I mentioned the possibility of this in one of the gamer sub threads but I thought it best to make a seperate post about it, so that those that missed the thread would get a chance to have some imput.

Anyways I mentioned in that thread that I was considering setting up a game server for the CM community. Free of course. I already got messages from a couple of people from that thread that expressed interest and so I am wondering how many others are also interested in such a server. The basic info is that its a Meridian59 server, first person Doom-ish 3D, pvp oriented and system requirements aren't worth posting because I doubt theres computer still in existance that would not run it. All anybody would need is to download the client (70mb) and an account. I would provide the client and do most of the major admin work myself, though as there is support for 'lower' admin accounts i'd be happy to include CM members as administrators and to run events. I'd also consider a UO server as well.

I just thought it would make for an interesting addition to the community as many people use it as a virtual chatroom as well. Given that theres an internal email, message board and private messaging system I suppose thats not suprising. Theres also support for guilds, buyable guildhalls, wars, tournaments, events, special colored items/skin/hair/etc.. and all that fun stuff. I've also got screenshots from my test server if anyones interested in seeing what it looks like. Too large to post in this message unfortunately.

So, if enough people are interested i'll set it up and write up a help guide for it.

Meeeeeeeeeeeee! There is rp on this game, right? It's not just all kill 'em all? Not that I can't hack n' slash and frag and love it, but I'm an rp girl at heart.

It's an mmo, sorta kinda like an early guildwars.

Though if anyone plays over at shards of dalaya hit me up. Retired my characters there, but I can help twink out some people.

Its not a shoot em up. Just first person. I'll post some pics in my profile once i'm finished getting the bugs out of the test server.
Hard bosses....yes... Quite a few actually and lots of trolls lol

Yes it is.

Hmm maybe that wasn't the best way to put it... What I mean is it has a first person perspective like Doom did and is player-vs-player oriented.

It'll be a couple of weeks before its up and running. Theres a couple technical bugs i've got to work out of the server before its playable.

Just an update...I've been working on a few glitches in the server and it should be up and running by January 1st. I'll have a downloadable client and some kind of basic info file available for it soon.

That being said it may be a good idea to PM me with the username/password you want so I can have everybodys account working when the server goes up.

Then turn off the computer and play D&D with people face to face...nothing beats it. Its kept me happy, entertained, engrossed & fascinated for over 30 years.
