:08 PM PDT

I have been suggesting this as well on their forum. People don't play CE, so there is hardly ever anyone on, and so their server will never get anyone on it. It usually never really got anyone, but in regular PC it did sometimes. Besides PC is just more fun IMHO.

But back to servers, most servers unless people start joining no one will. Usually 2 or 3 people have to be there before more will join, but once they do, it fills up quickly. So thats the real problem, but CE will take even longer to fill and it will never get full.

I am pretty sure TUI is going to put it back on regular PC, I just don't know when, and I am not 100% sure.

CE should be like a weekend thing and when everyone or most everyone in the clan can get on. It could be like a weekend special, like a break from the week of regular PC. Something done on special times. But I will admit I love playing CE over the regular version since better people do play CE and the maps are hella more fun, but too bad not many people play it, and I don't know why.

Alright if Iggwilv was here he'd probably say this: deal with it or don't play the server. Igg and the other admins are doing the best they can to moderate the server and due to the proximity of the server to the Official Bungie servers on the server list (when sorted by Name) it's bound to get a lot of people seeing it, and playing it, we've gotten some legit players who come to our server, and enjoy it, they enjoy the friendly atmosphere and the fun gametypes (though we do need more CTF ;))

However...there's also bound to be TKers and trashtalkers coming as well. When this happens I do the following:

1.) I try and stay away from the TKers and take a whole minute to write down their name, and contact an admin if there is none on the server. If they get in my way...I frag em'.

2.) If there's any serious swearing or trashtalking or even whining going on then I just IGNORE it. If it be comes exceedingly racist or insulting, then I write down the offender's name and take the min. to contact an admin, problem solved. Even if they're not on the server 9 times out of 10 an admin will be on X-fire.

Ok 2 easy steps people. That's it. If anything becomes too annoying, then just leave.

Although I do think it should be a permanent ban on first offense. It's hard enough to just get one TK if you're careful, let alone a temporary ban. With the amount of "cooldowntime" set on the server. By the time you get another accidental TK, the TK point you previously had is gone. So I think 1st ban should be perma. That's just my opinion.

I work during the day and can't get on until 6pm. The other admins are in the same, they work during the day. I really need help during the afternooon when I and the others can't be on-line. I also need help paying for the server since the monthly just went up to increase the bandwidth. So if you send me $5 or $10 I will give you the rcon password and you can help clean the server up.

If it continues to be a problem and I don't receive any help, the server will probably go away after the summer.

Hey where should I mail the money to you, Igg? I don't want the server to be gone, it's such a fun place in Halo game lobby to be in. I'll help keep the server up, so wer all can continue to play in it, but where can I mail the money to?

I hope you got my second paypal donation Igg...

I've been on your server more lately and trying to help out, let's try to keep it alive, you have a good thing going here :) I can help out financially a little more if necessary too. It's worth it to support this Maw server.

Thanks Igg for all the time you put in, and I should be on later this afternoon.
