if I ran a private server I would put popular areas on seperate servers to save on lag and processing power needed. Private servers usually aren't on state of the art computers since the person hosting would normally not be making any money on it.

I wonder what people could accomplish if they stopped bitching about the class imbalance and coming up with lame-ass suggestions and spent time doing something productive.

Also, LOL @ Acht's moderator status, subtle April Fool's stuff is much better.

i was gonna reply to eli with something similar to bywyd's post, then forgot who i'd be replying to and what a waste of time it would be.

Only bywyd's reply was more applicable towards fishfood than me. But sure kyle, take any shot you can, it doesn't make you seem desperate.

so you'd be running multiple private servers?? do you know how much that would cost provided you have NO income from this game you'd be hosting??

edit:
keep in mind, your road runner internet isn't capable of hosting a somewhat decent server..

"Private servers usually aren't on state of the art computers since the person hosting would normally not be making any money on it."

whether he was replying to you or not, that point still stands. are you going to be dishing out money for a decent server that can handle lots of people, knowing you won't be getting any money from it?

ps. you're one to talk about "taking any shot you can."

Yes, I plan to buy a decent server.
No, I don't plan on using it to host a game exclusively.

Notice I put the word "IF" meaning that in a perfect world, where I had the time, money, and paitence, I would know how to run a private server correctly and for it to handle high amounts of traffic, except of course for the actual private server software needed.


If I had said software, I would use it on my lan and probably wouldn't open it up for external connections because I know what would be required to run it like that and do it well, and I don't see how all that work would benefit me.

Networking on large scales is what I do for a living, please don't lecture me on what can run on what.

Edit; I hear a loud roaring white noise every time I read your posts, fishfood. It's not unlike the roar of a jet engine passing near-by, overhead. It's the noise of the grand cosmic joke left unsaid, the collective "woosh" of every point missed, ever.

I bet........ based off info of the NexusTk server, and knowing that my terminal server here at work, which also runs at least 5 large mail servers, and our phone system server is a piece of [filtered] and does just fine. I know for a fact that it's not hard to run a server, it SUPRISINGLY doesn't take a terrible amount of bandwidth.
