I voted no not because i hate his server, becuase i think he's got a fine setup.

but there are other servers out there which also would like to be part of the spotlight. not just mine, but the NFo server, and there's a couple other servers out  here people host.

just trying to say the simple word, variety.

PS: sam's server is not bad (i've flown on it, good fps!)
but mine is better Tongue

Then make them all stickies Wink Better to raise awareness of one or two, than none at all!

The only two I know of are yours, Ramos, and Sam's nFo server. Perhaps these can be our main two servers... with stickied posts Grin

The purpose of this server is to have a PERMANENT (static IP)
server online on a fast (150M/Bit), reliable connection to offer
an acceptable ping for people in all parts of the world.
If you have red this topic.. you will know that I even grant
restricted admin access to everyone who wants to organize
events !!

Everyone could open an FSHost on his local machine.. but this means:
People can only fly when you are online.
You´ll always need to communicate the IP to
people who want to fly. The ping times are much higher
for people living further away (other continents).

regards,

sam

ps. If you have a server running on your local machine...
it will of course grant YOU the best possible ping (fps is something completely different).
Keep in mind that you are the only player who can enjoy
this advantage !
pps. no our server is not standing at my home.

Ah I thought not to add anything , but there is just another thing you will have to notice when running a server. Hardware that is being used 24/7 also tends to break. So if you have the money and time to maintain a 99% running system with a reliable uptime, go ahead and do it.

I'd rather let people do that for me that have this as their fulltime job...

i dont use this computer often, im usually on my laptop.

the only reason im a bit restrictive on my rights is becuase there are people out there who will take advantage and start booting people left and right. i cant seem to find a way to keep my admin rights, and give others SA.

cause i give my ATC controllers access to my FSHost server as well.

i have a cable modem, we run 3 servers (mine and 2 work servers) 24/7 so our downtime is minimal.

FPS is directly related to Ping time. people's computers have to send cooridnates to the server and out to the other flyers, this will slow down due to a slow connection (56k for example).

now i give my home network and WAN the best possible uptime, cause i am a certified Network admin (CCNA)

AND, just because the server is not at your house,oes not mean it won't be far from someone. it just means you have to go to a different building to make hardware changes.

Ok.. if it´s all about politics.. than may the force be with you.

Do not confuse this with the server update rate... but hey
you´re not a Mac User ehh ? Wink

yep.. right !!
Go ahead Ramos.. make a reliable 24/7 Server and we can shut down ours... It uses most of our ressources anyway,
costs real money and is quite some work to maintain !!

Sam...
Please don't abandon us, for goodness sake... Cry...!
The Server works admirably with no restrictions... Grin...!

Just a thought tho'....
Is it possible to add two more port addresses in addition to the existing Port 23456....?

23457.
23458.

This would make it similar to the WS Pilots Server, and allow separate, independent  groups to fly without clashing with each other...?

Just a thought...Wink...!
