I'm with Dugs. If anyone has been banned it's been RusArmy cuz he's kinda a dick sometimes but that has nothing to do with where he is from.
News:
There's a new version of War2Observe that fixes the crash issue,

1) Who is Rit? Ritalin? Idk anyone's names on here.
2) Tourney won't work. At least not in the sense of new people. Returning? MMAAAYYYBEEEEE but they have to believe they will come back, "unrust" and beat top players at this point..... far fetched. Otherwise in regards to lesser tier tourneys with new names, you can bet your ass existing players will play.
3) Server page works fine. I think there is an old one and a new one? http://server.war2.ru/status/
4) You just named 80% of the issue yourself and you have it as well. "My time is pretty limited nowadays"
5) Telling people to go to GoG, an even more dead server is not a good idea (posted before as well). Bot should have been there in the 1st place advertising war2.ru.
People, use your money wisely. Do not advertise and spend money on a game that has 23 people on average on it during the summer months. Wait until fall/winter.
Your requests:
1) iL doesn't give access to almost anyone except our new admin who is RUS and went MIA.
2) Access again/Request for iL to do
3) Access again/Request for iL to do
4) War2 Festival was a yearly thing for a while, people did come back but short term only; I want to say. It is more along the lines of what Tk is saying. Promotion of fun does not entice most good players. People who play for "fun" now have a hard time on the server already. We don't need to cater to good players though, so that works if you can get that target market.
5) Everyone has ideas and very few will do anything. I think it's mostly accepted that it is what it is and it is a dying game with the same old people. Too old, too little dedication, too busy, too little, too late. Few people have the motivation to do anything and even if so, keep doing it. Most won't be on the same page in terms of organizing and operation.
There is also a lack of leadership. I don't necessarily mean admins per se but just leadership in general.
Duda's league is fun. I see more people joining that.
I know I've been basically 98% pessimistic with my response but year after year after year after year I hear the same thing and nothing happens.

The "bot" will be running all day as I'm leaving soon. So, feel free to disconnect/boot me or something after that. It's been pretty dead the last few days but hopefully enough people come out. Good luck.

« on: July 01, 2021, 03:01:35 PM »
I won't lie, I agree, .RU does scare a lot of people, I think (at least from the US). I apologize if that is disrespectful, as we very much appreciate iL hosting the server. To be 100% honest, I don't even feel fully comfortable with the program as many have pointed out the holes in its security. The virus flag doesn't help either, agreed. I've had enough people say, they aren't port forwarding because of the security risk. (I know we have HP now but somehow not everyone has it nor have I looked into how it functions)
I said before, there should have been a bot on GoG telling people everyone plays on .RU. That would have been a nice boost.
I agree with EQ, there are X amount of people that I think keep this game afloat. ESN and EQ are definitely the people who host the most in the evening. Both have taken long times off though. But a year ago or so, we had a lot more people playing in the evening/night. That has died down very much.
I think you could name maybe 20 people who keep this server alive with their activeness. If those 20 left, I think it would greatly hurt the community.
Here are some players we miss in the last couple of years who used to play a good amount and don't anymore or went part time: (not part of that 20 necessarily)
Braviet
Wargasm (activity has been very low),
Joe
Jordan
OM
Lone
Many [is] players
Teaboy recently at least compared to daily (maybe on aka?),
Talrand (plays a tiny bit at night sometimes, used to play a lot)
Farts (full time to very part time)
Shade
K()IN[is]
LetsRemake
Max.X.Overkill (very part time)
sepi
lego
van
Kore
burnt
ripe
warbux
startale
youngsta
Sparkz
Strata
Zeke (on sometimes),
POIUYT,
Hagentyne
BHC-Master (smurf?)
Rasak (spelling this incorrectly)
Slacher
JamesMcgill (smurfs?)
Alf (much less)
Tyrus (rarely)
Ring62 (smurfs?)
Tabac[man]- used to play sometimes, now I don't see at all
Spuds
BHC-Butcher
Disgruntled
PBRMEASAP
OuinTheLegend
Letsremake
Badfingaz (few years now)
Player (I believe was gone for a couple of years? Also biggest smurf so...)
CEL (plays on GoG now with people who don't play on RU) and/or smurf
This is just the people I can recall off hand from the last 2ish years. I rarely play during the day though, so probably a bit more. I'm sure there are a lot of choppers and other people I don't play with so much. I'm also sure a lot of people who used to play on their names are on akas.
The day seems to be busy enough that it isn't as dependent on a few people.

I think TK hit the nail on the head. Old players will diminish over time. Honestly, counterintuitively speaking, it might work the opposite way. If you have a lot more new players and a more active community, you may get a lot of old players back. Remember, not all players coming back have to be top tier. Naturally, there will always be a high population of average players. Hence the word average, ha.
TK that is a lot of money to spend. If you are going to cut corners, imo, spend less on the top tier players. They can play for w/e money we already provide and many play for the competition. We don't get many top tier players coming back for tournaments anyways. That was only for Burnts and that is long gone.
New players don't have enough new players to play with, so yes, there needs to be a higher population of them at once, I agree. 50 is quite an aggressive and admiral goal but even 15 would be suffice.
For the tournament you could even put, people with 1-3 months of ever playing the game qualify only, games work just as well if not better. (Tora IP check), this way, if they are interested enough, they will play for that long and by that time they either like they game or they don't. Random hasted thought. No pun intended.

Well we just pushed away that Danny guy, who, by the looks of his stream, coulda been a damn good player. Not sure how we are going to get new players unless we get them in bunches.
Everyone (a lot of ppl) complains about the lack of people yet they aren't on very much.... I mean.... if you want to have more people, then be online. You can't all log on once a week and complain. More people are on here part time than they've been. It's slowly been going down, covid or not.

« on: June 15, 2021, 05:31:18 PM »
Rofl, I love that "hack" too. The SPB one is probably the most used by far. It's mostly when he isnt in the games because, when he is, there is a 90% chance he will say it anyways. It always gets noobs on "has left the game", hence why it worked on viet.
