Own Server?

[James_UK]

Was thinking perhaps we could get our own Desi Clan server?

I know what your thinking, "But James you silly boy, it costs lots of Money"!

But I've had a look around and it's not as expensive as you think *)

I've been recommended http://www.gameservers.com/ you can get a 15 slot, 100 tic server for $29.95 or £15 a month.

So if we can get 15 or us, it's only £1 a month each.

What you all think?

i'd be very much up for the idea,i think Kayz was saying he wants to wait till he finishes uni though before he does it,but i've been involved with about 3 servers before, so i know the score here in there (this was with enemy territory though), but if it goes ahead, i'm in.

[James_UK]

Yeh think I probably agree with Kayz, both at the same Uni lol

But keep your thoughts coming people.

Depends if people going to chip in some money for the server. By the looks of it.. Desi Clan has grown quite a bit when it first started.

[Rizolicious]

Riz, James, Kayz, T, Baz, VDK, Pliskin, Marnithat is if everybody is willing = £1.87 P/Mif 1 or 2 don't want to,it would only be around £2.50 P/M

[Rizolicious]

sorry, the enter button at work doesn't put it to a new line for some reason.

[Spider Pig]

yeh I be up for it, we need to start some clan games man

[Iroquois Pliskin]

Yeah me too.

Playin in other servers just attracts random people and even though you try vote banning them more join!

[Kayz]

Yep very soooon peepole very soon!

[Voodookid]

i cant afford 2.50/m ryt now!! so im out :D

[Kayz]

i cant afford 2.50/m ryt now!! so im out :D

everyone's in dont worry about it.. os will take care of it im sure if we ask him nicely.

[Iroquois Pliskin]

what desperate measures you mods take? lol

[Rizolicious]

lol, i wouldn't even mind paying something towards it even if O.S. says no, as i'd like to be part of it and stuff. but it should be cool.

[James_UK]

Right I've been told 66 Tic is good enough which means its even cheaper!

For a 14 slot server it costs just $20.95 or in English £10.50!!!!!!! That's a bargain.

If we can get 14 of us its about 70p a month each. You can find 70p at the back of your sofa lol.

[Spider Pig]

by good enough does it mean there could be a possibility it will flop sometimes? lol

might as well get one that will have minimal lag, im sure everyone wouldn't mind coughin up a couple of quid a month for a good gamin experience.

but yeh im up for whatever the majority votes :d

[James_UK]

Well im not really sure but they say 100 tic is better than 66 tic but on such a small server id be surprised if you saw the difference.

[Rizolicious]

yea you may aswell pay that bit extra for better,
and to be honest, i can't see us finding 14,
but even with 7, as i said its only gonna be about £3 a month, which i don't think is too major is it?

[DJ Popz]

I think for those of us who don't know what tics are and how they affect a server it might be worthwile explaining it in detail a bit.

[Iroquois Pliskin]

who gives a damn.. just as long as its not lagging and its worth it.

[Spider Pig]

yeh I always wondered which ones were tics and which ones were tacs? especially when you get them in all white, someone explain lol :d
