This is so insightful and inspiring. Thank you for sharing this with us.

You're expecting a bunch of old men doing things that they're not used to or really care for. The game is over 15 years old now. We've tried events before, and the only one that ever goes well is the Fallen Member event. It needs proper planning and also discussion within the game with the players and what they'd like going on. It's their server as much as it is ours. If there's no interest then no point in doing it. A lot of the players in CoD2 don't read the forums and due to their age not even know how to use it. We have to remind some of them to log in every now and then! The only visitors to the forums on a daily basis would be us admins. If I am doing any changes to the server such as the rotation I let the guys know at least a month in advance and do weekly reminders on the weekends. With regards to Saturdays that's the TDM lot and we're very much stuck in our ways of just doing TDM and some CTF. You're better off sorting it out for a weeknight as the DM team will be down for that. It helps to know the audience

As someone who was severaly depressed and suicidal a good 5-6 years ago now, I can tell ya, it isn't easy. I really feel for you fuckstick, going through that loss of a friend in such a way is terrible. I almost offed myself a few years ago, planned it out and everything but the one thing that stopped me was that I didn't want my mom to be sad. And such a silly sounding thing was the one key thing that kept me on this earth. Now I have so many more reasons. It took me three sets of therapy and a different assortment of medications and massive life changes to get me better and to where I am now. There IS help out there for people who need it, but I hate the stigma of "man up" or "get over it." Stuff like that doesn't help. Yes I am better than I was 5-6 years ago but I am a long way from being top-ticket. I get bad bouts; ended up in hospital last November because of my anxiety and depression and only recently finished therapy and getting help. I hear you there completely Timmah, it changes you but you can get through it, you and I are living examples that this stuff is possible to get through. The help I got got me through it and taught me so many life lessons that I try to pass on to others when they too are troubled.

I am sure @loaderXI has it saved somewhere. You could also take a look on the redirect? I know Loader and I managed to salvage some really old maps, one of them being Glamorgan - one we both thought was lost.

That explains how bad the server for a few weekends ago, peoples pings were hitting way into the 300's, if not more. I'll let you know if anything like it happens again. Last time it happened I did a server restart; it helped a tiny bit but it came back.

Hello all. This is just a quick update for the TDM server. I have gotten four maps taken out and replaced with (hopefully) better ones! I have also had the deafening sound of Shalkan taken out too, following player feedback. You WILL need to delete your Sn212.iwd and download the updated one from the server otherwise this will cause IWD conflicts.

I hope so, I've been trying to find it as well

They didn't even get the good side of my face, I look horrible! (then again, if my eyebrows looked like caterpillars, I'd be ashamed too!)

If you want good, you go Wacom. There are of course, plenty of other brands out there but with a tablet you really get what you pay for. A small wacom is cheap and should do what you need. I used them for University and I loved them. I am currently using a Ugee, some cheap ass chinese brand. They're not too bad, they do the job but they're not as good as a Wacom. I am looking at getting a Wacom when I can afford it.

You dodged a bullet there for sure mate, I'm glad that you got out of that shitty situation; it could have been worse further down the line. Keep your head up high mate, keep doing your best and kick some ass. You got me on Steam and I'll reinstall ARMA 2 and 3 when I get the chance (got a new SSD so had to reinstall windows) and come chill out on there with ya if you want.

I think he does from his well thought out and constructed argument This post is dripping with sarcasm by the way.

I don't know what on earth you're talking about because I am not showing any greed, nor do I care about pinning some made up man to a piece of wood

They use technology to make everything more streamlined but in reality it really is just not working out for them. It makes everything more complicated and needless.

Can we have a circus tent medal for the ones who are conspiracy theorists and shit spouters? They truly are the laughing stock of this community.

Don't forget we can use correct grammar and punctuation where needed.

It is very bad sportsmanship to bail with a package because you don't want someone to take it. I get ragequitters because they can't handle it and want out but bailing because you don't want your package stolen is just pathetic tbh. Or bitching about someone for their playstyle and constantly being on their case about it.

i've not played Overwatch for aaaages but sadly I don't think we can play togetjer because I'll be on european servers, you'll be on US

Never been one for superstition but I presume they are deep rooted in folklore and fairytale and things like that, it's quite interesting.

The way I see "junk food" is that you can have whatever you want to but only in moderation alongside other healthier foods. I remember a good while ago a man did a show called "supersize me" where he had McDonalds for breakfast, lunch and dinner for a month if I remember correctly. Eat whatever you want, and if it makes you happy, go for it. Can't wait to have my next maccies when I get paid

Looks great! Gonna be following this for sure, do keep the updates coming

the ol' flash-a-mac kinda trench coat?

I seriously can't believe someone is this fucking stupid. What the hell happened to you as a kid?

gee another one for the loony bin.

Cheese goes really well with whine

I'll definitely try it out!
