Why do we have this PVKii server?

Post by Guardian » Thu Jan 15, 2009 12:21 am

Over the years year I've been at the ville I've noticed many servers of different games come and die and become converted to different games.

However I have never seen this server filled with people with at any point in time ever (I go on the ville when I'm bored at school so I hardly miss any time). Most servers I've seen at least one person on but not this one :? .

We lost our Insurgency server recently which looked like it lacked it's glory but at least it had people a couple times now and again.

Yet this server survives somehow.

So basically why are we runninng a server which oddly enough never has people on it? Is there a secret time you get on when Guardian is asleep and you know he can't see the server is filled?

its a free server that someone is running for us. The Ville pays nothing for the server, so why get rid of it to pay for a different server?

We had about 6 people on last weekend. It was quite enjoyable. It's a fun game but it hasn't become too big yet.

[/quote]I was under this mindset until Dog set me straight yesterday - free server = no complaints. And plus, with custom maps on the server now, that might help draw people in to it again.

Quick thought - maybe we should label the server name to show that it's got customs on it now?
I am the 1%!

I'll have to check with Blown to see if he put the pvk_dragon_attack beta on there.

Dude! :hb:

Ya I knew it was a free game. I still don't understand why we don't convert it.
