server death

[matter11]

If it's not hackers then it's people with over 200 ping. more people need to have access to ban/kick and voteban/votekick needs to be added back on the servers asap.

[Vongore]

I agree with the hackers, but as for the new kids with 200+ ping (ahem) let them play, the novelty will run out after a couple weeks, and if it doesn't, at least they'll know how to play

[KarthXLR]

This is what happens with F2P games, especially less than a week after the release to the public. Give it a month's time, it'll dissipate.

Hackers -> Message an Admin, we have lots of them

High Ping -> Kicking or banning people because of this sets a bad precedent, we wouldn't have people like Vongore around if we booted high pingers (<3 you Vongore)


Vote kick/ban are disabled for a very good reason

This list isn't even up to date, but message me at anytime and i can get in. usually not too busy and online most of the time.

EDIT: anyone who joined the community after 2008 probably wont have me in their friends list, but i'll accept any friend requests from people in the the BRBU steam community if i haven't seen you on the forums.

Yea I need to go into the file and see who has admin, actually a fair amount of those people are still around

[Versus]

yeah that list is super old

When I was on blue earlier today half the people had over 200 ping. so many people were popping around that I asked them to find a new server and make everyone happy but they wouldn't.

Why should they? Were they hacking? Breaking the rules?

If you're really that bothered by it, just leave. Our admins aren't going to kick or ban people solely for having a high latency.

They're trying to make the best with what they have. For all you know, they're in the same situation as Vongore, being on a different part of the planet. Maybe they didn't fully choose their situation, so why fault them for it? And maybe these are people who can be valuable members of the community, too. We can always use good people to regularly hang around.

Depending on the day, my ping could be 200+ and I live in the States, fercrissake.  Ping isn't the issue.  Just roll them a few times and they'll leave.  Or they'll get better and you'll leave.  ;D

That.

And Blue has issues even when everyone has normal ping.

Not everyone there has kick powers though, do they? I don't believe I do. As far I know, anyway.

[Kirby]

They do indeed have kick.

I find it somewhat odd they can't find a server with better ping, my bet is they didn't filter for good ping. I was under the impression they were causing the problems on blue. so why hasn't blue been fixed?

You can't fix a company you don't own.

does blue not use the same provider as red?

I've only seen red get all laggy from the ddos once. Is it still happening nowadays?
