Re: =HOG= (North America)
This server is a fucking joke.
1 map. Thats it. Want to try a different map? Too bad... Muttrah for everyone, all day, every day, FOR FUCKING EVER! Do they have a secondary server to cater to those people that fucking hate Muttrah City? NO.... you better fucking LOVE this map or you're going to get bored after the first 3 or 4 rounds.
Admins kick chopper pilots even if they are doing a perfectly fine job of flying and some-how get shot down by a BTR or MTLB saying they can't fly.... I can fly you turds, but I CANT FUCKING DODGE BULLETS!
Ever try to win an argument with one of these server admins, even if you are 100% logically right about the situation? It won't happen, because rules can be (mis)interpreted on the fly to suit the admins needs.
Ever make a complete accident....like "OOPS! I dropped my mouse off my desk mid-flight... my bad guys?" and apologize and explain that it was an accident? Doesn't matter, nothing short of gleaming robot-like perfection in your flying will result in a kick... which leads me to my next question, if you don't trust ANYONE to fly your precious choppers, then why not develop a bot script that will ask you which grid reference you want to go to and then have a fucking infallible bot do your transport for you? Why not make them admin-only vehicles?
Every other server I've ever been on makes fun of HOG as the obligatory noob server of Project Reality. CIA, TAR, and even the third-reich imitation clan =]H[=... they all look down on your clan/server as being like the launching pad for noobs into the other servers.
HOG is by far and large one of the worst clans I've ever had the misfortune of dealing with.

Re: =HOG= (North America)
As a MEC, I drove into the restricted US zone on the dox. The gunner shot an aav out in the water. I was banned. The ban said, 'banned for tking or admin...' How long is this type of ban?
Guys, I enjoy the server a lot. I admin for a large company in rl and my job is to sort out lots of complaints. Sounds like the same complaints I read on the forums. Most are when peeps violate rules and then want to complain. Still, if you are interested I could offer some professional expertise. Either way thanks.
Thanks,

Please go to our website for ban appeal. This is NOT the place. You broke our rules, you are a regular player on our server and ought to know the rules.

Re: =HOG= (North America)
For the record. I was not complaining, arguing or disputing at all. I didn't even appeal. I acknowledged the rule breaking and asked what the consequence was for driving into the off limits area is. I asked an informational question, said thanks for a good server and offered help. I tried to go to the forum and have to wait to be accepted. If the ban was for a long time, I would consider appealing since I like to play on the server so much. However, I am not appealing here as per the rules.
Thanks,

All admins are qualified inconsiderate boastful people, no offense but that's it. You ask something politely and get kicked.
Probably the worst server of the whole PR game.

You and your clan mates have been banned from our server for not following the rules, and for Tk an admin. Now you are unbanned, you come into our server and within 2 minutes you are kicked for breaking the rules(again) ??? Dont you learn from your mistakes ???
No offense, but you are the worst kind of player a server can have.

Re: =HOG= (North America)
Ok, so I started playing on =HOG= when I first started PR, and then i switched to hardcore (nothing wrong at the time, just liked the different map variety), and I came back tonight for the first time in 3 or 4 months
No complaints about admins much, but there was so much asshattery from pubbers that I couldn't keep on going!
People were 1 manning mtlb's and btr's, 4 out of my 5 squad members were grabbing special kits and running all over the damn place, ect.
I do like ur server when the teamwork is good, but this first impression from my time off the server made me realize that either the pubbers need to be taught more or certain rules should be enforced more to prevent things like people 1 manning to their doom
DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

If you've got their names, I'm sure you could report them at HOG's forum.

I am sorry that you had an experience like that. The problem right now is, that the BF3 beta got released. I notice that PR servers that usually runs 24/7 is not full all the time. Many PR players is trying it out, including lots of our admins. This also happened when BC2 was released.
The best thing you can do when there ain't an admin online, is to report players in chat and they will be dealt with.
I understand your frustration, but I hope you will play on our server again.

Re: =HOG= (North America)
Wanted to take a second to say how much I like this server. I know alot of people don't like how it's Muttrah 24/7, but I love the map so it's no problem for me. Usually when I logon to PR, I check to see how many ppl are in the server and if it's empty, I'll move on. But if it's populated, I'll stay for awhile. I've played some of my best games and most intense matches here.
Seems like a lot of the same people are on the server and they're all very helpful. I guess my only beef is the lack of mumble usage, but I reckon that's a PR problem in general.
Anyways, thanks for putting up a good server.
Sidenote: I know a lot of folks, don't like the same map 24/7, but I wouldn't mind seeing a server perhaps rotate 2 or 3 maps of the same style. Maybe add Beirut to the mix or something similar.

Re: =HOG= (North America)
Thanks Iron, I enjoy playing on your team alot, The problem of no mumble use lies with the fact that they are still in beta and the community on our server is comfortable with voip. We usually have 15 of 64 players on mumble now But once some more kinks are worked out of Mumble 1.0 and we can get it for everyone on a global patch or something then we will enforce it.
Basically, Hold Fast, and get on to show you support mumble even if no one is in channel!

Thanks Xambone.... What's the deal with ventrillo? Worth downloading or better just to use in-game VOIP and mumble?

Re: =HOG= (North America)
Is there a possibility this server will run anything else than 24/7 Muttrah? It would be nice as it is one of the few north American servers that is populated most of the time.

Re: =HOG= (North America)
Hey HOG guys, I have a question I was going to post in your website's forum, but it seems like your site might be down. I also tried to register on your site, but never got a confirmation email.
Either way, my problem is that when I play I usually play 2-4 games back-to-back. Most of the time, I start as MEC, then when the game is over, everyone joins USMC and I usually get switched back to MEC. I have no problem whatsoever playing as MEC, but I do enjoy playing with the same squad in back-to-back games. Is it frowned upon to switch back to USMC if I get switched to USMC or vice versa? I haven't done it yet because usually I just ragequit. Any advice or thoughts? I know sometimes we just have to deal with the team-balance, but it seems like it happens to me alot.
