I'm not one for words, but this paranoid/lotr/mako on repeat constantly is just awful. We want the old maps where teamwork is required, and you use more than the W and E buttons to run and use materias/weapons!

TL;DR OLDFAGS WANT OLDFAG SERVER

Agreed, but no need for a new server, just make it so they can't be on 80%

Just because I haven't been around SG for that long doesn't mean I didn't play elsewhere.

If we get a 2nd server and only put old maps on, it'll be empty most of the time, until the 4 people who want to play old maps 24/7 decide to play for 5 minutes, then bitch when people join who don't fulfill their nostalgic memory of old map players

It will most likely not live long, just like if we did vice versa and had all the new maps move to a 2nd server. It will also die, a 2nd ze server just never works for some odd reason.

Hey, if you guys won't spend the resources on this, can I? I host servers, and I'd have no problem setting one up, the only problem is getting the information to the oldfags

When you made that post, the server was full playing ze_rooftop_escape. Then we changed to ze_I_Am_Legend and it was still full. Hell, it's full when we're playing Biohazard and deathstar. Stop kissing Minas Tirith's ass.

It was full on atix helicopter, boat escape and elevator escape before that aswell :P

However, I agree with what has been posted already, it would most likely die out

Support. But note, it's easy to say "I want old ze server back" but its another thing when you actually have it and its succesful. So make sure to fill it up if we get it. Tell all your friends in your friends list to join if necessary.

I have some friends who play ZE, and I'm sure the cool kids who support this would be able to help too. And as I asked earlier, if this is rejected, can I host one and give the IP to the oldfags who want it? I'm not asking for it to be an SG server, just not to get bantarded if I give the IP to certain players ..

I would love for something like this to happen, but it wouldn't... The server would be dead 90% of the time.

something that might work out without having to spend cash is make it so every friday or something they only old school maps.

Who says they'd be spending cash?

Tbh after how well today went I think a regulated old school map day (once a week, once every two weeks, once a month, up to you) like BWGT would be good. The old maps would hopefully attract interest from the newer players and get populated while the older population could satisfy their nostalgia one day at a time. It's better than adding in another 30+ slot dedicated server on an already cramped dedicated box that will just divide the player base more than it has been divided. So yeah, it's a no and a yes.

24/7 Oldfag maps = I stay on the server longer and don't quit when minas gets voted. The old map day was awesome, best time I've had in a long time.
