Which Server?
« on: January 19, 2009, 10:35:42 pm »
Now the BIG question is....
which server will you play on?

If you say 'both'.....
which one will you spend most of your time playing on?

Then the final questions.....
Will you role play on both servers?
Will you level on both servers?

Laanx. On the Talad server I'll just test and do silly things.

I call it Talad because it's the logical name as the first server was named Laanx. We don't refer to the first server with "Fragnetics" a lot, so why would we refer to the second as ezpcusa. Try to pronounce the word. And you might notice practically nobody gets the spelling right, not even devs :P

I imagine in the future there might be servers called Dakkru, Xiosia, etc.

well in the official servers.xml it is not named talad so to keep from confusing people it is best to not call it talad.

Code: [Select]
<serverlist>

<server name="Fragnetics (RP)" ip="laanx.fragnetics.com" port="7777" />

<server name="Ezpcusa (Non-RP)" ip="planeshift.ezpcusa.com" port="7777" />

</serverlist>

Laanx. Maybe. The connection to "Talad" feels so much more solid though...

I'd pronounce it esp-sus-a with the emphasis on the second syllable. Of course I'm not here, I'm there so I should ignore this thread....

I will mostly play Laanx, and sometimes visit the other server.

I will roleplay and do some leveling on Laanx.

On Ezpc I will be random and level a bit :)

Laanx.  Talad isn't a real server.

Besides, PlaneShift is fun because of the community.  There's no community on Talad.

Then again, maybe a year from now Talad will have an average of 200 people online at any given time...

Zanzibar... have you actually been on the new server, or are you just running your mouth again? People have been much friendlier on the new server than I have seen on Laanx in several months. People have actually come up and greeted me and started chatting randomly on the new server (which also didn't happen on laanx often). Just like I expected to happen, there isn't so much stress on people to "RP correctly" that people are trying to start a conversation to build a community. This is good. Do not sit here on the forums and badmouth the new server please.

Yes, I've been on the new server.  Yes, you are replying to everything I post and disagreeing with me no matter what position I take.  No, I didn't say the things you say I'm saying.

What did I ignore? You said the new server isn't a "real server"... PS is fun because of the community... there is no community on the new server. You are a semi-intelligent person... tell me again what you were trying to say that I missed?

I didn't say you missed anything.  I said that you're putting words in my mouth.  You either saw things that aren't there, or you're purposely misrepresenting my posts.

Why the hell are you guys calling the second server Talad?  Laanx is the name of the first server, Talad the name of the founder, and Vodul the name of some IRC bot that josePhoenix wrote.  If the second server is called EZ-PC then that's what it's called.

And to answer the OP, I plan on playing both of them but to spend the majority of my time on Fragnetics.  With <Banker>, I can make fun of the EZ-PC community whenever I feel like it.

But Tuxie, you make up half the community all by yourself, Do you really like to make fun of yourself that much?
