I find the server frequently during certain hours daily. There are many servers with 30+ players and I have never seen a decrease in the quality of gameplay. Its a popular server and I thouroghly enjoy playing in it however it is difficult to play in the server at peak hours. Thank You for your time.

Some mods are real big and require the game to render a lot and it chews up a lot of what the game can do before it bogs itself down. The size of the mods also dictate how many maps we can use in a rotation before it chokes itself . So there you go its not exactly right but thats the jist of what 's happening and why. On WAW we run 4 Mods the best is ACE Mod (oldest) 11,932 mb The Nam FT Mod is 100,718 mb Modern Weapons is 41,759 The Black Op's Mod is 71,718 coolmd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like to think it is because I was doing too good... Like I said, I like to THINK that. Maybe tonight I can stay is the server for a whole 5 minutes.

I have been playing this server for years and still get the boot. Hopefully someone will start up another for the overflow. I have no idea how a server works or who runs it I am just glad there are people who do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

I will have my tags in a few months, until then I will wait patiently and put up with getting booted when the server is full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards
