PostSubject: The Terminative 3 Situation atm (31-10-09) (updated)   Wed Sep 30, 2009 8:45 pm

Hello everyone,

I've had some people asking me a lot about the server offline-ness and all, so I'll update you all quickly on that. At the moment we haven't got a home server (it's down due to people not making use of the t3 (training) services. As a replacement I made a special Elite program which will start this Friday (only for people who applied and have access to the elite-forums). This program is only for the really dedicated and motivated players (not for 'incidental teachings'). So, further the Public and Guardians server and teamspeak are officially still up. We however found something like 'a bug' on the servers which causes the t3home2 map to be messed up with the NPC scripts. It looks like it's our anti-crash protection, which is causing the scripts to fail (on the t3home2 map). We're at the moment checking with the server host if that really is the problem. If it indeed turns out to be the problem, then we'll probably change the Guardians server to some sort of an home server or at least a server-setup without! the anti-crash (passworded maybe) so that we can fully use the t3home2 map. We'll leave the public server always with the anti-crash protection of course. At the moment we're trying to contact the host about all this, but they're terribly slow and stupid so therefore it takes ages (not our fault). The host situation btw also hold us back from finding more ''complicated'' fixes (which are easily realized in our opinion). Anyhow, both the ventrilo servers are still online and also the IRC etc. We've further also got the possibility to use the GrimClaw family server (in case it's really needed). As for the gametrackers, I've put some other servers in there (to promote other communities) so that it won't look too empty.

At the moment tł isn't accepting new applications. We've dealt (or will later deal) with the old and still active applications. The only way people can get in at the moment is by showing SO much acitvity and loyalness that we put them in directly (management overrules). Also the Guardians and JkS closed their applications / servers. Further the tł services are not active until we get more people to lead all the different aspects (we have a lot of potential, but not enough people). As a replacement for the diehard players, I've created the Elite program and further we're also working on the servers (home server and teamspeak also down because of the lack of leads, not productive). The terminative 3 website will of course stay and we'll gather via xfire and on IRC / servers etc. We'll always hang around here of course (untill the end). However, everyone also has their social life, so we can't be that active as we maybe were in the past (I personally think we could have been MUCH more active). Anyhow, as a side note. This website is hosted by a free forum service as you can see (forumotion) so if this website happens to crash or w/e and we loose all contact. Therefore it might be useful to be in the x-fire groups (not all of you use x-fire).

Alright, that's all I had to say about the situation atm.
Peace out, Hugo ::loveit::

Guardians Server & Ventrilo is back online: 80.249.173.121:29076

We're still working on getting that server bug fixed though.
Home server will probably permanently stay offline.

(2 servers is more than enough atm, since we only accept new people directly atm, instead of applications).

Hello everyone,

Servers fixed & current situation:

Thanks to Malak we found the source of the 'bug' on our servers. It indeed was the 'anti-crash' protection, causing to block the NPC scripts on the t3home2 map. At the moment the Public Server is back online (+ ventrilo), it is still anti-crash protected (and it will stay that way). The Guardians Server will now become the tł Home Server (for trainings / hanging out). This means that the Guardians are inactive! atm. Our original home server will stay offline (so we'll stick with 2 servers and 2 ventrilo servers). The original Home Server was always protected with a password (tł members only). However, due to inactivity and the applications being closed atm. I've decided to keep the server open for everyone who wants to use the t3home2 map (as that map became public anyhow). If we need the server for tł only projects or things such as the Elite Program, we'll temporarily password it of course.

About applications:

At the moment people can not apply for the tł community. However, if they play a lot on our servers, seem to fit in and are motivated / loyal to the tł community and forums / website / xfire / IRC. Then the management can directly accept people (can be because of various reasons). We will always keep the joining requirements in mind of course. If you have problems with someone being directly accepted into the tł community. Then you can always complain in the 'suggestions & complaints' forum. Further you can always contact us (the management) of course.

The Elite Program:

The people who applied for the Elite Program can view a special forum about it. However, I'd like to say that from now on the Home Server will be used (each Friday; 19:30 WET) to train / teach on. The server will be passworded and only Elite Program members may enter (or people I might need). It's not going to be an open training for everyone to watch etc.

Future & activity:

We're at the moment still searching / waiting for more people to show up who would like to lead things in tł / gł / jKs (and can be very active). As long as we haven't build up a strong management / members core. We'll stay closed and the tł services will be offline. We of course hope that you will all stick around here and play on the servers / traing / teach each other and have fun. The management isn't that active (me, Malak, LoK & Kronos) at the moment, but I'm sure we'll be able to lead more in the future.

Stick with us until the end! Greetz,

- Hugo
