I mean we are probably deviating from the OP here now...Pete just because you personally hate me because i said your code is **** ( open up eden elite source its ******* terrible ) so it's not like im lying, don't come here putting a shitter on Valk, i have 0 to do with this server just a fan of the files as they completely **** on everything since Marble.
Funny how Jamie hasn't got a massive company or **** but he made Marble and Zircon run just fine with 0 crash's after just a few weeks lul... Same with Samuel on Acem2 / Chronicles.
Don't be sour because your server only peaked 100 users when there was literally not a other server up or being advertised it just goes to show how sloppy your work really is.
As for 100% stability was maybe a bit of a reach but it was hardly crashing before it closed and it can be done i'm sure, atleast there was somebody ALWAYS at hand to reboot. Was actually gob smacked when prim was pulling 170+ users and i found out if it crashes during the night most of the time it won't be put back up, someone needs hiring for that always.
But you brought me back into it :P
Yeah bad move by me i guess on that (the late night crashes occurred later down the line but still not really excusable - finding people you can trust with your files is quite difficult) - I mean you can automate it, but then it just hits the same crashes, but thats for another conversation.
and from what people were saying Valk was crashing ... and sometimes multiple times, I would prefer to have a big downtime window and the crash be fixed, then the server firing backup and crashing all the time.
The reason they worked, is because they built their source from the ground up, and are damn well good coders, a lot of coders here (not all) are hobbyists, so don't do things optimally, they do it the best way they have learned.
I mean this is why the community is dwindling, is the sheer level of toxic attitude towards people who contribute and code servers to try and keep the game alive and for peoples enjoyment.
