I have noticed that a lot of big OT's get big only because they have many players..when syntax made a thread regarding banning rl maps from being downloaded I completely disagreed at first now im starting to realize where hes coming from..I see guys that can barely port forward yet have 200+ players on a completely default map...am I whining about it not really just think its hilarious how fail some people truly are.
I guess im giving props to all the people that can host and actually know what their doing.
What can you do as a player to know if your joining a server hosted by a 13 year old that can barely tie his shoes?
1. Lag much? if so thats the first sign..hes hosting on his moms laptop.
2. Did he make a website with nothing fixed but the donations while hosting a brand new server?
99% of the time someone will release a default server right off these forums then work on it...no one starts a brand new ot as a beginner with a dedicated server. (If only the distros released here werent idiot proof, there would be only excellent OT's) Thats why no one should need a donor system before releasing some decent quests, fixing bugs, etc.
That means hes more focused on getting some cash quick rather than focusing on making a great OT.
(Donate for GM? LOL thats a red flag.)
3. Claiming they have all these special discounts on their donates...LOL, what is there to say..the prices will be average still trust me.
I have been scammed out of over 100$ (NAROZIA SUX) just trying to give some people a heads up.
So before u go donating around know what kind of OT your going to get first!!
No, im not advertising my ot (collapser was pwn, kiwi was pwn (if they still have that custom map), deception was pwn, lot of nice servers out there. But waaaay too many terrible ones.
btw the list is more/less a joke lol.
sry I had to let it out
