CFs future

    dont worry this are just my thought about what needs to be done... what needs to be changed... and where improvement needs to be done



    1. events
    i barely see them running (at least not the official events)
    dont forget that those were very popular in the past especially for new players which needed the additional money
    imo they need to start again on a regular basis with fixed eventmanagers... fixed times and fixed rules like are written on the CF page


    2. roleplay
    beside the current blockade the rp needs to go on
    i mean the ASF - CSF and also the clan rp
    ppl will need to take the initiative and not wait till things get started by others


    3. clans
    i tell you what i think about the current situation... i dont like it... old clans having probs keeping members together... players leaving the clans to start their own small clans... all this is counter productive for the community interest
    the server does need strong clans and not those small clans which break together just a few weeks later... the server needs strong clans which can defend it... strong clans are needed to rent systems so the server can be paid... strong clans are needed to defend clansystems... and only those strong clans are able to be part of ASF and CSF
    you may have other oppinions about this but i see it from the point of the serveradmin and i also see it from a point where i can say "i dont like clanjumpers"


    4. flshell/flhook
    with the new server we lost many good features and they are missed badly... so this is a problem which need to be solved soon
    FLhook offers a way to recode the flshell features... i have the source code of the latest version and it should be possible to add those features in my eyes (even if i dont have the skills)
    if we get this running the ASF/CSF roleplay will be running automatically and get a massive boost (coz i think the only thing that hold players back doing the rp is the manual score counting)
    additionally we would be able to get the pvp stats back running again


    5. CF 1.63
    well i did not release much info on this and i will not do that now
    all i can say is that i want to do this step to 1.63 instead of 1.7 to introduce some revolutionally features which will change the gameplay in a heavy way
    additionally to this there are going to be some minor bugfixes
    what you can expect is a CF that is more dynamical, more flexible... maybe even with less lag
    i cant give you a release date because i dont know how far the development on an important part of the mod is... and im also not finished with everything new
    all i can say is that you will be informed and that the mod will come as an update which will overwrite CF1.62


    6. one last thing i have to add to the roleplay
    imo all these discussion about rp have to stop here on the forum
    all these stupid threads where ppl think they have to tell the community that they feel treated bad because they lost money or such a shit have to stop
    you cant expect action without to fight
    you cant expect roleplay without to loose
    if something is against the serverrules then you can come to ME and complain about it... but everything else is just normal rp

    Very good points.
    Most important thing is to have a good talk, and serious, with clan leaders about this matters. So they can make commitments about those points and administrate their clans to get to the goals.

    Can two walk together, except they be agreed?

    OP has laid out a nice outline of what needs to happen. I would think that meetings could help as well on occassion. Getting the clan members to report things to their leaders and then having the leaders bring things to the table would be productive and might dent the whining problem here on the forum to some extent (or are these meetings already held? 'O.=.o'). Looking forward to 1.63 is nice too, but let's start praying that nobody utters the "c" word :O.

    I agree with all points, especially with the server clan thing. I can't say nothing for the other clans, but i worked hard the free time i have to create a small comunity inside my own clan, and i'm quite shure the other clan leaders did too. And it's quite disapointing to see members getting upset because of trouble beeing created by some people.


    Some can say this is just for fun, and we shouldn't worry much about problems. But at least not for me, i created something i that i hope will be professional in the future, and i dedicate time and work in achieving that goal. But i can't do this alone, and a lot of my fellow UAC members are worried about, and reluctant to recruit because of recent fake chars.



    When these fake chars were ppl i knew, it was easy for me to do something about alone since i could (and did), reason with them and everything went ok. But right now, i don't know who these guys are, and they are creating problems that SP's can't solve efficiently on their own.


    If you see something suspectfull, like names that were never seen, using multiple tags, names using both tagged and untagged characters, report to any SP online.

    rock on, once i get moved in my apartment, i hope to have more time to kill with FL. :P
    also, is there a thread about 1.63 changes, somewhere? if not, id love to hear of the 'revolutionary' changes, sounds cool. Anyway, if not, and you dont have time, op, its all good, i technically dont have time now to read about it. :)

    ps. as i have observed this community and those whom have the greatest infulence, op, gunny, others, like the old vets, since my past issues with things here... I wish you all to know, that the problems i had with some of yalls actions and whatnot, are long gone, i cannot believe the difference. Op in MY opinion seems to be quite the uber nice guy nowadays. I once...twice, whatever the number of times, which i deemed him a you know what, i regret, while looking back i disagreed, and much of the issues hold my beliefs still, i see their irrellevance at this point, anyway, keep up the great work!


    OP: i know that you have real human emotion, and i know i at least pissed you off, if not more, i am sorry, ive said it before, but yeah, i hate to hurt, and i hurt the community some, but im sure it hurt you to see me and the like 12 others so passionate about defying your work. anyway, like i said up top, ROCK ON!
    peace

    Good post op. Accurate synopsis of real server events and what needs to be done.
    GK is here to help :)
    @BG members - sorry to go off topic but I would like to apologise for the misunderstanding right now between our clans :)

    can we keep the spam in the offtopic section?


    i hate it when i want to read an important thread because someone replied to it.


    And then the only thing there is
    "yes you are right"
    "i think so too"
    ...
    ...
    "let me kill your ass too"



    give your opinion with usefull statements


    thanks for reading :P

    I'm glad that we'll all holding hands and spamming together now... but would someone care to get back on topic? :D

    May we start a thread for making 1.63 suggestions OP and then intimidate the noobs so they don't spam, or should we all assume that everything we'd like to see happen has been considered?

    Nice, Marc... [12]


    So you are suggesting that if we don't try to use double the text to explain why we agree with OP's concise description, we are puppets? OP said all that was needed, we are only offering our support. It occurs to me that you are part of the spamming problem, rather than part of the solution, since you neither offered any "opinion with usefull statements", nor offered your support...[694]

    I would like to see some of the events held on Saturdays or Sundays. Perhaps 2 different events can be held on the same day. I for one can't participate during the weekdays because of work. Most of the events sound like fun.

    There is now a thread for suggestions regarding 1.63 and/or the distantly off 1.7 if anyone is interested :D.


    (btw, I think events are due for some major overhauls. turnout and interest hasn't been particualrly high it seems)
