friedrice 8 #1 Posted June 9, 2009 I just wanted to point out to all you complainers that the stat server has been down for over a month, and people play just the same. Few rush to the point when the clock is ticking down, or push the cart unless the area is completely clear and no one is in sight. On another note, is the stat server ever going to go up? I found my old Athlon 3200 processor that fits into a Socket 939 motherboard, which I'd be willing to donate. The processor may be old but with a little love and good thermal lube, I think she's up to the task. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FunkyFresh 68 #4 Posted June 9, 2009 I wish. I'd rather have stats that take 24hr or 48hr to process rather than no stats at all. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spartan_0214 18 #8 Posted June 9, 2009 People don't typically play as a team when stats are up. I'd actually rather not have a stats server, period. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rydawg 14 #9 Posted June 9, 2009 I want stats, though only for the sole purpose so we can all finally see how awesome suckylife is at this game Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melissia 7 #10 Posted June 9, 2009 I don't miss the stats. Me either really... I don't pay any real attention to them anymore, although I can't claim that I ever gave them serious thought anyway. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Lorax 25 #12 Posted June 9, 2009 I'm conflicted about the stats. I liked the fact that I could see my performance over time and compared to others. However, stat whoring brought out the worst in the teams, and I have had more fun since they've been down simply because people don't give a damn about whether or not they win. It allows people to be a little more laid back and calm. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

friedrice 8 #15 Posted June 10, 2009 People don't typically play as a team when stats are up. I'd actually rather not have a stats server, period. Stacking does not count as teamwork, just an fyi. Note that I'm not complaining about stacking. Personally I miss... stats. It was awesome to see what maps you are the best at, who you've killed the most and who kills you the most, among other things. I also think that stats can push you to be better. But that's my an opinion. Continue your stat-hate posts Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Henry Spencer 117 #16 Posted June 10, 2009 Stats were bragging rights for me in -G-; Bearclaw and I were always really close together, and we always had fun kicking ass. Then he disappeared, and I really don't care anymore. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It would be slow... but the server itself is not as much a problem as putting the server somewhere with enough bandwidth. I'm conflicted about the stats.

It allows people to be a little more laid back and calm. There's actually been a bunch of improvements that I made to stats but could never push out. Ranging from more team focused point gains as well as spy/medic improvements (spy due to the fake kill update and all). The stats plugin has also been improved greatly, it's response time has been reduced to milliseconds. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mana, i have a older P4 1.8ghz 512mb ram, with Widows Server 2003 on it, I would be willing to host it, i would just need help setting it up and stuff, My ISP doesn't limit my bandwith per month, my ISP speeds are 7mbps down and 768 kbps up.

Let me know The upload is too low . That and the stats were REALLY slow on a 3.8 GHZ P4 with Hyper Threading :X. The amount of servers to retrieve stats from needs a more robust server (Dual core or so) . Thanks for the offer anyway. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for the offer anyway. well i'm upgrading my computer, so i would have a ASUS P5LD2 mobo with a Intel Core 2 Duo E4400 stock 2.0ghz i've oc'ed it to 2.8 ghz. I'm keeping my ram, powersupply, harddrive, but i could donate the mobo, a 7600GS videocard the processer, if someone has a place to run it.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
friedrice 8 #24 Posted June 12, 2009 Actually I know a business where I could stash a server, although I don't know what the connection speeds are. I assume at least T1, but not sure if it's particle or full. Short of calling the ISP, any "reliable" way to find out? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You could just do a speed test and get a rough idea (go to speedtest.net) that is if you can be at the location and run a computer and test. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
