I see some good replies here. Especially Alexina's or Finito's. Many good ideas for brainstorming. I guess so far we discovered some good reasons to why this is happening, but how to prevent it? Obviously Interlude seems shit. I believe so and from replies you posted there wasn't any argument on that. So what can be done then to change this situation for better? What is in your opinion core contributor to having a successful (and lasting) server? Finito said uniqueness. Do you mean customs by that? There can be all kinds of uniqueness. From ig features like zones, items, special npc's to web features (like dynamic signatures or nwatch for example), events, etc... I got some ideas of my own but I'd really love to hear more from you guys.

Are you after aged domains or new ones? If you're looking for aged domains let me know, I've got tons of them. Cheap too

This certainly explains why all the top servers are like that. Good answer, keep them coming.

Obviously my reputation is not at question here. If it was I would never have gotten those 800 in first day that I did. Nor would they be pming me now asking if I intend to reopen yet another server. Saying they do remember stuff... is that why they're going to vendetta for ... I don't even know which time anymore? Obviously this is not the case. FYI, you started talking shit about me in the first place (l2mxc forum, remember? I still got screenshots somewhere). You get exactly the kind of "friendliness" you asked for.

Why was I not surprised that you will write some shit like this when I saw you reading this thread? Get the fuck out of it and go lick someone's ass and then shittalk him behind his back (like you did with me). Serious replies requested now.

Please read to the end of this post before you make a reply. Let me begin. Somewhere in July I started getting pms from old players that I should open an Interlude servers cause there isn't any good ones around. I ignored it at first but after bunch of pm's and some encouragment from old helpers I decided to give it a go. In september I started planning on a new x70 Interlude server. I thought carefully about features, picked datacenter, setup website, got staff together. All the required things. In december server was ready. I launched it on 11th of December. Got about 800 people on first day. Immediately problems start happening. GM who's main purpose was a webdesigner let me down. No php code that we talked about was done. None. This was quite a big stepback for me since I had many things planned for the community and they simply were not done. Had to let him go since a person that promise something and lets me down is useless as a staffer. 2nd day of the server I receive a huge ddos attack from a person blackmailing me for money. This ended quickly as I did not even respond to him and he most likely just moved somewhere else. In a few days one of gms gets in a dispute with a clan leader. Jails him for extremely bad reason (personal resentment I guess). While pushing him further I discovered he's basically making up excuses which do not make much sense. Had to let him go as well. In a few days players from HSA clan discover a bug with noblesse manager where you would acquire free goldbars and rebound coins (my custom currency). Their chars ended being banned until they were inspected. I immediately corrected the bug and went inspecting if there's anything else that could be abused. It wasn't. Almost immediately after the ban I started getting threats HSA will quit unless I unban their chars. I notified them prior to that that is what I intend to do but it seems they somehow did not get that (internal lack of communication?). DDos and syn attacks start. Since I was occupied with constant ddos and syn attacks other developing suffered. Keeping server up is #1 priority. I later discovered it was HSA behind it. They actively denied it however I got solid evidence it was them (or rather one of their core members). They even admitted it themselves on l2-vendetta forums. Not long after a VERY RUDE forum thread is posted on the forum by one of their core members (same person I suspect was the lead behind the attacks) how much the adena exploit is my fault. How dare I ban their chars, that it's completely my fault if they bug abused and other crap. They even pointed out they were banned because they were turks and called me a racist. Basically he made it sound like I forced them to bugabuse and forbid them to report it to me. Douchebag obviously got banned. Immediately syn attacks escalated. I handled that as well. Anyway, they got 2nd chance, their chars ended up being unbanned but not for a long time as they constantly provoked me with shit and talked crap until all of them got banned. They then went around spreading shit that server is closing which made a huge part of community believing them and made them quit themselves. Huge loss of players. Next thing on the line. VE clan quits. Supposingly because they "lag too much". I believe this was just an excuse for not being competitive to QB as there were plenty of other Portuguese players without (major) lag. They made it clear they will not come back until I move server to EU. ddos and syn attacks still escalate. Forum is filled with shit constantly. Its holidays time yet I urgently look for a new DDOS protected datacenter in EU. Extremely pain in the ass to get even during normal hours as choice in EU is crappy crap. Bandwidth is way more expensive so theres almost no affordable choices here. Now try doing it during holidays. In a few days I got the box. I moved it. Not many players come back since they broke their gear. VE isn't coming back because they went to play aion (lol what?!) Other players are fed up with the delays of implementing custom armor and custom farming zone but keeping the server up due to syn/ddos comes first. Since I see many not coming back I think about a possibility of a rollback. I decide against it due to many complaint. I go with "I will check backup database and restore your items manually" option. I receive about 300 emails (EMAILS, not char requests. There were possibly 700-1000 char requests) to recover. I get a headache but start doing it. I get dumbshit requests constantly of people asking me to restire +16 gear and shit. Obviously this was the point they broke it and wanted the -1oe gear back. Since database did not show items at that time I do not recover them. Only those I see. This makes me a "bad guy". Vim you're a #$%#%# and a #$%#$5 and a #$5 and go %#$% yourself. Some even made it this far as to ask me for a refund of items that they broke IN FRONT of me 5min ago. OOOR got it refunded, broke it and then quitted again. Obviously this had no purpose anymore so I stopped doing it. I decide to do a wipe since there were like 50-100 people online at different times hoping it'd bring them back for a 2nd chance. I do it. But heeey. Vendetta is opening in a week. Nobody is coming back because they are now waiting for Vendetta instead. They say "-beep- rebound" and go to Pyro. Play there for 2 days. His server is screwed over by ddos. People bitch about lag and start quitting. He opens donations they bitch about donations and quit further. Rebound is a ghost server, Vendetta is soon to be. I get a pm on msn "Vim are you making an interlude server? There isn't any good ones right now" I thought I was going to flip and hammer that person into a wall. I worked my ass of for Rebound. When other people were getting stone drunk and lying down in trenches due to too much consumed alcohol I was up till morning hours almost every day making sure server's up. First sign of trouble players quit using any excuse they possibly can to hop servers. Same happened with servers before me and is now happening to l2-vendetta. WHAT THE -beep- is WRONG with you people? I would REALLY like to have an explanation for this shit that like 90% of population is doing. Why do you keep on saying "there is no good servers" if when somebody DOES try to make a difference you just shit all over it. I maybe got like 10, maybe 20 TOPS "thank you" on during two month period and perhaps 10.000+ insults. Even bigger problem is when I do ask for help from community. Almost every staffer I recruited so far was shit aka "all the talk no action" or literally did shit (good example is with servantes, panucci and lith) which just caused me trouble. Even as we speak I got another message on msn with "when u will make other l2 ? now us are playing a -beep-ing l2 khadia". What the hell is the deal with this thing? And don't even mention the "-beep- YOU VIM YOU ONLY MAKE SERVERS FOR MONEY". I'm an internet marketer and get most of my income from there. In a week promoting products I make more money than an l2 server makes in 1-2 months. So do not bullshit me with that crap. On top of that, I spend TWO months working non stop. Hard, stressful and ungrateful work on Rebound and all I got in return is a load of mind-beep-ing comments and a huge negative red number on paypal due to disputes. So, somebody with some brainpower. Explain this. Thanks. Why are interlude players so keen on -beep-ing things up at any cost? Should I satisfy with the line that I received and says "this is what you get for opening an interlude x70 servers. Interlude community is comprised of the biggest idiots you can find. Stop interlude. Go GF or freya" All I want is run a freaking xxxx number people server with the knowledge I possess and have them show some gratitude. This bullshit I receive in the end for all my effort put in is just insulting. So, somebody? Explain this madness! p.s. Just to be clear. This is a HUGE wall of text but it's only a SUMMARY. Which means there are LOTS of other things I skipped out. They are there nonetheless and depending on how this discussion evolves I'll make sure to mention those as well.

They update on Freya and the old bot dont work any mre pls help me!

Help me out here pls. I seend you aprivate msg or just tape it here pls.

Any1 can post bot or any exploit for this server!

Now selling again for GAMESITES200. Hopzone coming soon.

No, right now my coder is updating the voting software so it takes less resources to vote. Once it's done I'll start selling again.

First two suck cock. Overuse on templates and same effects. Third one is practically a legend already. It went viral so darn fast. Almost everyone that's involved with this kind of things knows about this movie. Great footage, excellent use of effects. Synchronization is nearly perfect. *hat off* I'm particularly surprised on where he got all of that footage. I got some of my own and I must say, it's a bitch to get it. Especially when you see the quality of his. High FPS at all times, shittons of players. Alt+h. Getting high fps is especially hard. When you do slow-mo (which he does a lot) you need almost double the fps at times to get a flowing video and with high amount of players l2 simply starts to suck. Not pc's fault but of L2 itself.

Scammer? It does not matter what he is or isn't. It doesn't matter what you do in spare time either. Nobody gives a fuck. What DOES matter is the fact you agreed to pay me that small fee and now you're evading it and making up excuses to clear up your sorry ass reputation. Even more, you're making up shit like "I wasn't on this msn" "I got new msn" and other shit when it's CLEAR and PROVEN in THIS THREAD that is a lie as well. Fucking douchefag. Which part you do not get? You ARE a scammer. I will NOT stop calling you a scammer since you DID scam me (and others). It was NOT the first time either (remember the banners? I sure as hell do) and by the looks of it I wasn't the only one either. Even maxtor banned your sorry ass once before. Maybe I should go and remind him of that. This isn't even about the money. It's 15€ nontheless lol. It's about principles. You kept bitching how trustworthy person you are, that you aren't gonna scam me, that I should trust you more and shit and then end up behaving EXACTLY how I expected you to. Like a little immature prick. Not only that, you're trying to act like some e-thug thinking ANYONE is afraid of you. The fuck is with that lol. You'd be grateful if I stopped? Well I'd be grateful if you pulled your head out of your ass and see the reality. Nobody buys your bullshit and nobody likes you either. You could of had easily avoided all of this if you just acted maturely. If you couldn't pay up, you could of had let me know that and I'd understand and I'd be cool about it. But heck, acting like the way you do is the WORST possible way. Do you wanna threaten me? Go ahead, see what happens lol. You're not the first person to do that mistake and you won't be the last one either.

Yes, that is his msn. Just drop it on your host and you'll have your preview lol. No installation needed.

FUCK OFF with your excuses already. It's been MORE than 45 days since I send you the rar. Fourty five days. You were supposed to pay in couple of days. A week max. that's SEVEN (7) days. You have my paypal. Pay up and cut the bullshit then. Fucking excuses and bullshit 24/7. Jesus. It's simple. a) You pay -> You're not a scammer b) You do NOT pay -> you make up all kinds of shit (which you are) -> You ARE a scammer Get it? No amount of bullshit will get you out of this.

DUUUUUUUDE stop lying already. Damn you're pathetic. I know for a FACT that you WERE online on your msn. After two weeks I pm'ed you asking about those 15€ and you just made some excuse you don't have money yet. Few days ago I pmed you again (after month and a half). No reply so I presume you blocked me. You WERE online because others told me you are. You are a -beep-ing pathetic lying trash. What's even more pathetic is the fact you called me an idiot and keep making excuses. Kissass when you need something from me and fuck it when you need to pay up. That's how you are. We do not even need to talk, you know my paypal, WHY haven't you payed yet? Because you're a lying little scamming cunt that's why. I offered to do something infront, I trusted you will stick to the deal, you -beep-ed me up and now you make up lies about it. If you want to clear your name then pay up. You know my paypal. I gave it to you.

;D

Topic: never bored of this? (Read 24 times) Bored of this for sure. Learn the fucking difference already.

So, I'd like to share this website. It was originally sent to me by endart aka narda. He asked me to integrate it with cutenews for 15€ but since he scammed me I'm sharing it. He was bitching so much how he's trusthorthy (he scammed me before when we were negotiating a deal with maxtor for banners) and that I should give him another chance. I agreed to do it first and he could pay me off in a couple of days. No sign of narda on my msn (he's online plenty :)) for about month and a half now so I'm most likely blocked. Stay away from that pricky little scammer. Anyway, here are the files. http://hotfile.com/dl/74586343/7fea59f/narda.rar.html It looks good, but design itself is piece of shit. Coding is poor, structure is even poorer. Still, some of you scrubs may be able to use it. Enjoy.

Actually no. It's not dizzan behind it this time. It's Kumo, one of members from original dismay that got his ass kicked out due to insane corruption. Well, him mostly. There is also his brother who's just as same douche as he is. Proves: #1 l2extreme.us was stolen from godaddy account which was owned by rey. Kumo had access to it. #2 Website layout closely resembles that of L2Dismay's (Kumo did design it after all). Even the font in the title is the same. #3 Nickname rack being reused once again (same as on that failed server l2lad or whatever it was) which was advertised through kumo. I could probably find more but who cares lol. It's obvious. Stay away. Reasons: It happened on Extreme, it happened on Dismay, on L2Lad and you can be damn sure it will happen on this "extreme" as well.

The first nobody that pm's me will receive a FREE link to a website FILLED with discount coupons! http://www.fatwallet.com/forums/hot-deals/725207/

MXC still full of dickery I see. Hillarious. Not the dots, but the fact how somebody can be such a fucktard ;)

Gamesites200: reserved for 1st and 2nd of october. about 300-500 votes free daily after that. Hopzone: Reserved for 1st of october. 200 votes free from 2nd to 5th. 400-500 free after 5th. Others are available normally (500-1000 votes daily on average). If you're serious you can get a test vote. I'll do 10-30 votes and then you can buy the rest.

I can now do hopzone as well! It's a bit slow though which makes HU votes a bit expensive. Working on optimizations hehe :)
