Donate Server to PR Community

NoLimitSoIdier · Post by **NoLimitSoIdier** » 2007-07-18 21:25

I have a **** load (20+) of extra servers at work and was going to set one up to be donated to PR for having played for so long.

It will be a dual dual core(yes 4 cores) 3.4 and 4 gig ram windows 2003 server on a 15mbit/15mbit frac. DS3 connection.

Only thing is i really dont have the time to do the research to set it up (what little time i have is spent trying out .6)

So can some one set it up if i setup a remote desktop connection to it or provide details on getting it setup so that i could do it quickly?

I'm thinking of public admins , just people who play on it alot, as I wont have enough time. No crappy maps, and hopefully english only but i understand that may be pushing it.

Thats awesome, we'd love to see more community run servers.

May I ask where the server is physically located?

I can do so.

I have an active clan that can act as admins and know a good deal about server setup. The clan is focused on staying true to the heart of PR, tactical squad combat, and I feel would make good admins. I would love to work with you on this. Contact me on xfire @ ratlover232 or pm me for more details.

Thanks for the offer, i may take you up on that.

However, this server can't be tied to any clan what so ever. This is for PR.

Ah, ok.
Wasn't really suggesting that we called it our or use it as a clan server, just that there are a lot of active and involved players who could admin in my group. Sorry if that was misunderstood. With that cleard up, I would be happy to help you set up the server.

You should give admin to all the dev's =P Also, I may know a guy who can help set it up unless you already have someone.

Rat's good at the set up, there's a group of us that play together all the time. Built in admins. Been playing PR for quite some time and we don't allow any monkey business. I'd be able to admin almost every night. Certainly wouldn't call it a clan server, to much baggage with that.

It would be great to have another Devfile like community server
('devfile like' : Community admins and map rotation)

Devfile like server ftw...
Just dont put Basrah in the rotation

Rat knows what he is doing. I would also be more than happy to help you administer order in your server NoLimitSoldier. It would be really nice to have another server that's dedicated to keeping the game play how it's meant to be played with PR.

Actually I think it would be cool to have an official pr server run by the devs (and their minions of course).

would love to have an R-DEV server, would be much appreciated

Post by **IronTaxi** » 2007-07-19 00:22

actually. for all you relatively new folk out there, there used to be a DEV run server called Gloryhoundz.....that is until our server files for PR got so big we had to use the game server as a storage server...the death of classic PR IMHO...

I must admint TG and a few other servers have done a very nice job of filling the hole...much appreciated....

Post by **TheRealFritz** » 2007-07-19 02:43

If you can send me the details, I'll set it up. This offer is much appreciated.

Very nice offer

If its alright with the DEV's, i dont mind it being the offical PR server. Do what you want with it.

And dont worry about space, i believe its on a 300gig raid5 setup.

I'll provide information tommarow morning (IP,login/pass), warning however this is on my work network along side of our production servers, so i will be watching.

I"ll put it on its own VLAN later.

What ports need to be opened? I'll open 3389 for RDP but i dont know what ports the BF2 server needs.
