Also where's CSJO :evil:
CSJO was pretty much dead 24/7 too if it wasn't for CS:GO nights, i don't see you commenting on that fact. :U
CSJO continues to see activity, If I recall correctly the TTT server had seen no activity for more than 2 weeks straight when it was shut down. Additionally I'm not the only one who gets people into that server (Which is good cause I'm busy as shit lately), and with the increase in CS:GO interest on J2 (relating to Matchmaking mostly) CS:JO is seeing much better days than TTT was having in the last few months of its life.

Also criticizing CS:JO and then proposing the plan to populate TTT as exactly what I do whenever I host a CS:JO night doesn't sound like very effective. Again, TTT has a smaller playerbase, so it's safe to say if we put a server up and you did exactly what I do for CS:JO it'll see less returns.

Look I really liked playing TTT, but just because you like something doesn't mean it's going to stick around forever, everyone bailed. Same thing that happened with TF4 except much quicker.

UT4 is coming out and will be opensource to a degree we could likely put up a server when it's released or before.

What might be fun is if we could some how automate server creation and removal so users can choose what they want to play and offer it as a resource.

Alright, yeah, if TTT isn't an option (negative nancies, the lot of ya) I'll definitely be down for UT4.

Yay.

A few scattered thoughts:

First of all, I'm sorry this took so long. I've been busy, others have been busy. It sucks.

I'd love more people who want to be involved in j2's future, to work together finding good solutions. Those solutions include me trying to find people who are also capable of maintaining servers because we could use more of that.

We need a new game. Or a new old game. RenX is one thing I want to look into attempting but I want more ideas.
RenX would be rad as absolute fuck, I played the original Renegade a lot as a kid and the remake is the greatest thing in the world. We just wouldn't be able to do things like map for it without us learning Unreal Editor/Engine first. Not the hugest obstacle though, just I worry about those of us (like myself) who can barely run anything UDK3 or higher. I especially worry about this for UT4 though, I think RenX compared to that would be manageable and it wouldn't be hard for people to upgrade a comp that's having trouble running it.

Also I could help with managing servers now that I've got a lot of experience after having been the web panel/ftp manager and head admin of the main MXS server and also the Police VS Aliens offshoot. I've also got a lot of experience just being a regular admin now just from moderating the other 4 servers and forum when I happen to be on. Though the Minecraft thing a year back was obviously a fiasco :'v.

Baxter informed me CSJO is being set up, specifically by someone I will enjoy blaming whenever something goes wrong.

Hopefully it'll be back soon and I can get the maps and everything back, maybe the map vote function too since it'll be a fresh install.
