That is an option, but doesnt really acheive the goal i "hope " would be reached. Some of my better relations on the server are with those who helped me or grew in lvls side by side with me, when i was the one who needed the help, and before alot of people started getting annoyed by new players. Alot of the new players now seem to think they are owed help by the higher ups, and some(not all) have serious begging issues. The flip side is alot of the higher player think(and for some, rightly so) that they can handle the map without the lower players(except maybe 1 or 2 to keep the levels under control). I could be wrong, but if everyone was made low level again, then maybe as everyone is leveling together again, and are forced to share pu's to have any hope of a map win(since alot of people seem to think we should win EVERY MAP....where is the fun in that?)sure, eventually we are all high level again, but then atleast decent relations would be formed and maybe bridge the gap a little. granted i wont see the server again for another 3 months still, it looks like the community is slowly diminishing, and those that i grew with are slowly leaving or atleast severly limiting their time on the server. I realize there is nothing in place to verify honesty, but if the poll is correct, then the higher ups seem to agree in general, and even a majority of the lowers. Maybe something moer official could be arranged, i dunno...i just hope i have a decent server(and a few friends) to come back to in september.

It's a never ending cycle. Players will stay and gain levels, and more n00bs will show up and nag/beg/whine/cry/etc etc no matter how many times the levels are reset.

So why piss of those that have been around awhile by forcing them to start over?

Actually I will admit that I have been one of the open people to disliking the new people. I'm not agaisnt them asking how this and that works. Its the crying for the SSR or super weapons that they cry for. Yeah Knave, Mainstrain and I grew on the server and did have Help from M3rc and a few others that aren't on the server anymore. I have tossed a loaded gun to all of them because they joined late or something happend that made them lose there weapon. But they have done that for me also.

My next issue with the new people is they think this server is a swapmeat. I got a (blank) power up that I'll trade for a (blank) power up. That to me is BS.
Third- Summoned weapons and someone take a summon and gets a better weapon. They keep the other weapon and slap a deniel on it. That is BS also.

Knave at one point in time I would of said your idea would of worked. But the TEAM affect on my second and third point can't be changed.

Man I do wish you were around to see the new server. its sweet even though its not done.
Later all!

are you running it from the batch file in the deathball folder? if you are trying to connect to a db server through UT, it doesn't work. there's a batch file called PlayDeathball.bat in the /deathball dir. give it a try. :hwsb2:

No offense Drae but your posts are quite a bit too long and i gave up a long time ago reading all of them.
