The Flush
Sorry guys but I disagree completely with Cobra and Nut...what's the trouble or hassle in having two mods...if your beloved old mod with the old shitty maps still works so well, play on it. That is the main complain I hear from people on the old server is that the same maps have been around forever. The new mod is still in beta and admittedly still needs work (hence BETA) and people seem to gravitate towards that mod first because of the new map selection (in my opinion). Just as everything else, there are bugs to work out but it is A BETA TEST right now. How exactly does that turn people away from XI servers altogether? Having a new beta server doesn't affect the old mod at all, it's still there and is still running the same way it always has. The beautiful part of it is you can choose which mod you want to play. If you guys are simply mad or frustrated because not as many people play the old mod as the new, that's part of the excitement of having a new mod come out. There is a reason that people are choosing that mod first so just because you don't like that its there doesn't mean that others don't. Am I missing something or is there another reason that you think people won't play XI servers?
Hands down our guys and gals run the best servers in the business. People will ALWAYS play our servers before others so I don't see people leaving altogether because they are trying new things and coming out with new mod options. IMHO.
I for one like the new mod (except the lag and various map issues of course which will get sorted out I'm sure as the beta evolves) so keep up the hard work Sammy and Rugger!

I agree with what you are saying, and its not the mod I have any problems with, or the maps either. But when the server lags or crashes you are just inviting peeps to play another game or server.
Keep in mind losing people on COD4 at this point because of the age of the game can be permanent. I guess that was the point I was trying to make.
