So last days server so often full and hard to join. Sometimes cant join for 30-40 min.
But i see ever 3-6 player are spectator. If admin/member around there pls kick them for free slot's if server full.

Usually these ppl use private slots what dont affect u in any way. Private slots are for casual members etc and are separate from usual server slots. Hope u understand :wink:

Tip: Download Xfire and add some regular members from ps1 to your friendlist.

When members overlook that server is full, you can easily notify them so they can make a slot free

hmm private slot for regulars with xp over 300'000? :idea:

by **GokuSan** » Thu Jan 21, 2010 20:10

Come to PS2!

But tbh, I think if there are any members/admins online, that they do as they can to kick the specs.. That's what Lady does though..

Kicking spectators when server is full is what we already usually do, it can happen sometimes that we are ingame and we don't notice it, so the best way is to teel us something as said by smadje, or you can join and enjoy our others wanderful servers PS2 PS3 and PS5, you won't regret it! :wink:

It's hard keep server without specs, because people all the time go to spec and back to game and around. Like Oxy said we have 3 other servers where you can play

private slots are only for members . Doesnt matter if you have 900.000 xp. Actually in ps1, you have 36 public slots + 12 private slots (like i said before only for members). How you can see when someone is using private slots?? put in the console /players and you will see who is using the private slots , with the numbers 0 to 11

i know it's for members ^^ was only a joke

i can wait for my place to play

Yes i know. And who kick peeps when only 2 min remaining from map.
But i mean when i see on xfire that some player is sitting in sepc for ages.
For me its ok if some 1 is go to toilet or smoke a cig get drink etc...

by **Scuba_Steve** » Fri Jan 22, 2010 9:52

To be honest i think 12 private slots is too much,

by **Greg** » Fri Jan 22, 2010 12:41

Hello everyone. The fact that the server is a large part of the time full is vry good

.
This shows that he is very popular.

But I will not conceal that often, especially in the afternoon and evening, connection to the server requires a lot of time.

I think this is a good idea what said Smadje. It works pretty well.

Frequent kick of spec is not very good because players often go just for a moment, for example, a cigarette or to the toilet. :oops:

Timidly suggest that perhaps two of the private slots to replace the public :?:

Simply do not remember ever having all the private slots were occupied.

Its only small idea :idea:

Your first point: When the server is full, and people want to go to toilet/cigaret the best way is just to inform us that your right back. Never kicked people who did this. Besides this, admins also have a look or someone just connected or he is already for a long time in spectator.

About your second point.
In the past we had 42 slots + 4 private slots. SInce the server is often full it was quite laggy, Bowdown decided to lower the amount off public slots to 36.
For members he made more private slots in case there is a need for, they are not meant to be always full.

EDIT: Kewl i have 911 posts

by **Scuba_Steve** » Fri Jan 22, 2010 13:36

Okay, well a full server does have it's positve sides. Some people can get redirected to PS#2. Which is a good thing for the population of PS#2, So maybe that's not much of a problem after all.

@Smadje: Wrong, u have 991 posts. ^^

by **BlackKiller** » Fri Jan 22, 2010 14:20

I believe you get redirected to ps#3 if I'm correct.

Well , about redirection stories i had a kind of compromise with Icy and Ninja to change the redirection from PS2 to PS3 and vice versa periodically , now that PS3 is on a good way to be crowded again, all our attention have to be concentrated on PS2 so the redirection to PS2 will stay.

About adding more slots, it s pretty out of the question atm, since PS1 is a big server it also need big maps which are for the major part of them laggy, added to the amount of players we host every day (+ PS3 players), the server can become realy unplayable, that s why i reduced the slot numbers some months ago and i will keep this number. And honestly having 2 more or less slots wont realy fix the problem :wink:

.

Looking to the number of members who usualy play on server, having 12 slots is not realy an anomaly, sure we rarly use all of them but reducing them to 10 or 8 wont fix the "free slots" neither.

So, we will keep kicking those who spend their time on spec. You can go to toilet or having a little break to smoke, kiss da gf etc ... which is normal but you have to inform the server staff and try to make it short, if not don t be surprised to see a kick message when you come back after 30 minutes when you did n t informed us or replied back on our warns :wink:

Hmmm if im right there are setting for inactivity as spec.
I mean if ur inactive for 10 min than server auto kick u.

U can stay in spec as long as u want, as long server isnt full.
This system quite sucks, it would be better that it will kick peeps for a certain time they stay at spec if server is full.

Example:

Server not full - specs on spec, no kicks.
Server full, - 3 mins (just example) as spec -> kick.

On mods like Pub it is working, but i didn't read same related to nQ.

So maybe just let it like it is and !kick specs in the oldskool way.

There is a server command to placed in cfg about spectate inactivity.

we are using now when you are in team and you will be afk for serval minutes you get switched to specatator.

aight: i dont see a relate to change 1 setting coz "a player" and yes thats you.
cant join server coz its full

we all understand that and even u ps1 is crowed each day.
and most people spend their times there, nothing wrong with but.
when server is full would be also a very good thing that people switch to other server from us. visit them once

and try in few minutes later (i should do) to enter ps1 as example.

Also like bowdown said lower private slot doesnt solve the problem.
or adding more slots, coz more slot more players and server get still full

and smadje's idea issnt bad at all xfire is free program you can use it ingame chat with ps members admins or even other people who you have good game relation with by playing together, but xfire is a nice program and good idea to use to awarness (members,admin) to have look to spec and kick afks.

and if thats an idea you should choose.
you are free to add my xfire: prolite2006
and i will join server in prvt slot to have a look for you eighter some1 els.
