I let my admin to do what they want/can, and i dont all other things, like you do for sure 21:15 <+o_be_two> and i do all other things* 21:15 < ImYFU> current ddnet team, doesn't actually feel like a team. 21:15 < ImYFU> just a little observation 21:24 <+o_be_two> ImYFU: what do you think about DDNet ? 21:26 < ImYFU> o_be_two Which part of it specifically? Client/Gamemod/Forum/Community/Staff? 21:27 <@heinrich5991> project? 21:29 <+o_be_two> all ImYFU 21:32 < ImYFU> Well, first of all, I don't really play ddrace, I finished few maps, I sometimes try to play it, but I guess it's not my thing (or I am just bad which is more likely). But I like the gamemode itself, the idea and all the features you can use in map creation, it's all good, I like that. Client is great, although I don't use it, I prefer k-client, because it has some more specific features I need. 2nd message coming 21:35 <+o_be_two> i've tried k-client, its nice but too heavy, its not the mind of DDNet, but i understand that you can like k-client 21:37 < ImYFU> Now the servers, there are many. I even feel like there are too many servers, but I guess I can't really say that, because as I noted I don't really play ddrace. Idea of spreading ddrace worldwide is good, but I personally think, it should not come from DDnet, if Afrikans or Chinease or whoever else wants to have ddrace - let them host it on their own. They want to be in Global Ranking? Let them send you their records and stuff. That's my IMHO keep that in mi 21:39 < ImYFU> Forum, well, it is good, I like it. I've seen better ones, but this one is definitly good. 21:39 <@heinrich5991> your second-to-last message was cut off 21:40 < ImYFU> No, it's fine 21:40 < ImYFU> Just forgot to put a period 21:41 <@heinrich5991> [20:37:18] [...] That's my IMHO keep that in mi 21:42 < ImYFU> Hm, that looks fine to me 21:42 < ImYFU> keep that in mind.^ 21:44 <+o_be_two> not bad suggest about possibility to send rec 21:44 <+o_be_two> cause when you sposorise and keep access to the host, you can get all ddnet pw 21:44 <+o_be_two> (i think, i havent checked, but its just conf files so ..) 21:45 <+o_be_two> but its hard to trust all people 21:45 < ImYFU> Community. Now, I can't say I know the community. I know people, but mostly because of other gamemodes. You can't really say much about this large community, I think it's fine. It's not toxic, like grenade zCatch or fng or block, whatever. 21:45 <+o_be_two> could be easy to fake times 21:45 < ImYFU> perhaps 21:45 <+o_be_two> what you play ImYFU ? 21:45 < ImYFU> zCatch and ictf mostly 21:46 < ImYFU> I don't play much lately, mostly ban bots on zCatch 21:46 < ImYFU> I am from TeeVision zCatch servers 21:47 < ImYFU> What's left? Staff? 21:48 < ImYFU> I am actually part of the team 21:48 < ImYFU> I am a forum moderator 21:48 < ImYFU> Since the start of this week or something 21:48 < ImYFU> It doesn't feel like a team, at all. 21:52 < ImYFU> It needs a better organisation, some kinds of schedules (for testers), and goddamn talk. You see, it appears that some people doesn't like each other. It is stupid, it should be solved, you cannot work efficiently, if someone in a team doesn't like you. 21:54 < ImYFU> Ah, last thing, if ddnet is about to be shut down, I insist on running a global broadcast on servers about that. Majority of ddrace players do not use forum. 21:55 < ImYFU> I guess that's it 21:57 <+o_be_two> ImYFU: you seems to know where you go, you think you can do something to help DDNet to be beautiful again ? 21:58 < ImYFU> I offered the only help I could give - moderating 21:58 <+o_be_two> no time for other things ? 21:59 < ImYFU> I am not a mapper, I tried it few times, but you see the only map that matters is ctf4_old 21:59 <@heinrich5991> spoken like a true instagib player :) 21:59 <+o_be_two> level design is mutch work and/or ideas, i cant do this too 22:00 < ImYFU> I am not a coder, it's the second least understandable language for me after german 22:03 < ImYFU> The only thing I can is banning people, it doesn't take much skill, you just have to be a moderator in guts and 273,16 К in heart 22:06 <@heinrich5991> :) 22:08 < ImYFU> I keed I keed 22:08 <+o_be_two> ImYFU: you can be more, community management is a good skill for moderators 22:09 < ImYFU> Mind to elaborate? Not really sure what "community management" is 22:20 <+o_be_two> hum its communication with the community 22:21 <+o_be_two> the best part si to give a way to the community, to motivate them, to show them the good way for the project, these kind of things 22:21 < ImYFU> Aah 22:21 < ImYFU> Community doesn't care :D 22:21 <+o_be_two> and btw, its to help haters to be less hater, help good players who doesnt participate to community to want to participate 22:22 <+o_be_two> not really, thats why they talk on ddnet forums and tw forums 22:22 < ImYFU> Community is big enough to take care of itself 22:22 < ImYFU> No, forum people is another breed really 22:23 < ImYFU> like, the people who reads they forum are hardly 20% of players 22:23 <+o_be_two> well there's a "link" with players and DDNet to keep alive 22:23 < ImYFU> It always like that, forum people =/= whole community 22:23 <+o_be_two> even if they dont use forum 22:24 <+o_be_two> community management is not only forum, its all kind of communication way, even in game 22:24 <+o_be_two> well it depends on the community 22:24 < ImYFU> ^It depends on its size really 22:25 < ImYFU> The bigger community is - the less it cares about each other 22:25 < ImYFU> !ddnetpeak 22:25 < Nimda> Current players on DDNet : 431 22:25 < Nimda> Current DDNet peak : 810 users online at 2015-04-26 20:11:01 22:25 < ImYFU> 431 players 22:25 < ImYFU> Doesn't look dead to me 22:27 < ImYFU> You know what is dead? idm is dead (loved to play on your servers, laxa), Catch16 is dead, iFreeze is dead, many other gamemodes are dead 22:28 < ImYFU> !ddnetpeak 22:28 < Nimda> Current players on DDNet : 423 22:28 < Nimda> Current DDNet peak : 810 users online at 2015-04-26 20:11:01 22:28 < ImYFU> Hell, even vanilla looks dead from up here 22:28 <+o_be_two> Actually the most played game on TW is DDRace ... 22:28 <+o_be_two> and Blockers. 22:29 < ImYFU> So? How come you say, it's dead 22:30 < ImYFU> It's ALIVE 22:32 < ImYFU> And it won't die 22:32 < ImYFU> Because it's always something different 22:32 < ImYFU> Gameplay changes drasticly from map to map 22:32 < ImYFU> And it's challenging 22:33 < ImYFU> DDrace is fine, it won't die, because community quits 22:34 < ImYFU> Let me say that 22:34 < ImYFU> At least, it will be like vanilla 22:35 < ImYFU> Popularity of ddrace will be stable, people leaving - people joining. 22:36 < ImYFU> ings, you didn't see them 22:38 < laxa> You can't say anything without any numbers to prove your thinking you know ? 22:41 <+o_be_two> but DDNet is the actual engine of DDrace 22:42 < laxa> Everygame looses his player base more or less slowly starting from the last update/content 22:43 < laxa> that's statistically true I guess 22:43 < laxa> look, even old games like diablo 1 have still players 22:43 < laxa> (I am talking about online games) 22:43 < laxa> as far as I am concerned 22:43 < laxa> I have no intention of taking my servers down 22:43 < laxa> even though no one is playing on them 22:44 < ImYFU> <3 diablo 1 22:44 < laxa> People who read forums on ANY game are something like less than 5% of the players, maybe a little bit more if you count the most active members 22:45 < ImYFU> Actually been watching Diablo 2 stream hour ago 22:45 < laxa> diablo 2 streams oO ? 22:45 < ImYFU> y, russian one tho 22:45 < laxa> argh 22:45 < laxa> give me link :) 22:45 < laxa> diablo 2 is dead though since diablo 3 22:45 < laxa> and before, blizzard wasn't caring anymore 22:45 < ImYFU> diablo 3 crap tho 22:45 < laxa> full of bots 22:45 < ImYFU> ^^" 22:45 < laxa> yes I agree 22:45 < laxa> I had some bots myself :( 22:46 < ImYFU> Median XL? 22:46 < laxa> No 22:46 < laxa> I played really actively for some months 22:46 < ImYFU> It's popular tho 22:46 < laxa> chasing dclone was my thing 22:46 < laxa> and trading on jsp 22:47 < laxa> there was IRC channels for dclone hunting 22:47 < laxa> announcing soj sells etc... 22:47 <@heinrich5991> why is botting a problem in d3? 22:47 < ImYFU> ^^ 22:47 < laxa> heinrich5991: we talk about d2 22:47 < laxa> for example 22:47 <@heinrich5991> ah 22:47 < laxa> if you create a public game 22:47 < laxa> bots come instantly to advertise for their website 22:47 <@heinrich5991> [21:45:50] diablo 3 crap tho 22:47 <@heinrich5991> [21:45:52] full of bots 22:47 < laxa> then the game is blocked/bug and no one can join anymore 22:47 <@heinrich5991> I thought this was referred to d3 22:47 < laxa> yeah sorry ^^ 22:47 <@heinrich5991> -was 22:48 < laxa> Well still, d2 was a fun game 22:48 <@heinrich5991> played it a little 22:48 < laxa> But it gets boring really quickly 22:48 <@heinrich5991> the maps were actually randomly generated, unlike d3 22:48 <@heinrich5991> in d3 it's mostly mashing some components together 22:48 < laxa> it's not totally true heinrich5991 22:48 < ImYFU> yeah 22:48 < laxa> maphacks had all maps stocked inside them 22:48 < ImYFU> they rather are predetermined 22:49 < ImYFU> after years of playing you can exactly know where to go 22:49 <@heinrich5991> ImYFU: d2 d3? 22:49 < ImYFU> d2 22:50 < ImYFU> Btw, Median XL is still active and in development, not by Brother Laz tho 22:51 < ImYFU> And they have streams 22:52 < laxa> my friends on TS are all playing Path of Exile lol 22:52 < ImYFU> Path of Exile is good 22:52 < laxa> Never tried 22:53 < laxa> RPGs are boring after a while 22:53 < laxa> Most of them consist of bashing more or less 22:53 < laxa> they all do PVP/PVE seasons to let some challenge 22:53 < ImYFU> I didn't played it all 3 difficultes, but it is good 22:54 < ImYFU> Yeah, it's kinda something people would wait from D3 22:54 < ImYFU> PoE is^ 22:55 < laxa> The game I bashed the most is t4c 22:55 < laxa> if you know :) 22:55 < laxa> Second ever or so mmorpg 22:55 < laxa> was released before 2000 22:56 < laxa> the editor is still selling server licenses and there are some active servers 22:57 < ImYFU> I think the oldest game from my favorites is like ~20 years old 22:58 < ImYFU> lemme see 22:58 < ImYFU> 1996 year 22:58 < ImYFU> game called BLOOD 22:59 <@heinrich5991> oldest game I still play?
