Server jobs / map rotation

Funbocks is mostly running unsupervised. I check the console occasionally, but can't be there all the time. So far I haven't heard any complaints, but I'd still like to appoint admins.
Basically, you'd watch the server for abuse and other dickishness and punch players in the face if they're being assholes. One very important aspect that this job entails is that you do not, under any circumstances, kick or ban for personal reasons. I take this very serious. Do not punish players who happened to kill you or play in a way that you don't like. I watch the watchmen.

If you do ban someone, I'd like to know about it. We have no rules for the server. "Don't be a dick" is all there is to it.

Radfahrer seems to be the most active player right now. How about it?



Now for the map rotation. We are currently running stock maps with some exceptions, along with CanyonPro, SavannahPro, Warzone and Seaport in a random rotation. I'd like there to be more custom maps, but can't be arsed to actually play the game to know which ones are worthy.

So. I'd like to appoint someone responsible for the map rotation, to ensure that it stays fresh and interesting. All this job would entail is editing the levelrotation.xml and telling me which maps to upload, if they aren't already.

Who's up for that? Bane?

Hi,

I'll happily apply. Been playing way too much a lot lately and also dived a bit into server setup and administration.
Matter of factly I was going to ask anyway, if I could use the server for a little event I got planned for mid-May.

Also got a pretty good idea for which community maps are popular right now, as well as the ones, where people go "meh!".

Cheers,

Dhal

I'm cool with Dhal helping out with the map rotation.

Given that FB seems to be pretty popular I was thinking we could potentially let it be used as a community map test bed, maybe stick new ones in on a two week rotation to let the player base get a feel for them.

As for adminning, if a few of us get access to Rcon and are just availible it should sort itself out.

server =CJW=Funbocks Alpha|official maps:

I ask, to exchange maps TC_Altay to another. Still this map have some problems , unbalance .

And in any case, you must update the list of maps (levelrotation) on the server. For a long time did not update the maps.

And maybe add a few good maps there from community, then rotate on new and etc.

The point of that server is to run official maps. There is another for mixed maps.
Which is what the people wanted.



-I would if I could, but I can't so I won't.

I should probably merge them again. Nobody bloody plays on Beta.

Cue complaints about how a second server is needed.
